Functional Description
Soft Start / Enable
The AAT1403 is a high frequency current mode controlled
step-up (boost) converter LED driver. The device utilizes
a single current sink to regulate the LED current by controlling the output voltage. The wide voltage range is
suitable for single cell Li-ion / Li-polymer battery applications. The internal current sink is programmed by an
external resistor to a current from 10mA to 31mA. The
minimum output voltage must be greater than the input
voltage. The AAT1403 is capable of driving up to 45V with
10 series connected LEDs with currents up to 31mA. The
LED dimming method is through either the S2Cwire interface with 32 steps or varied duty cycle of the PWM signal
with frequency up to 100kHz after the maximum LED
current is set by S2Cwire.
The AAT1403 is enabled by EN/SET pulled to high after
power on with a certain delay time. Internal soft start
circuitry limits the input inrush current and eliminates
output voltage overshoot. When ENSET is pulled low the
AAT1403 enters a low-power, non-switching state. The
total input current during shutdown is less than 1μA. An
external diode limits VOUT to the level of VIN during shutdown. The diode consumes a small amount of additional
input current depending on the OVP resistor divider
value.
The over-voltage protection function is designed to protect the boost converter during the fault of the open
circuit of the LED string. The over-temperature function
is targeted to protect the converter if an over-temperature fault occurs. The AAT1403 will recover to normal
operation automatically when the OVP or OTP fault is
removed.
Over-Temperature Protection
Thermal protection disables the AAT1403 when internal
dissipation becomes excessive. Thermal protection disables the power MOSFET. The junction over-temperature
threshold is 155°C with 15°C of temperature hysteresis.
The output voltage automatically recovers when the
over-temperature fault condition is removed.

DATA SHEET
AAT1403
Serial LED Driver with Filtered PWM and 32-Step S2C Dimming Control
Over-Voltage Protection
S2Cwire™ Serial Interface
Over-voltage protection prevents damage to the AAT1403's
LX pin during open-circuit or high output voltage conditions. An over-voltage event is defined as a condition
where the voltage on the OVP pin exceeds the over-voltage protection threshold (VOVP-T). When VOVP has reached
the threshold limit, the converter stops switching and the
output voltage decays. Switching resumes when the lower
hysteresis limit of VOVP is reached, thereby maintaining an
average output voltage between the upper and lower OVP
thresholds.
The LED current magnitude can be controlled by the EN/
SET pin using the S2Cwire interface. The interface records
rising edges of the EN/SET pin and decodes them into 32
individual current level settings. Code 1 is full scale
(maximum LED current), and Code 32 is 2% of the full
scale. The modulo 32 interface wraps states back to state
1 after the 32nd clock. The counter can be clocked at
speeds up to 1MHz, so intermediate states are not visible. The first rising edge of EN/SET enables the IC and
initially sets the output LED current to full scale after
500µs tLAT. Once the final clock cycle is input for the
desired brightness level, the EN/SET pin should be held
high to maintain the device output current at the programmed level. The device is disabled 500μs after the
EN/SET pin enters a logic low state. The EN/SET timing
is designed to accommodate a wide range of data rates
from 20kHz to 1MHz.
LED Current Setting
The maximum LED current is determined by the RSET
resistor value. With a fixed 1.2V voltage on RSET, the LED
maximum current is a linear ratio to the current flowing
through RSET.
ILED =
VSET
· 258
RSET
After the first rising edge of EN/SET, the boost converter
is enabled and reaches full capacity after the soft-start
time. Exact counts of clock pulses for the desired current
level should be entered on the EN/SET pin with a single
burst of clocks. The counter refreshes each time a new
clock input to the EN/SET pin is detected. A constant current is maintained as long as EN/SET remains in a logic
high state. To save power, the boost converter is switched
off after EN/SET has remained in the low state for at least
the tOFF timeout period as shown in Figure 1.
The LED dimming is controlled via one of two options,
either using the 32-step S2Cwire single-wire interface via
the EN/SET pin or PWM control with varied duty cycle up
to 100kHz frequency. 32 S2Cwire rising-edge steps set the
LED current from 100% to 2% percentage of the maximum LED current value when PWM control is disabled by
pulling the PWM pin high. S2Cwire can also be used to set
maximum LED current along with a PWM signal to dim the
LED lighting from 100% to 1% of duty cycle.

Application Information
Figure 2 illustrates the LED current value at different
S2Cwire code settings when RSET is 15kΩ with a maximum
LED current of 20mA.
The maximum LED current is determined by value of the
external resistor RSET from 10mA to 31mA. The value of
RSET is determined by the voltage of RSET and the LED
current, and can be calculated by:

LED current dimming is controlled either via the S2Cwire
single-wire interface through the EN/SET pin in 32 steps
or via PWM control with varied duty cycle up to 100kHz
frequency. The S2Cwire interface programs the LED current from the maximum LED current set by RSET to 2%
of the maximum LED current as shown in Table 2.

Filtered PWM Dimming
The AAT1403 provides a PWM input as an additional
means of providing dimming control for CABC applications. The LED current reduces percentage linearly as
the duty cycle decreasing. Frequencies of up to 100kHz
can be applied. To avoid output flicker and noise, the
input control PWM frequency is filtered by the low pass
filter composed of the error amplifier and the external
compensation capacitor.
Figure 3 shows LED current dimming controlled by varying the PWM duty cycle at RSET = 15kΩ.

AAT1403
Serial LED Driver with Filtered PWM and 32-Step S2C Dimming Control
Capacitor Selection
A compensation capacitor CCOM is used for step-up converter loop compensation, soft startup time control, and
PWM digital signal filtering. Loop compensation requires
matching values for CCOM, COUT, ILED, and VOUT:
COUT
ILED
<
CCOM 30 · 10-6 · VOUT
The AAT1403 can drive up to 10 white LEDs with forward
voltages up to 4V each. In a worst case with VF of 4V, a
COUT value of 0.1µF, and LED maximum current of 20mA,
the value of CCOM should be higher than 6.0nF.
CCOM >
COUT · 30 · VOUT
0.1 · 30 · 40
(nF) =
(nF) = 6.0nF
ILED
20
A higher value for CCOM lengthens the soft startup time.
The relationship between CCOM and startup time is almost
linear, with startup time x 105 magnification of CCOM; thus
56nF CCOM leads to a soft startup time of 5.6ms. Table 3
gives several examples of minimum CCOM values at different COUT and ILED and the step-up converter's operation
stable. Values of 56nF for CCOM and 0.1µF for COUT are
suitable in most cases.

Inductor Selection
Inductor value, saturation current and DCR is most important parameter in selecting an inductor for the AAT1403.
The suitable inductance range for the AAT1403 is 4.7µH
to 22µH. Higher inductance lowers the step-up converter's RMS current value. Together with lower DCR value
of the inductor, it makes the total inductor power loss
become much lower. Considering inductor size and cost,
10µH inductance is most suitable. Figure 4 illustrates
AAT1403 efficiency at different inductance with similar
DCR value.
Efficiency (%)
ILED (mA)
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 as input, output and compensation capacitors in the AAT1403 step-up converter LED
driver application. MLC capacitors of type X7R or X5R are
recommended to ensure good capacitance stability over
the full operating temperature range. A 4.7µF/6.3V input
capacitor is recommended and a 0.1µF/50V output capacitor is suitable as noted above. Table 4 lists some recommended capacitors for use with the AAT1403.

Considering the inductor copper loss, the inductor DCR
value together with the RMS current value flowing
through the inductor leads to inductor conduction loss
and also affects total efficiency. Larger DCR leads to
larger conduction loss and decreases total efficiency. The
inductor conduction loss can be estimated as shown in
the equation:
PL_LOSS = I2L_RMS · DCR

OVP Setting
Over-voltage protection is designed to protect the step-up
converter from a LED string open fault. The OVP threshold
is 1.2V. For 6 white LEDs with VF up to 4V, the resistor
divider values for R1 and R2 can be calculated by:
Figure 5: Inductor DCR Effects on
Total Efficiency with 10µH at 3.6V VIN.
Inductor saturation current is also a key parameter in
selecting an inductor. For the step-up converter, the peak
inductor current is the DC input current plus half the
inductor peak-to-peak current ripple.

Higher resistor divider values decrease the power loss on
the resistors. The total resistor value for 40V VOUT should
be less than 4MΩ for better noise immunity. Values of
2.2MΩ for resistor R1 and 68kΩ for resistor R2 are recommended.

Rectifier Diode Selection
An external rectifier diode is required for the non-synchronous step-up converter. A low VF Schottky diode is
recommended. The diode voltage rating should be higher
than the OVP voltage. For an AAT1403 driving 10 white
LEDs with up to 4V forward voltage, the diode voltage
rating should be higher than 40V. Select a diode with DC
rated current equal to the input current to allow an adequate margin for safe use.
Table 6 gives some examples of recommended rectifier
diodes for use with the AAT1403.

Layout Recommendations
For best performance of the AAT1403, the following
guidelines should be followed when designing the PCB
layout:
1. Make the power trace as short and wide as possible,
including the input/output power lines and switching
node, etc.
2. Make sure the ground bump connected to the printed circuit board with large copper area for better
thermal dissipation.
3. Put the input and output capacitor close to the IC as
close as possible to get the best filter result.
