MP3394S
Step-Up, 4-String
Max 200mA/String White LED Driver
The MP3394S is a step-up controller with 4 current channels. It’s designed to drive WLED arrays for large-size LCD-panel backlighting applications. The MP3394S is flexible, and can expand the number of LED channels with 1 or 2 MP3394S in parallel operating from a single inductive power source.
The MP3394S uses an architecture of current – mode and fixed operation frequency The frequency is programmable by an external frequency-setting resistor. MP3394S drives an external MOSFET to boost up the output voltage from a 5V to 28V input supply. It regulates the current in each LED string to the programmed value set by an external current­setting resistor.
The MP3394S applies 4 internal current sources for current balance. The current matching can achieve 2.5% regulation accuracy between strings. Its low regulation voltage on LED current sources reduces power loss and improves efficiency.

OPERATION
MP3394S—4-STRING, MAX 200mA/STRING WHITE LED DRIVER
Employing the peak-current mode and a programmable constant frequency, the MP3394S is a step-up LED driver with 4 channels or regulated current sources to drive an array of up to 4 strings of white LEDs.
Internal Regulator
The MP3394S includes an internal linear regulator (VCC). When VIN is greater than 6V, this regulator outputs a 5.8V power supply to the external MOSFET switch’s gate driver and the internal control circuitry. The VCC voltage drops to 0V when the chip shuts down. The MP3394S features under-voltage lockout (UVLO). The chip is disabled until VCC exceeds the UVLO threshold. The UVLO hysteresis is approximately 200mV.
System Startup
When enabled, the MP3394S checks the topology connection first. The chip monitors the over-voltage protection (OVP) pin to see if the Schottky diode is connected or if the boost output is shorted to GND. An OVP voltage of less than 75mV will disable the chip. The MP3394S also checks other safety limits, including UVLO and over-temperature protection (OTP) after passing the OVP test. If all the protection tests pass, the chip then starts boosting the step-up converter with an internal soft-start.
It is recommended that the enable signal is given after the establishment of the input voltage and PWM dimming signal during the start-up sequence.
the error amplifier (V
), the external MOSFET
COMP
turns off.
The output voltage of the internal error amplifier is an amplified signal of the difference between the reference voltage and the feedback voltage. The converter automatically chooses the lowest active LEDX pin voltage to provide a high­enough bus voltage to power all the LED arrays.
If the feedback voltage drops below the reference, the output of the error amplifier increases. This result in more current flowing through the MOSFET, thus increasing the power delivered to the output. This forms a closed loop that regulates the output voltage.
Under light-load operation—where V
VIN—
OUT
,the converter runs in pulse-skipping mode where the MOSFET turns on for a minimum on-time of approximately 100ns, and then the converter discharges the power to the output for the remaining period. The external MOSFET remains off until the output voltage needs to be boosted again.
Dimming Control
The MP3394S provides two PWM dimming methods: external PWM signal or DC-input PWM dimming mode (see Figure 2).

At the beginning of each cycle, the internal clock output a signal to turn on the external MOSFET (minimum turn on time is 100ns). A stabilizing ramp added to the output of the current sense amplifier prevents sub-harmonic oscillations for duty cycles greater than 50 percent. This result is fed into the PWM comparator. When this resulting voltage reaches the output voltage of

MP3394S—4-STRING, MAX 200mA/STRING WHITE LED DRIVER
For external PWM dimming, ground the BOSC pin through a resistor, and apply an external PWM signal to the DBRT pin.
For DC-input PWM dimming, apply a DC analog signal to the DBRT pin, and connect a capacitor on BOSC pin to ground. The DC signal is then converted to a DPWM dimming signal with a proportional oscillation frequency.
The brightness of the LED array is proportional to the duty cycle of the DPWM signal. The DPWM signal frequency is set by the capacitor from the BOSC pin to ground.
Open String Protection Open string protection is achieved through the
OVP pin and the LED (1 to 4) pins. If one or more strings are open, the respective LEDX pins are pulled to ground and the IC keeps charging the output voltage until it reaches the over-voltage protection (OVP) threshold. Then the chip marks off the strings which have an LEDX pin voltage lower than 196mV. Once marked, the remaining LED strings force the output voltage back into tight regulation. The string with the largest voltage drop determines the output regulation.
Short String Protection
The MP3394S monitors the LEDX pin voltages to determine if a short string fault has occurred. If one or more strings are shorted, the respective LEDX pins tolerate high voltage stress. If an LEDX pin voltage is higher than 6.1V, this condition triggers the detection of a short string. When a short string faults (LEDX over-voltage fault) keeps for 4096 switching clocks, the fault string is marked OFF and disabled. Once a string is marked OFF, it disconnects from the output voltage loop. The marked LED strings shut off completely until the part restarts. If all strings are shorted, the MP3394S will shut down the step-up converter. The strings remain marked OFF until the chip resets.
Thermal Shut Down Protection
When MP3394S die temperature exceeds the thermal protection threshold, the thermal protection is triggered. IC shuts down until EN restart.
The MP3394S will always attempt to light at least one string. If all strings are open, the MP3394S shuts down the step-up converter. The strings will remain in this marked state until the chip reset.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Selecting the Switching Frequency
The switching frequency of the step-up converter is recommended from 100kHz to 500kHz for most of application. An oscillator resistor on OSC pin sets the internal oscillator frequency for the step-up converter according to the equation:
f(kHz)
SW
For R
=374k, the switching frequency is set
OSC
to 185 kHz.
Setting the LED Current
The LED string currents are identical and set through the current setting resistor on the ISET pin. The ISET pin can not be open.
LED
I(mA)
Selecting the Input Capacitor
The input capacitor reduces the surge current drawn from the input supply and the switching noise from the device. The input capacitor impedance at the switching frequency should be less than the input source impedance to prevent the high-frequency switching current from passing through to the input. Use ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics for their low ESR and small temperature coefficients. For most applications, use a 4.7F ceramic capacitor in parallel with a 220µF electrolytic capacitor.
Selecting the Inductor and Current Sensing Resistor
The MP3394S requires an inductor to supply a higher output voltage while being driven by the input voltage. A larger value inductor results in less ripple current, resulting in lower peak inductor current and reducing stress on the internal N-channel MOSFET. However, the larger value inductor has a larger physical size, higher series resistance, and lower saturation current.
Choose an inductor that does not saturate under the worst-case load conditions. Select the minimum inductor value to ensure that the boost converter works in continuous conduction mode with high efficiency and good EMI performance. Calculate the required inductance value using the equation:

Selecting the Output Capacitor
The output capacitor keeps the output voltage ripple small and ensures feedback loop stability. The output capacitor impedance must be low at the switching frequency. Ceramic capacitors with X7R dielectrics are recommended for their low ESR characteristics. For most applications, a
4.7F ceramic capacitor in parallel with a 22F electrolytic capacitor will suffice.
Setting the Over Voltage Protection
The open string protection is achieved through the detection of the voltage on the OVP pin. In some cases, an LED string failure results in the feedback voltage always zero. The part then keeps boosting the output voltage higher and higher. If the output voltage reaches the programmed OVP threshold, the protection will be triggered.
To ensure the chip functions properly, select the resistor values for the OVP resistor divider to provide an appropriate set voltage. The recommended OVP point is about 1.1 to 1.2 times higher than the output voltage for normal operation.

Selecting Dimming Control Mode
The MP3394S provides two different dimming methods
1. Direct PWM Dimming
An external PWM dimming signal is employed to achieve PWM dimming control. Connect a 100k resistor from BOSC pin to GND and apply a PWM dimming signal—in the range of 100Hz to 20kHz—to the DBRT pin. The minimum recommended amplitude of the PWM signal is
1.2V. The low level should be less than 0.4V (See Figure 4).

2. DC Input PWM Dimming
For DC input PWM dimming, apply an analog signal (ranging from 0.2 V to 1.2V) to the DBRT pin to modulate the LED current directly. If the DBRT voltage falls below 0.2V, the PWM duty cycle will be 0%. If the DBRT voltage goes above
1.2V, the output will be 100% (See Figure 5). The capacitor on BOSC pin sets the frequency of the internal triangle waveform according to the equation.
Expanding LED Channels
The MP3394S can expand the number of LED channels by using two or three MP3394Ss in parallel. To connect two MP3394Ss for a total of 8 LED strings, tie the VCC pins of the master IC and the slave IC together to power the slave IC’s internal logic circuitry. Tie the COMP pins of the slave IC and the master IC together to regulate the voltage of all 8 strings LEDs. The slave IC MOSFET driving signals are not used; the boost converter can be only driven by the master IC. Do not leave the I
pin of the slave IC floating;
SENSE
tie it to ground. Apply the EN and DIM signals to both ICs. For best results, use external PWM dimming mode for synchronized and accurate dimming.
Layout Considerations
The circuit layout for the MP3394S requires special attention to reduce EMI noise.
The loop from the external MOSFET (M1), through the output diode (D1) and the output capacitor (C2, C3) carry a high-frequency pulse current and must be as small and short as possible (See Figure 6).

Figure 6—Layout Consideration
All logic signals refer to the signal ground. In order to reduce the noise affection, it is recommend to separate the power ground(PGND) and signal ground(GND), then connect PGND and GND together through single joint.
External MOSFET for Short Protection
When output voltage is higher than rating of LED1-4 pins, external MOSFET is needed for
