6 / 14 page LM2796 SNVS273 – MAY 2004 www.ti.com CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION OVERVIEW The LM2796 is primarily intended for Lithium-Ion battery driven white-LED drive applications, and is well suited to drive white LEDs that are used for backlighting small-format displays. The part has seven matched constant- current outputs, each capable of driving up to 20mA (or more) through white LEDs. The well-matched current sources ensure the current through all the LEDs is virtually identical. This keeps brightness of all LEDs matched to near perfection so that they can provide a consistent backlight over the entire display. The core of the LM2796 is a 1.5x/1x dual-mode charge pump. The input of the charge pump is connected to the VIN pin. The recommended input voltage range of the LM2796 is 2.7V to 5.5V. The output of the charge pump is the POUT pin ( “Pump OUTput”). The output voltage of the charge pump is unregulated and varies with input voltage and load current. The charge pump operates in the 1.5x mode when the input voltage is below 4.75V (typ.). In this mode, the input-to-output voltage gain of the charge pump is 1.5, and the voltage at the output of the charge pump will be approximately 1.5x the input voltage (V(POUT) ≈ 1.5 * VIN ). When in the 1.5x mode, the charge pump provides the voltage boost that is required to drive white LEDs from a Li-Ion battery. (White LEDs typically have a forward voltage in the range of 3.3V to 4.0V. A Li-Ion battery typically is not considered to be fully discharged until the battery voltage falls to 3.0V (approx.) ) The charge pump operates in the 1x mode when the input voltage is above 4.75V (typ.). In these conditions, voltage boost is not required to drive the LEDs, so the charge pump merely passes the input voltage to POUT (V(POUT) ≈ VIN). This reduces the input current and the power dissipation of the LM2796 when the input voltage is high. The matched current outputs are generated with a precision current mirror that is biased off the charge pump output. Matched currents are ensured with the use of tightly matched internal devices and internal mismatch cancellation circuitry. Top-side current drive allows LEDs to be connected between each current output and GND, simplifying PWB routing and connectivity. There are seven regulated current outputs. These seven outputs are split into two groups, a group of 4 outputs and a group of 3 outputs. There is an ON/OFF control pin for each group. The DC current through the LEDs is programmed with an external resistor. Changing currents on-the-fly can be achieved with the use of digital pulse (PWM) signals. ENABLE PINS: EN, ENA, ENB The LM2796 has 3 enable pins. All three are active-high logic (HIGH = ON). There are internal pull-down resistors (300k Ω typ.) that are connected internally between each of the enable pins and GND. The EN pin is the master enable pin for the part. When voltage on this pin is low (<0.5V), the part is in shutdown mode. All internal circuitry is OFF and the part consumes very little supply current when the LM2796 is shutdown. When the voltage on the EN pin is high (>1.1V), the part is active. The charge pump is ON, and it is possible to turn on the output currents to drive the LEDs. ENA and ENB are used to turn the output currents ON and OFF. ENA activates/deactivates the four group-A outputs (D1A-D4A). ENB activates/deactivates the three group-B outputs (D1B-D3B). SETTING LED CURRENTS The output currents of the LM2796 can be set to a desired value simply by connecting an appropriately sized resistor (RSET) between the ISET pin of the LM2796 and GND. The output currents (LED currents) are proportional to the current that flows out of the ISET pin. The output currents are a factor of 100 greater than the ISET current. The feedback loop of an internal amplifier sets the voltage of the ISET pin to 1.25V (typ.). Placing a resistor between ISET and GND programs the ISET current, and thus the LED currents. The statements above are simplified in the equations below: IDxx = 100 ×(VSET / RSET) (1) RSET = 100 × (1.25V / IDxx) (2) 6 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2004, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2796 |
