It is an ideal power solution for LED photo flash applications in all single cell Li-ion powered products. • VIN Range: 2.7V to 5.5V • Dual Channel Output • Up to 1.5A Regulated Output Current (750mA per channel) • Up to 85% Efficiency with Small Inductor (1μH) • 2 MHz Switching Frequency • Separate Flash Enable • Separate Flash Inhibit • User-Programmable Safety Timer • Single Resistor Sets Flash and Movie Mode Current • AS2Cwire Single Wire Programming: ▪ Movie Mode Current ▪ Flash/Movie Mode Current Ratio ▪ Movie Mode Output Configuration ▪ Flash Safety Timer • True Load Disconnect • Input Current Limit • Over-Voltage (Open LED, Open Circuit), Short Circuit, and Over-Temperature Protection • Shutdown Current < 1.0μA • 14-pin TDFN 3x3 mm Package • -40°C to +85°C Temperature Range The AAT1271 maintains output current regulation by switching the internal high-side and low-side switch transistors. The transistor switches are pulse-width modulated at a fixed frequency of 2MHz. The high switching frequency allows the use of a small inductor and output capacitor, making the AAT1271 ideally suited for small battery-powered applications. Skyworks' proprietary AS2Cwire™ (Advanced Simple Serial Control™) serial digital interface is used to enable, disable, configure, and program the operation of the AAT1271. Using the AS2Cwire interface, the movie-mode current level for each LED, the safety timer delay, and the flash-to-movie-mode current ratio can be programmed to one of 16 levels. In addition, the single-wire serial protocol sets output channel control. The AAT1271 also includes a separate Flash Enable input to initiate both the flash operation and the default timer which can be used either to terminate a flash event at the end of a userprogrammed delay or as a safety feature. Also included is a Flash Inhibit pin which reduces the flash current to movie-mode levels during high battery demand. The maximum flash and movie-mode current is set by one external resistor where the ratio of Flash to Moviemode current is set at approximately 7.3:1. One or two LEDs can be connected to the AAT1271, where in the case of two LEDs the output current is matched between each diode.

The AAT1271 has two channels to accurately regulate the current flow through two separate white LEDs. There are two basic modes of operation in the AAT1271; a Flash mode controlled by the FLEN pin and the movie mode controlled through the AS2Cwire interface. Flash Mode A flash pulse is initiated by strobing the FLEN input pin low-to-high, which initiates a flash pulse and also starts the internal timer. The maximum flash current in the AAT1271 is set by an external resistor, RSET, which sets the flash current and the maximum movie-mode current reduced by a factor of 2. The flash timer will terminate the flash current regardless of the status of the FLEN pin. This can be either used as a simple flash timing pulse or can be used as a safety timer in the event of a control logic malfunction to prevent the LED from over-heating. The maximum flash time is determined by an external timing capacitor connected to the CT pin. The flash duration can be set from 50ms up to a maximum of 1s. The AS2Cwire interface allows further adjustment of the flash timer duration. This allows the flash timer duration to be reduced in 16 linear steps from the maximum time set by the timing capacitor. If the safety timer is not needed in the application, it can be disabled by connecting the CT pin directly to AGND. AGND PGND FLGND GND The AAT1271 has two LED current sources which share the output current equally. For a single white LED application, the two current sources can be connected together to apply full output current into the LED. In two LED applications, each diode can be connected to its corresponding current source (FLOUTA or FLOUTB) and the output current will be shared. In applications where only one LED is connected to either FLOUTA or FLOUTB, the unused current sink must be directly connected to OUT, thereby disabling that channel. In mobile GSM systems where the phone remains in constant contact with the base station by regular communication, a FLINH pin is provided to prevent both the camera flash and PA transmission pulses from occurring simultaneously. This avoids potential dips to the Li-ion battery voltage below the system’s undervoltage lockout threshold (UVLO). During a flash event, strobing the FLINH pin low-to-high reduces the LED current to the default movie-mode current level for the duration of FLINH. Strobing FLINH high-to-low instructs the AAT1271 to revert the flash LED current to its maximum level, assuming that the FLEN pin is still active (HIGH) and the flash timer has not expired. Movie Mode The movie mode current level, channel enable, and the flash to maximum movie mode current ratio are set using the AAT1271’s AS2Cwire interface at the EN/SET pin. The movie-mode current level can be adjusted in 16 steps using a logarithmic scale where each code is 1dB below the previous code. Channel current outputs (FLOUTA and FLOUTB) in movie-mode can be enabled or Skyworks Solutions, Inc. • Phone [781] 376-3000 • Fax [781] 376-3100 • sales@skyworksinc.com • www.skyworksinc.com 202084A • Skyworks Proprietary Information • Products and Product Information are Subject to Change Without Notice. • June 20, 2012 9 DATA SHEET AAT1271 1.5A Step-Up Current Regulator for Flash LEDs disabled individually or together. Lastly, the flash to maximum movie mode current ratio can be set from 1:2 to 1:30 with respect to the maximum programmed flash current. The FLEN signal takes priority over movie-mode operation. voltage automatically recovers when the over-temperature fault condition is removed. Movie mode operation is controlled entirely by the AS2Cwire interface via the EN/SET pin. Address 2 controls the movie mode on and off functions. Using this register either or both of the LED channels can be turned on to the current values set in Address registers 0 and 3. The movie mode is not operational when the FLEN pin is high and the part is in flash mode operation. If the AAT1271 is in movie mode (FLEN=low) and the FLEN is strobed high the movie mode state will end and the part will operate in the flash mode. The part will not reenter movie mode when ENFL is brought low. To reenter movie mode after a flash event the part must be turned off and the AS2Cwire interface must be reprogrammed to the desired movie mode level. The AAT1271’s output voltage is limited by internal overvoltage protection circuitry, which prevents damage to the AAT1271 from open LED or open circuit conditions. During an open circuit, the output voltage rises and reaches 5.5V (typical), and the OVP circuit disables the switching, preventing the output voltage from rising higher. Once the open circuit condition is removed, switching will resume. The controller will return to normal operation and maintain an average output voltage. Over-Voltage Protection (Open LED, Open Circuit) Auto-Disable Feature The AAT1271 is equipped with an auto-disable feature for each LED channel. After the IC is enabled and started up, a test current of 2-3mA (typical) is forced through each sink channel. The channel will be disabled if the voltage of that particular SINK pin does not drop to a certain threshold. This feature is very convenient for disabling an unused channel or during an LED fail-short event. This small test current should be added to the set output current in both Flash and MM conditions. Over-Temperature Protection Thermal protection disables the AAT1271 when internal power dissipation becomes excessive, as it disables both MOSFETs. The junction over-temperature threshold is 140°C with 15°C of temperature hysteresis.

AS2Cwire relies on the number of rising edges of the EN/SET pin to address and load the AAT1271’s registers. As shown in Table 1, Address 0 controls the Movie Current level as a percentage of the maximum movie mode current level. Address 1 controls the safety timer duration as a percentage of the maximum value set by an external timing capacitor. Address 2 enables the two LED channels independently during movie mode. Finally, Address 3 sets the maximum possible current for movie mode operation. The maximum movie mode current is set as a fraction of the flash current with peak value of 1/2 and default value of 1/7.3. The last column in Table 1 shows the default values for each of the address registers. The AAT1271 is specifically designed to drive white flash LEDs (typical forward voltage of 2.5V to 4.0V). Since the FLOUTA and FLOUTB input current sinks are matched with low voltage dependence; the LED-to-LED brightness will be matched regardless of the individual LED forward voltage (VF) levels. Flash Mode LED Current FLOUTA and FLOUTB can be programmed up to a maximum total flash current of 1.5A or up to 750mA per channel. The output currents in FLOUTA and FLOUTB are equal. The maximum flash current in each FLOUTA and FLOUTB is set by the RSET resistor. For the desired flash current in each output, the resistor value can be calculated using the following equation: 81kΩ × A 81kΩ × A = = 750mA per channel IFLOUTA = IFLOUTB = RSET 107kΩ A flash event is initiated by asserting the FLEN pin. A flash event is automatically terminated when FLEN is deasserted or if the safety timer terminates before the FLEN pin is de-asserted. Any time that the FLINH pin is asserted, the default movie-mode current level will appear at both FLOUTA and FLOUTB. The default moviemode current level will be maintained on FLOUTA and FLOUTB as long as the FLINH and FLEN pins are asserted, and the safety timer continues to run. In addition to setting the flash current via RSET, the flash current can be changed after FLEN is asserted by programming the movie mode current register with 16 different steps. AS2Cwire Serial Interface AS2Cwire latches data or address after the EN/SET pin has been held high for longer than tLAT (500μs). Address or data is differentiated by the number of EN/SET rising edges. Since the data registers are 4 bits each, the differentiating number of pulses is 24 or 16, so that Address 0 is signified by 17 rising edges, Address 1 by 18 rising edges and Address 2 by 19 rising edges and Address 3 by 20 rising edges. Data is applied to any number of rising edges between 1 and 16, inclusive. A typical write protocol is a burst of EN/SET rising edges, signifying a particular address, followed by a pause with EN/SET held high for the prescribed tLAT timeout period, a burst of rising edges signifying data, and a tLAT timeout for the data registers. Once an address is set, then multiple writes to the corresponding data register are allowed. Address 0 is the default address on the first rising edge after the AAT1271 has been disabled.

All data and address are cleared (reset to 0) during shutdown. The AS2Cwire addressing allows the control of the moviemode output current, the safety timer delay, independent control of the FLOUTA and FLOUTB current sinks, and the ratio of movie-mode current to flash current. If there are no programmed write instructions applied to the EN/SET pin prior to the assertion of the FLEN pin and the device is enabled, then all registers will be loaded with their default values shown in Table 1. In the event that the number of rising edges applied at the EN/SET pin is less than 17, the AAT1271’s state machine will interpret instruction to program the output currents to the desired current level for movie-mode operation. movie mode operation, the maximum current available at either FLOUTA or FLOUTB is then: IMOVIE MODE[A/B] = IFLOUT[A/B]MAX 750mA = = 103mA 7.3 7.3 Address 0 controls precise movie mode current levels. The FLOUTA/FLOUTB movie-mode current can be adjusted in logarithmic fashion to one of 16 steps represented as a fraction of the maximum movie mode current in Table 2. To adjust the movie-mode current the user must first access Address 0 before writing the data to set the MM Current value.

Movie Mode current has a maximum value of 50% of the flash current with 240 possible current levels. The maximum movie mode current is set by Address register 3 (discussed below). The default ratio between the flash current level and maximum movie mode current level is 1:7.3. The corresponding FLOUTA/FLOUTB maximum movie mode current can be calculated: I IMOVIE MODE[A/B] = FLOUT[A/B]MAX 7.3 For example, if an RSET value of 107kΩ is chosen, then the FLOUTA/FLOUTB flash current is set to 750mA.

The on-time is programmed by loading the Timing Register at Address 1 with a value from 1 to 16 and by choosing a value for the external timing capacitor, CT (see Table 3). When data is latched into Address 1, the data will be used at the next occurrence of an asserted FLEN, it will then revert back to the default value of Data 1, or 16/16. This feature eliminates the need for an external, housekeeping baseband controller to contain a safety delay routine. It also serves as a protection feature to minimize thermal issues with the Flash LEDs in the event an external controller’s flash software routine experience hang-up or freeze. If no write instruction is applied to Address 1, then the safety timer will default to the maximum delay programmed externally at CT. The Flash Time T can be calculated by the following equation: T = 7.98s/μF · CT (μF) Data Ratio of MM Timeout 1* 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 16/16 15/16 14/16 13/16 12/16 11/16 10/16 9/16 8/16 7/16 6/16 5/16 4/16 3/16 2/16 1/16 Table 3: Address 1, Flash Safety Timer Programming; Maximum Value Programmed by CT. Output Enable Control – Address 2 Where T is in seconds and CT is in μF. For example, using a 47nF capacitor at CT sets the flash timeout to: Flash Timeout = 7.98s/μF · 47nF = 375ms The relationship between the flash safety timeout and the capacitance of the timer capacitor is illustrated in Figure 2. In the case where two LEDs are used, each output can be enabled or disabled independently in movie mode as shown in Table 4. To enable or disable either or both FLOUTA and FLOUTB, a write instruction to Address 2 is applied to the AAT1271’s EN/SET pin. If no write instruction is applied, the default value for Address 2 is FLOUTA, FLOUTB = OFF. During a flash event, both FLOUTA and FLOUTB will be enabled regardless of the movie-mode setting.

When EN/SET pin is held low for an amount of time greater than tOFF (500μs), the AAT1271 enters shutdown mode and draws less than 1μA from VIN. All data and address registers are cleared (reset to 0) during shutdown. Selecting the Boost Inductor Table 5: Address 3, Flash/Movie Mode Current Ratio. The default maximum movie mode current can be calculated: IMOVIE MODE[A/B] = For example, if an RSET value of 107kΩ is chosen, then the FLOUTA/FLOUTB flash current is set to 750mA. For movie mode operation, the maximum current available at either FLOUTA or FLOUTB is then: IFLOUT[A/B]MAX 7.3 The AAT1271 controller utilizes PWM control and the switching frequency is fixed. To maintain 2MHz maximum switching frequency and stable operation, a 1μH inductor is recommended. Manufacturer’s specifications list both the inductor DC current rating, which is a thermal limitation, and peak inductor current rating, which is determined by the saturation characteristics. Measurements at full load and high ambient temperature should be performed to ensure that the inductor does not saturate or exhibit excessive temperature rise.

Worst-case peak current occurs at minimum input voltage (maximum duty cycle) and maximum load. Bench measurements are recommended to confirm actual IPEAK and to ensure that the inductor does not saturate at maximum LED current and minimum input supply voltage. The RMS current flowing through the boost inductor is equal to the DC plus AC ripple components. Under worst case RMS conditions, the current waveform is critically continuous. The resulting RMS calculation yields worst case inductor loss. The RMS current value should be compared against the inductor manufacturer’s temperature rise, or thermal derating guidelines: IRMS = IPEAK 3 For a given inductor type, smaller inductor size leads to an increase in DCR winding resistance and, in most cases, increased thermal impedance. Winding resistance degrades boost converter efficiency and increases the inductor’s operating temperature: PLOSS(INDUCTOR) = I2RMS · DCR Manufacturer Murata Selecting the Boost Capacitors In general, it is good design practice to place a decoupling capacitor (input capacitor) between the IN and GND pins. An input capacitor in the range of 2.2μF to 10μF is recommended. A larger input capacitor in this application may be required for stability, transient response, and/or ripple performance. The high output ripple inherent in the boost converter necessitates the use of low impedance output filtering. Multi-layer ceramic (MLC) capacitors provide small size and adequate capacitance, low parasitic equivalent series resistance (ESR) and equivalent series inductance (ESL), and are well suited for use with the AAT1271 boost regulator. MLC capacitors of type X7R or X5R are recommended to ensure good capacitance stability over the full operating temperature range. The output capacitor is selected to maintain the output load without significant voltage droop (∆VOUT) during the power switch ON interval. A 2.2μF ceramic output capacitor is recommended (see Table 7). Typically, 6.3V or 10V rated capacitors are required for this flash LED boost output. Ceramic capacitors selected as small as 0603 are available which meet these requirements. MLC capacitors exhibit significant capacitance reduction with applied voltage. Output ripple measurements should confirm that output voltage droop and operating stability are within acceptable limits. Voltage derating can minimize this factor, but results may vary with package size and among specific manufacturers. To maintain stable operation at full load, the output capacitor should be selected to maintain ∆VOUT between 100mV and 200mV. The boost converter input current flows during both ON and OFF switching intervals. The input ripple current is less than the output ripple and, as a result, less input capacitance is required.

Minimize the distance under the inductor between IN and switching pin SW; minimize the size of the PCB area connected to the SW pin. 3. Maintain a ground plane and connect to the IC PGND pin(s) as well as the PGND connections of CIN and COUT. 4. Consider additional PCB exposed area for the flash LEDs to maximize heatsinking capability. This may be necessary when using high current application and long flash duration application. 5. Connect the exposed paddle (bottom of the die) to either PGND or GND. Connect AGND, FLGND to GND as close as possible to the package. Boost converter performance can be adversely affected by poor layout. Possible impact includes high input and output voltage ripple, poor EMI performance, and reduced operating efficiency. Every attempt should be made to optimize the layout in order to minimize parasitic PCB effects (stray resistance, capacitance, and inductance) and EMI coupling from the high frequency SW node. A suggested PCB layout for the AAT1271 1.5A step-up regulator is shown in Figures 4 and 5. The following PCB layout guidelines should be considered: 1. Minimize the distance from capacitor CIN and COUT’s negative terminals to the PGND pins. This is especially true with output capacitor COUT, which conducts high ripple current from the output to the PGND pins.
