2 Applications
•
The boost/SEPIC converter has adaptive output
voltage control based on the LED current sink
headroom voltages. This feature minimizes the power
consumption by adjusting the voltage to lowest
sufficient level in all conditions. The boost/SEPIC
converter supports spread spectrum for switching
frequency and an external synchronization with
dedicated pin. A wide-range adjustable frequency
allows the LP8861-Q1 to avoid disturbance for AM
radio band.

Stresses beyond those listed under absolute maximum ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under recommended operating
conditions is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
All voltages are with respect to the potential at the GND pins.
Internal thermal shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent damage. Thermal shutdown engages at TJ = 165°C (typical) and
disengages at TJ = 145°C (typical).
In applications where high power dissipation and/or poor package thermal resistance is present, the maximum ambient temperature may
have to be derated. Maximum ambient temperature (TA-MAX) is dependent on the maximum operating junction temperature (TJ-MAX-OP =
150°C), the maximum power dissipation of the device in the application (PD-MAX), and the junction-to ambient thermal resistance of the
part/package in the application (RθJA), as given by the following equation: TA-MAX = TJ-MAX-OP – (RθJA × PD-MAX).
For detailed soldering specifications and information, refer to the PowerPAD™ Thermally Enhanced Package Application Note
(SLMA002).

Output Current Accuracy is the difference between the actual value of the output current and programmed value of this current.
Matching is the maximum difference from the average. For the constant current sinks on the part (OUT1 to OUT4), the following are
determined: the maximum output current (MAX), the minimum output current (MIN), and the average output current of all outputs (AVG).
Matching number is calculated: (MAX-MIN)/AVG. The typical specification provided is the most likely norm of the matching figure for all
parts. LED current sinks were characterized with 1-V headroom voltage. Note that some manufacturers have different definitions in use.
Saturation voltage is defined as the voltage when the LED current has dropped 10% from the value measured at 1 V.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The LP8861-Q1 is a highly integrated LED driver for automotive infotainment, lighting systems, and mediumsized LCD backlight applications. It includes a boost/SEPIC converter with an integrated FET, an internal LDO,
and four LED current sinks. A VDDIO/EN pin provides the supply voltage for digital IOs (PWM and SYNC inputs)
and at the same time enables the device.
The switching frequency on the boost/SEPIC regulator is set by a resistor connected to the FSET pin. The
maximum voltage is set by a resistive divider connected to the FB pin. For the best efficiency the voltage is
adapted automatically to the minimum necessary level needed to drive the LED strings. This is done by
monitoring LED output voltage in real time. For EMI reduction and control two optional features are available:
• Spread spectrum, which reduces EMI noise spikes at the switching frequency and its harmonic frequencies.
• Boost/SEPIC can be synchronized to an external clock frequency connected to the SYNC pin.
The four constant current sinks for driving the LEDs provide current up to 100 mA per sink and can be tied
together to get a higher current. Value for the current value is set with a resistor connected to the ISET pin.
Current sinks that are not used must be connected to the ground. Grounded current sinks are disabled and
excluded from the adaptive voltage and open/short LED fault detection loop.
Brightness is controlled with the PWM input. Frequency range for the input PWM is from 100 Hz to 20 kHz. LED
output PWM follows the input PWM so the output frequency is equal to the input frequency.
The LP8861-Q1 has extensive fault detection features:
• Open-string and shorted LED detections
– LED fault detection prevents system overheating in case of open or short in some of the LED strings
• VIN input-overvoltage protection
– Threshold sensing from VIN pin
• VIN input undervoltage protection
– Threshold sensing from VIN pin
• VIN input overcurrent protection
– Threshold sensing across RISENSE resistor
• Thermal shutdown in case of die overtemperature
• LED thermal protection with a external NTC (optional feature)
Fault condition is indicated with the FAULT output pin. Additionally, the LP8861-Q1 supports control for an
optional power-line FET allowing further protection in boost/SEPIC overcurrent state by disconnecting the device
from power-line in fault condition. With the power-line FET control it is possible to protect device, boost
components, and LEDs in case of shorted VBOOST and too-high VIN voltage. Power-line FET control also features
soft-start which reduces the peak current from the power line during start-up.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Integrated Boost/SEPIC Converter
The LP8861-Q1 boost/SEPIC DC-DC converter generates supply voltage for the LEDs. The maximum output
voltage VMAX BOOST is defined by an external resistive divider (R1, R2).
Maximum voltage must be chosen based on the maximum voltage required for LED strings. Recommended VMAX
BOOST is about 30% higher than maximum LED string voltage. DC-DC output voltage is adjusted automatically
based on LED current sink headroom voltage. Maximum, minimum, and initial boost voltages can be calculated
with Equation 1:

Feature Description (continued)
In most cases lower frequency has higher system efficiency. Boost parameters are chosen automatically during
start-up according to the selected switching frequency (see Table 2). In boost mode a 15-pF capacitor CFB must
be placed across resistor R1 when operating in 300 kHz ... 500 kHz range (see Figure 24). When operating in
the 1.8-MHz...2.2-MHz range, CFB = 4.7 pF (see Figure 29).

Boost clock can be driven by an external SYNC signal between 300 kHz…2.2 MHz. If the external
synchronization input disappears, boost continues operation at the frequency defined by RFSET resistor. When
external frequency disappears and SYNC pin level is low, boost continues operation without spread spectrum
immediately. If SYNC remains high, boost continues switching with spread spectrum enabled after 256 µs.
External SYNC frequency must be 1.2…1.5 times higher than the frequency defined by the RFSET resistor.
Minimum frequency setting with RFSET is 250 kHz to support minimum switching frequency with external clock
frequency 300 kHz.
The optional spread-spectrum feature (±3% from central frequency, 1-kHz modulation frequency) reduces EMI
noise spikes at the switching frequency and its harmonic frequencies. When external synchronization is used,
spread spectrum is not available.

Parameters are for reference only.
Due to current sensing comparator delay the actual minimum off time is 6 ns (typical) longer than in the table.
Boost SW pin DC current is limited to 2 A (typical). To support warm start transient condition the current limit is
automatically increased to 2.5 A for a short period of 1.5 seconds when a 2-A limit is reached.
NOTE
Application condition where the 2-A limit is exceeded continuously is not allowed. In this
case the current limit would be 2 A for 1.5 seconds followed by 2.5-A limit for 1.5 seconds,
and this 3-second period repeats.
To keep switching voltage within safe levels there is a 48-V limit comparator in the event that FB loop is broken.
8.3.2 Internal LDO
The internal LDO regulator converts the input voltage at VIN to a 4.3-V output voltage. The LDO regulator
supplies internal and external circuitry. The maximum external load is 5 mA. Connect LDO output with a
minimum of 1-µF ceramic capacitor to ground as close to the LDO pin as possible. If an external voltage higher
than 4.5 V is connected to LDO pin, the internal LDO is disabled, and the internal circuitry is powered from the
external power supply. VIN and VSENSE_N pins must be connected to the same external voltage as LDO pin.
See Figure 29 for application schematic example.
8.3.3 LED Current Sinks
8.3.3.1 Current Sink Configuration
The LP8861-Q1 detects LED current sinks configuration during start-up. Any sink connected to the ground is
disabled and excluded from the adaptive boost control and fault detection.
8.3.3.2 Current Setting
Maximum current for the LED current sinks is controlled with external RISET resistor. RISET value for target
maximum current can be calculated using Equation 3:
RISET = 2342 / (IOUT ± 2.5)
where
•
•
RISET is current setting resistor, kΩ
IOUT is output current per output, mA

8.3.3.3 Brightness Control
The LP8861-Q1 controls the brightness of the display with conventional PWM. Output PWM directly follows the
input PWM. Input PWM frequency can be in the range of 100 Hz to 20 kHz.
8.3.4 Power-Line FET Control
The LP8861-Q1 has a control pin (SD) for driving the gate of an external power-line FET. Power-line FET is an
optional feature; an example schematic is shown in Figure 24. Power-line FET limits inrush current by turning on
gradually when the device is enabled (VDDIO/EN = high, VIN > VGS). Inrush current is controlled by increasing
sink current for the FET gradually to 230 μA.

In shutdown the LP8861-Q1 turns off the power-line FET and prevents the possible boost and LEDs leakage.
The power switch also turns off in case of any fault which causes the device to enter FAULT RECOVERY state.
8.3.5 LED Current Dimming With External Temperature Sensor
The LP8861-Q1 has an optional feature to decrease automatically LED current when LED overheating is
detected with an external NTC sensor. An example of the behavior is shown in Figure 11. When the NTC
temperature reaches T1, the LP8861-Q1 starts to decrease the LED current. When the LED current has reduced
to 17.5% of the nominal value, current turns off until temperature returns to the operation range. When TSET pin
is grounded this feature is disabled. Temperature T1 and de-rate slope are defined by external resistors as
explained below.

LED driver output current is:
ILED = (ISET_SCALED – ITSENSE ) x 2 000

8.3.6.1 Adaptive Boost Control and Functionality of LED Fault Comparators
Adaptive boost control function adjusts the boost output voltage to the minimum sufficient voltage for proper LED
current sink operation. The output with highest VF LED string is detected and boost output voltage adjusted
accordingly. Boost adaptive control voltage step size is defined by maximum boost voltage settings, VSTEP =
(VMAX BOOST - VMIN BOOST) / 256. Periodic down pressure is applied to the target boost voltage to achieve better
system efficiency.
Every LED current sink has 3 comparators for an adaptive boost control and fault detection. Comparator outputs
are filtered, filtering time is 1 µs.

Figure 14. Comparators for Adaptive Voltage Control and LED Fault Detection
Figure 15 illustrates different cases which cause boost voltage increase, decrease, or generate faults. In normal
operation, voltage at all the OUT# pins is between LOW_COMP and MID_COMP levels and boost voltage stays
constant. LOW_COMP level is the minimum for proper LED current sink operation, 1.1 × VSAT + 0.2 V (typical).
MID_COMP level is 1.1 × VSAT + 1.2 V (typical) — that is, typical headroom window is 1 V.
When voltage at all the OUT# pins increases above MID_COMP level, boost voltage adapts downwards.
When voltage at any of the OUT# pins falls below LOW_COMP threshold, boost voltage adapts upwards. In the
condition where boost voltage reaches the maximum and there are one or more outputs still below LOW_COMP
level, an open LED fault is detected.
VOUT VOLTAGE
HIGH_COMP level, 6 V typical, is the threshold for shorted LED detection. When the voltage of one or more of
the OUT# pins increases above HIGH_COMP level and at least one of the other outputs is within the normal
headroom window, shorted LED fault is detected.

8.3.6.2 Overview of the Fault/Protection Schemes
The LP8861-Q1 fault detection behavior is described in Table 3. Detected faults (excluding LED faults) cause the
device to enter FAULT_RECOVERY state. In FAULT_RECOVERY the boost and LED outputs of LP8861-Q1 are
disabled, power-line FET is turned off, and the FAULT pin is pulled low. Device recovers automatically and
enters normal operating mode (ACTIVE) after a recovery time of 100 ms if the fault condition has disappeared.
When recovery is successful, the FAULT pin is released.
In case a LED fault is detected, device continues normal operation and only the faulty string is disabled. Fault is
indicated via FAULT pin which can be released by toggling VDDIO/EN pin low for a short period of 2…20 µs.
LEDs are turned off for this period but device stays in ACTIVE mode. If VDDIO/EN is low longer, device goes to
STANDBY and restarts when EN goes high again.

8.4 Device Functional Modes
8.4.1 Device States
The LP8861-Q1 enters STANDBY mode when the internal LDO output rises above the power-on reset level,
VLDO > VPOR_R. In STANDBY mode device is able to detect the VDDIO/EN signal. When VDDIO/EN is pulled
high, device powers up. During soft start the external power line FET is opened gradually to limit inrush current.
Soft start is followed by boost start, during which time boost voltage is ramped to the initial value. After boost
start LED outputs are sensed to detect grounded current sinks. Grounded current sinks are disabled and
excluded from the boost voltage control loop.
If a fault condition is detected, the LP8861-Q1 enters FAULT_RECOVERY state. In this state power line FET is
switched off and both the boost and LED current sinks are disabled. Fault that cause the device to enter
FAULT_RECOVERY are listed in Figure 22. When LED open or short is detected, faulty string is disabled but
LP8861-Q1 stays in ACTIVE mode.

9 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
The LP8861-Q1 is designed for automotive applications, and an input voltage VIN is intended to be connected to
the car battery. Device circuitry is powered from the internal LDO which, alternatively, can be used as external
VDD voltage — in that case, external voltage must be in the 4.5-V to 5.5-V range.
The LP8861-Q1 uses a simple four-wire control:
• VDDIO/EN for enable
• PWM input for brightness control
• SYNC pin for boost synchronisation (optional)
• FAULT output to indicate fault condition (optional)
9.2 Typical Applications

9.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure
9.2.1.2.1 Inductor Selection
There are two main considerations when choosing an inductor; the inductor must not saturate, and the inductor
current ripple must be small enough to achieve the desired output voltage ripple. Different saturation current
rating specifications are followed by different manufacturers so attention must be given to details. Saturation
current ratings are typically specified at 25°C. However, ratings at the maximum ambient temperature of
application should be requested from the manufacturer. Shielded inductors radiate less noise and are preferred.
The saturation current must be greater than the sum of the maximum load current and the worst-case average to
peak inductor current. Equation 10 shows the worst-case conditions:

SNVSA50C – AUGUST 2015 – REVISED MAY 2017
As a result the inductor should be selected according to the ISAT. A more conservative and recommended
approach is to choose an inductor that has a saturation current rating greater than the maximum current limit. A
saturation current rating at least 3 A is recommended for most applications. See Table 2 for inductance
recommendation for the different switch frequency ranges. The inductor’s resistance should be less than 300 mΩ
for good efficiency.
See detailed information in Understanding Boost Power Stages in Switch Mode Power Supplies (SLVA061).
Power Stage Designer™ Tools can be used for the boost calculation: http://www.ti.com/tool/powerstagedesigner.
9.2.1.2.2 Output Capacitor Selection
A ceramic and electrolytic capacitors should have sufficient voltage rating. The DC-bias effect in ceramic
capacitors can reduce the effective capacitance by up to 80%, which needs to be considered in capacitance
value selection. Capacitance recommendation for different switching frequency range is shown in Table 2. To
minimize audible of noise ceramic capacitors their geometric size is usually minimized.
9.2.1.2.3 Input Capacitor Selection
A ceramic and electrolytic capacitors should have sufficient voltage rating. The DC-bias effect in ceramic
capacitors can reduce the effective capacitance by up to 80%, which needs to be considered in capacitance
value selection. Capacitance recommendation for different switching frequency range is shown in Table 2. To
minimize audible of noise ceramic capacitors their geometric size is usually minimized.
9.2.1.2.4 LDO Output Capacitor
A ceramic capacitor with at least 10-V voltage rating is recommended for the output capacitor of the LDO. The
DC-bias effect in ceramic capacitors can reduce the effective capacitance by up to 80%, which needs to be
considered in capacitance value selection. Typically a 1-µF capacitor is sufficient.
9.2.1.2.5 Diode
A Schottky diode should be used for the boost output diode. Ordinary rectifier diodes should not be used,
because slow switching speeds and long recovery times degrade the efficiency and the load regulation. Diode
rating for peak repetitive current should be greater than inductor peak current (up to 3 A) to ensure reliable
operation. Average current rating should be greater than the maximum output current. Schottky diodes with a low
forward drop and fast switching speeds are ideal for increasing efficiency. Choose a reverse breakdown voltage
of the Schottky diode significantly larger than the output voltage.
9.2.1.2.6 Power Line Transistor
A pFET transistor with necessary voltage rating (VDS at least 5 V higher than max input voltage) should be used.
Current rating for the FET should be the same as input peak current or greater. Transfer characteristic is very
important for pFET. VGS for open transistor must be less than VIN. A 20-kΩ resistor between pFET gate and
source is sufficient.
9.2.1.2.7 Input Current Sense Resistor
A high-power 50-mΩ resistor should be used for sensing the boost input current. Power rating can be calculated
from the input current and sense resistor resistance value. Increasing RISENSE decreases VIN OCP current
proportionally.

9.2.3 SEPIC Mode Application
When LED string voltage can be above or below VIN voltage, SEPIC configuration can be used. The SW pin
voltage is equal to the sum of the input voltage and output voltage in SEPIC mode — this fact limits the
maximum input voltage in this mode. LED current sinks not used should be connected to ground. External
frequency can be used to synchronize boost/SEPIC switching frequency, and external frequency can be
modulated to spread switching frequency spectrum.

9.2.3.2.1 Diode
A Schottky diode with a low forward drop and fast switching speed should be used for the SEPIC output diode.
Do not use ordinary rectifier diodes, because slow switching speeds and long recovery times degrade the
efficiency and load regulation. The diode must be able to handle peak repetitive current greater than the
integrated FET peak current (SW pin limit), thus 3 A or higher must be used to ensure reliable operation.
Average current rating should be greater than the maximum output current. Choose a diode with reverse
breakdown larger than the sum of input voltage and output voltage.
9.2.3.2.2 Inductor
Coupled or uncoupled inductors can be used in SEPIC mode. Coupled inductor typically provides better

10 Power Supply Recommendations
The LP8861-Q1 device is designed to operate from a car battery. The device should be protected from reverse
voltage polarity and voltage dump over 50 V. The resistance of the input supply rail must be low enough so that
the input current transient does not cause too high drop at the LP8861-Q1 VIN pin. If the input supply is
connected by using long wires additional bulk capacitance may be required in addition to the ceramic bypass
capacitors in the VIN line.
11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
Figure 35 is a layout recommendation for the LP8861-Q1 used to demonstrate the principles of good layout. This
layout can be adapted to the actual application layout if or where possible. It is important that all boost
components are close to the chip, and the high current traces must be wide enough. By placing boost
components on one side of the chip it is easy to keep the ground plane intact below the high current paths. This
way other chip pins can be routed more easily without splitting the ground plane. Bypass LDO capacitor must as
close as possible to the device.
Here are some main points to help the PCB layout work:
• Current loops need to be minimized:
– For low frequency the minimal current loop can be achieved by placing the boost components as close as
possible to the SW and PGND pins. Input and output capacitor grounds need to be close to each other to
minimize current loop size
– Minimal current loops for high frequencies can be achieved by making sure that the ground plane is intact
under the current traces. High-frequency return currents try to find route with minimum impedance, which
is the route with minimum loop area, not necessarily the shortest path. Minimum loop area is formed when
return current flows just under the positive current route in the ground plane, if the ground plane is intact
under the route
• GND plane needs to be intact under the high current boost traces to provide shortest possible return path and
smallest possible current loops for high frequencies.
• Current loops when the boost switch is conducting and not conducting need to be on the same direction in
optimal case.
• Inductors must be placed so that the current flows in the same direction as in the current loops. Rotating
inductor 180° changes current direction.
• Use separate power and noise-free grounds. Power ground is used for boost converter return current and
noise-free ground for more sensitive signals, like LDO bypass capacitor grounding as well as grounding the
GND pin of the device itself.
• Boost output feedback voltage to LEDs need to be taken out after the output capacitors, not straight from the
diode cathode.
• Place LDO 1-µF bypass capacitor as close as possible to the LDO pin.
• Input and output capacitors need strong grounding (wide traces, many vias to GND plane).
• If two output capacitors are used they need symmetrical layout to get both capacitors working ideally.
• Output ceramic capacitors have DC-bias effect. If the output capacitance is too low, it can cause boost to
become unstable on some loads; this increases EMI. DC bias characteristics need to be obtained from the
component manufacturer; DC bias is not taken into account on component tolerance. X5R/X7R capacitors are
recommended.
