AAT3151  
High Efficiency 1X/1.5X/2X Charge Pump  
For White LED Applications  
ChargePump  
General Description  
Features  
The AAT3151 is a low noise, constant frequency  
charge pump DC/DC converter that uses a tri-  
mode load switch (1X), fractional (1.5X), and dou-  
bling (2X) conversion to maximize efficiency for  
white LED applications. The AAT3151 is capable of  
driving four white LEDs at a total of 120mA from a  
2.7V to 5.5V input. The current sinks may be oper-  
ated individually or in parallel for driving higher-cur-  
rent LEDs. A low external parts count (two 1µF fly-  
ing capacitors and two small 1µF capacitors at VIN  
and VOUT) makes the AAT3151 ideally suited for  
small battery-powered applications.

TDFN33-12 Package  
AnalogicTech's AS2Cwire™ (Advanced Simple  
Serial Control™) serial digital input is used to  
enable, disable, and set current for each LED with  
a 16-level logarithmic scale plus four low-current  
settings down to 50µA for optimized efficiency, with  
a low housekeeping current of only 50µA.  
The charge pump output of the AAT3151 is  
equipped with built-in protection for VOUT. Each  
current sink input has short-circuit and auto-disable  
to guard against LED failure conditions. Built-in  
soft-start circuitry prevents excessive inrush cur-  
rent during start-up. A low-current shutdown fea-  
ture disconnects the load from VIN and reduces  
quiescent current to less than 1µA.  
Applications  
Color (RGB) Lighting  
Programmable Current Sinks  
White LED Backlighting  
White Photo Flash for Digital Still Cameras  
The AAT3151 is available in a Pb-free, space-saving,  
thermally-enhanced, 12-pin 3x3mm TDFN package.

per channel. The AS2Cwire serial interface enables  
the AAT3151 and sets the constant current sink  
magnitudes. AS2Cwire addressing allows the LED  
main channels D1-D3 to be controlled independ-  
ently from the LED sub-channel D4.  
Functional Description  
The AAT3151 is a tri-mode load switch (1X) and  
high efficiency (1.5X or 2X) charge pump device  
intended for white LED backlight applications. To  
maximize power conversion efficiency, an internal  
sensing circuit monitors the voltage required on  
each constant current sink input and sets the load  
switch and charge pump modes based on the input  
battery voltage and the current sink input voltage.  
As the battery discharges over time, the AAT3151  
charge pump is enabled when any of the four cur-  
rent sinks near dropout. The charge pump initially  
starts in 1.5X mode. If the charge pump output  
drops enough for any current sink to become close  
to dropout, the charge pump will automatically  
transition to 2X mode.  
Constant Current Output Level Settings  
The constant current level for the LED channels is  
set via the AS2Cwire serial interface according to a  
logarithmic scale. In this manner, LED brightness  
appears to change linearly when the settings in the  
scale are traversed. Because the inputs D1 to D4  
are true independent constant current sinks, the  
voltage observed on any single given input will be  
determined by the difference between VOUT and  
the actual forward voltage (VF) of the LED being  
driven.  
The AAT3151 requires only four external compo-  
nents: two 1µF ceramic capacitors for the charge  
pump flying capacitors (C1 and C2), one 1µF  
ceramic input capacitor (CIN), and one 1µF ceram-  
ic charge pump output capacitor (COUT).  
Since the constant current levels for the AAT3151  
are programmable, no PWM (pulse width modula-  
tion) or additional control circuitry are needed to  
control LED brightness. This feature greatly reduces  
the burden on a microcontroller or system IC to  
manage LED or display brightness, allowing the  
user to "set it and forget it." With its high-speed seri-  
The AAT3151 constant current sinks can drive four  
individual LEDs with a maximum current of 30mA

AS2Cwire Serial Interface  
al interface (>1MHz data rate), the LED current  
drive can be changed successively to brighten or  
dim LEDs in smooth transitions (e.g., to fade out) or  
in abrupt steps, giving the user complete program-  
mability and real-time control of LED brightness.  
The AS2Cwire single wire interface is used to set  
the possible combinations of current levels and  
LED channel states. AS2Cwire has addressing  
capability for multiple data registers. With multiple  
data registers, the AAT3151 main and sub-chan-  
nels can be programmed together or independent-  
ly from one another.  
For each Max Current scale, there are 16 current  
level settings separated from one another by  
approximately 1dB. Code 1 is full-scale current and  
Code 15 is full-scale current attenuated by roughly  
14dB. Code 16 is reserved as a "no current" setting  
(see Table 1).  
AS2Cwire relies on the number of rising edges of  
the EN/SET pin to address and load the registers.  
AS2Cwire latches data or address after the EN/SET  
pin has been held high for time TLAT. Address or  
data is differentiated by the number of EN/SET ris-  
ing edges. Since the data registers are 4 bits each,  
the differentiating number of pulses is 24 or 16, so  
that Address 1 is signified by 17 rising edges,  
Address 2 by 18 rising edges, and so forth. Data is  
set to any number of rising edges between 1 and  
including 16. A typical write protocol is a burst of  
EN/SET rising edges, signifying a particular  
address, followed by a pause with EN/SET held  
high for the TLAT timeout period, a burst of rising  
edges signifying data, and a TLAT timeout for the  
data registers. Once an address is set, then multi-  
ple writes to the corresponding data register are  
allowed.  
The AAT3151 has an additional Low Current mode  
with reduced quiescent current. This mode is espe-  
cially useful for low-current applications where a  
continuous, low-current state is maintained. The  
reduction in quiescent current significantly reduces  
the impact due to maintaining a continuous back-  
lighting state.

AS2Cwire Addressing  
Max Current and Low Current Registers  
Five addresses are available to enable all of the  
part's functionality. Two 4-bit registers control the  
main and sub-channel, giving 16 settings for each.  
The main and sub-channel are programmed to the  
same constant current level by using Address 1. Use  
Addresses 2 and 3 to program the main and sub-  
channel independently. Use Address 4 to program  
the Max Current register, which sets the Max  
Current scale. Address 5 programs the Low Current  
register. The Low Current register controls the effi-  
cient Low Current mode.  
Use the Max Current and Low Current registers to  
program constant current settings outside of the  
20mA Max scale. By default (without changing the  
Max Current register), the AAT3151 operates in the  
20mA Max scale (see Constant Current  
Programming Levels). For example, to change to the  
30mA Max scale, address the Max Current register  
with 20 rising edges and pause for TLAT. Program the  
Max Current register with 2 rising edges and pause  
for TLAT. The part will next operate in the same Data  
row, but for the setting found in the 30mA Max col-  
umn. Next, to change to a different setting on the  
30mA Max scale, address the D1-D4 register with 17  
rising edges. Program the new constant current level  
with 1-16 rising edges. The part will update to the  
new Data setting according to the Constant Current  
Programming Levels table.  
When the Max Current register is programmed to 1,  
2, or 3, changing the data for Addresses 1-3 will  
result in the corresponding values found in the  
Constant Current Programming Levels table. When  
the Max Current register is programmed to 4, the  
part is programmed to operate in Low Current mode  
and the Data for Addresses 1-3 is irrelevant. In Low  
Current mode, the Low Current register takes  
precedence. See Table 2 for the current level set-  
tings and main/sub-configurations that result.  
The AAT3151 has a distinct Low Current mode with  
ultra-low quiescent current. For drive currents of  
2mA or less, the part operates with significantly  
reduced quiescent current. This is particularly use-  
ful for applications requiring an "always on" condi-  
tion, such as transmissive displays. As an exam-  
ple, to change to Low Current mode, address the  
Max Current register with 20 rising edges and  
pause for TLAT. Program the Max Current register  
with 4 rising edges and pause for TLAT. Address the  
Low Current register with 21 rising edges and  
pause for TLAT. Program the Low Current register  
with 1-16 rising edges. The part will update to the  
new Low Current mode setting and operate with  
significantly reduced quiescent current.

The AAT3151 has a thermal protection circuit that  
will shut down the charge pump if the die tempera-

during a short-circuit of the VOUT pin.

The AAT3151 is specifically intended for driving  
white LEDs. However, the device design will allow  
the AAT3151 to drive most types of LEDs with for-  
ward voltage specifications ranging from 2.0V to  
4.3V. LED applications may include main and sub-  
LCD display backlighting, camera photo-flash appli-  
cations, color (RGB) LEDs, infrared (IR) diodes for  
remotes, and other loads benefiting from a regulat-  
ed output current generated from a varying input  
voltage. Since the D1 to D4 constant current sinks  
are matched with negligible voltage dependence,  
the LED brightness will be matched regardless of  
the specific LED forward voltage (VF) levels.

In some instances (e.g., in high luminous output  
applications such as photo flash), it may be neces-  
sary to drive high-VF type LEDs. The low dropout  
current sinks in the AAT3151 make it capable of  
driving LEDs with forward voltages as high as 4.3V  
at full current from an input supply as low as 3.0V.  
Table 4: Low Current Register Settings—  
Address 5.  
Disabled Current Sinks  
Current sinks can be paralleled to drive high-cur-  
rent LEDs without complication.  
Current sink inputs that are not used should be dis-  
abled. To disable and properly terminate unused  
current sink inputs, they must be tied to VOUT. If left  
unconnected or terminated to ground, the part will  
be forced to operate in 2X charge pump mode.  
Device Switching Noise Performance  
The AAT3151 operates at a fixed frequency of  
approximately 1MHz to control noise and limit har-  
monics that can interfere with the RF operation of  
cellular telephone handsets or other communica-  
tion devices. Back-injected noise appearing on the  
input pin of the charge pump is 20mV peak-to-  
peak, typically ten times less than inductor-based  
Properly terminating unused current sink inputs is  
important to prevent the charge pump modes from  
prematurely activating. When properly terminated,  
only a small sense current flows for each disabled  
channel. The sense current for each disabled chan-  
nel is 120µA.  
1. Low Current mode requires the Max Current register to be set to Low Current Mode. Low Current mode is unaffected by the settings  
for Addresses 1-3.

tions. The AAT3151 soft-start feature prevents  
noise transient effects associated with inrush cur-  
rents during start-up of the charge pump circuit.  
The AAT3151 load switch mode is operational at all  
times and functions alone to enhance device power  
conversion efficiency when VIN is greater than the  
voltage across the load. When in load switch  
mode, the voltage conversion efficiency is defined  
as output power divided by input power:  
Power Efficiency and Device Evaluation  
The charge pump efficiency discussion in the follow-  
ing sections only accounts for the efficiency of the  
charge pump section itself. Due to the unique circuit  
architecture and design of the AAT3151, it is very dif-  
ficult to measure efficiency in terms of a percent  
value comparing input power over output power.  
POUT  
PIN  
η =  
The expression to define the ideal efficiency (η)  
can be rewritten as:  
Since the AAT3151 inputs are pure constant current  
sinks and typically drive individual loads, it is difficult  
to measure the output voltage for a given input (D1  
to D4) to derive an overall output power measure-  
ment. For any given application, white LED forward  
voltage levels can differ, yet the load drive current  
will be maintained as a constant.

This makes quantifying output power a difficult task  
when taken in the context of comparing to other white  
LED driver circuit topologies. A better way to quantify  
total device efficiency is to observe the total input  
power to the device for a given LED current drive  
level. The best white LED driver for a given applica-  
tion should be based on trade-offs of size, external  
component count, reliability, operating range, and  
total energy usage...not just % efficiency.

Charge Pump Section Efficiency  
The AAT3151 contains a fractional charge pump  
that will boost the input supply voltage when VIN is  
less than the voltage required on the constant cur-  
rent sink inputs. The efficiency (η) can be simply  
defined as a linear voltage regulator with an effec-  
tive output voltage that is equal to one and one half  
or two times the input voltage. Efficiency (η) for an  
ideal 1.5X charge pump can typically be expressed  
as the output power divided by the input power.  
The AAT3151 efficiency may be quantified under  
very specific conditions and is dependent upon the  
input voltage versus the output voltage seen across  
the loads applied to inputs D1 through D4 for a  
given constant current setting. Depending on the  
combination of VIN and voltages sensed at the cur-  
rent sinks, the device will operate in load switch  
mode. When any one of the voltages sensed at the  
current sinks nears dropout, the device will operate  
in 1.5X or 2X charge pump mode. Each of these  
modes will yield different efficiency values. Refer to  
the following two sections for explanations for each  
operational mode.

In addition, with an ideal 1.5X charge pump, the  
output current may be expressed as 2/3 of the

efficiency (η) can be rewritten as:

capacitors help maximize charge pump transient  
response. Since ceramic capacitors are non-polar-  
ized, they are not prone to incorrect connection  
damage.

Equivalent Series Resistance  
ESR is an important characteristic to consider when  
selecting a capacitor. ESR is a resistance internal  
to a capacitor that is caused by the leads, internal  
connections, size or area, material composition,  
and ambient temperature. Capacitor ESR is typi-  
cally measured in milliohms for ceramic capacitors  
and can range to more than several ohms for tanta-  
lum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors.

Capacitor Selection  
Careful selection of the four external capacitors  
CIN, C1, C2, and COUT is important because they will  
affect turn-on time, output ripple, and transient per-  
formance. Optimum performance will be obtained  
when low equivalent series resistance (ESR)  
ceramic capacitors are used. In general, low ESR  
may be defined as less than 100m. A value of  
1µF for all four capacitors is a good starting point  
when choosing capacitors. If the constant current  
sinks are only programmed for light current levels,  
then the capacitor size may be decreased.  
Ceramic Capacitor Materials  
Ceramic capacitors less than 0.1µF are typically  
made from NPO or C0G materials. NPO and C0G  
materials generally have tight tolerance and are  
very stable over temperature. Larger capacitor val-  
ues are usually composed of X7R, X5R, Z5U, or  
Y5V dielectric materials. Large ceramic capacitors  
(i.e., greater than 2.2µF) are often available in low-  
cost Y5V and Z5U dielectrics, but capacitors  
greater than 1µF are not typically required for  
AAT3151 applications.  
Capacitor Characteristics  
Ceramic composition capacitors are highly recom-  
mended over all other types of capacitors for use  
with the AAT3151. Ceramic capacitors offer many  
advantages over their tantalum and aluminum elec-  
trolytic counterparts. A ceramic capacitor has very  
low ESR, is lowest cost, has a smaller PCB foot-  
Capacitor area is another contributor to ESR.  
Capacitors that are physically large will have a lower  
ESR when compared to an equivalent material  
smaller capacitor. These larger devices can improve  
circuit transient response when compared to an  
equal value capacitor in a smaller package size.
