●Terminal processing
TEST pin= Connect to GND
N.C. = Nothing specified in particular. Open is recommended.
VREG= When IC is driving from the outside of 2.7~5.5V, short VBAT and VREG, and put the voltage to VREG
FAILSEL, PWMDRV= Connect to GND in case of fixing at L level. Connect to VREG of IC or the power supply of more
than 1.4V in case of fixing at H level .
LED1-6= When each LED driver are not used, connect to GND of IC
GND = Each GND is connecting inside IC, but, connect to GND of all board
RSTB= RSTB is used as a power supply of internal circuit.
So, you mustn’t input RSTB voltage with pull up resistor of several k. And, please care about the relation between VBAT
and RSTB enough. (ref. P9)
1) PWM current mode DC/DC converter
While BD6592MUV is power ON, the lowest voltage of LED1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 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 external Nch Tr
via the RS latch. In the period where external Nch Tr gate is ON, energy is accumulated in the external inductor, and in the
period where external Nch Tr gate is OFF, energy is transferred to the output capacitor via external SBD.
BD6592MUV has many safety functions, and their detection signals stop switching operation at once.
2) Soft start
BD6592MUV 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 RSTB is changed L H, when PWMPOW is changed L H, soft start becomes effective for within 1ms and soft start
doesn't become effective even if PWMPOW is changed L H after that.
And, when the H section of PWMPOW is within 1ms, soft start becomes invalid when PWMPOW is input to H more than
three times. The invalid of the soft start can be canceled by making RSTB L.
3) FAILSEL pin
When the error condition occurs, boost operating is stopped by the protection function, and the error condition is avoided.
On that occasion, the way to stop of boost operating by the protection function can be selected with FAILSEL pin. Details
are as shown in Fig.29, 30.
After power ON, when the protection function is operating under about 1ms have passed, the stop state of the boost
operating can be held through FAILSEL is H, the stop state can reset through RSTB is L.
And, boost operating is stopped when the protection function is operating through FAILSEL is L, but when the protection
function becomes un-detect, boost operating is started again. It never keeps holding the stop state of boost operating.
In PWM control by PWMDRV can’t use this function.
When it is off over 10ms on PWM control by PWMPOW using this function, it may be stopped the boost operating as
over current protection work at off on PWMPOW=L.
Object of protect function is as shown below.

4) External SBD open detect and over voltage protection
BD6592MUV has over boost protection by external SBD openand 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 external 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.
5) Thermal shut down
BD6592MUV has thermal shut down function.
The thermal shut down works at 175C or higher, and the IC changes from activation into non-activation. Because
non-activation is different from RSTB=L, it doesn’t’ be reset inside IC. Moreover, even if thermal shut down function works,
soft start, FAILSEL, selection the number of LED lines of the current driver and starting current setting at PWMDRV=L
related RSTB are hold.
6) Over Current Limit
Over current flows the current detection resistor that is connected to switching transistor source and between GND,
SENSP pin voltage 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 BD6592MUV is detected peak current, current more than over current setting value does not flow.
And, over current value can decide freely by changing over current detection voltage.
<Derivation sequence of detection resistor>
Detection resistor =Over current detection voltage / Over current setting value
TYP value of over current detection voltage is 100mV, MIN = 70mV and MAX = 130mV and after the current value which
was necessary for the normal operation was decided, detection resistor is derived by using MIN value of over current
detection value.
For example, detection resistor when necessary current value was set at 1A is given as shown below.
Detection resistor =70mV / 1A = 70m
MAX current dispersion of this detection resistor value is
MAX current = 130mV / 70m = 1.86A
<The estimate of the current value which need for the normal operation >
As over current detector of BD6592MUV is detected the peak current, it have to estimate peak current to flow to the coil by
operating condition.
In case of, ○ Supply voltage of coil = VIN ○ Inductance value of coil = L
○ Switching frequency = fsw MIN=0.8MHz, Typ=1MHz, MAX=1.2MHz
○ Output voltage = VOUT
○ Total LED current = IOUT
○
○ Efficiency = eff (Please set up having margin, it refers to data on p.3.)
○ ON time of switching transistor = Ton
Ton=(Iave × (1-VIN/VOUT) × (1/fsw) × (L/VIN) × 2)
Each current is calculated.
As peak current varies according to whether there is the direct current superposed, the next is decided.
(1-VIN/VOUT) × (1/fsw) < Ton peak current = Ipeak /2 + Iave
(1-VIN/VOUT) × (1/fsw) > Ton peak current = Ipeak
