Dual Output Boost – LED Driver / LCD Bias
P RODUCTION D ATASHEET
DESCRIPTION The LX1744 is a compact high efficiency step-up boost regulator for driving white or color LEDs in LCD lighting applications while supplying the necessary LCD bias voltage with an additional integrated boost converter. Designed for maximum efficiency and featuring a psuedo-hysteretic PFM topology (that decreases output voltage ripple), the LX1744 minimizes system cost and condenses layout area making it ideal for PDA, smart-phone, and digital camera applications. While the LCD Bias generation is implemented using an internal N-Channel MOSFET, the LED driver utilizes an external N-Channel MOSFET in order to maintain maximum efficiency along with flexible power requirements. The LX1744’s control circuitry is optimized for portable systems with a shutdown current of less than 1µA. The input voltage range of 1.6V to 6.0V allows for a wide selection of system battery voltages and start-up is guaranteed at a VIN equal to 1.6V with sustained operation as low as 1.1V. The maximum LED drive current is easily programmed using one external current sense resistor in series with the LEDs. In this configuration, LED current provides a feedback signal to the FB pin, maintaining constant current regardless of varying LED forward voltage (VF). Depending on the MOSFET selected, the LX1744 is capable of achieving an LED drive in excess of 1.0W. The LX1744 provides simple dynamic adjustment of the LED drive current (0% to 100% full range dimming) and the LCD Bias output voltage (up to ±15% typ) through separate IC interfaces. Each interface has an internal RC filter allowing designers to make these adjustments via a direct PWM input signal or an analog reference signal. Further, any PWM amplitude is easily accommodated using a single external resistor. The LX1744 is available in the 14-Pin TSSOP, and the miniature 16-Pin MLP requiring minimal PCB area.

Dual Output Boost – LED Driver / LCD Bias
P RODUCTION D ATASHEET
APPLICATION NOTE
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The LX1744 is a dual output Pulse Frequency Modulated (PFM) boost converter that is optimized for large step-up voltage applications like LCD biasing and LED drive. Operating in a pseudo-hysteretic mode with a fixed switch “off time” of 300ns, converter switching is enabled when the feedback voltage (VFB) falls below the bandgap reference voltage or the ADJ pin voltage managed by the reference logic block (see Block Diagram). When this occurs, the feedback comparator activates the switching logic, pulling the gate of the power MOSFET high. This in turn connects the boost inductor to ground causing current to flow building up the energy stored in the inductor. The output remains “on”, until the inductor current ramps up to the peak current level set either by the CS pin programming resistor (RCS) in the case of the LED driver or by an internal reference threshold for the LCD bias output. During this switch cycle, the load is powered from energy stored in the output capacitor. Once the peak inductor current value is achieved, the driver output is turned off, for the fixed offtime period of 300ns, allowing a portion of the energy stored in the inductor to be delivered to the load causing output voltage to rise at the input to the feedback circuit. If the voltage at the feedback pin is less than the internal reference at the end of the off-time period, the output switches the power MOSFET “on” and the inductor charging cycle repeats until the feedback pin voltage is greater than the internal reference. Typical converter switching behavior is shown in Figure 12. LCD BIAS – OUTPUT VOLTAGE PROGRAMMING Selecting the appropriate values for LCD Bias output voltage divider (Figure 3), connected to the feedback pin, programs the output voltage.
VBAT = 1.6V to 6.0V
Using a value between 40kΩ and 75kΩ for R2 works well in most applications. R1 can be determined by the following equation (where VREF = 1.19V nominal):
R1 = R 2 VOUT - VREF VREF

eq. 1
LCD BIAS – OUTPUT VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENT The LX1744 allows for the dynamic adjustment of the of the voltage output via an adjustment pin (ADJ). Any voltage applied to the adjustment pin works in conjunction with the internal reference logic. The LX1744 will automatically utilize the internal reference when no signal is detected or when the adjustment signal voltage is below approximately 0.6V. This adjustment pin includes an internal 50pF capacitor to ground (Figure 4) that works with an external resistor to create a low-pass filter. This allows a direct PWM (fPWM ≥ 100KHz) signal input to be used for the voltage adjustment signal. (Consequently a DC bias signal can also be used).
