Description
The SC4539 is designed to regulate current for a series chain of white LEDs in LCD backlighting applications where small size and high efficiency are priorities. This device integrates an 800kHz current-mode PWM boost converter and a 30mA programmable low dropout current sink regulator. An external resistor sets the LED current up to 30mA. PWM dimming (100Hz to 50kHz) may be applied directly to the enable (EN) pin, or dimming can be controlled by applying an analog signal to the ISET circuit. The boost circuit can output up to 22V (guaranteed) to drive up to 6 LEDs in series. The current regulator protects against shorts between the BL and OUT pins and also eliminates backlight glow during shutdown when using LEDs with high leakage. Under-voltage lockout and thermal shutdown provide additional protection. A small external capacitor and series resistor control soft-start and loop compensation. Over-voltage detection protects the SC4539 if the LED pin is floating or shorted to ground. The SC4539 is available in an MLPD-8 pin 2mm x 2mm x 0.6mm package, with a rated temperature range of -40C to +85C.

Applications Information (continued)
General Description
The SC4539 contains an 800kHz fixed-frequency currentmode boost converter and an independent LED current regulator. The LED current set point is chosen using an external resistor, while the PWM controller operates independently to keep the current in regulation. The SC4539 receives information from the internal LED current regulator and drives the output to the proper voltage with no user intervention. The current flowing through the LED string is independently controlled by an internal current regulator, unlike the ballasting resistor scheme that many LED current regulators use. The internal current regulator can be shut off entirely without leaking current from a charged output capacitor or causing false-lighting with low LED count and high VIN. The backlight current (IBL) is programmed using an external resistor. The path from the EN pin to the output control is a high bandwidth control loop. This feature allows the PWM dimming frequency to range between 100Hz and 50kHz. In shutdown mode, leakage through the current regulator output is less than 1A. This keeps the output capacitor charged and ready for instant activation of the LED strand. The 800kHz switching speed provides high output power while allowing the use of a 1.0mm-high inductor, maximizing efficiency for space constrained and cost-sensitive applications. The converter and output capacitor are protected from open-LED conditions by over-voltage protection. seconds provides the additional advantage of reducing in-rush current at start up. The start-up delay time between the enable signal going high and the activation of the internal current regulator causes nonlinearity between the IBL current and the duty cycle of the PWM frequency seen by the EN pin. As the PWM signal frequency increases, the total on time per cycle of the PWM signal decreases. Since the start up delay time remains constant, the effect of the delay becomes more noticeable, causing the average IBL to be less predictable at lower duty cycles.
Zero Duty Cycle Mode
Zero duty cycle mode is activated when the voltage on the BL pin exceeds 1.3V. In this mode, the COMP pin voltage is pulled low, suspending all switching. This allows the VOUT and VBL voltages to fall. The COMP voltage is held low until the VBL falls below 1V, allowing VCOMP to return to its normal operating voltage and switching to resume.
Protection Features
The SC4539 provides several protection features to safeguard the device from catastrophic failures. These features include:
* * * *
Over-Voltage Protection (OVP) Soft-start Thermal Shutdown Current Limit
PWM Dimming
The enable pin can be toggled to allow PWM dimming. In a typical application, a microcontroller sets a register or counter that varies the pulse width on a GPIO pin. The device is compatible with a wide range of applications by allowing dimming strategies that avoid the audio band by using a frequency between 100Hz and 50kHz for PWM dimming. Various intensity levels can be generated while keeping the instantaneous LED current at its peak value for luminescent efficiency and color purity. The SC4539 can accommodate any PWM duty cycle between 0 and 100%. A low duty cycle PWM signal used for a few milli-
Over-Voltage Protection (OVP) A built-in over-voltage protection circuit prevents damage to the IC and output capacitor in the event of an opencircuit condition. The output voltage of the boost converter is detected at the OUT pin and divided internally. If the voltage at the OUT pin exceeds the OVP limit, the boost converter is shut down, and a strong pull down is applied to the OUT pin to quickly discharge the output capacitor. This additional level of protection prevents a condition where the output capacitor and Schottky diode must endure high voltage for an extended period of time.

SC4539
Applications Information (continued)
Soft-Start The soft-start mode reduces in-rush current by utilizing the external compensation network. As the error amplifier slowly charges the COMP node voltage, the duty cycle of the boost switch ramps from 0% to its final value once in regulation. The gradual increase of the duty cycle slowly charges the output capacitor and limits in-rush current during start up. Soft-start is implemented only when the input power is cycled. Thermal Shutdown A thermal shutdown system is included for protection in the event the junction temperature exceeds 155C. In thermal shutdown, the on-chip power switch is disabled. Switching and sinking resumes when the temperature drops by 20C. Current Limit The power switch of the boost is protected by an internal current limit function. The switch is opened when the current exceeds the maximum current switch value.

Capacitor Selection
The input capacitor should be at least 2.2F. A larger capacitor will reduce the voltage ripple on the input. The output capacitor values can range from 0.22F to 1F. The compensation capacitor value should be 47nF. Capacitors of X5R type material or better can be used for any of the capacitors. See Table 2 for capacitors that can be used.

Inductor Selection
The inductor value should be within the range of 4.7H to 22H. The DCR needs to be considered when picking the inductor to ensure optimum efficiency. The largest inductor package that can be tolerated in the circuit area should be used since the DCR generally decreases with increasing package size. The saturation current of the inductor should be much higher than the peak current of the internal boost switch to ensure that the inductor never enters saturation during normal operation of the part. The equation to calculate the peak inductor current is

Diode Selection
A Schottky diode with a reverse voltage of 40V and a forward current rating of 1A should be used with this device for optimum per formance. The Central Semiconductor Corporation CMOSH-4E is a suitable diode for this application.
PCB Layout Considerations
Poor layout can degrade the performance of the DC-DC converter and can be a contributory factor in EMI problems, ground bounce, thermal issues, and resistive voltage losses. Poor regulation and instability can result. A typical layout is shown in Figure 3. The following design rules are recommended:
Selection of Other Components
RISET sets the maximum load current for the SC4539. Use the following equation to select the proper value: RISET = 230xVISET/ILOAD where VISET = 0.5V (typ). Refer to Figure 2 for selecting values for other current settings. Notice that the error increases as the desired IBL current decreases.

* * *
Place the inductor and filter capacitors as close to the device as possible and use short, wide traces between the power components. Route the output voltage feedback path away from the inductor and LX node to minimize noise and magnetic interference. Use a ground plane to further reduce noise interference on sensitive circuit nodes.
