BD6586MUV

●Description of Functions

1) PWM current mode DC/DC converter
While BD6586MUV is power ON, the lowest voltage of LED1, 2, 3, 4 is detected, PWM duty is decided to be 0.5V
and output voltage is kept invariably. As for the inputs of the PWM comparator as the feature of the PWM current mode,
one is overlapped with error components from the error amplifier, and the other is overlapped with a current sense signal
that controls the inductor current into Slope waveform to prevent sub harmonic oscillation. This output controls internal
Nch Tr via the RS latch. In the period where internal Nch Tr gate is ON, energy is accumulated in the external inductor, and
in the period where internal Nch Tr gate is OFF, energy is transferred to the output capacitor via external SBD.
BD6586MUV has many safety functions, and their detection signals stop switching operation at once.

2) Soft start
BD6586MUV has soft start function.
The soft start function prevents large coil current.
Rush current at turning on is prevented by the soft start function.
After EN1, EN2 are changed L H, soft start becomes effective for within 1ms and soft start doesn't become effective
even if EN1, EN2 are changed L H after that.
And, when the H section of PWM is within 1ms, soft start becomes invalid when PWM is input to H more than three times.
The invalid of the soft start can be canceled by making EN1, EN2, PWM  L.
And, a soft start function doesn't work after a protection function release.

3) External SBD open detect and over voltage protection
BD6586MUV has over boost protection by external SBD open and over voltage protection. It detects VDET voltage and is
stopped output Tr in abnormal condition. Details are as shown below.
 External SBD open detect

In the case of external SBD is not connected to IC, the coil or internal Tr may be destructed. Therefore, at such an error
as VOUT becoming 0.1V or below, the Under Detector shown in the figure works, and turns off the output Tr, and
prevents the coil and the IC from being destructed.
And the IC changes from activation into non-activation, and current does not flow to the coil (0mA).

 Over voltage protection

At such an error of output open as the output DC/DC and the LED is not connected to IC, the DC/DC will boost too much
and the VDET terminal exceed the absolute maximum ratings, and may destruct the IC. Therefore, when VDET becomes
sensing voltage or higher, the over voltage limit works, and turns off the output Tr, and the pressure up made stop.
At this moment, the IC changes from activation into non-activation, and the output voltage goes down slowly. And, when
the output voltage becomes the hysteresis of the over voltage limit or below, the output voltage pressure up to sensing
voltage once again and unless the application error is recovered, this operation is repeated.

4) Thermal shut down
BD6586MUV has thermal shut down function.
The thermal shut down works at 175C or higher, and while holding the setting of EN1, EN2 control from the outside, turns
into non operation condition from operation condition. And at 175C or below, the IC gets back to its normal operation.

5) Over Current Limit
Over current flows the current detection resistor between switching transistor source and PGND, then the voltage of that
resistor turns more than detection voltage. Over current protection is operating and it is prevented from flowing more than
detection current by reducing ON duty of switching Tr without stopping boost.
As over current detector of BD6586MUV is detected peak current, current more than over current setting value does not
flow.

6) Under Voltage Lock Out(UVLO)
When VBAT declines in 2.35V (Typ.) from the condition of the power-on, DC/DC and a current driver are changed from a
state of movement to the condition at the time of the non-movement. And, it is returned in a state of movement when VBAT
is raised beyond 2.55V (Typ.).

●Operating of the application deficiency

1) When 1 LED or 1parallel OPEN during the operating the LED parallel which became OPEN isn't lighting, but other LED
parallel is lighting.
Then, Output boosts up to the over voltage protection voltage 25.5V because LED terminal can be 0V.
After the over voltage protection is detected, LED terminal of 0V isn’t cut from feedback loop.
Then, Output voltage will become normal voltage automatically.

2) When LED short-circuited in the plural
All LED continue to be turned on, unless LED terminal voltage become more than “LED terminal over voltage protection (11.5V)”.
When it was more than 11.5V, the line which short-circuited is only turned on, and LED current of other lines decrease or turn off.

3) When Schottky diode came off
All LED aren't turned on.
Also, IC isn't destroyed because boost operating stops by the Schottky diode coming off protected function.

4) When an output capacitor short.
All LED aren't turned on.
And, an IC isn't destroyed because boost stops by the SBD open protection function.
But, big electric current occurs, and a coil or SBD is likely to destroy it because the route of the GND short circuit of the
power supply  coil  output capacitor occurs.

5) When the resistance to connect it to the ISET terminal short.
All LED aren't turned on.
Because LED current limit works, all current drivers stop, and DC/DC maintains boost under the state without load.
And, it is returned in a state of normality by canceling a state of short.

●Start control and select constant current driver

BD6586MUV can control the start conditions by EN1, 2 and PWM terminals, and sets 0.4V or below EN1, 2 terminals, so IC
can power off. EN1,2 and PWM power on at more than 1.4V, constant current can select ON/OFF by the combination of EN
as shown below table.
When there is unused constant current driver, unused LED terminal is set “OPEN”.

○

EN1,2

DC/DC VOUT

In case you input control signs, such as EN1, EN2 and PWM in the condition that the standup of supply voltage (VBAT) is not
completed, be careful of the following point.

①Input each control signal after VBAT exceeds 2.7V.
②Please do not input each control sign until VBAT exceeds HI voltage of EN1, EN2 and PWM.
③When you input HI voltage to EN1, EN2 and PWM during the standup of VBAT, please give Min.100µs as the standup time

of VBAT from stable voltage to 2.7V.

There is no timing limitation at each input signal of EN1, EN2 and PWM.
If each control sign changes into a condition lower than VBAT in (1) and (2), it goes via the ESD custody diode by the side of
VBAT of each terminal. A power supply is supplied to VBAT and there is a possibility of malfunctioning. Moreover, when the
entrance current to the terminal exceeds 50mA, it has possibility to damage the LSI. In order to avoid this condition, as
shown in the above figure, please insert about 10k in a signal line, and apply current qualification.

●LED current setting range

LED current can set up Normal current by resistance value (RISET) connecting to ISET voltage.
Setting of each LED current is given as shown below.

Normal current = 20mA(24k/RISET)

Also, Normal current setting range is 10mA~25mA.
LED current becomes a leak current MAX 2µA at OFF setting.
