current is regulated. If VFB drops, VEA increases and  
therefore the power FET remains on longer so that VCS  
can increase to the level of VEA. The reverse occurs  
when VFB increases.  
Functional Description  
A constant current output converter is the preferred  
method for driving LEDs. Small variations in current  
have a minimal effect on the light output, whereas small  
variations in voltage have a significant impact on light  
output. The MIC3223 LED driver is specifically designed  
to operate as a constant current LED Driver.  
PWM Dimming  
This control process just described occurs during each  
DIM_IN pulse and when ever DIM_IN is high. When  
DIM_IN is low, the boost converter will no longer switch  
and the output voltage will drop. For high dimming ratios  
use an external PWM Dimming switch as shown in the  
Typical Application. When the dim pulse is on the  
external switch is on and circuit operates in the closed  
loop control mode as described. When the DIM_IN is low  
the boost converter does not switch and the external  
switch is open and no LED current can flow and the  
output voltage does not droop. When DIM_IN goes high  
the external switch is driven on and LED current flows.  
The output voltage remains the same (about the same)  
during each on and off DIM_IN pulse.  
The MIC3223 is designed to operate as a boost  
converter, where the output voltage is greater than the  
input voltage. This configuration allows for the design of  
driving multiple LEDs in series to help maintain color and  
brightness. The MIC3223 can also be configured as a  
SEPIC converter, where the output voltage can be either  
above or below the input voltage.  
The MIC3223 has an input voltage range, from 4.5V and  
20V, to address a diverse range of applications. In  
addition, the LED current can be programmed to a wide  
range of values through the use of an external resistor.  
This provides design flexibility in adjusting the current for  
a particular application need.  
PWM Dimming can also be used in the Test Circuit in  
applications that do not require high dimming ratios. In  
the Test Circuit, the load is not removed from the output  
voltage between DIM_IN pulses and will therefore drain  
the output capacitors. The voltage that the output will  
discharge to is determined by the sum of the VF (forward  
voltage drops of the LEDs). When VOUT can no longer  
forward bias the LEDs, then the LED current will stop  
and the output capacitors will stop discharging. During  
the next DIM_IN pulse VOUT has to charge back up  
before the full LED current will flow. For applications that  
do not require high dimming ratios.  
The MIC3223 features a low impedance gate driver  
capable of switching large MOSFETs. This low  
impedance provides higher operating efficiency.  
The MIC3223 can control the brightness of the LEDs via  
its PWM dimming capability. Applying a PWM signal (up  
to 20kHz) to the DIM_IN pin allows for control of the  
brightness of the LEDs.  
The MIC3223 boost converter employs peak current  
mode control. Peak current mode control offers  
advantages over voltage mode control in the following  
manner. Current mode control can achieve a superior  
line transient performance compared to voltage mode  
control and is easier to compensate than voltage mode  
control, thus allowing for a less complex control loop  
stability design. Page 9 of this datasheet shows the  
functional block diagram.  
Boost Converter operation  
The boost converter is a peak current mode pulse width  
modulation (PWM) converter and operates as follows. A  
flip-flop (FF) is set on the leading edge of the clock  
cycle. When the FF is set, a gate driver drives the power  
FET on. Current flows from VIN through the inductor (L)  
and through the power switch and also through the  
current sense resistor to PGND. The voltage across the  
current sense resistor is added to a slope compensation  
ramp (needed for stability). The sum of the current sense  
voltage and the slope compensation voltages (called  
VCS) is fed into the positive terminal of the PWM  
comparator. The other input to the PWM comparator is  
the error amp output (called VEA). The error amp’s  
negative input is the feedback voltage (VFB). VFB is the  
voltage across RADJ (R5). In this way the output LED

Output Over Voltage Protection (OVP)  
Application Information  
The MIC3223 provides an OVP circuitry in order to  
protect the system from an overvoltage fault condition.  
This OVP threshold can be programmed through the  
use of external resistors (R3 and R4 in the Typical  
Application). A reference value of 1.245V is used for the  
OVP. Equation 3 can be used to calculate the resistor  
value for R9 to set the OVP point. Normally use 100k for  
R3.  
Constant Output Current Converter  
The MIC3223 is a peak current mode boost converter  
designed to drive high power LEDs with a constant  
current output. The MIC3223 operates with an input  
voltage range from 4.5V to 20V. In the boost  
configuration, the output can be set from VIN up to 37V.  
The peak current mode control architecture of the  
MIC3223 provides the advantages of superior line  
transient response as well as an easier to design  
compensation.

Eq. (3)  
R4 =  
(VOVP/1.245) 1  
VDD  
The MIC3223 LED driver features a built-in soft start  
circuitry in order to prevent start-up surges. Other  
protection features include:  
An internal linear regulator is used to provide the  
necessary internal bias voltages. When VIN is 6V or  
below connect the VDD pin to VIN. Use a 10µF ceramic  
bypass capacitor.  
Current Limit (ILIMIT) – Current sensing for over  
current and overload protection  
DRVVDD  
Over Voltage Protection (OVP) – output over  
voltage protection to prevent operation above a  
safe upper limit  
An internal linear regulator is used to provide the  
necessary internal bias voltages to the gate driver that  
drives the external FET. When VIN is above 6V connect  
DRVVDD to VDD.  
Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO) – UVLO designed  
to prevent operation below a safe lower limit  
When VIN is 6V or below connect the DRVVDD pin to  
VIN. Use a bypass capacitor, 10µF ceramic capacitor.  
Setting the LED Current  
The current through the LED string is set via the value  
chosen for the current sense resistor RADJ which is R5 in  
the schematic of the Typical Application. This value can  
be calculated using Equation 1:  
UVLO  
Internal under voltage lock out (UVLO) prevents the part  
from being used below a safe VIN voltage. The UVLO is  
3.7V. Operation below 4.5V is not recommended.

Soft Start  
Soft start is employed to lessen the inrush currents  
during turn on. At turn on the following occurs;  
Another important parameter to be aware of in the boost  
converter design is the ripple current. The amount of  
ripple current through the LED string is equal to the  
output ripple voltage divided by the LED AC resistance  
(RLED – provided by the LED manufacturer) plus the  
current sense resistor RADJ. The amount of allowable  
ripple through the LED string is dependent upon the  
application and is left to the designer’s discretion. The  
equation is shown in Equation 2.

Reference Voltage  
The voltage feedback loop the MIC3223 uses an internal  
voltage of 200mV with an accuracy of ±5%. The  
feedback voltage is the voltage drop across the current  
sense resistor as shown in the Typical Application.  
When in regulation the voltage at VFB will equal 200mV.

MIC3223  
If high dimming ratios are required, a lower Dimming  
frequency is required. During each DIM_IN pulse the  
inductor current has to ramp up to it steady state value in  
order for the programmed LED current to flow. The  
smaller the inductance value the faster this time is and a  
narrower DIM_IN pulse can be achieved. But smaller  
inductance means higher ripple current.  
Figure 1. Soft start  
LED Dimming  
The MIC3223 LED driver can control the brightness of  
the LED string via the use of pulse width modulated  
(PWM) dimming. An input signal from DC up to 20kHz  
can be applied to the DIM_IN pin (see Typical  
Application) to pulse the LED string ON and OFF. It is  
recommended to use PWM dimming signals above  
120Hz to avoid any recognizable flicker by the human  
eye. PWM dimming is the preferred way to dim an LED  
in order to prevent color/wavelength shifting. Color  
wavelength shifting will occur with analog dimming. By  
employing PWM Dimming the output current level  
remains constant during each DIM_IN pulse. The boost  
converter switches only when DIM_IN is high. Between  
DIM_IN pulses the output capacitors will slowly  
discharge. The higher the DIM_IN frequency the less the  
output capacitors will discharge.  
Figure 3. PWM Dimming 20%  
Figure 3 shows that switching occurs only during DIM_IN  
on pulses. When DIM_IN is low the boost converter  
stops switching and the external LED is turned off. The  
LED current flows only when DIM_IN is high. Figure 3  
shows that the compensation pin (VCOMP) does not  
discharge between DIM_IN pulses. Therefore, when the  
DIM_IN pulse starts again the converter resumes  
operation at the same VCOMP voltage. This eliminates the  
need for the comp pin to charge up during each DIM_IN  
pulse and allows for high Dimming ratios.  
PWM Dimming Limits  
The minimum pulse width of the DIM_IN is determined  
by the DIM_IN frequency and the L and C used in the  
boost stage output filter. At low DIM_IN frequencies  
lower dimming ratios can be achieved.

In Figure 4 is at 100Hz dimming frequency and Figure 5  
is 1kHz dimming frequency. The time it takes for the  
LED current to reach it full value is longer with a lower  
Dimming frequency. The reason is the output capacitors  
slowly discharge between dimming pulses.  
Figure 7 shows the minimum DIM_IN pulse at these  
operating conditions before the ILED current starts to drop  
due to low VOUT. The converter is ON (switching) only  
during a DIM_IN pulse.  
Figure 7 shows that at this DIM_IN pulse width the  
converter is ON (switching) long enough to generate the  
necessary VOUT to forward bias the LED string at the  
programmed current level. Therefore this condition will  
result in the desired ILED  
.

Figure 6 shows the output voltage VOUT discharge

Figure 8 shows that at this DIM_IN pulse width the

drops. Therefore, this condition will not result in the  
desired ILED

Design Example  
Using Equation 5, the following values have been  
calculated:  
In this example, we will be designing a boost LED driver  
operating off a 12V input. This design has been created to  
drive 6 LEDs at 350mA with a ripple of about 20%. We are  
designing for 80% efficiency at a switching frequency of  
1MHz.

Selecting the inductor current (peak-to-peak), IL_PP, to be  
between 20% to 50% of IIN_RMS(nom), in this case 40%, we  
obtain:  
Use the next lowest standard value 0.56.  
ILED = 0.36A  
IIN_PP(nom) = 0.4 × IIN_RMS(nom) = 0.4 × 0.74 = 0.30AP-P  
The power dissipation in this resistor is:  
It can be difficult to find large inductor values with high  
saturation currents in a surface mount package. Due to  
this, the percentage of the ripple current may be limited by  
the available inductor. It is recommended to operate in the  
continuous conduction mode. The selection of L described  
here is for continuous conduction mode.  
PRADJ = ILED2 × RADJ = 71mW  
Use a resistor rated at quarter watt or higher.

VDIODE is the Vf of the output diode D1 in the Typical  
Application. It is recommended to use a schottky diode  
because it has a lower Vf than a junction diode.  
L =

0.3A ×1MHz  
These can be calculated for the nominal (typical) operating  
conditions, but should also be understood for the minimum  
and maximum system conditions as listed below.  
Select the next higher standard inductor value of 22µH.  
Going back and calculating the actual ripple current gives:

The average input current is different than the RMS input

low, then the average input current nearly equals the RMS

First calculate the RMS input current (nominal, min and  
max) for the system given the operating conditions listed in  
the design example table. The minimum value of the RMS  
input current is necessary to ensure proper operation.  
The saturation current (ISAT) at the highest operating  
temperature of the inductor must be rated higher than this.  
The power dissipated in the inductor is:

Output Capacitor  
Use 2.2µF or higher as a good safe min.  
In this LED driver application, the ILED ripple current is a  
more important factor when compared to that of the output  
ripple voltage (although the two are directly related). To  
find the COUT for a required ILED ripple use the following  
calculation:  
Rectifier Diode Selection  
A schottky diode is best used here because of the lower  
forward voltage and the low reverse recovery time. The  
voltage stress on the diode is the max VOUT and therefore  
a diode with a higher rating than max VOUT should be used.  
An 80% de-rating is recommended here as well.

MIC3223 Power Losses  
In this example use RLED_ac = 0.6for each LED.  
To find the power losses in the MIC3223:  
There is about 6mA input from VIN into the VDD pin.  
If the LEDs are connected in series, multiply RLED_ac = 0.6ꢀ  
by the total number of LEDs. In this example of six LEDs,  
we obtain the following:

There is a trade off between the output ripple and the  
rising edge of the DIM_IN pulse. This is because between  
PWM dimming pulses, the converter stops pulsing and  
COUT will start to discharge. The amount that COUT will  
discharge depends on the time between PWM Dimming  
pluses. At the next DIM_IN pulse, COUT has to be charged  
up to the full output voltage VOUT before the desired LED  
current flows.

Input Capacitor  
Snubber  
The input capacitor is shown in the Typical Application.  
For superior performance, ceramic capacitors should be  
used because of their low equivalent series resistance  
(ESR). The input capacitor CIN ripple current is equal to the  
ripple in the inductor. The ripple voltage across the input  
capacitor, CIN is the ESR of CIN times the inductor ripple.  
The input capacitor will also bypass the EMI generated by  
the converter as well as any voltage spikes generated by  
A snubber is a damping resistor in series with a DC  
blocking capacitor in parallel with the power switch (same  
as across the flyback diode because VOUT is an ac  
ground). When the power switch turns off, the drain to  
source capacitance and parasitic inductance will cause a  
high frequency ringing at the switch node. A snubber  
circuit as shown in the application schematic may be  
required if ringing is present at the switch node. A critically  
damped circuit at the switch node is where R equals the  
characteristic impedance of the switch node.

Rdymanic is the ac load the converter sees. When the load

sum of the RLED(ac) of each LED.

calculated from the slope of ILED vs. Vf plot of the LED.

Audio noise  
2. Even though the RRC is very short (tens of  
nanoseconds) the peak currents are high (multiple  
amperes). These fast current spikes generate EMI  
(electromagnetic interference). The amount of RRC  
is related to the die size and internal capacitance of  
the diode. It is important not to oversize (i.e. not  
more than the usual de rating) the diode because  
the RRC will be needlessly higher. Example: If a 2A  
diode is needed do not use a higher current rated  
diode because the RRC will be needlessly higher. If  
a 25V diode is needed do not use a 100V etc.  
3. The high RRC causes a voltage drop on the ground  
trace of the PCB and if the converter control IC is  
referenced to this voltage drop, the output regulation  
will suffer.  
Audio noise from the output capacitors may exits in a  
standard boost LED converter. The physical dimensions  
of ceramic capacitors change with the voltage applied to  
them. During PWM Dimming, the output capacitors in  
standard converters are subjected to fast voltage and  
current transients that may cause the output capacitors  
to oscillate at the PWM Dimming frequency. This is one  
reason users may want PWM dimming frequencies  
above the audio range.  
PCB Layout  
1. All typologies of DC-to-DC converters have a  
Reverse Recovery Current (RRC) of the flyback  
or (freewheeling) diode. Even a Schottky diode,  
which is advertised as having zero RRC, it really  
is not zero. The RRC of the freewheeling diode  
in a boost converter is even greater than in the  
Buck converter. This is because the output  
voltage is higher than the input voltage and the  
diode has to charge up to –VOUT during each on-  
time pulse and then discharge to Vf during the  
off-time.  
4. For good output regulation, it is important to connect  
the IC’s reference to the same point as the output  
capacitors to avoid the voltage drop caused by RRC.  
This is also called a star connection or single point  
grounding.  
5. Feedback trace: The high impedance traces of the  
FB should be short.
