In normal operation, the N-MOSFET is turned on when the PWM Control circuit is set by the oscillator and is turned off when the current comparator resets the PWM Control circuit. While the N-MOSFET is turned off, the inductor current conducts through the external diode. UVLO When the input voltage is lower than the UVLO threshold (2.37V typ.), the driver will turn off. There is a 80mV for the UVLO hysteresis control. Soft-Start When the device is enabled, the Comp ramps up to the target voltage in a specific time. This ensures that the output voltage rises slowly to reduce the input inrush current. OCP The driver provides cycle-by-cycle current limit function to control the current on power switch. OVP The over-voltage protection function monitors the output voltage via the LX pin voltage. The OVP threshold voltage is 36V typically. Once the LED is open, the output voltage reaches the OVP threshold, the driver will be shut down. OTP The over-temperature protection function will shut down the switching operation when the junction temperature exceeds 160°C. Once the junction temperature cools down by approximately 15°C, the converter will automatically resume switching. EN Dimming The EN pin is used for the control input for both PWM dimming mode and digital dimming mode. Shutdown delay when the EN voltage is logic low for more than specific time, the driver will be shut down. Copyright © 2015 Richtek Technology Corporation. All rights reserved.

The soft-start function is achieved by clamping the output voltage of the error amplifier with another voltage source that is increased slowly from zero to near VIN. When the EN pin is constantly high, the FB voltage is regulated to 200mV typically. The RT4503 allows a PWM signal from EN pin to reduce the regulation voltage; and achieve LED brightness dimming. The relationship between the duty cycle and FB voltage is given by LED Current VFB = Duty  VREF The loop control of the Boost converter keeps VFB equal Where : to a reference voltage, VREF. Therefore, when RSET is connected between the FB pin and GND, the LED current will be determined by the current through RSET, which is equal to VFB / RSET. Duty = duty cycle of the PWM signal Current Limit The current flowing through the inductor during a charging period is detected by a current sensing circuit. If the value exceeds the current limit, the N-MOSFET will be turned off. The inductor will then be forced to leave charging stage and enter discharging stage. Therefore, the inductor current will not increase to reach current limit. VREF = internal reference voltage (200mV typ.) The RT4503 chops up the internal 200mV reference voltage via the duty cycle of the PWM signal. Therefore, although a PWM signal is used for brightness dimming, only the LED 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. For optimum performance, use the PWM dimming frequency in the range of 1kHz to 100kHz. Shutdown Delay When the EN voltage is in logic low for 20ms during PWM dimming for RT4503 and 2ms during pulse dimming for RT4503A, the system will enter shutdown.

DS4503/A-03 June 2015 RT4503/A The digital brightness control is implemented by adjusting the feedback voltage in digital steps with a typical maximum voltage of VFB = 200mV. For this purpose, a 5bit DAC is used to display 32 steps equaling to a 6.25mV change in feedback voltage per step. Pulse Dimming The EN pin features a simple digital interface to allow digital brightness control. Using the digital interface to control the LED brightness does not require a PWM signal. 0.5µs < THi THI  40µs 0.5µs < TLO < 1000µs TSHDN > 2ms CTRL 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 200mV (23/32) x 200mV 0 FB Inductor Selection The recommended value of inductor for 10 LEDs or high brightness LED applications is 22μH. Smaller size and better efficiency are the major concerns for portable devices. The inductor should have low core loss at 550kHz and low DCR for better efficiency. The inductor saturation current rating should be considered to cover the inductor peak current. Capacitor Selection For low ripple voltage, ceramic capacitors with low ESR are recommended. X5R and X7R types are suitable because of their wide voltage range and good operating temperature characteristics. For the application of the RT4503/A to drive 10 LEDs in series, a 2.2μF for input capacitor, a 1μF for output capacitor. Thermal Considerations For continuous operation, do not exceed absolute maximum junction temperature. The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of the IC package, PCB layout, rate of surrounding airflow, and difference between junction and ambient temperature. The Copyright © 2015 Richtek Technology Corporation. All rights reserved. DS4503/A-03 June 2015 maximum power dissipation can be calculated by the following formula : PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) − TA) / θJA where TJ(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature, TA is the ambient temperature, and θJA is the junction to ambient thermal resistance. For recommended operating condition specifications, the maximum junction temperature is 125°C. The junction to ambient thermal resistance, θJA, is layout dependent. For WDFN-6L 2x2 package, the thermal resistance, θJA, is 47.5°C/W on a standard JEDEC 51-7 four-layer thermal test board. The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25°C can be calculated by the following formula : PD(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / (47.5°C/W) = 2.1W for WDFN-6L 2x2 package The maximum power dissipation depends on the operating ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal resistance, θJA. The derating curve in Figure 1 allows the designer to see the effect of rising ambient temperature on the maximum power dissipation. is a registered trademark of Richtek Technology Corporation. www.richtek.com 11 RT4503/A Layout Consideration Maximum Power Dissipation (W)1 2.5 For best performance of the RT4503/A, the following guide lines must be strictly followed.
