KEY FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
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
LX1745 is capable of achieving an LED
drive in excess of 1.0W.
The LX1745 provides simple dynamic
adjustment of the LED drive current (0% to
100% full range dimming) and the LCD
Bias output voltages (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 LX1745 is available in the lowprofile 20-Pin TSSOP.

The LX1745 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 voltages with an
additional two integrated boost converters.
Designed for maximum efficiency and
featuring a psuedo-hysteretic PFM
topology (that decreases output voltage
ripple), the LX1745 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 for LCD Bias generation, the
LED driver utilizes an external N-Channel
MOSFET in order to maintain maximum
efficiency along with flexible power
requirements..
The LX1745’s control circuitry is
optimized for portable systems with a
shutdown current of less than 1µA. The
input voltage range of 1.6V to 6.0 allows
for a wide selection of system battery

APPLICATION NOTE
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.
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 = R2
VOUT - VREF
VREF
eq. 1
LCD BIAS – OUTPUT VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENT
The LX1745 allows for the dynamic adjustment of each
of the voltage outputs via an adjustment pin (ADJx). Any
voltage applied to the adjustment pin(s) works in
conjunction with the internal reference logic. The LX1745
will automatically utilize the internal reference when no
signal is detected or when the adjustment signal voltage is
below approximately 0.6V.
Each of these pins 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).

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The LX1745 is a triple 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 outputs. 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 14.
