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).

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. 12 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2015–2017, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LP8861-Q1 LP8861-Q1 www.ti.com SNVSA50C – AUGUST 2015 – REVISED MAY 2017 8.2 Functional Block Diagram RISENSE VIN L Q D RGS CIN COUT CIN BOOST VIN VSENSE_N SD POWER-LINE FET CONTROL LDO LDO CLDO SW SYNC RFSET FSET PGND BOOST CONTROLLER FB RISET 4 x LED CURRENT SINK ISET TSET CURRENT SETTING OUT2 NTC TSENSE OUT3 tº PWM VDDIO OUT4 VDDIO/ EN FAULT OUT1 GND DIGITAL BLOCKS (FSM, ADAPTIVE VOLTAGE CONTROL, SAFETY LOGIC etc.) ANALOG BLOCKS (CLOCK GENERATOR, VREF, TSD etc.) EXPOSED PAD Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2015–2017, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LP8861-Q1 13 LP8861-Q1 SNVSA50C – AUGUST 2015 – REVISED MAY 2017 www.ti.com 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.

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 Block Diagram 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. Table 1.

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 (3) 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. 16 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2015–2017, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LP8861-Q1 LP8861-Q1 www.ti.com SNVSA50C – AUGUST 2015 – REVISED MAY 2017 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 CURRENT 100% 17.5% T1 T2 AMBIENT TEMPERATURE Figure 11.

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. OUT# SHORT STRING DETECTION LEVEL HIGH_COMP VOLTAGE THRESHOLD MID_COMP LOWEST VOLTAGE LOW_COMP CURRENT/PWM CONTROL 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. No actions Boost decreases voltage No actions All outputs are above headroom window HIGH_COMP Shorted LED fault (at least one output should Open LED fault when be between LOW_COMP VBOOST = VSET BOOST MAX and MID_COMP) Boost increases voltage Minimum headroom level reached Shorted LED fault Open LED fault MID_COMP HEADROOM WINDOW OUT4 OUT3 OUT1 OUT2 OUT4 OUT3 OUT1 OUT2 OUT4 OUT3 OUT1 OUT2 OUT4 OUT3 OUT1 OUT2 OUT4 OUT3 OUT1 OUT2 OUT4 OUT3 OUT1 OUT2 LOW_COMP Figure 15.

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. Table 3. Fault/Protection Schemes FAULT/ PROTECTION FAULT_ RECOVERY STATE ACTION Yes Yes 1.

After the first fault detection filter time is reduced to 50 ms for following recovery cycles. When device recovers and has been in ACTIVE mode for 160 ms, filter is increased back to 560 ms.

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.

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 Typical Application for 4 LED Strings Figure 24 shows the typical application for LP8861-Q1 which supports 4 LED strings with maximum current 100 mA and boost switching frequency of 300 kHz.

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: IOUTMAX + IRIPPLE For Boost '¶ (VOUT - VIN) VIN x Where IRIPPLE = (2 x L x f) VOUT ISAT > Where D = • • • • • • • • 26 (VOUT ± VIN) (VOUT) DQG '¶ = (1 - D) IRIPPLE - peak inductor current IOUTMAX - maximum load current VIN - minimum input voltage in application L - min inductor value including worst case tolerances ƒ - minimum switching frequency VOUT - output voltage D - Duty Cycle for CCM Operation VOUT - Output Voltage Submit Documentation Feedback (10) Copyright © 2015–2017, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LP8861-Q1 LP8861-Q1 www.ti.com 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.

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.

The Power Stage Designer™ Tools can be use for defining SEPIC component current and voltage ratings according to application: http://www.ti.com/tool/powerstage-designer 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 efficiency. Power Stage Designer™ Tools can be used for the SEPIC inductance calculation: http://www.ti.com/tool/powerstage-designer.

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. 34 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2015–2017, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LP8861-Q1 LP8861-Q1 www.ti.com SNVSA50C – AUGUST 2015 – REVISED MAY 2017 11.2 Layout Example RISENSE VIN RGS LDO 1 VIN VSENSE_N 20 2 LDO SD 19 3 FSET SW 18 RFSET 4 PGND 17 FAULT 5 FB 16 SYNC 6 OUT1 15 PWM 7 OUT2 14 TSENSE 8 OUT3 13 TSET 9 OUT4 12 GND 11 RISET 10 ISET VBOOST LED STRINGS VDDIO/EN Figure 35.
