Preliminary Information
INTRODUCTION
The SMB112 is a highly integrated and flexible five-channel
power manager designed for powering TFT/LCD display
panels and for driving low- and high-power white-LEDs. The
built-in digital programmability allows system designers to
custom tailor the device to suit almost any multi-channel power
supply application from digital camcorders to mobile phones.
The SMB112 integrates all the essential blocks required to
implement a complete five-channel power subsystem for
TFT/LCD panels including a synchronous step-down “buck”
controller, two step-up “boost” controllers, one inverting “buck-
boost” controller and one fixed output +3.3V LDO. Additionally
sophisticated power control/monitoring functions required by
complex systems are built-in.
These include digitally
programmable output voltage set point, individual dimming,
power-up/down sequencing, enable/disable, margining and
UV/OV/input/output monitoring on all channels.
The integration of features and built-in flexibility of the SMB112
allows the system designer to create a “platform solution” that
can be easily modified via software without major hardware
changes.
Combined with the re-programmability of the
SMB112 this facilitates rapid design cycles and proliferation
from a base design to future generations of product.
The SMB112 is suited to battery-powered applications with an
input range of +2.7V to +6.0V. Output voltages are extremely
accurate (<0.5%) employing proprietary ADOC™ technology.

Communication is via the industry standard I C bus. All user-
programmed settings are stored in non-volatile EEPROM of
which 96 bytes may be used for general-purpose memory
applications. The operating temperature range is 0C to +70C
and the available package is a lead-free, Green, RoHS
compliant, 32-pad QFN-32.
