White LED Charge Pump with
1.1W Audio Amplifier
The MAX8678 integrates a charge pump for white lightemitting diodes (LEDs) with an audio loudspeaker
amplifier. The high-efficiency, adaptive charge pump
drives up to four LEDs with constant current for uniform
brightness. The LED current is adjustable from
0.1mA/LED to 24mA/LED in 31 pseudo-logarithmic
steps through a single-wire serial-pulse interface. High
accuracy and LED-to-LED current matching are maintained throughout the adjustment range. Individual
adaptive mode switching for each LED provides high
efficiency with a wide range of LED forward voltages.
The mono class AB audio amplifier directly drives an 8Ω
loudspeaker with 1.1W RMS continuous power from a 5V
supply with less than 1% THD+N. The gain is adjustable
from -9dB to +18dB in ten 3dB steps through a singlewire serial-pulse interface. Clicks and pops are suppressed during on/off and all gain adjustments.
Differential inputs improve common-mode noise rejection.
The MAX8678 includes soft-start, thermal shutdown,
open-circuit and short-circuit protection, and is available in the 16-pin, 3mm x 3mm Thin QFN package
(0.8mm max height).

Detailed Description
The MAX8678 integrates a charge pump for white LEDs
with an audio loudspeaker amplifier. The high-efficiency,
adaptive charge pump drives up to four LEDs with constant current for uniform brightness for display backlighting or camera flash. The LED current is adjustable
from 0.1mA/LED to 24mA/LED in 31 pseudo-logarithmic
steps through a single-wire serial-pulse interface. High
accuracy and LED-to-LED current matching are maintained throughout the adjustment range. Figure 1 is the
MAX8678 functional diagram.
The mono class AB audio amplifier directly drives an 8Ω
loudspeaker with 1.1W RMS continuous power from a 5V
supply with less than 1% THD+N. The gain is adjustable
from -9dB to +18dB in ten 3dB steps through a singlewire serial-pulse interface. Clicks and pops are suppressed during on/off and all gain adjustments.
Differential inputs improve common-mode noise rejection.
Shutdown
To reduce power consumption when not in use, the
charge-pump LED driver and the audio amplifier have
separate shutdown controls. To disable the LED driver,
drive ENLED low for at least 3.2ms. To disable the
audio amplifier, drive ENAMP low for at least 3.2ms.
When both ENLED and ENAMP are held low, the IC
supply current is reduced to about 0.1µA.
Thermal-Overload Protection
The thermal-overload protection circuitry monitors the
temperature of the IC. When the die temperature reaches +160°C, the IC is shut down. The IC turns on after it
has cooled by approximately 20°C. During continuous
overload conditions, this results in a pulsed output.

Table 1. Internal PWM Duty Cycle vs. LED
Set Current
The charge pump drives up to four white LEDs with
regulated constant current for displaying backlight
applications. By utilizing an adaptive charge pump and
extremely low-dropout current regulators, it achieves
high efficiency over the full 1-cell lithium ion (Li+) battery input-voltage range. Fixed frequency of 1MHz
switching allows for tiny external components. The regulation scheme is optimized to ensure low EMI and low
input ripple.
Adaptive Charge-Pump Modes
When the supply voltage is sufficient to drive the LEDs,
the charge pump is turned off to minimize the input
supply current and the LED currents are linearly regulated. When the supply voltage is insufficient to drive
the LEDs at the set current, the charge pump is
enabled, creating a negative voltage at NEG and allowing the LED_ outputs to pull below ground to maintain
the set LED current.
Soft-Start and Shutdown
The MAX8678 LED driver features a low-power shutdown mode for reduced current consumption. Hold
ENLED low for 3.2ms to enter shutdown mode. This disables the charge pump and the LED current drivers.
When initially powering the MAX8678, or when starting
up from shutdown mode, a soft-start feature prevents
input current overshoot. See the startup waveforms in
the Typical Operating Characteristics section.

Serial-Pulse Dimming Control (ENLED)
The MAX8678 includes a serial-pulse logic interface for
on/off and dimming of the backlight. The dimming
range is pseudo-logarithmic from 24mA to 0.1mA in 31
steps. Driving ENLED high turns on the IC and sets the
internal register to 24.0mA. To dim the MAX8678, pulse
ENLED low (500ns to 500µs pulse width). Each rising
edge sets the LED current setting as shown in Table 2.
Once the desired setting is reached, hold ENLED high
for at least 3.2ms to set the internal register and the
LED current changes. To set a new current level, repeat
the previous sequence from the beginning.
To turn off the LEDs, hold ENLED low for at least 3.2ms.
Figure 2 shows a timing diagram for ENLED.
If dimming control is not required, ENLED works as a
simple on/off logic control. Drive ENLED high for at
least 3.2ms to enable the LEDs, or drive ENLED low for
at least 3.2ms for shutdown. The LED driver operates at
100% brightness under or OFF under these conditions.
Low LED Current Levels
The MAX8678 internally generates a PWM signal to
obtain higher resolution at lower currents. As the ILED
setting is below 6.4mA, the IC adjusts ILED DC current,
and the duty cycle is controlled by the PWM signal. The
frequency of the PWM dimming signal is set at 1kHz
with a minimum duty cycle of 1/16 to avoid the LED
flicking effect to human eyes. Table 1 shows the current
level and the corresponding duty cycle.

The MAX8678 contains a 1.1W RMS DirectDrive mono
speaker amplifier. It features a low-power shutdown
mode and click-and-pop suppression.
Bias
An internally generated common-mode BIAS voltage of
VIN / 2 sets the DC bias level for the audio outputs. The
BIAS capacitor (C4 in Figure 1) improves PSRR and
THD+N by reducing power supply and other noise
sources at the common-mode bias node, and also
generates the clickless/popless startup DC bias waveform for the speaker amplifier. A 0.1µF BIAS capacitor
is recommended for most applications. Increasing C4
to 1µF slows turn-on and turn-off times by a factor of 10
and improves PSRR by 20dB (at 1kHz). Do not connect
external loads to BIAS.
Shutdown Mode
The MAX8678 audio amplifier features a low-power shutdown mode for reduced current consumption. Hold
ENAMP low for 3.2ms to shut down the audio amplifier.
Entering shutdown disables the amplifier’s bias circuitry,
causes the audio outputs to go high impedance, and
drives BIAS to GND.
Click-and-Pop Suppression
The MAX8678 features Maxim’s industry-leading clickand-pop suppression circuitry. During startup, the amplifier common-mode bias voltage ramps to the DC bias
point. When entering shutdown, the amplifier outputs are
high impedance to 100kΩ between the outputs. This
scheme minimizes the energy present in the audio band.
Open-Circuit and Short-Circuit Protection
The short-circuit protection detects when an LED is
shorted and disables the corresponding current regulator to avoid wasting battery power. If any LED fails as an
open circuit, the charge pump is forced on and the corresponding LED_ pin is internally connected to NEG.

Serial-Pulse Gain Adjustment (ENAMP)
The audio amplifier has an internal gain adjustment,
controlled by a serial-pulse interface. The gain setting
of the input amplifier is adjustable from -9dB to +18dB
in 3dB steps. This allows the amplifier to be used for
both hands-free and for receiver mode, without any
external components.
Driving ENAMP high turns on the amplifier and sets the
internal register to -9dB. Adjust the gain by pulsing
ENAMP low (500ns to 500µs pulse width). Each rising
edge sets the gain as shown in Table 3. Once the
desired setting is reached, hold ENAMP high for at
least 3.2ms to set the internal register and change the
gain. To set a new current level, repeat the previous
sequence from the beginning. To shut down the amplifier, hold ENAMP low for at least 3.2ms. Figure 3 is a
timing diagram for ENAMP.

Applications Information
Since the differential outputs are biased at midsupply,
there is no net DC voltage across the load. This eliminates the need for DC-blocking capacitors required for
single-ended amplifiers. These capacitors can be
large, expensive, consume board space, and degrade
low-frequency performance.
BTL Amplifier
The MAX8678 is designed to drive a load differentially,
a configuration referred to as bridge-tied load (BTL).
The BTL configuration offers advantages over the single-ended configuration, where one side of the load is
connected to ground. Driving the load differentially
doubles the output voltage, thus quadrupling output
power compared to a single-ended amplifier under
similar configurations.

2π × RIN × CIN
where RIN is the input impedance given in Table 2.
Figure 5 shows a single-ended audio input.
Setting f -3dB too high affects the low-frequency
response of the amplifier. Use capacitors with
dielectrics that have low-voltage coefficients, such as
tantalum or aluminum electrolytic. Capacitors with high
voltage coefficients, such as ceramics, can increase
distortion at low frequencies.
PCB Layout
Good PC board (PCB) layout is essential for optimizing
performance. Use large traces for the power-supply
inputs and amplifier outputs to minimize losses due to
parasitic trace resistance and to route heat away from
the device. Good grounding improves audio performance and prevents any digital switching noise from
coupling into the audio signal. The exposed paddle lowers the thermal resistance of the package by providing a
direct-heat conduction path from the die to the PCB.
Connect the exposed paddle to NEG directly under the
IC. Refer to the MAX8678 Evaluation Kit for a good PCB
layout example.

Input Filter
The fully differential amplifier inputs can be biased at
voltages other than midsupply. The common-mode
feedback circuit adjusts for input bias, ensuring the
outputs are still biased at midsupply. Input capacitors
are not required as long as the common-mode input
voltage is within the specified range listed in the
Electrical Characteristics.
If input capacitors are used (see Figure 4), the input
capacitor in conjunction with the amplifier input impedance (RIN) form a highpass filter that removes the DC
bias from an incoming signal. The AC-coupling capacitor
allows the amplifier to bias the signal to an optimum DC
level. Assuming zero-source impedance, the -3dB point
of the highpass filter is given by:
