GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The XC9116 series is a fixed frequency, constant current step-up
DC/DC converter ideal for driving LEDs used in backlighting
applications on cellular phones, PDAs and digital cameras etc.
Output voltage of up to 17.5V can be derived, and from a 3.2V
input four white LED's can be driven in series or alternatively, using
a 2.5V input, a network of two parallel legs with three in each may
be driven.
Luminance of the LED's is controlled by changing the duty cycle of
a PWM
signal applied to the CE pin. Efficiency is high with the XC9116
through the high 1MHz switching frequency and the low feedback
reference voltage, ensuring the RLED losses are minimal.
In addition, an internal MOSFET with an Rds-on of 2Ω is used. A
low profile and small board area solution can be achieved using a
chip coil and an ultra small ceramic output capacitor (CL) of
0.22µF.
The 'B' type of XC9116 (under development) has an additional fault
detection circuit. If the LEDs are disconnected or damaged in such
a way that prevents feedback, excess or run away output voltage is
prevented by stopping the drive to the internal MOSFET.
