Preliminary Product Information
High Efficiency, Constant Current
White-LEDs Driver
Function Description
The AT1312 series are high efficiency and constant current DC-DC converter IC
which is designed primarily for use in LED module applications. The output voltage
of the step-up converter can be set from Vin to 16V/23V/28V with external sense
resistor. The device suits to drive series-connected LEDs and provides even
illumination by sourcing the same output current through each LED. AT1312 series
also consists of a logic shutdown, cycle-by-cycle current-limited, soft-start functions.
Logic control input or PWM duty cycle control allows easy adjustment of LEDs
brightness and on/off control. The average LED current is proportional to the
duty-cycle of the PWM signal. Typical PWM frequency should be between 100Hz
and 1KHz.
The boost converter operates in current-mode PWM and a constant frequency of 1.0
MHz. Depending on duty cycle of each switching cycle can regulate output voltage.
On the rising edge of the internal clock, the control and driver logic block sets internal
flip-flop when the output voltage is too low, which turns on the N-MOS. The external
inductor current ramps up linearly, storing energy in a magnetic filed. Once peak
current of inductor over trans-conductance output level, the N-MOS turns off, the
flip-flop resets, and external schottky diode turns on. This forces the current through
the inductor to ramp back down, transferring the energy stored in the magnetic field to
the output capacitor and LEDs. To reduce external components, the device will be
built-in internal loop compensation.
Enable Control
Digital logic of EN provides an electrical ON/OFF control of the power supply.
Connecting this pin to ground or to any voltage less than 0.7V and sustain the level
over 4ms will completely turn off the regulator. In this state, current drain from the
input supply is less than 1uA, the internal reference, error amplifier, comparators, and
biasing circuitry turn off. If holding time of low level is less than 3ms on this pin, then
the device only shutdown driver logic block.
Dimming Control
Digital logic of EN also provides LEDs brightness control by applying a PWM signal
on EN pin. With this way, the LEDs operate with either zero or full current. The
average LED current is proportional to the duty-cycle of the PWM signal. Typical
PWM frequency should be between 100Hz and 1KHz. Output current is given by:
I LED =
200mV × TON − PWM
RSENSE × TS − PWM
Where:
TON-PWM : On time of PWM signal
TS-PWM : A cycle time of PWM signal
If dimming control is not required , EN works as a simple on/off control. Drive EN

high to enable the device , or drive EN low for shutdown.
Soft-Start
Soft-start allows a gradual increase of the internal current-limit level for the step-up
converter during power-up to reduce input surge currents. As the internal current
source charges the internal soft-start capacitor, the peak N-MOS current is limited by
the voltage on the capacitor. In another story, when toggle or a logic-level transition
on EN pin from low to high, soft-start function must work to enable constant current
charging internal capacitor. When soft-start process has finished or appeared falling
edge of PWM signal on EN pin, soft-start capacitor must be discharged to ground
level.
Cycle-by-Cycle Over-Current Protection
The AT1312 series provides cycle-by-cycle over-current protection. Current limit is
accomplished using a separate dedicated comparator. The cycle-by-cycle current limit
abbreviates the on-time of the N-MOS in event that the current of flowing N-MOS is
greater than the current limit value. The current-limit feature protection against a hard
short or over-current fault at the output.
Over-Voltage Protection
If VOUT is above 16V/23V/28V( for AT1312A/B/C) or LEDs are disconnected from
the circuit, the FB pin is similar to pull down to ground with a sense resistor. This will
cause N-MOS to switch with a maximum duty cycle and come out output
over-voltage. This may cause the LX pin voltage to exceed its maximum voltage
rating to damage built-in N-MOS. In the state, the OVP protection circuitry stops the
internal N-MOS. When VOUT falls below 14V/21V/26V, IC will automatically recover
normal operation.
Thermal-Overload Protection
Thermal-overload protection limits total power dissipation in the AT1312 series.
When the junction temperature exceeds Tj=130 ℃, a thermal sensor activates the
thermal protection, which shuts down the IC, allowing the IC to cool. Once the device
cools down by 10 ℃, IC will automatically recover normal operation. For continuous
operation , do not exceed the absolute maximum junction-temperature rating of
Tj=120 ℃.
Power dissipation consideration
The AT1312 series maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of
the IC package and circuit board, the temperature difference between the die junction
and ambient air, and the rate of any airflow. The power dissipation in the device
depends on the operating conditions of the regulator. In continuous condition, the
step-up converter power dissipated internally across the internal N-MOS can be
approximated by :

Application Information
External components of boost converter can be designed by performing simple
calculations.
Boost inductor
Inductor selection depends on input voltage, output voltage, maximum output current,
switching frequency and availability of inductor values. The following boost circuit
equations are useful in choosing the inductor values based on the application. They
allow the trading of peak current and inductor value while allowing for consideration
of component availability and cost.
The peak inductor current is given by:
I Lpeak = I LAVG +
I LAVG =
∆I L
2
IO
1− D
where:
△IL is the inductor peak-to-peak current ripple and is decided by:
V
D
∆I L = in ×
L
f OSC
D is the MOSFET turn on ratio and is decided by:
V −V in
D= O
VO
fOSC is the switching frequency.
The inductor should be chosen to be able to handle this current and inductor saturation
current rating should be greater than IPEAK.
Diode selection
The output diode has average current of IO, and peak current the same as the
inductor’s peak current and a voltage rating at least 1.5 times the output voltage.
Schottky diode is recommended and it should be able to handle those current.
Output Capacitor
The AT1312 series are specially compensated to be stable with capacitors which have
a worst- case minimum value of 1uF at the particular VOUT being set. Output ripple
voltage requirements also determine the minimum value and type of capacitors.
Output ripple voltage consists of two components the voltage drop caused by the
switching current through the ESR of the output capacitor and the charging and
discharging of the output capacitor:
V − Vin
IO
V RIPPLE = I LPEAK × ESR + O
×
VO
C OUT × f OSC
For low ESR ceramic capacitors, the output ripple is dominated by the charging or
discharging of the output capacitor.

PCB layout guidelines
Careful printed circuit layout is extremely important to avoid causing parasitical
capacitance and line inductance. The following layout guidelines are recommended to
achieve optimum performance.
• Please the boost converter diode and inductor close to the LX pin and no via.
Keep traces short, direct, and wide.
• Please ceramic bypass capacitors near the input/output pin.
• Locate all feedback sense resistors as close to the feedback pins as possible.
• The ground connections of VIN and VOUT should be as close together as possible.
