MP1523 Precision 6-Lamp White LED Driver Monolithic Power Systems INITIAL RELEASE DESCRIPTION The MP1523 is a 5-pin SOT23 step-up converter designed for driving up to six (6) series white LEDs from a single-cell Lithium Ion battery. The MP1523 uses a current limited, variable frequency architecture to regulate the LED current, which is measured through an external current sense resistor. Its low 0.4V feedback threshold reduces power loss and improves efficiency. To prevent damage due to an open circuit condition, the BIAS pin can measure the output voltage and turn off the converter if an over-voltage condition is present. The MP1523 includes under-voltage lockout, current limiting, and thermal overload protection to prevent damage in the event of an output overload. The MP1523 is available in a small 5-pin SOT23 package.

SW is the drain of the internal MOSFET switch. Connect the power inductor and output rectifier to SW. SW can swing between GND and 25V. Ground Feedback Input. The MP1523 regulates the voltage across the current sense resistor between FB and GND. Connect a current sense resistor from the bottom of the LED string to GND. Connect the bottom of the LED string to FB. The regulation threshold is 0.4V. Regulator On/Off Control Input. A high input at EN turns on the converter, and a low input turns it off. When not used, connect EN to the input source for automatic startup. If EN is driven over 6V, place a resistor in series with EN to limit current to 10µA or less. Do not leave EN floating! Internal Power Input. BIAS powers the internal circuitry and measures the output voltage for open circuit protection. Connect BIAS to the output at the top of the LED string to enable open load shutdown feature (see Figure 3). Connect BIAS to the input to eliminate open load shutdown feature (see Figure 2). 4 EN 5 BIAS 07/04, Rev. 1.6 www.MonolithicPower.com 3 MP1523 – PRECISION 6-LAMP WHITE LED DRIVER INITIAL RELEASE OPERATION The MP1523 is a step-up converter that operates from an input voltage as low as 2.7V and generates an output voltage up to 25V. The 0.5Ω internal N-Channel power MOSFET is driven with a variable frequency, constant-peakcurrent architecture for low operating current. The 550ns minimum off time is extended to 1.6µs during start-up to yield a smooth glitch free turn-on. Variable Frequency Constant-Peak-Current Operation When the power MOSFET is turned on the inductor current increases until the 0.45A current limit is reached. The internal power MOSFET is then turned off for a minimum of 550ns. At the end of this 550ns transition if the FB pin is still lower than the 400mV threshold the MOSFET will again be turned on, otherwise the MP1523 waits until the voltage drops below the threshold before turning on the MOSFET again. This process allows for optimal use of the inductor, while minimizing the output ripple and size of the output capacitor and maintaining low operating current. Open Load Shutdown Open load shutdown is implemented by connecting the BIAS pin to the output. In the fault condition where the connection to the LED string is open, the output voltage will rise up, as the FB pin has no voltage. Once the output voltage exceeds 28V, the MP1523 will cease operation until the EN pin is cycled off and on. Connecting the BIAS pin to VIN disables open load shutdown but reduces the chip power consumption due to the quiescent current.

The LED current can be calculated as: ILED V = FB R2 saturation, use an inductor with a saturation current rating that matches the device current limit. Diode selection The MP1523’s high switching frequency demands a high-speed rectifier (D1) for optimum efficiency. A schottky diode is recommended due to its fast recovery time and low forward voltage drop. Ensure the diode’s average and peak current ratings exceed the average output current and peak inductor current. In addition, the diode’s reverse breakdown voltage must exceed the output voltage. Layout Careful PC board layout is required due to fastswitching. All components must be placed as close to the IC as possible. Keep the path between inductor L1, diode D1, and output capacitor C2 extremely short for minimal noise and ringing. The feedback components such as sense resistor R2 must be kept close to the FB pin to prevent noise injection on the FB pin trace. The ground return of C1 and C2 should be tied close to the GND pin. See the MP1523 demo board layout for reference. Where VFB is 400mV. The LED current is set to 20mA if R2 = 20Ω. Capacitor Selection A 1µF to 10µF ceramic input capacitor (C1) and a 0.47µF to 1µF ceramic output capacitor (C2) are recommended for most applications. A capacitor (typically 1nF) in parallel with the LED string improves stability, input and output ripple especially when large inductance values (10µH or above) are used. For best stability over a wide temperature range, use capacitors with an X5R or X7R dielectric. Inductor selection The MP1523 has a 450mA inductor current limit and can drive up to 6 LEDs at 20mA. Inductance values (L1) from 4.7µH to 47µH work satisfactorily. Larger values provide the best efficiency while small inductor values allow the smallest inductor size.
