PIN FUNCTION
VIN is the supply voltage input. The device is
compatible with supply voltages down to 2.8V and up to
4.2V. Internal under-voltage lockout (UVLO) circuitry
will automatically prevent the device from operating
whenever the supply falls below 1.9V. For operation up
to maximum rated loads a bypass ceramic capacitor of
10µF is recommended between the VIN and GND pins
near the device.
SW pin is the drain terminal of the internal low
resistance power switch. The inductor and the Schottky
diode anode should be connected to the SW pin.
Traces going to the SW pin should be as short as
possible with minimum loop area. This pin contains
over-voltage circuitry which becomes active above 18V.
In the event of an “open-LED” fault condition, the
device will enter a low power mode and the SW pin will
be clamped to approximately 21V.
EN is the enable logic input (active high). When the pin
voltage is taken below 0.4V, the device enters
shutdown mode, drawing nearly zero current. At pin
voltages greater than 1.4V, the device is fully enabled.
LED1, LED2 provide the internal regulated current for
each of the LED cathodes. These pins enter a high
impedance zero current state whenever the device is
placed in shutdown mode. In applications with only one
string of LEDs, the two LED pins should be tied
together. LED pins should not be left floating.
FLASH is the logic input (active high) used to control
Flash mode operation. When the pin voltage is taken
above 1.4V, the device transitions from Movie mode to
Flash mode. When the pin voltage is taken back below
0.4V, the device returns back to Movie mode operation.
OVP is the overvoltage protection input pin. When the
pin voltage exceeds the 1.2V overvoltage threshold
(VOVP), the driver stops switching. The output VOUT
then drops down. As soon as the OVP pin voltage falls
under the VOVP threshold, the part starts switching
again.
RSET, RFLASH pins allow to set the LED current
respectively in Movie and Flash mode. These pins,
regulated at 1.2V, must be connected to a pull-down
resistor tied to ground. The LED current is a function of
the resistor value.
TAB is the exposed pad underneath the package. For
best thermal performance, the tab should be soldered
to the PCB and connected to the ground plane.
GND is the ground reference for the driver. The pin
must be connected to the ground plane on the PCB.
