A8438 Photoflash Capacitor Charger with IGBT Driver Features and Benefits ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ Power with 1 Li+ or 2 Alkaline/NiMH/NiCAD batteries Adjustable output voltage >75% efficiency Three levels of switch current limit: 1.6, 1.8, 2.0 A Fast charge time Charge complete indication Integrated IGBT driver with trigger No primary-side Schottky diode needed Low-profile package (0.75 mm nominal height) Description The A8438 is a highly integrated IC that charges photoflash capacitors for digital and film cameras. It also features an integrated IGBT driver that facilitates the flash discharge function and saves board space. To charge the photoflash capacitor, the A8438 integrates a 40 V, DMOS switch that drives the transformer in a flyback topology, allowing optimized design with tight coupling and high efficiency. A proprietary control scheme optimizes the capacitor charging time. Low quiescent current and low shutdown current further improve system efficiency and extend battery life. Three levels of switch current limit are provided: 1.6, 1.8, and 2.0 A. The level is determined by configuring the ILIM pin as grounded, floating, or pulled up to IC supply voltage, respectively. The CHARGE pin enables the A8438 and starts the charging of the output capacitor. When the designated output voltage is reached, the A8438 stops the charging until the CHARGE pin is toggled again. Pulling the CHARGE pin low stops charging. The DONE pin is an open-drain indicator of when ¯¯¯¯ ¯ ¯ ¯¯ the designated output voltage is reached. Package: 10 pin TDFN/MLP (suffix EJ) Approximate Scale 1:1 The A8438 can be used with two Alkaline/NiMH/NiCAD or one single-cell Li+ battery connected to the transformer primary. Connect the VIN pin to a 3.0 to 5.5 V supply, which can be either the system rail or the Li+ battery, if used. The A8438 is available in a very low profile (0.75 mm) 10terminal 3×3 mm MLP/TDFN package, making it ideal for space-constrained applications. It is lead (Pb) free, with 100% matte-tin leadframe plating.

It also integrates an IGBT driver for strobe operation of the flash tube, dramatically saving board space in comparison to discrete solutions for strobe flash operation. The control logic is shown in the functional block diagram. The charging operation of the A8438 is started by a low-to-high signal on the CHARGE pin, provided that VIN is above VUVLO level. If CHARGE is already high before VIN reaches VUVLO , another low-to-high transition on the CHARGE pin is required to start the charging. When a charging cycle is initiated, the transformer primary side current, IPrimary, ramps up linearly at a rate determined by the combined effect of the battery voltage, VBATT , and the primary side inductance, LPrimary. When IPrimary reaches the current limit, ISWLIM , set by configuring the ILIM pin, the internal MOSFET is turned off immediately, allowing the energy to be pushed into the photoflash capacitor, COUT, from the secondary winding. The secondary side current drops linearly as COUT charges. While the internal MOSFET switch is turned off, the output voltage, VOUT, is sensed by a resistor string, R1 through R3, connected between the anode of the output diode, D1, and ground. This resistor string forms a voltage divider that feeds back to the FB pin. The resistors must be sized to achieve a desired output voltage level based on a typical value of 1.205 V at the FB pin. As soon as VOUT reaches the desired value, the charging process is terminated. The user may toggle the CHARGE pin to refresh the photoflash capacitor. Switch On-Time and Off-Time Control The A8438 implements an adaptive on-time/off-time control. (For circuit details, please refer to the the Control Logic block in the simplified Functional Block Diagram on page 2.) On-time duration, tON , is determined by input voltage, VIN, transformer primary inductance, LPrimary, and the set current limit, ISWLIM . Off-time duration, tOFF , depends on the operating conditions during switch off-time. The A8438 applies its two charging modes, Fast Charging mode and Timer mode, according to those conditions. IBATT(Avg) VOUT Fast Charging and Timer Modes The IC operates in the Fast Charging mode when the photoflash capacitor, COUT, is only partially discharged. In Fast Charging mode, the converter operates near the discontinuous boundary, and a sensing circuit tracks the fly-back voltage at the SW node. As soon as this voltage swings below 1.2 V, the internal MOSFET switch is turned on again, starting the next charging cycle. The IC operates in the Timer mode when beginning to charge a completely discharged photoflash capacitor, usually when the output voltage, VOUT, is less than approximately 10 to 20 V. Timer mode is a fixed 18 μs off-time control. One advantage of the A8438 watchdog timer control scheme is that it limits the initial current surge and thus acts as a “soft-start.” As shown in figure 3, the timer mode only lasts a small fraction of a second (usually < 100 ms). It can be recognized by its lower initial input charging current as a result of a lower duty cycle. As output voltage rises to more than 10 to 20 V, the adaptive Fast Charging mode takes over the control, raising the average input current level. Timer Mode Fast Charging Mode Figure 3. Sequencing of Timer mode and Fast Charging mode (time axis scale is 1 s per division) Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. 115 Northeast Cutoff, Box 15036 Worcester, Massachusetts 01615-0036 (508) 853-5000 www.allegromicro.com 11 A8438 Photoflash Capacitor Charger with IGBT Driver To understand the Timer mode, it is noted that the secondary winding charge current, ISecondary, decreases linearly at a rate of: Input Current Limiting The peak input current, ISWLIM , can be set to three levels by configuring the ILIM pin: ISWLIM Setting (A) 1.6 1.8 2.0 Float Pull up to IC supply voltage with a 1 to 10 kΩ resistor ILIM Pin Connection External ground dISecondary where: dt = VOUT LPrimary N2 (1) ISecondary is the secondary side current, LPrimary is the primary side inductance, and N is the transformer turns ratio (NSecondary / NPrimary). When the A8438 charges a fully-discharged photoflash capacitor, ISecondary decreases very slowly due to the low initial VOUT. The A8438 internal timer (Timer mode) sets a maximum timeframe of 18 μs for the off-time as long as the SW node voltage is greater than 1.2 V. When the off-time passes 18 μs, the internal MOSFET switch is turned on, initiating the next charging cycle . Lower input current offers the advantage of a longer battery lifetime. For faster charging time, however, use the highest current limit. ISWLIM may be adjusted during charging.

The minimum transformer turns ratio, N, LPrimary (μH), use the following formula: (Secondary:Primary) should be chosen based on the following formula: LPrimary ≥ 300 × 10−9 × VOUT N × ISWLIM . (3) N≥ where: VOUT (V) is the required output voltage level, VD_Drop (V) is the forward voltage drop of the output diode(s), VBATT (V) is the transformer battery supply, and 40 (V) is the rated voltage for the internal MOSFET switch, representing the maximum allowable reflected voltage from the output to the SW pin. For example, if VBATT is 3.5 V and VD_Drop is 1.7 V (which could be the case when two high voltage diodes were in series), and the desired VOUT is 320 V, then the turns ratio should be at least 8.9. In a worst case, when VBATT is highest and VD_Drop and VOUT are at their maximum tolerance limit, N will be higher. Taking VBATT = 5.5 V, VD_Drop = 2 V, and VOUT = 320 V × 102 % = 326.4 V as the worst case condition, N can be determined to be 9.5. In practice, always choose a turns ratio that is higher than the calculated value to give some safety margin. In the worst case example, a minimum turns ratio of N = 10 is recommended. Primary Inductance. The A8438 has a minimum switch off-time, VOUT + VD_Drop 40 − VBATT (2) Ideally, the charging time is not affected by transformer primary inductance. In practice, however, it is recommended that a primary inductance be chosen between 6 μH and 20 μH. When LPrimary is much lower than 6 μH, the converter operates at higher frequency, which increases switching loss proportionally. This leads to lower efficiency and longer charging time. When LPrimary is greater than 20 μH, the rating of the transformer must be dramatically increased to handle the required power density, and the series resistances are usually higher. A design that is optimized to achieve a small footprint solution would have an LPrimary of 7 to 14 μH, with minimized leakage inductance and secondary capacitance, and minimized primary and secondary series resistance. Please refer to the table Recommended Components for more information. Leakage Inductance and Secondary Capacitance. The trans- tOFF(min) , of 300 ns, to ensure correct SW node voltage sensing. As a loose guideline when choosing the primary inductance, former design should minimize the leakage inductance to ensure the turn-off voltage spike at the SW node does not exceed the 40 V limit. An achievable minimum leakage inductance for this application, however, is usually compromised by an increase in parasitic capacitance. Furthermore, the transformer secondary capacitance should be minimized. Any secondary capacitance is multiplied by N2 when reflected to the primary, leading to high initial current swings when the switch turns on, and to reduced efficiency.

This allows the voltage divider network, R1 through R3 (see figure 6), to be connected at the anode of the high voltage output diode, D1, eliminating power loss due to the feedback network when charging is complete. The output voltage can be adjusted by selecting proper values of the voltage divider resistors. Use the following equation to calculate values for Rx (Ω): internal MOSFET switch is closed, and the primary-side current starts to ramp-up. It can be calculated as: VD_ Peak = VOUT + N × V ATT . B (5) The peak current of the rectifying diode, ID_Peak, is calculated as : R1 + R2 VOUT = −1 . R3 VFB ID_ Peak = IPrimary_Peak / N . Input Capacitor Selection (6) (4) R1 and R2 together need to have a breakdown voltage of at least 300 V. A typical 1206 surface mount resistor has a 150 V breakdown voltage rating. It is recommended that R1 and R2 have similar values to ensure an even voltage stress between them. Recommended values are: R1 = R2 = 150 kΩ (1206) R3 = 1.2 kΩ (0603) which together yield a stop voltage of 303 V. Using higher resistance values for R1, R2, and R3 does not offer significant efficiency improvement, because the power loss of the feedback network occurs mainly during switch off-time, and because the off-time is only a small fraction of each charging cycle. Output Diode Selection Ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics are recommended for the input capacitor, C2. It should be rated at least 4.7 μF / 6.3 V to decouple the battery input, VBATT , at the primary of the transformer. When using a separate bias, VBIAS , for the A8438 VIN supply, connect at least a 0.1 μF / 6.3 V bypass capacitor to the VIN pin. Layout Guidelines Key to a good layout for the photoflash capacitor charger circuit is to keep the parasitics minimized on the power switch loop (transformer primary side) and the rectifier loop (secondary side). Use short, thick traces for connections to the transformer primary and SW pin. Output voltage sensing circuit elements must be kept away from switching nodes such as SW pin. Make sure that there is no GND plane underneath R1 and R2, because parasitic capacitance to ground will affect sensing accuracy. It is important that the ¯ ¯ DO ¯¯ NE ¯ ¯ signal trace be routed away from the transformer and other ¯¯ switching traces, in order to minimize noise pickup. In addition, high voltage isolation rules must be followed carefully to avoid breakdown failure of the circuit board.
