SC635

POWER MANAGEMENT Description The SC635 is a high-current charge pump designed specifically for use with white LEDs used in camera flash applications. Only two small bucket capacitors are required to develop the output drive, providing a low EMI solution compared to inductive boost regulators. Charge Pump Flash LED Driver Features SC635 Two selectable modes - Flash and Spotlight 200mA max output - Flash Mode Spotlight mode set to 40% of Flash Current 3.0V to 5.25V Input Range External pins for control of flash and spotlight modes for synchronization to a camera module or graphics The SC635 has two modes of operation: Flash mode and controller Spotlight mode. In Flash mode, the SC635 is capable of u Short circuit, over-voltage, and over-temperature delivering 200mA to a high-intensity LED during image protection capture. In Spotlight mode the SC635 outputs 40% of the u Soft-start functionality Flash mode current for general purpose lighting or status u Micro Lead Package MLPD-0, 3mm x 3mm indication. An external resistor is connected in series with the LED to set the current. In Flash mode, this resistor can dissipate up to 50mW, reducing the power dissipation requirement of the SC635. The flash input (FLASH) overrides the control input (CTRL) to make sure the flash function is activated when called for. The thermally efficient MLPD-10 package and ceramic bypass and bucket capacitors make the SC635 a high output current driver that requires minimal PCB area. u u u u u Applications u Mobile Camera Phones u Digital Cameras u PDAs with Built-in Cameras Typical Application Circuit Typical Application Circuit 1 VIN C1+ C1C2+ C2- SC635 VOUT GND ISET CTRL 9 3 6 7 5 VBAT 10µF 1µF 8 4 10 1µF white LED 1µF 2 FLASH RSET FLASH CTRL December 2, 2005  www.semtech.com SC635 POWER MANAGEMENT Absolute Maximum Ratings Exceeding the specifications below may result in permanent damage to the device or device malfunction.

Short-Circuit Current Protection Short-circuit current protection is provided to limit the current that can be sourced when the output is shorted to ground. When a short circuit forces VOUT to drop below 2V, the SCCP detects the condition and limits the output current. Resistor Selection The ISET resistor selection is critical in generating the correct current. The value can be chosen to set the Spotlight mode current or the Flash mode current, but it must be noted that the two current settings are dependent on the same resistance. It is recommended that the resistor be selected to match the desired LED current for Flash mode. This allows the designer to set the SC635’s maximum current and select the resistor package size necessary for the power dissipation required in Flash mode. The typical application shown on page 1 uses a 1.25Ω resistor to set a flash mode current of 200mA and spotlight mode current of 80mA. A high precision resistor should be used to ensure the specified accuracy for LED current. To avoid malfunction of the charge pump, it is recommended that the resistance seen at the ISET pin remain constant while the device is active (Flash or Spotlight mode). Changing the resistance value or the load current while the device is active could cause instability that would result in non-compliant behavior. The load current return path is from the ISET sense point through the resistor and back to the ground pins. Resistance in this path adds to the total resistance and has the effect of reducing the LED current by about 4% per 0mV of DC drop across the return copper trace in flash mode. For this reason, it is crucial to have a low resistance return path. Place and ground the resistor as close as possible to the ground pin of the SC635. The trace from the ISET pin has virtually no current. The ISET trace should make contact at the pad of the power sense resistor to minimize the effect of voltage drop between the LED cathode and the resistor. Capacitor Selection The SC635 is designed to use low-ESR ceramic capacitors for the input and output bypass capacitors as well as the charge pump bucket capacitors. Ideal performance is achieved when C is exactly equal to C2. It is recommended that X5R or X7R ceramic capacitors be used for best performance. Thermal Resistance The SC635 package is thermally efficient when the circuit board layout connects the thermal pad though multiple vias to the ground plane. The thermal resistance is rated at 49°C/W, and this rating is dependent on the connection between the thermal pad and the ground plane. A layout that is done correctly should keep the junction temperature below the OT limit while operating the SC635 within the specified electrical conditions for IOUT and VISET. A poor layout may allow the junction temperature to reach the OT limit while in Flash or Spotlight mode. It is critical to maintain adequate ground plane around the device to maximize heat transfer and avoid over-temperature shutdown.  2005 Semtech Corp. 6 www.semtech.com SC635 POWER MANAGEMENT Typical Characteristics 200mA Flash Duration, RISET = 1.25W, VOUT = 3.30V(start) to 3.25V(LED heated 500ms) 205.0 Flash Current at 500ms, RISET = 1.25W, VOUT = 3.25V 205.0 203.0 203.0 LED Current [mA] 201.0 VIN = 4.2V VIN = 3.7V VIN = 3.3V 199.0 197.0 195.0 0 100 LED Current [mA] 201.0 199.0 197.0 195.0 Pulse Duration [ms] 200 300 400 500 3.3 3.45 3.6 VIN [V] 3.75 3.9 4.05 4.2 Flash Current at 100ms, RISET = 1.25W, VOUT = 3.28V 205.0 Flash Current at 10ms, RISET = 1.25W, VOUT = 3.30V 205.0 203.0 203.0 LED Current [mA] 201.0 199.0 197.0 195.0 3.3 3.45 3.6 VIN [V] 3.75 3.9 4.05 4.2 LED Current [mA] 201.0 199.0 197.0 195.0 3.3 3.45 3.6 VIN [V] 3.75 3.9 4.05 4.2 80mA Spotlight Current, RISET = 1.25W, VOUT = 2.96V 85.0 83.0 LED Current [mA] 81.0 79.0 77.0 75.0 3 3.45 3.9 VIN [V] 4.35 4.8 5.25  2005 Semtech Corp. 7 www.semtech.com SC635 POWER MANAGEMENT Typical Characteristics (Cont.)

The capacitors C and C2 are the bucket capacitors and each conducts the full load current of up to 200mA pulsed for one half clock cycle. C3 is the output decoupling capacitor placed near the SC635 VOUT pin. C4 is the input decoupling capacitor placed near the SC635 VIN pin. Multiple vias should be used whenever it is necessary to change layers on nets connecting to pins VIN, VOUT, GND, C1-, C1+, C2- and C2+. Resistor R1 is routed with a very low resistance connection between R1 and GND pin 3. The sense trace between Pin 6 and R is routed around the ground vias, allowing the shortest ground return path possible. The sense trace is connected to R at the positive terminal pad for the most accurate output possible. The bottom copper layer is mostly a ground plane with no obstructions between the ground vias. The smaller rectangle to the left connects the input power to VIN pin 1 and input capacitor C4. The two traces at the lower left are for logic inputs FLASH and CTRL. The trace to the right is the ISET pin “sense” trace. The sense trace is routed out of the path of the returning ground current.
