Application information
Application information
This IC has a built-in DC-DC step-up converter that, from a single source from 9 V to 17.5 V,
generates the voltages (VUP) that allow the linear post-regulator to work with a minimum
dissipated power of 0.5 W typ. @ 500 mA load (the linear post-regulator drop voltage is
internally kept at VUP - VOUT = 1 V typ.). The IC is also provided with an undervoltage
lockout circuit that disables the whole circuit when the supplied VCC drops below a fixed
threshold (4.7 V typically). The step-up converter is provided with a soft-start function which
reduces the inrush current during startup. The SS time is internally fixed at 4 ms typ. to
switch from 0 to 13 V and 6 ms typ. to switch from 0 to 18 V.
2.1
DiSEqC™ data encoding
The LNBH29 series includes two versions with different DiSEqC control pin solutions:
LNBH29 with DSQIN pin and LNBH29E with EXTM pin.
The LNBH29 is provided with the DSQIN logic input pin (TTL compatible) to be controlled by
an external DiSEqC data envelope source which activates the internal 22 kHz tone
generator factory trimmed. This guarantees the tone output waveform in accordance with
the DiSEqC standards.
The LNBH29E is provided with the EXTM analogic modulation input pin to be connected to
an external 22 kHz DiSEqC tone source. The tone output waveform depends on the
characteristics of an external signal injected by means of the EXTM pin.
2.2
LNBH29: data encoding by external DiSEqC envelope control
through the DSQIN pin
If an external DiSEqC code envelope source is available, it is possible to use the internal 22
kHz generator activated during the tone transmission by connecting the DiSEqC envelope
source to the DSQIN pin (see Section 5: Typical application circuits). In this way, the internal
22 kHz signal is superimposed to the VOUT DC voltage to generate the LNB output 22 kHz
tone. During the period in which the DSQIN is kept HIGH, the internal control circuit
activates the 22 kHz tone output.
The 22 kHz tone on the VOUT pin is activated with about 6 µs delay from the DSQIN TTL
signal rising edge, and it stops with a delay time in the range of 15 µs to 60 µs after the 22
kHz TTL signal on DSQIN has expired (refer to Figure 2).

LNBH29
LNBH29E: DISEQC data encoding by external 22 kHz signal
connected to the EXTM pin
In order to improve design flexibility, an analogic modulation input pin is available (EXTM) to
generate the 22 kHz tone superimposed to the VOUT DC output voltage. An appropriate DC
blocking capacitor must be used to couple the 22 kHz modulating signal source to the
EXTM pin. The EXTM pin modulates the VOUT voltage through the series decoupling
capacitor, so that:
VOUT(AC) = VEXTM(AC) x GEXTM
where VOUT(AC) and VEXTM(AC) are, respectively, the peak-to-peak AC voltage on the
VOUT pin and on the EXTM pin, while GEXTM is the voltage gain between the EXTM
voltage and VOUT signal.
2.4
Output current limit selection
The linear regulator current limit threshold can be set by an external resistor connected to
the ISEL pin. The resistor value defines the output current limit by the equation:
Equation 1
IMAX ( typ.)
13915
RSEL1.111
where RSEL is the resistor connected between ISEL and GND expressed in k and
IMAX(typ.) is the typical current limit threshold expressed in mA. IMAX can be set up to 550
mA.
2.5
Output voltage selection
The linear regulator output voltage level can be easily programmed in order to accomplish
application specific requirements, using 3 bits of the internal DATA register (see Section 7.1:
Write mode transmission and Table 7 for exact programmable values). Register writing is
accessible via the I²C bus.
2.6
Diagnostic and protection functions
The LNBH29 series has 5 diagnostic internal functions provided via the I²C bus, by reading
5 bits on the STATUS register (in Read mode). All the diagnostic bits are, in normal
operation, set to LOW. Two diagnostic bits are dedicated to the overtemperature and
overload protection status (OTF and OLF) while the remaining 3 bits are dedicated to the
output voltage level (VMON), to external voltage source presence on the VOUT pin (PDO)
and to the input voltage power not good function (PNG). Once the OLF (or OTF or PNG) bit
has been activated (set to “1”), it is latched to “1” until the relevant cause is removed and a
new register reading operation is done (see Table 8).

Application information
Surge protection and TVS diodes
The LNBH29 series is directly connected to the antenna cable in a set-top box. Atmospheric
phenomenon can cause high voltage discharges on the antenna cable causing damage to
the attached devices. Surge pulses occur due to direct or indirect lightning strikes to an
external (outdoor) circuit. This leads to currents or electromagnetic fields causing high
voltage or current transients. Transient voltage suppressor (TVS) devices are usually
placed, as shown in Figure 3, to protect the STB output circuits where the LNBH29 and
other devices are electrically connected to the antenna cable.
Figure 3. Surge protection circuit
For this purpose the use of LNBTVSxx surge protection diodes specifically designed by ST
is recommended. The selection of the LNBTVS diode should be made based on the
maximum peak power dissipation that the diode is capable of supporting (see the LNBTVS
datasheet for further details).
2.8
VMON: output voltage diagnostic
When device output voltage is activated (VOUT pin), its value is internally monitored and, as
long as the output voltage level is below the guaranteed limits, the VMON I²C bit is set to “1”.
See Table 12 for more details.
2.9
PDO: overcurrent detection on output pull-down stage
When an overcurrent occurs on the pull-down output stage due to an external voltage
source greater than the LNBH29 nominal VOUT and for a time longer than ISINK_TIME-OUT
(10 ms typ.), the PDO I²C bit is set to “1”. This may happen due to an external voltage
source presence on the LNB output (VOUT pin).
For current threshold and de-glitch time details, see Table 9.
2.10
Power-on I²C interface reset and undervoltage lockout
The I²C interface built into the LNBH29 series is automatically reset at power-on. As long as
the VCC stays below the undervoltage lockout (UVLO) threshold (4.7 V typ.), the interface
does not respond to any I²C command and all DATA register bits are initialized to zeroes,
therefore keeping the power blocks disabled. Once the VCC rises above 4.8 V typ. the I²C
interface becomes operative and the DATA registers can be configured by the main
microprocessor.

Application information
2.11
LNBH29
PNG: input voltage minimum detection
When input voltage (VCC pin) is lower than LPD (low power diagnostic) minimum thresholds,
the PNG I²C bit is set to “1”. Refer to Table 9 for threshold details.
2.12
COMP: boost capacitors and inductor
The DC-DC converter compensation loop can be optimized in order to properly work with
both ceramic and electrolytic capacitors (VUP pin). For this purpose, one I²C bit in the DATA
register (COMP) can be set to “1” or “0” as follows:
COMP=0 for electrolytic capacitors
COMP=1 for ceramic capacitors
For recommended DC-DC capacitor and inductor values refer to Section 5: Typical
application circuits and to the BOM in Table 5.
2.13
OLF: overcurrent and short-circuit protection and diagnostic
In order to reduce the total power dissipation during an overload or a short-circuit condition,
the device is provided with a dynamic short-circuit protection. The overcurrent protection
circuit works dynamically: as soon as an overload is detected, the output current is provided
only for TON time (90 ms typ.) and after that, the output is set in shutdown for a TOFF time of
typically 900 ms. Simultaneously, the diagnostic OLF I²C bit of the STATUS register is set to
“1”. After this time has elapsed, the output is resumed for a time TON. At the end of TON, if
the overload is still detected, the protection circuit cycles again through TOFF and TON. At
the end of a full TON in which no overload is detected, normal operation is resumed and the
OLF diagnostic bit is reset to LOW after a register reading is done. Typical TON + TOFF time
is 990 ms, determined by an internal timer. This dynamic operation can greatly reduce the
power dissipation in short-circuit conditions, while ensuring excellent power-on startup in
most conditions.
2.14
OTF: thermal protection and diagnostic
The LNBH29 series is also protected against overheating: when the junction temperature
exceeds 150 °C (typ.), the step-up converter and the linear regulator are shut off and the
diagnostic OTF bit in the STATUS register is set to “1”. As soon as the overtemperature
condition is removed, normal operation is automatically re-enabled, while the OTF bit is
reset to “0” after a register reading operation.

I²C bus interface

LNBH29
I²C bus interface
Data transmission from the main microprocessor to the LNBH29 and vice versa takes place
through the 2-wire I²C bus interface, consisting of the 2 lines SDA and SCL (pull-up resistors
to positive supply voltage must be externally connected).
6.1
Data validity
As shown in Figure 7, the data on the SDA line must be stable during the high semi-period
of the clock. The HIGH and LOW state of the data line can only change when the clock
signal on the SCL line is LOW.
6.2
Start and stop condition
As shown in Figure 8, a start condition is a HIGH to LOW transition of the SDA line while
SCL is HIGH. The stop condition is a LOW to HIGH transition of the SDA line while SCL is
HIGH. A stop condition must be sent before each start condition.
6.3
Byte format
Every byte transferred to the SDA line must contain 8 bits. Each byte must be followed by an
acknowledge bit. The MSB is transferred first.
6.4
Acknowledge
The master (microprocessor) puts a resistive HIGH level on the SDA line during the
acknowledge clock pulse (see Figure 9). The peripheral (LNBH29) that acknowledges must
pull down (LOW) the SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse, so that the SDA line is
stable LOW during this clock pulse. The peripheral which has been addressed must
generate an acknowledge after the reception of each byte, otherwise the SDA line remains
at the HIGH level during the ninth clock pulse time. In this case the master transmitter can
generate the STOP information in order to abort the transfer. The LNBH29 does not
generate an acknowledge if the VCC supply is below the undervoltage lockout threshold (4.7
V typ.).
6.5
Transmission without acknowledge
If the detection of an acknowledge from the LNBH29 is not required, the microprocessor can
use a simpler transmission: it simply waits one clock cycle without checking the slave
acknowledging, and sends the new data. This approach is of course less protected from
misworking and decreases the noise immunity.

The LNBH29 series interface protocol comprises:
a start condition (S)
a chip address byte with the LSB bit R/W = 0
a register address (internal address of the first register to be accessed)
a sequence of data (byte to write in the addressed internal register + acknowledge)
a stop condition (P). The transfer lasts until a stop bit is encountered
the LNBH29, as slave, acknowledges every byte transfer.

Note:
One only DATA register address 0x1 is available for the writing procedure.
7.2
Read mode transmission
In Read mode the bytes sequence must be as follows:
16/31
a start condition (S)
a chip address byte with the LSB bit R/W=0
the register address byte of the internal first register to be accessed
a stop condition (P)
a new master transmission with the chip address byte and the LSB bit R/W=1
after the acknowledge the LNBH29 starts to send the addressed register content. As
long as the master keeps the acknowledge LOW, the LNBH29 transmits the next
address register byte content.
the transmission is terminated when the master sets the acknowledge HIGH with a
following stop bit.

DATA register
The DATA register can be addressed both in Write and Read mode. In Read mode it returns
the last writing byte status received in the previous write transmission.
Table 6 provides the DATA register values with relevant function description of each bit.
a. The reading procedure can start from any register address (STATUS or DATA) by simply setting the X values
in the register address byte (after the first chip address in Figure 11). It can be also stopped from the master by
sending a stop condition after any acknowledge bit.
