Ratio of Flash and Torch current deviates from 5:1 by RSET value in light-load of LED current.
The charge pump mode is automatically and optimally changed.
(From x1 mode to x1.5 mode)
(From x1.5 mode to x2.0 mode)
Power supply voltage goes down and this IC can’t keep constant LED current, then
the mode transition will start.
(From x1.5 mode to x1 mode)
(From x2.0 mode to x1.5 mode)
Power supply voltage goes up and the detection of VOUT and VBAT is worked, then
the mode transition will start.
4. Over voltage and current protection
This IC has VOUT over voltage and current protection for VOUT.
Even if LED pins are open, VOUT voltage is kept below limit voltage.
Even if VOUT pin is short to GND, current limiter works and restrains VBAT current.
5. UVLO function
This IC is shut down when VBAT is under Vuvlo voltage.
This IC automatically return initial operation when VBAT is up to Vuvlo voltage, and IC will return to normal operation.
6. Thermal shutdown function
This IC has a thermal shut down function.
It works above 175℃, and under the situation, IC will change the status from active to inactive.
To become under 175℃, IC will return to normal operation.
An excess in the absolute maximum ratings, such as supply voltage, temperature range of operating conditions, etc.,
can break down devices, thus making impossible to identify breaking mode such as a short circuit or an open circuit. If
any special mode exceeding the absolute maximum ratings is assumed, consideration should be given to take physical
safety measures including the use of fuses, etc.
(2) Operating conditions
These conditions represent a range within which characteristics can be provided approximately as expected. The
electrical characteristics are guaranteed under the conditions of each parameter.
(3) Reverse connection of power supply connector
The reverse connection of power supply connector can break down ICs. Take protective measures against the
breakdown due to the reverse connection, such as mounting an external diode between the power supply and the IC’s
power supply terminal.
(4) Power supply line
Design PCB pattern to provide low impedance for the wiring between the power supply and the GND lines. In this
regard, for the digital block power supply and the analog block power supply, even though these power supplies has
the same level of potential, separate the power supply pattern for the digital block from that for the analog block, thus
suppressing the diffraction of digital noises to the analog block power supply resulting from impedance common to the
wiring patterns. For the GND line, give consideration to design the patterns in a similar manner.
Furthermore, for all power supply terminals to ICs, mount a capacitor between the power supply and the GND terminal.
At the same time, in order to use an electrolytic capacitor, thoroughly check to be sure the characteristics of the
capacitor to be used present no problem including the occurrence of capacity dropout at a low temperature, thus
determining the constant.
(5) GND voltage
Make setting of the potential of the GND terminal so that it will be maintained at the minimum in any operating state.
Furthermore, check to be sure no terminals are at a potential lower than the GND voltage including an actual electric
transient.
(6) Short circuit between terminals and erroneous mounting
In order to mount ICs on a set PCB, pay thorough attention to the direction and offset of the ICs. Erroneous mounting
can break down the ICs. Furthermore, if a short circuit occurs due to foreign matters entering between terminals or
between the terminal and the power supply or the GND terminal, the ICs can break down.
(7) Operation in strong electromagnetic field
Be noted that using ICs in the strong electromagnetic field can malfunction them.
(8) Inspection with set PCB
On the inspection with the set PCB, if a capacitor is connected to a low-impedance IC terminal, the IC can suffer stress.
Therefore, be sure to discharge from the set PCB by each process. Furthermore, in order to mount or dismount the set
PCB to/from the jig for the inspection process, be sure to turn OFF the power supply and then mount the set PCB to
the jig. After the completion of the inspection, be sure to turn OFF the power supply and then dismount it from the jig. In
addition, for protection against static electricity, establish a ground for the assembly process and pay thorough attention
to the transportation and the storage of the set PCB.
(9) Input terminals
In terms of the construction of IC, parasitic elements are inevitably formed in relation to potential. The operation of the
parasitic element can cause interference with circuit operation, thus resulting in a malfunction and then breakdown of
the input terminal. Therefore, pay thorough attention not to handle the input terminals, such as to apply to the input
terminals a voltage lower than the GND respectively, so that any parasitic element will operate. Furthermore, do not
apply a voltage to the input terminals when no power supply voltage is applied to the IC. In addition, even if the power
supply voltage is applied, apply to the input terminals a voltage lower than the power supply voltage or within the
guaranteed value of electrical characteristics.
Ground wiring pattern
(10)
If small-signal GND and large-current GND are provided, It will be recommended to separate the large-current GND
pattern from the small-signal GND pattern and establish a single ground at the reference point of the set PCB so that
resistance to the wiring pattern and voltage fluctuations due to a large current will cause no fluctuations in voltages of
the small-signal GND. Pay attention not tocause fluctuations in the GND wiring pattern of external parts as well.
(11) External capacitor
In order to use a ceramic capacitor as the external capacitor, determine the constant with consideration given to a
degradation in the nominal capacitance due to DC bias and changes in the capacitance due to temperature, etc.
In terms of extremely high impedance of CMOS gate, to open the input terminals causes unstable state. Unstable state
occurs from the inside gate voltage of p-channel or n-channel transistor into active. As a result, power supply current
may increase. And unstable state can also cause unexpected operation of IC. So unless otherwise specified, input
terminals not being used should be connected to the power supply or GND line.
(13) Thermal shutdown circuit (TSD)
When junction temperatures become setting temperature or higher, the thermal shutdown circuit operates and turns a
switch OFF. The thermal shutdown circuit, which is aimed at isolating the LSI from thermal runaway as much as
possible, is not aimed at the protection or guarantee of the LSI. Therefore, do not continuously use the LSI with this
circuit operating or use the LSI assuming its operation.
(14) Thermal design
Perform thermal design in which there are adequate margins by taking into account the permissible dissipation (Pd) in
actual states of use.
