DESCRIPTION
AIC1648 is a fixed frequency step-up DC/DC converter designed to drive white LEDs with a constant current to provide backlight in handheld devices. Series connection of LEDs provides identical LED currents resulting in uniform brightness. This configuration eliminates the need of ballast resistors. The built-in open load protection prevents the damage resulting from an open circuit condition. Low 95mV feedback voltage minimizes power loss in the current setting resistor for better efficiency.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Inductor Selection
A 10µH inductor is recommended for most AIC1648 applications. Although small size and high efficiency are major concerns, the inductor should have low core losses at 1.2MHz and low DCR (copper wire resistance). and larger diode capacitance, which can cause significant switching losses at the 1.2MHz switching frequency of AIC1648. An Schottky diode rated at 100mA to 200mA is sufficient for most AIC1648 applications.
LED Current Control
LED current is controlled by feedback resistor (RFB in Figure 1). The feedback reference voltage is 95mV. The LED current is 95mV/ RFB. In order to have accurate LED current, precision resistors are preferred (1% recommended). The formula for RFB selection is shown below. RFB = 95mV/ILED
Capacitor Selection
The small size of ceramic capacitors makes them ideal for AIC1648 applications. X5R and X7R types are recommended because they retain their capacitance over wider ranges of voltage and temperature than other types, such as Y5V or Z5U. 1µF input capacitor with 1µF output capacitor are sufficient for most AIC1648 applications.
Open-Circuit Protection
In the cases of output open circuit, when the LEDs are disconnected from the circuit or the LEDs fail, the feedback voltage will be zero. AIC1648 will then switch to a high duty cycle resulting in a high output voltage, which may cause SW pin voltage to exceed its maximum 33V rating. Connect builtin OVP (Over Voltage Protection) pin to output terminal to prevent the damage resulting from an open circuit condition.
Diode Selection
Schottky diodes, with their low forward voltage drop and fast reverse recovery, are the ideal choices for AIC1648 applications. The forward voltage drop of an Schottky diode represents the conduction losses in the diode, while the diode capacitance (CT or CD) represents the switching losses. For diode selection, both forward voltage drop and diode capacitance need to be considered. Schottky diodes with higher current ratings usually have lower forward voltage drop

Dimming Control
There are three different ways of dimming control circuits as follows: 1. Using a PWM signal PWM brightness control provides the widest dimming range by pulsing the LEDs on and off at full and zero current, respectively. The change of average LED current depends on the duty cycle of the PWM signal. Typically, a 0.1kHz to 1kHz PWM signal is used. Two applications of PWM dimming with AIC1648 are shown in Figure 16 and Figure 17. One, as Figure 16, uses PWM signal to drive SHDN pin directly for dimming control. The other, as Figure 17, employs PWM signal going through a resistor to drive FB pin. If the SHDN pin is used, the increase of duty cycle results in LED brightness enhancement. If the FB pin is used, on the contrary, the increase of duty

cycle will decrease its brightness. In this application, LEDs are dimmed by FB pin and turned off completely by SHDN . 2. Using a DC Voltage For some applications, the preferred method of a dimming control uses a variable DC voltage to adjust LED current. The dimming control using a DC voltage is shown in Figure 18. With a VDC ranging from 0V to 5V, the selection of resistors in Figure 18 results in dimming control of LED current from 20mA to 0mA, respectively. 3. Using a Filtered PWM Signal Filtered PWM signal can be considered as an adjustable DC voltage. It can be used to replace the variable DC voltage source in dimming control. The circuit is shown in Figure 19.
