White LED Diver for
Backlight of Medium/Large-sized LCDs
BD9271KUT
General Description
BD9271KUT is a white LED diver used on backlight of
Medium/Large-sized LCDs. This IC can achieve
dimming function by SPI control. And through the SPI
correspondence, it can set the ON/OFF of each switch,
analog dimming and etc. The signals of PWM dimming
can set the frequency, ON time and delay of PWM by
inputting the external signals to the register.
BD9271KUT has equipped several protection functions
to deal with the abnormal states, including LED OPEN
protection, LED SHORT protection, external current
setting resistance SHORT protection, external MOS
transistor SHORT protection, etc. So it can be used in a
wide output voltage range and various load conditions.

Connect to external FET’s source terminal of LED constant current driver. Through the operations of constant current
driver, all CHs of S1-S16 terminals are outputted the set voltages at addresses of 02h, 03h, and S1-S16 proceed the
constant current operation.
By monitoring the voltage of this terminal, the external resistance SHORT detection of each CH and external MOS
SHORT during Drain-Source detection proceed.
When Dimming=HIGH, external resistance SHORT detection proceeds, and output the errors.
When Dimming=LOW, external MOS Drain-Source SHORT detection proceeds, and output the errors.
The detection voltage of Sx pin for RESSHORT, MOSSHORT protection corresponds to the register value of 02h, 03h
LEDREF (the normal operation voltage of Sx pin). Please refer to the condition of protections.
At output terminal of LED constant current driver, drain of external FET is connected. By monitoring the voltage of this
terminal, LED OPEN detection and LED SHORT detection of each terminal proceed.
When Dimming=HIGH, if LED is in SHORT mode or OPEN mode, error signals are outputted.
LED OPEN protection detected voltage ・・・0.1V(typ.)
LED SHORT protection detected voltage・・・5.0V(typ.)・・・(It can be changed by setting the LSP terminal. Details are
given in LSP Pin Description.)
When Dimming = LOW, the abnormal state when Dimming = HIGH just before continues. In other words, when
Dimming=HIGH and the abnormal state is detected, the error signal is still outputted even turned to Dimming=LOW.
To prevent the mistake of detection caused by the time change of state, abnormal detection mask can be set at address
of 04h.

VREF5V (49PIN)
The VREF5V pin is used to output power (5V) to the internal block of the IC and serves as a main power supply for the
internal circuit of the IC. Install a ceramic capacitor as close to this pin as possible in order to stabilize the power supply
voltage.

VCC
51PIN)
The VCC pin is used to supply power for the IC in the range of 9 to 35V. If the VCC pin voltage reaches 7.0V (Typ.) or
more, the IC will initiate operation. If it reaches 6.7V (Typ.) or less, the IC will be shut down. Basically, insert a resistor of
approx. 10 ohms in resistance between the VCC pin and the external power supply and install a ceramic capacitor of
approx. 1uF in capacitance in the vicinity of the IC.
(
STB
52PIN)
The STB pin is used to make setting of turning ON and OFF the IC and allowed for use to reset the IC from shutdown.
Note: Set the STB pin voltage below the VCC pin voltage.
Note: The IC state is switched (i.e., the IC is switched between ON and OFF state) according to voltages input in the STB
pin. Avoid using the STB pin between two states (0.8 to 2.0V).
(
GND
53PIN)
The GND pin is an analog circuit ground pin of the IC. Set the ground pattern as close as possible to that of resistors
connected to the S1 to S16 pins.
COMP1(55PIN)
The COMP1 pin is used to feed back the state of voltage to the external power supply in order to optimize the power
supply voltage for the LED layer.
Positive feedback voltage is output to a pin having the lowest voltage out of the D1 to D8 pins. If the lowest voltage of the
D1 to D8 pins is higher than 0.6V typical voltage, the COMP1 pin will become open-circuited. If the lowest voltage of
these pins is lower than 0.6V typical voltage, the internal NPN transistor of the COMP1 pin will turn ON. The COMP1 pin
is intended to connect to the output voltage monitor pin of the DC/DC converter.
The COMP2 pin is used to feed back the state of voltage to the external power supply in order to optimize the power
supply voltage for the LED layer.
Positive feedback voltage is output to a pin having the lowest voltage out of the D9 to D16 pins. If the lowest voltage of
the D9 to D16 pins is higher than 0.6V typical voltage, the COMP2 pin will become open-circuited. If the lowest voltage of
these pins is lower than 0.6V typical voltage, the internal NPN transistor of the COMP2 pin will turn ON. The COMP2 pin
is intended to connect to the output voltage monitor pin of the DC/DC converter.
CS(57PIN), CLK(58PIN,)
These pins are used to control the IC with the CS, CLK, DI, and DO serial interfaces. Input levels are determined by the
DVDD power supply of the digital block. For data input format and timing, refer to the description of Logic block to be
hereinafter provided.
High-level input
Low-level input
VSYNC(61PIN), HSYNC(62PIN)
The VSYNC and HSYNC input signals enable the PWM light modulation signal to make setting of PWM frequency, PWM
ON time, and PWM delay time. For data input format and timing, refer to the description of Logic block to be hereinafter
provided.
ERR_DET(63PIN)
The ERR_DET pin is used to output an IC error detection signal and provides the N-MOS open-drain output function. If
this pin is pulled up to the DVDD voltage of the IC or else, it will be set to output High voltage for normal operation. If any
error is detected, the internal NMOS of the IC will be put into ON state, setting the pin to output Low voltage.
Normal operation OPEN
LED error detection GND Level
When the ERR_DET pin is put into the GND Level, the LED has already caused an error. In this case, reading the
registers located at addresses 05h to 0Ch makes it possible to recognize what channel is in what type of error state. (For
detail, refer to the description of registers to be hereinafter provided.)
DGND(56PIN)
The DGND pin is a digital circuit ground pin of the IC. Lay out the DGND pin using interconnect independent of that for
the GND pin wherever possible.
DVDD(64PIN)
The DVDD pin is used to input power in the digital block of the IC in the range of 3.0 to 3.6V. When the DVDD pin voltage
reaches 3.3V (typ.), the IC will start operating. Insert a ceramic capacitor of approx. 1uF in capacitance between the DVDD
and DGND pins in the vicinity of the IC.
