7 / 10 page July 2005 7 M9999-070105 MIC2287 Micrel, Inc. Dimming Control There are two techniques for dimming control. One is PWM dimming, and the other is continuous dimming. 1. PWM dimming control is implemented by applying a PWM signal on EN pin as shown in Figure 1. The MIC2287 is turned on and off by the PWM signal. Withthismethod,theLEDsoperatewitheitherzero orfullcurrent.TheaverageLEDcurrentisincreased proportionally to the duty-cycle of the PWM signal. This technique has high-efficiency because the IC and the LEDs consume no current during the off cycle of the PWM signal. Typical PWM frequency should be between 100Hz and 10kHz. 2. Continuous dimming control is implemented by applying a DC control voltage to the FB pin of the MIC2287 through a series resistor as shown in Figure 2. The LED intensity (current) can be dy- namically varied applying a DC voltage to the FB pin. The DC voltage can come from a DAC signal, or a filtered PWM signal. The advantage of this ap- proach is a high frequency PWM signal (>10kHz) that can be used to control LED intensity. PWM VIN EN SW FB GND VIN Figure 1.

Continuous Dimming Open-Circuit Protection If the LEDs are disconnected from the circuit, or in case an LED fails open, the sense resistor will pull the FB pin to ground. This will cause the MIC2287 to switch with a high duty-cycle, resulting in output overvoltage. This may cause the SW pin voltage to exceed its maximum voltage rating, possibly damaging the IC and the external components. To ensure the highest level of protection, the MIC2287 has 3 product options in the 8-lead 2mm × 2mm MLF™ with over- voltage protection (OVP). The extra pins of the 8-lead 2mm × 2mm MLF™ package allow a dedicated OVP monitor with options for 15V, 24V, or 34V (see Figure 3). The reason for the three OVP levels is to let users choose the suitable level of OVPfor their application. For example, a 3-LED application would typically see an output voltage of no more than 12V, so a 15V OVP option would offer a suitable level of protection. This allows the user to select the output diode and capacitor with the lowest voltage ratings, as well as smallest size and lowest cost. The OVP will clamp the output voltage to within the specified limits. For the Thin SOT-23-5 package, an OVP pin is not available.An external zener diode can be connected from the output of the converter to FB pin as shown in Figure 4. to implement similar protection.

Thin SOT-23 Package OVP Circuit Start-Up and Inrush Current During start-up, inrush current of approximately double the nominal current flows to set up the inductor current and the voltage on the output capacitor. If the inrush current needs to be limited, a soft-start circuit similar to Figure 5 could be implemented. The soft-start capacitor, CSS, provides over- drive to the FB pin at start-up, resulting in gradual increase of switch duty cycle and limited inrush current.
