The driver acts as a current source, ensuring constant LED current for a range of input voltages. The SP768 allows implementing the lowest cost LED driver for a variety of applications. Internal circuitry maintains the preset constant current output for a wide voltage range at the LED input. The LED current can be adjusted up to 033mA with an external clock applied to the CTRL pin. The built-in thermal protection automatically stops LED current to prevent overheating. A timeout function serves as a failsafe, shutting down the output for currents greater than 266mA after 4 seconds of continuous operation if the enable input is not cycled.

The design consists of a regulator reference voltage source, DAC, voltage-to-current converter, thermal shutdown, timeout shutdown, and output driver. The precision reference voltage ensures good performance over voltage and temperature. The built-in thermal protection automatically stops LED current to prevent overheating. A timeout function serves as a failsafe, shutting down the output for currents greater than 266mA after 4 seconds of continuous operation if the enable input is not cycled. Current Setting DAC The LED output current is defined by a current control DAC. The input to the DAC is the CTRL pin. The DAC outputs a unit current of 33.33mA with each applied pulse at the CTRL pin. The DAC has 5 bits, so the total number of steps that can be achieved is 25 or 32. The initial step of the DAC corresponds to zero, so the maximum current output is 3 times the unit current. Any multiple of the 33.33mA output current can be achieved from to 3 sequentially. The DAC CTRL input is positive-edge triggered and may be either at high or low logic state when the part is powered up. The ENABLE pin logic HIGH level may be applied with Vcc voltage. The CTRL input allows an increase in LED current only. If a lower Iled current value is required, the device should be sent into shutdown mode (EN =HIGH to LOW/LOW to HIGH) and a new pulse sequence should be applied to the CTRL pin. If the pulse number exceeds 3, all other pulses are ignored and 033 mA current is set. The SP768 can be placed into Sleep Mode by applying a logic LOW on the CTRL pin for longer than 00s after any pulse sequence. In the Sleep Mode, the driver is disabled and Iled current is zero, but blocks associated with the DAC remain active, and Icc Sleep Mode Current is always higher than Icc current in Shutdown Mode. This function is used to output the Iled current for a specified duration. If the Iled current exceeds 266 mA (8 pulses) the maximum Time Duration is 4s. After that, the device is automatically sent into Sleep Mode. This function is intended to protect the LED if, for example, the device was left on in a high current condition for a long period of time. Appyling a new pulse sequence to the CTRL pin at Sleep Mode will wake up the device but increase the Iled current at 33.3mA multiplied by the number of pulses. To return the device to the previous or lower Iled current value, use Shutdown (EN =HIGH to LOW/LOW to HIGH) and apply a new pulse sequence to the CTRL pin. The current control DAC accepts clock rates up to 4MHz. The code for the DAC loads while the output driver takes 50s to respond. This implies that the LED output current will reach its final value 50s after the final pulse is applied to the CTRL pin. Date: Dec 5-06 Rev E Constant Current LED Driver (c) 2006 Sipex Corporation 6 THEORY OF OPERATION Output Driver The SP768 features a low-side regulated output current driver. A large MOSFET device is connected between the LED and GNDP pins. The MOSFET drain is connected to the LED pins and the MOSFET source is connected to the GNDP pins. There are two pins on each terminal of the MOSFET in order to minimize power dissipation inside the package. Even though there are two LED and GNDP pins, there is actually only one output intended to drive one LED. The light emitting diode connects from VCC to the LED pins. The Iled current regulation is guaranteed at dropout at the LED pins to be less than 00mV. The output current is regulated to within five percent of nominal value even if the voltage between the LED and GNDP pins varies over a wide range. The nominal output is guaranteed within 8% of the defined current. the internal temperature drops by 25C. If the part remains in a high ambient temperature environment or if a high power dissipation condition exists, the output stage will cycle on and off to maintain a preset internal junction temperature to avoid catastrophic damage. In that case,the LED will appear to be blinking. Lower the LED voltage to avoid excess power dissipation in the IC. Shutdown The SP768 has a low current shutdown function. In shutdown mode, the part draws less than 0.A current maximum. The part can be placed into shutdown using the EN pin. ENABLE and CTRL pins cannot be tri-stated or left floating. There are no predefined internal states, so leaving these pins open will cause the part to operate incorrectly. Timeout A Time Duration Before Shutdown feature acts as a failsafe to protect the LED from long ON times. The nominal timeout is defined as 4 seconds. Power-on-Reset This function is used to set DAC and Time Duration counters into their initial state after power up. No signal applied to the CTRL pin can be accepted during this time, even if the input voltage is applied simultaneously to Vcc and ENABLE pins. Thermal Protection The SP768 has built-in thermal protection. An internal p-n junction is compared to the internal temperature compensated reference. When the p-n junction reaches a temperature specific voltage, it trips a comparator which shuts down the driver stage of the part placing the device into sleep mode while DAC circuit remains active. The shutdown temperature is defined to be 160C. The comparator circuit has built-in hysteresis corresponding to 25C. The output stage will resume operation and start sinking the current that was defined prior to shutdown when Date: Dec 5-06 Rev E Constant Current LED Driver (c) 2006 Sipex Corporation 7 BOARD LAYOUT AND GROUNDING To obtain the best performance from the SP768, a printed circuit board with ground plane is required. High quality, low series resistance ceramic F bypass capacitors should be used at the Vcc pin (pin 3). These capacitors must be located as close to pins 3 - 6 as possible. The traces connecting the pins and the bypassing capacitors must be kept short and should be made as wide as possible. Pins - 2 are connected together internally but we recommend connecting the LED cathode to both pins to avoid additional power losses at high current. Pins 6, 7 and 8 should be connected to the ground plane. Board layout should prevent high LED ground current from flowing through signal ground connected to pin 6. This pin is a separate ground for the reference and logic sections of the SP768. The quiescent current for the part flows into the VCC pin and out of the GND pin. This current is proportional to the Iled current divided by approximately 500.
