Application and Implementation

NOTE

Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.

Application Information

The LP5521 is designed as a autonomous lighting controller for mobile devices. These devices need extremely small form factor; therefore, the LP5521 is designed to require only 4 small capacitors: input, output, and two fly-capacitors for charge pump. If charge pump is not needed in the application (input voltage is high enough for driving LEDs), the charge pump capacitors can be omitted thus reducing the solution size even further. LED can be RGB LED or any color if desired.

Typical Applications

Application with Charge Pump shows an example of typical application which uses charge pump to get high enough voltage to drive LEDs. The device is powered from single Li-Ion battery with voltage range of 2.7 V to 4.2 V.

Application with Charge Pump

LP5521 20186270.gif Figure 26. LP5521 Typical Application Schematic With Charge Pump

Design Requirements

DESIGN PARAMETER EXAMPLE VALUE
Input voltage range 2.7 V to 4.2 V (single Li-Ion cell battery)
LED VF (maximum) 3.6 V
LED current 25.5 mA maximum
Input capacitor CIN = 1 μF
Output capacitor COUT = 1 μF
Fly capacitors CFLY1 = CFLY2 = 470 nF
Charge pump mode Automatic or 1.5×

Detailed Design Procedure

Capacitor Selection

The LP5521 requires 4 external capacitors for proper operation (CIN = COUT = 1 μF, CFLY1 = CFLY2 = 470 nF). Surface-mount multi-layer ceramic capacitors are recommended. These capacitors are small, inexpensive and have very low equivalent series resistance (ESR < 20 mΩ typical). Tantalum capacitors, OS-CON capacitors, and aluminum electrolytic capacitors are not recommended for use with the LP5521 due to their high ESR, as compared to ceramic capacitors.

For most applications, ceramic capacitors with X7R or X5R temperature characteristic are preferred for use with the LP5521. These capacitors have tight capacitance tolerance (as good as ±10%) and hold their value over temperature (X7R: ±15% over –55°C to 125°C; X5R: ±15% over –55°C to 85°C).

Capacitors with Y5V or Z5U temperature characteristic are generally not recommended for use with the LP5521. Capacitors with these temperature characteristics typically have wide capacitance tolerance (+80%, –20%) and vary significantly over temperature (Y5V: +22%, –82% over –30°C to +85°C range; Z5U: +22%, –56% over +10°C to +85°C range). Under some conditions, a nominal 1-μF Y5V or Z5U capacitor could have a capacitance of only 0.1 μF. Such detrimental deviation is likely to cause Y5V and Z5U capacitors to fail to meet the minimum capacitance requirements of the LP5521.

The minimum voltage rating acceptable for all capacitors is 6.3 V. The recommended voltage rating of the output capacitor is 10 V to account for DC bias capacitance losses.

NOTE

Some ceramic capacitors, especially those in small packages, exhibit a strong capacitance reduction with the increased applied voltage (DC bias effect). The capacitance value can fall below half of the nominal capacitance. Choose output and input capacitor with DC bias voltage effect better than –50% at 5 V voltage (0.5 μF at 5 V).

Application Without Charge Pump

In this application example the input voltage is high enough to drive the LEDs even without charge pump. In that case the charge pump components are omitted, allowing savings on bill-of-material and also board space. Charge pump must be set to 1× mode (bypass) in this case.

Detailed Design Procedures

Selecting input and output capacitors follows the same procedure as in the application with charge pump.

    • Supply, for example,1.8 V to EN
    • Wait 1 ms (start-up delay)

    • Write to address 04H 1111 1111b (B driver PWM 100% duty cycle)

LEDs are turned on after the PWM values are written. Changes to the PWM value registers are reflected immediately to the LED brightness. Default LED current (17.5 mA) is used for LED outputs, if no other values are written.
