Description
STLD40D is a boost converter that operates from
3.0 V to 5.5 V. It can provide an output voltage as
high as 37 V and can drive up to 10 white LEDs in
series. The converter is a PFM (pulse frequency
modulation) inductor switch that can work in
discontinuous (DCM) mode operation. A minimum
OFF time of the embedded boost switch TSW is
fixed internally and allows limiting the switching
frequency. The output current capability is 20 mA
with an output voltage of 37 V. The regulation is
done by sensing the LED current through the

Functional description
5.1
Boost controller
The STLD40D is a boost converter operating in PFM (pulsed frequency modulation) mode.
The converter monitors the LED current through the resistor RLED and when the feedback
voltage falls below the reference voltage REF2, the boost switch TSW turns ON and the
current ramps up. The inductor current is measured by sensing the temperature
compensated drain voltage of the boost MOSFET. The boost turns off when its drain voltage
reaches the internally reference REF1, the main switch remains off until the minimum off
time (250 ns typical) has passed and the feedback voltage is below the reference again. A
maximum ON time of 4 µs typical prevents the switch TSW to stay ON during a too long
period of time.
5.2
Adjustable peak inductor current limit
The peak inductor current is monitored by sensing the drain voltage of the switch TSW. Since
it exceeds the temperature compensated and supply voltage compensated reference REF1,
the RS flip flop is reset and TSW is turned OFF. By connecting a resistance to the pin RSET
the peak current limit can be adjusted from 200 mA to 1 A. When RSET resistor value is
about 12 kΩ is connected directly to GND, the default value is 1 A.
5.3
Enable
The ENABLE pin is a high logic input signal and allows turning on/off the controller without
cutting the input voltage from the boost regulator circuit. The pin ENABLE can be used to
dim the LED by applying a low frequency PWM signal.
5.4
OVP
If the regulation loop is cut, there is no signal at the feedback pin, the PFM controller will then
continue to switch without control and generate an output voltage at the SW, and VO pin
exceeding the breakdown value VBSW, and VBO.
The over voltage protection (OVP) senses the voltage at the VO pin. When the voltage
exceed 38 V min. the controller is automatically turned OFF.
A hysteresis control allows the device restarting automatically since the output voltage drops
down of 1.5 V.
