TPS61158 30-V WLED Driver with Integrated Power Diode
1 Features
3 Description
•
•
•
With a 30V-rated integrated switch FET and power
diode, the TPS61158 is a boost converter that drives
LEDs in series. The boost converter runs at 750-kHz
fixed switching frequency to reduce output ripple,
improve conversion efficiency, and allows for the use
of small external components.

Power Diode
750-kHz Switching Frequency
Flexible Digital and PWM Brightness Control

Integrated Loop Compensation
Built-in Soft Start
Built-in WLED Open protection
Thermal Shutdown
The default white LED current is set with the external
sensor resistor RFB, and the feedback voltage is
regulated to 200 mV, as shown in Typical Application.
During the operation, the LED current can be
controlled using the 1-wire digital interface
(EasyScale™ protocol) through the CTRL pin.
Alternatively, a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal
can be applied to the CTRL pin through which the
duty cycle determines the feedback reference
voltage. In either digital or PWM mode, the
TPS61158 does not burst the LED current; therefore,
it does not generate audible noises on the output
capacitor. For maximum protection, the device
features integrated open LED protection that disables
the TPS61158 to prevent the output voltage from
exceeding the device absolute maximum voltage
ratings during open LED conditions.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The TPS61158 is a high efficiency boost converter with integrated power diode in a small package size. The
device is ideal for driving white LED in series. The serial LED connection provides even illumination by sourcing
the same output current through all LEDs, eliminating the need for expensive factory calibration. The device
integrates a 30-V, 0.6-A low-side switch MOSFET and a 30-V power diode, and operates in pulse width
modulation (PWM) with 750-kHz fixed switching frequency. For operation see the block diagram. The duty cycle
of the converter is set by the error amplifier output and the current signal applied to the PWM control comparator.
The control architecture is based on traditional current-mode control; therefore, slope compensation is added to
the current signal to allow stable operation for duty cycles larger than 50%. The feedback loop regulates the FB
pin to a low reference voltage (200 mV typical), reducing the power dissipation in the current sense resistor.

7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 Soft Start-Up
Soft-start circuitry is integrated into the device to avoid a high inrush current during start-up. After the device is
enabled, the voltage at FB pin ramps up to the reference voltage in 32 steps with each step taking 341 μs. This
ensures that the output voltage rises slowly to reduce the input current. Additionally, during the start up process,
the current limit of the switch is set to half of the normal current limit specification. During this period, the input
current is kept below 360 mA (typical). See the start-up waveform of a typical example.

Feature Description (continued)
7.3.2 Shutdown
The TPS61158 enters shutdown mode when the CTRL voltage is logic low for more than 3.5 ms. During
shutdown, the input supply current for the device is less than 1 μA (maximum). Although the internal FET does
not switch in shutdown mode, there is still a DC current path between the input and the LEDs through the
inductor and the power diode. The minimum forward voltage of the LED array must exceed the maximum input
voltage to ensure that the LEDs remain off in shutdown. In the typical application with two or more LEDs, the
forward voltage is large enough to reverse bias the diode and keep leakage current low.
7.3.3 Current Program
The FB voltage is regulated by a low 0.2-V reference voltage. The LED current is programmed externally using a
current-sense resistor RFB in series with the LED string. The value of the RFB is calculated using Equation 1:
V
RFB = FB
ILED
where
•
•
•
•
RFB = current sense resistor at FB pin
VFB = 200 mV (regulated voltage of FB pin)
ILED = full-scale output current of LEDs
The output current tolerance depends on the FB voltage accuracy and the current sensor resistor accuracy. (1)
7.3.4 Undervoltage Lockout
An undervoltage lockout prevents operation of the device at input voltages below typical 2.2 V. When the input
voltage is below the undervoltage threshold, the device is shut down, and the internal switch FET is turned off. If
the input voltage rises by undervoltage lockout hysteresis, the device restarts.
7.3.5 Open LED Protection
Open LED protection circuitry prevents device damage as the result of white LED disconnection. The TPS61158
monitors the voltages at the VOUT pin and FB pin. The circuitry turns off the switch FET and shuts down the
device completely if both of the following two conditions are met: 1) the VOUT voltage reaches OVP threshold
(28.2 V typical); and 2) FB voltage is lower than half of its regulation voltage. This means the LED string is open
or the FB pin is short to ground. As a result, the output voltage falls to the level of the input supply. The device
remains in shutdown mode until it is enabled by pulling down the CTRL pin logic low for at least 3.5 ms and then
pulling it high.
7.3.6 Thermal Shutdown
An internal thermal shutdown turns off the device when the typical junction temperature of 160°C is exceeded.
The device is released from shutdown automatically when the junction temperature decreases by 15°C.
7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 LED Brightness Dimming Mode Selection
The CTRL pin is used for the control input for both dimming modes, PWM dimming and 1 wire dimming. The
dimming mode for the TPS61158 is selected each time the device is enabled. The default dimming mode is
PWM dimming. To enter the 1 wire mode, the following digital pattern on the CTRL pin must be recognized by
the device every time the device starts from the shutdown mode.
1. Pull CTRL pin high to enable the TPS61158 and to start the 1-wire detection window.
2. After the EasyScale detection delay (tes_delay, 100 μs) expires, drive CTRL low for more than the EasyScale
detection time (tes_detect, 450 μs).
3. The CTRL pin has to be low for more than EasyScale detection time before the EasyScale detection window
(tes_win, 3.5 ms) expires. EasyScale detection window starts from the first CTRL pin low-to-high transition.

Device Functional Modes (continued)
The device immediately enters the 1 wire mode once the above 3 conditions are met. The EasyScale
communication can start before the detection window expires. Once the dimming mode is programmed, it can
not be changed without another start up. This means the device needs to be shutdown by pulling the CTRL low
for 3.5 ms and restarts. See Figure 8 for a graphical explanation.

7.4.1.1 PWM Brightness Dimming
When the CTRL pin is constantly high, the FB voltage is regulated to 200 mV typically. However, the CTRL pin
allows a PWM signal to reduce this regulation voltage; therefore, it achieves LED brightness dimming. The
relationship between the duty cycle and FB voltage is given by Equation 2.
VFB = Duty × 200 mV
where
•
•
Duty = duty cycle of the PWM signal
200 mV = internal reference voltage
(2)
As shown in Figure 9, the device chops up the internal 200-mV reference voltage at the duty cycle of the PWM
signal. The pulse signal is then filtered by an internal low pass filter. The output of the filter is connected to the
error amplifier as the reference voltage for the FB pin regulation. Therefore, although a PWM signal is used for
brightness dimming, only the WLED DC current is modulated, which is often referred as analog dimming. This
eliminates the audible noise which often occurs when the LED current is pulsed in replica of the frequency and
duty cycle of PWM control. Unlike other scheme which filters the PWM signal for analog dimming, the TPS61158
regulation voltage is independent of the PWM logic voltage level which often has large variations.
For optimum performance, use the PWM dimming frequency in the range of 20 kHz to 100 kHz. Since the CTRL
pin is logic only pin, adding an external RC filter applied to the pin does not work.

7.4.1.1.1 Digital 1-Wire Brightness Dimming
The CTRL pin features a simple digital interface to allow digital brightness control. The digital dimming can save
the processor power and battery life as it does not require a PWM signal all the time, and the processor can
enter idle mode if available.
The TPS61158 adopts the EasyScale™ protocol for the digital dimming, which can program the FB voltage to
any of the 32 steps with single command. The step increment increases with the voltage to produce pseudo
logarithmic curve for the brightness step. See the Table 1 for the FB pin voltage steps. The default step is full
scale when the device is first enabled (VFB = 200 mV). The programmed reference voltage is stored in an internal
register. A power reset clears the register value and reset it to default.
7.4.1.1.2 Easyscale: 1-Wire Digital Dimming
EasyScale is a simple but flexible one-pin interface to configure the FB voltage. The interface is based on a
master-slave structure, where the master is typically a microcontroller or application processor. Figure 10 and
Table 2 give an overview of the protocol. The protocol consists of a device specific address byte and a data byte.
The device specific address byte is fixed to 58 hex. The data byte consists of five bits for information, two
address bits ("00"), and the RFA bit. The RFA bit set to high indicates the Request for Acknowledge condition.
The Acknowledge condition is only applied if the protocol was received correctly. The advantage of EasyScale
compared with other one pin interfaces is that its bit detection is in a large extent independent from the bit
transmission rate. It can automatically detect bit rates between 1.1 kBit/sec and up to 100 kBit/sec.

Figure 13. EasyScale— Bit Coding
All bits are transmitted MSB first and LSB last. Figure 11 shows the protocol without acknowledge request (Bit
RFA = 0), Figure 12 with acknowledge (Bit RFA = 1) request. Prior to both bytes, device address byte and data
byte, a start condition must be applied. For this, the CTRL pin must be pulled high for at least tstart (3.5μs) before
the bit transmission starts with the falling edge. If the CTRL pin is already at high level, no start condition is
needed prior to the device address byte. The transmission of each byte is closed with an End of Stream
condition for at least tEOS (3.5μs).
The bit detection is based on a Logic Detection scheme, where the criterion is the relation between tLOW and
tHIGH (refer to Figure 13). It can be simplified to:
• Low Bit (Logic 0): tLOW ≥ 2 x tHIGH
• High Bit (Logic 1): tHIGH ≥ 2 x tLOW
The bit detection starts with a falling edge on the CTRL pin and ends with the next falling edge. Depending on
the relation between tHIGH and tLOW, the logic 0 or 1 is detected.
The acknowledge condition is only applied if:
• Acknowledge is requested by setting RFA bit to 1.
• The transmitted device address matches with the device address of the device.
• Device address byte and data byte are received correctly.
If above conditions are met, after tvalACK (3.5 μs) delay from the moment when the last falling edge of the protocol
is detected, an internal ACKN-MOSFET is turned on to pull the CTRL pin low for the time tACKN (900 μs
maximum), then the Acknowledge condition is valid. During the tvalACK delay, the master controller keeps the line
low; after the delay, it should release the line by outputting high impedance and then detect the acknowledge
condition. If it reads back a logic 0, it means the device has received the command correctly. The CTRL pin can
be used again by the master when the acknowledge condition ends after tACKN time.
Note that the acknowledge condition can only be requested in case the master device has an open drain output.
For a push-pull output stage, the use a series resistor in the CTRL line to limit the current to 500 μA is
recommended to for such cases as:
• an accidentally requested acknowledge, or
• to protect the internal ACKN-MOSFET.

8 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.
8.1 Application Information
The TPS61158 provides a high-performance LED lighting solution for mobile handsets and other low power LCD
backlit displays. The device can drive from 2 to 8 series LEDs in a compact and high efficient solution. An
internal rectifying diode eliminates the need for an external Schottky. The LED current is controlled via a logic
level PWM input with an internal low pass filter. This low pass filtered (analog) dimming, reduces the output
capacitor requirement and provides noise free current control.

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
8.2.2.1 Inductor Selection
The selection of the inductor affects steady state operation as well as transient behavior, loop stability and the
power conversion efficiency. These factors make it the most important component in power regulator design.
There are three important inductor specifications, inductor value, DC resistance, and saturation current.
Considering inductor value alone is not enough. The inductor value determines the inductor ripple current.
Choose an inductor that can handle the necessary peak current without saturating, according to half of the peakto-peak ripple current given by Equation 4, plus the inductor DC current given by:
V
´I
Iin _ DC = OUT OUT
VIN ´ h
(3)
Inductor values can have ±20% or even ±30% tolerance with no current bias. When the inductor current
approaches saturation level, its inductance can decrease 20% to 35% from the 0A value depending on how the
inductor vendor defines saturation. When selecting an inductor, please make sure its rated current, especially the
saturation current, is larger than its peak current during the operation. Using an inductor with a smaller
inductance value causes larger current ripple. This reduces the boost converter’s maximum output current,
causes large input voltage ripple and reduces efficiency. Large inductance value provides much more output
current and higher conversion efficiency. For these reasons, a 10-μH to 22-μH inductor value range is
recommended. A 22-μH inductor optimizes the efficiency for most application while maintaining low inductor
peak-to-peak ripple. Table 4 lists the recommended inductors for TPS61158. TPS61158 has built-in slope
compensation to avoid sub-harmonic oscillation associated with current mode control. If the inductor value is
lower than 10 μH, the slope compensation may not be adequate, and the loop can be unstable. Therefore,
customers need to verify the inductor in their application if it is different from the recommended values.

8.2.2.2 Maximum Output Current
The overcurrent limit in a boost converter limits the maximum input current and thus maximum input power for a
given input voltage. Maximum output power is less than maximum input power due to power conversion losses.
Therefore, the current limit setting, input voltage, output voltage and efficiency can all change maximum current
output. The current limit clamps the peak inductor current; therefore, the ripple has to be subtracted to derive
maximum DC current. The ripple current is a function of switching frequency, inductor value and duty cycle. The
following equations take into account of all the above factors for maximum output current calculation.

•
IOUT_max = maximum output current of the boost converter
ILIM = overcurrent limit
η = boost efficiency (85%, typical)
(5)
To calculate the maximum output current in the worst case, use the minimum input voltage, maximum output
voltage and maximum forward voltage of internal power diode (1 V). In order to leave enough design margin, the
minimum current limit value 0.5 A, the minimum switching frequency 600 kHz, the inductor value with –30%
tolerance, and a low power conversion efficiency, such as 80% or lower are recommended for the calculation.
For instance, when minimum VIN is 3 V, 8 LEDs output equivalent to VOUT is 26 V, and the inductor is 22 µH,
then the maximum output current is 33 mA in the worst case.
8.2.2.3 Input and Output Capacitor Selection
The output capacitor is mainly selected to meet the requirements for the output ripple and loop stability. This
ripple voltage is related to the capacitor’s capacitance and its equivalent series resistance (ESR). Assuming a
capacitor with zero ESR, the minimum capacitance needed for a given ripple can be calculated by
- VIN ) ´ IOUT
(V
COUT = OUT
VOUT ´ FS ´ Vripple
where
•
Vripple = peak-to-peak output ripple.
(6)
The additional output ripple component caused by ESR is calculated using Equation 7:
Vripple_ESR = IOUT × RESR
(7)
Due to its low ESR, Vripple_ESR can be neglected for ceramic capacitors, but must be considered if tantalum or
electrolytic capacitors are used.
Care must be taken when evaluating a ceramic capacitor’s derating under DC bias, aging and AC signal. The DC
bias can significantly reduce capacitance. Ceramic capacitors can lose as much as 50% of its capacitance at its
rated voltage. Therefore, leave the margin on the voltage rating to ensure adequate capacitance at the required
output voltage.
The capacitor in the range of 1 μF to 10 μF is recommended for input side. The output requires a capacitor in the
range of 0.47 μF to 2.2 μF. The output capacitor affects the loop stability of the boost regulator. If the output
capacitor is below the range, the boost regulator can potentially become unstable.

10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
As for all switching power supplies, especially those high frequency and high current ones, layout is an important
design step. If layout is not carefully done, the regulator could suffer from instability as well as noise problems.
Therefore, use wide and short traces for high current paths. The input capacitor CIN needs to be close to the VIN
pin and GND pin in order to reduce the input ripple seen by the device. If possible, choose higher capacitance
value for it. If the ripple seen at VIN pin is so large that it affects the boost loop stability or internal circuits
operation, R1 and C1 is recommended to compose a filter to decouple the noise (refer to Figure 24). The SW pin
carries high current with fast rising and falling edges. Therefore, the connection between the SW pin to the
inductor should be kept as short and wide as possible. The output capacitor COUT should be put close to VOUT
pin. It is also beneficial to have the ground of COUT close to the GND pin since there is large ground return
current flowing between them. FB resistor should be put close to FB pin. When laying out signal grounds, it is
recommended to use short traces separated from power ground traces, and connect them together at a single
point close to the GND pin.
