FEATURES  
DESCRIPTION  
The LM3630A is a current mode boost converter  
which supplies the power and controls the current in  
up to two strings of 10 LEDs per string. Programming  
is done over an I2C-compatible interface. The  
maximum LED current is adjustable from 5 mA to  
28.5 mA. At any given maximum LED current the  
LED brightness is further adjusted with 256  
exponential or linear dimming steps. Additionally,  
pulsed width modulation ("PWM") brightness control  
can be enabled allowing for LED current adjustment  
by a logic level PWM signal.

The boost switching frequency is programmable at  
500 kHz for low switching loss performance or 1MHz  
to allow the use of tiny low profile inductors. A setting  
for a 10% offset of these frequencies is available.  
Over-voltage protection is programmable at 16V,  
24V, 32V, or 40V to accommodate a wide variety of  
LED configurations and Schottky Diode/Output  
Capacitor combinations.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with  
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.  
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more  
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

(1) Stresses beyond those listed under absolute maximum ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings  
only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under recommended operating  
conditions is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.  
(2) All voltages are with respect to the potential at the GND pin.  
(3) Internal thermal shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent damage. Thermal shutdown engages at TJ = 140°C (typ.) and  
disengages at TJ = 125°C (typ.).  
(4) For detailed soldering specifications and information, please refer to Texas Instruments Application Note 1112: DSBGA Wafer Level  
Chip Scale Package (AN-1112)  
(5) The Human body model is a 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5 kresistor into each pin. (MIL-STD-883 3015.7) .  
(6) In applications where high power dissipation and/or poor package thermal resistance is present, the maximum ambient temperature may  
have to be derated. Maximum ambient temperature (TA-MAX) is dependent on the maximum operating junction temperature (TJ-MAX-OP  
125ºC), the maximum power dissipation of the device in the application (PD-MAX), and the junction-to ambient thermal resistance of the  
part/package in the application (θJA), as given by the following equation: TA-MAX = TJ-MAX-OP – (θJA × PD-MAX).  
=
(7) Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is highly dependent on application and board layout. In applications where high maximum power  
dissipation exists, special care must be paid to thermal dissipation issues in board design. For more information, please refer to Texas  
Instruments Application Note 1112: DSBGA Wafer Level Chip Scale Package.

(1) Min and Max limits are specified by design, test, or statistical analysis. Typical numbers are not ensured, but do represent the most  
likely norm. Unless otherwise specified, conditions for typical specifications are: VIN = 3.6V and TA = +25ºC.  
(2) LED current sink matching between LED1 and LED2 is given by taking the difference between ILED1 and ILED2 and dividing by the  
average. This simplifies to (ILED1 ILED2)/(ILED1 + ILED2) x 2 at ILED = 10 mA. ILED1 is driven by Bank A and ILED2 is driven by Bank B.

Operation  
The LM3630A provides the power for two high-voltage LED strings (up to 40V at 28.5 mA each). The two high-  
voltage LED strings are powered from an integrated asynchronous boost converter. The device is programmable  
over an I2C-compatible interface. Additional features include a PWM input for content adjustable brightness  
control, programmable switching frequency, and programmable over voltage protection (OVP).  
Control Bank Mapping  
Control of the LM3630A’s current sinks is not done directly, but through the programming of Control Banks. The  
current sinks are then assigned to the programmed Control Bank (see Figure 74). Both current sinks can be  
assigned to Control Bank A or LED1 can use Control Bank A while LED2 uses Control Bank B. Assigning LED1  
to Control Bank A and LED2 to Control Bank B allows for better LED current matching. Assigning each current  
sink to different control banks allows for each current sink to be programmed with a different current or have the  
PWM input control a specific current sink.

PWM Input Polaritiy  
The PWM Input can be set for active high (default) or active low polarity. With active low polarity the LED current  
is a function of the negative duty cycle at PWM.  
HWEN Input  
HWEN is the global hardware enable to the LM3630A. HWEN must be pulled high to enable the device. HWEN  
is a high-impedance input so it cannot be left floating. When HWEN is pulled low the LM3630A is placed in  
shutdown and all the registers are reset to their default state.  
SEL Input  
SEL is the select pin for the serial bus device address. When this pin is connected to ground, the seven-bit  
device address is 36H. When this pin is tied to the VIN power rail, the device address is 38H.  
INTN Output  
The INTN pin is an open drain active low output signal which will indicate detected faults. The signal will assert  
low when either OCP, OVP, or TSD is detected by the LED driver. The Interrupt Enable register must be set to  
connect these faults to the INTN pin.

Boost Converter  
The high-voltage boost converter provides power for the two current sinks (ILED1 and ILED2). The boost circuit  
operates using a 10 μH to 22 μH inductor and a 1μF output capacitor. The selectable 500 kHz or 1MHz switching  
frequency allows for the use of small external components and provides for high boost converter efficiency. Both  
LED1 and LED2 feature an adaptive voltage regulation scheme where the feedback point (LED1 or LED2) is  
regulated to a minimum of 300 mV. When there are different voltage requirements in both high-voltage LED  
strings, because of different programmed voltages or string mismatch, the LM3630A will regulate the feedback  
point of the highest voltage string to 300 mV and drop the excess voltage of the lower voltage string across the  
lower strings current sink.  
Boost Switching Frequency Select  
The LM3630A’s boost converter can have a 1MHz or 500 kHz switching frequency. For a 500 kHz switching  
frequency the inductor must be between 10 μH and 22 μH. For the 1MHz switching frequency the inductor can  
be between 10 μH and 22 μH. Additionally there is a Frequency Shift bit which will offset the frequency  
approximately 10%. For the 500 kHz setting, Shift = 0. The boost frequency is shifted to 560 kHz when Shift = 1.  
For the 1MHz setting, Shift = 0. The boost frequency is shifted to 1120 kHz when Shift = 1.  
Adaptive Headroom  
Reference Figure 75 and Figure 76 for the following description.  
The adaptive headroom circuit controls the Boost output voltage to provide the minimal headroom voltage  
necessary for the current sinks to provide the specified ILED current. The headroom voltage is fed back to the  
Error Amplifier to dynamically adjust the Boost output voltage. The Error Amplifier's reference voltage is adjusted  
as the brightness level is changed, since the currents sinks require less headroom at lower ILED currents than at  
higher ILED currents. Note that the VHR Min block dynamically selects the LED string that requires the higher  
Boost voltage to maintain the ILED current, this string will have the lower headroom voltage. In Figure 76 this is  
LED string 2. The headroom voltage on LED string 1 is higher, but this is due to LED string 2 have an overall  
higher forward voltage than LED string 1. LED strings that have closely matched forward voltages will have  
closely matched headroom voltages and better overall efficiency.  
In a single string LED configuration the Feedback enable must be enabled for only that string (LED1 or LED2).  
The adaptive headroom circuit is control by that single string. In a two string LED configuration the Feedback  
enable must be enabled for both strings (LED1 and LED2). The VHR Min block then dynamically selects the LED  
string to control the adaptive headroom circuit.

Current Sinks  
LED1 and LED2 control the current up to a 40V LED string voltage. Each current sink has 5-bit full-scale current  
programmability and 8-bit brightness control. Either current sink has its current set through a dedicated  
brightness register and can additionally be controlled via the PWM input.  
Current String Biasing  
Each current string can be powered from the LM3630A’s boost or from an external source. When powered from  
an external source the feedback input for either current sink can be disabled in the Configuration register so it no  
longer controls the boost output voltage.  
Full-Scale LED Current  
The LM3630A’s full-scale current is programmable with 32 different full scale levels. The full-scale current is the  
LED current in the control bank when the brightness code is at max code (0xFF). The 5 bit full-scale current vs  
code is given by the following equation:  
ILED FULLSCALE = 5 mA + Code x 0.75 mA  
(1)  
With a maximum full-scale current of 28.5 mA.  
Brightness Register  
Each control bank has its own 8-bit brightness register. The brightness register code and the full-scale current  
setting determine the LED current depending on the programmed mapping mode.  
Exponential Mapping  
In exponential mapping mode the brightness code to backlight current transfer function is given by the equation:  
1
’ÿ  
+
»
Code  
ILED = ILED_ FULLSCALE x 0.8544-  
x DPWM  
÷
Ÿ
5.81818  
«
(2)  
Where ILED_FULLSCALE is the full-scale LED current setting, Code is the backlight code in the brightness register,  
and DPWM is the PWM input duty cycle. Figure 77 and Figure 78 show the approximate backlight code to LED  
current response using exponential mapping mode. Figure 77 shows the response with a linear Y axis, and  
Figure 78 shows the response with a logarithmic Y axis. In exponential mapping mode the current ramp (either  
up or down) appears to the human eye as a more uniform transition then the linear ramp. This is due to the  
logarithmic response of the eye.

Linear Mapping  
In linear mapping mode the brightness code to backlight current has a linear relationship and follows the  
equation:  
1

ILED = ILED_FULLSCALE  
x
x Code x DPWM  
(3)  
Where ILED_FULLSCALE is the full scale LED current setting, Code is the backlight code in the brightness register,  
and DPWM is the PWM input duty cycle. Figure 79 shows the backlight code to LED current response using  
linear mapping mode. The Configuration register must be set to enable linear mapping.

LED Current Ramping  
Startup/Shutdown Ramp  
The LED current turn on time from 0 to the initial LED current set-point is programmable. Similarly, the LED  
current shutdown time to 0 is programmable. Both the startup and shutdown times are independently  
programmable with 8 different levels. The Startup times are independently programmable from the Shutdown  
times, but not independently programmable for each Control bank. For example, programming a Start-up or  
Shutdown time, programs the same ramp time for each Control Bank. The Startup time is used when the device  
is first enabled to a non-zero brightness value. The Shutdown time is used when the brightness value is  
programmed to zero. If HWEN is used to disable the device, the action is immediate and the Shutdown time is  
not used. The zero code does take a small amount of time which is approximately 0.5 ms.

Run-Time Ramp  
Current ramping from one brightness level to the next is programmable. There are 8 different ramp up times and  
8 different ramp down times. The ramp up time is independently programmable from the ramp down time, but not  
independently programmable for each Control Bank. For example, programming a ramp up time or a ramp down  
time will program the same ramp time for each control bank. The run time ramps are used whenever the device  
is enabled with a non-zero brightness value and a new non-zero brightness value is written.

Test Features  
The LM3630A contains an LED open, an LED short, and Over Voltage manufacturing fault detection. This fault  
detection is designed to be used during the manufacturing process only and not normal operation. These faults  
do not set the INTN pin.  
Open LED String (LED1 and LED2)  
An open LED string is detected when the voltage at the input to either LED1 or LED2 has fallen below 200 mV  
and the boost output voltage has hit the OVP threshold. This test assumes that the LED string that is being  
detected for an open is being powered from the boost output (Feedback Enabled). For an LED string not  
connected to the boost output, and connected to another voltage source, the boost output would not trigger the  
OVP flag. In this case an open LED string would not be detected.  
Shorted LED String  
The LM3630A features an LED short fault flag indicating if either of the LED strings have experienced a short.  
There are two methods that can trigger a short in the LED strings  
1. An LED current sink with feedback enabled and the difference between OVP input and the LED current sink  
input voltage goes below 1V.  
2. An LED current sink is configured with feedback disabled (not powered from the boost output) and the  
difference between VIN and the LED current sink input voltage goes below 1V.

Over-Voltage Protection (Manufacturing Fault Detection and Shutdown)  
The LM3630A provides an Over-Voltage Protection (OVP) mechanism specifically for manufacturing test where a  
display may not be connected to the device. The over voltage protection threshold (OVP) on the LM3630A has 4  
different programmable options (16V, 24V, 32V, and 40V). The manufacturing protection is enabled in the Fault  
Status register bit 0. When enabled, this feature will cause the boost converter to shutdown anytime the selected  
OVP threshold is exceeded. The OVP_fault bit in the Fault Status register will be set to one. The boost converter  
will not resume operation until the LM3630A is reset with either a write to the Software Reset bit in the Software  
Reset register or a cycling of the HWEN pin. The reset will clear the fault.  
Fault Flags/Protection Features  
The Interrupt Status register contains the status of the protection circuits of the LM3630A. The corresponding bits  
will be set to one if an OVP, OCP, or TSD event occurs. These faults do set the INTN pin when the  
corresponding bit is set in the Interrupt Enable register.  
Over-Voltage Protection (Inductive Boost Operation)  
The over-voltage protection threshold (OVP) on the LM3630A has 4 different programmable options (16V, 24V,  
32V, and 40V). Over voltage protection protects the device and associated circuitry from high voltages in the  
event the feedback enabled LED string becomes open. During normal operation, the LM3630A’s inductive boost  
converter will boost the output up so as to maintain at least 300 mV at the active current sink inputs. When a  
high-voltage LED string becomes open the feedback mechanism is broken, and the boost converter will  
inadvertently over boost the output. When the output voltage reaches the over voltage protection (OVP)  
threshold the boost converter will stop switching, thus allowing the output node to discharge. When the output  
discharges to VOVP – 1V the boost converter will begin switching again. The OVP sense is at the OVP pin, so  
this pin must be connected directly to the inductive boost output capacitor’s positive terminal.  
For current sinks that have feedback disabled the over voltage sense mechanism is not in place to protect from  
potential over-voltage conditions. In this situation the application must ensure that the voltage at LED1 or LED2  
doesn’t exceed 40V.  
The default setting for OVP is set at 24V. For applications that require higher than 24V at the boost output the  
OVP threshold will have to be programmed to a higher level at power up.  
Current Limit  
The switch current limit for the LM3630A’s inductive boost is set at 1A. When the current through the NFET  
switch hits this over current protection threshold (OCP) the device turns the NFET off and the inductor’s energy  
is discharged into the output capacitor. Switching is then resumed at the next cycle. The current limit protection  
circuitry can operate continuously each switch cycle. The result is that during high output power conditions the  
device can continuously run in current limit. Under these conditions the LM3630A’s inductive boost converter  
stops regulating the headroom voltage across the high voltage current sinks. This results in a drop in the LED  
current.  
Thermal Shutdown  
The LM3630A contains thermal shutdown protection. In the event the die temperature reaches +140°C, the boost  
power supply and current sinks will shut down until the die temperature drops to typically +125°C.  
Initialization Timing  
Initialization Timing with HWEN tied to VIN  
If the HWEN input is tied to VIN, then the tWAIT time starts when VIN crosses 2.5V as shown below. The initial I2C  
transaction can occur after the tWAIT time expires. Any I2C transaction during the tWAIT period will be NAK'ed.

I2C-COMPATIBLE INTERFACE  
Data Validity  
The data on SDA line must be stable during the HIGH period of the clock signal (SCL). In other words, state of  
the data line can only be changed when SCL is LOW.

Figure 82. Data Validity Diagram  
A pull-up resistor between the controller's VIO line, and SDA must be greater than [(VIO-VOL) / 3mA] to meet the  
VOL requirement on SDA. Using a larger pull-up resistor results in lower switching current with slower edges,  
while using a smaller pull-up results in higher switching currents with faster edges.  
Start And Stop Conditions  
START and STOP conditions classify the beginning and the end of the I2C session. A START condition is  
defined as SDA signal transitioning from HIGH to LOW while SCL line is HIGH. A STOP condition is defined as  
the SDA transitioning from LOW to HIGH while SCL is HIGH. The I2C master always generates START and  
STOP conditions. The I2C bus is considered to be busy after a START condition and free after a STOP condition.  
During data transmission, the I2C master can generate repeated START conditions. First START and repeated  
START conditions are equivalent, function-wise.

Figure 83. Start and Stop Conditions  
Transfering Data  
Every byte put on the SDA line must be eight bits long, with the most significant bit (MSB) transferred first. Each  
byte of data has to be followed by an acknowledge bit. The acknowledge related clock pulse is generated by the  
master. The master releases the SDA line (HIGH) during the acknowledge clock pulse. The LM3630A pulls down  
the SDA line during the 9th clock pulse, signifying an acknowledge. The LM3630A generates an acknowledge  
after each byte is received.  
After the START condition, the I2C master sends a chip address. This address is seven bits long followed by an  
eighth bit which is a data direction bit (R/W). The LM3630A address is 36h. For the eighth bit, a “0” indicates a  
WRITE and a “1” indicates a READ. The second byte selects the register to which the data will be written. The  
third byte contains data to write to the selected register.

The interrupt status register is cleared upon a read of the register. If the condition that caused the interrupt is still  
present, then the bit will be set to one again and another interrupt is signaled on the INTN output pin. The  
interrupt status register is not cleared if the device is in sleep mode (Control: SLEEP_STATUS = 1). To  
disconnect the interrupt condition from the INTN pin during sleep mode, disable the fault connection in the  
Interrupt Enable register. An interrupt condition will set the status bit and cause an event on the INTN pin only if

APPLICATION INFORMATION  
Recommended Initialization Sequence  
The recommended initialization sequence for the device registers is listed below.  
1. Set Filter Strength register (offset=50h) to 03h.  
2. Set Configuration register (offset=01h) to enable the PWM and the feedback for Bank A, For example writing  
09h to the Configuration register, enables PWM and feedback for Bank A. Note the Bank B PWM and  
feedback need to be configured if Bank B is used, otherwise disable the Bank B feedback by clearing bit 4  
and disable the Bank B PWM by clearing bit 1.  
3. Configure the Boost Control register (offset=02h) to select the OVP, OCP and FMODE. For example writing  
78h to the Boost Control register sets OVP to 40V, OCP to 1.2A and FMODE to 500 kHz.  
4. Set the full scale LED current for Bank A and Bank B(if used), by writing to the Current A (offset=05h), and  
Current B(offset=06) registers. For example writing 14h to the Current A register selects a full scale LED  
current of 20 mA for Bank A.  
5. Set the PWM Sampler Hysteresis to 2 codes by setting Bit 7 of the Current A register. Set the PWM Sampler  
Lower Bound code to 6 by clearing Bit 6 of the Current A register. Note these settings apply to both Bank A  
and Bank B. If only Bank B is used, these setting are still necessary when PWM is enabled.  
6. Select the current control and enable or disable the LED Bank A and/or B by writing to Control  
register(offset=00h). For example writing 14h to the Control register select linear current control and enables  
Bank A.  
7. Set the LED brightness by writing to Brightness A (Offset=03h) and Brightness B(Offset=04h) registers. For  
example writing FFh to Brightness A will set the LED current to 20 mA, with the Current A register set to 14h  
and the PWM input is high.

PWM Input  
The PWM input can be assigned to any control bank. When assigned to a control bank, the programmed current  
in the control bank also becomes a function of the duty cycle at the PWM input. The PWM input is sampled by a  
digital circuit which outputs a brightness code that is equivalent to the PWM input duty cycle. The resultant  
brightness value is a combination of the maximum current setting, the brightness registers, and the equivalent  
PWM brightness code.  
PWM input Frequency  
The specified input frequency of the PWM signal is 10 kHz to 80 kHz. The recommended frequency is 30 kHz or  
greater. The PWM input sampler will operate beyond those frequency limits. Performance will change based on  
the input frequency used. It is not recommended to use frequencies outside the specified range. Lower PWM  
input frequency increases the likelihood that the output of the sampler may change and that a single brightness  
step may be visible on the screen. This may be visible at low brightness because the step change is large  
relative to the output level.  
Recommended Settings  
For best performance of the PWM sampler it is recommended to have a PWM input frequency of at least 30 kHz.  
The Filter Strength (register 50h) should be set to 03h. The Hysteresis 1 bit should be set in register 05h to 1  
when setting the maximum current for bank A. For example if max current is 20 mA, register 05h is set to 14h,  
change that to 94h for 1 bit hysteresis and a smooth min-to-max brightness transition.

Adjustments to PWM sampler  
The digital sampler has controls for hysteresis and minimum output brightness which allow the optimization of  
sampler output. The default hysteresis mode of the PWM sampler requires detecting a two code change in the  
input to increase brightness. Reducing the hysteresis to change on 1 code will allow a smoother brightness  
transition when the brightness control is swept across the screen in a system. The filter strength bits affect the  
speed of the output transitions from the PWM sampler. A lower bound to the brightness is enabled by default  
which will limit the minimum output of the PWM sampler to an equivalent code of 6 when the LEDs are turned  
on. A detected code of 1 will be forced to off. A minimum 2% PWM input duty cycle is recommended. Input duty  
cycles of 1% or less will cause delayed off to on transitions.  
Filter Strength, Register 50h Bits [1:0]  
o Filter Strength controls the amount of sampling cycles that are fed back to the PWM input sampler. A filter  
strength of 00b allows the output of the PWM sampler to change on every Sample Period. A filter strength of  
01b allows the output of the PWM sampler to change every two Sample Periods. A filter strength of 10b  
allows the output of the PWM sampler to change every four Sample Periods. A filter strength of 11b allows  
the output of the PWM sampler to change every eight Sample Periods.  
o The effect of setting this value to 11b forces the output of the PWM sampler to change less frequently then  
lower values. The benefit is this will reduce the appearance of flicker because the output is slower to change.  
The negative is that the output is slower to change.  
Hysteresis 1 bit, Register 05h, Bit 7  
o The default setting for the LM3630A has Bit 7 of register 05h is 0b. This requires the detection of a PWM  
input change that is at least 3 equivalent codes higher than the present code. If this bit is set to 1b, the  
hysteresis is turned off and the PWM sampler output is allowed to change by 2 code.  
o Setting this bit to 1b will turn off the 2 code requirement for the PWM sampler output to change. The benefit  
is the output change will be smoother. The negative is that there may be some PWM input value where the  
output could change by one code and it might appear as flicker.  
Lower Bound Disable, Register 05h, Bit 6  
o The default setting for the LM3630A has Bit 6 of register 05h is 0b. This turns on the lower bound where the  
minimum output value of the PWM sampler is an equivalent code of 6. If the PWM sampler detects an  
equivalent code of 0 or 1, the output will be 0 and the LEDs will be off. If the PWM sampler detects an  
equivalent code of 2 through 6, a current equal to code 6 will be output. Detection of any higher code will  
output that code conforming to the rules of Hysteresis above.  
o Setting Bit 6 of register 05h to 1b can be used to allow the output to be below an equivalent code 6. The  
output of the PWM sampler will match the input pulse width conforming to the rules of Hysteresis and  
equivalent codes 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are also allowed. The benefit is the output is allowed to go dimmer than in  
the default mode. The negative is at the low codes of 1 and 2, the LEDs may not turn on or the LEDs may  
appear to flicker.  
o Disabling the Lower Bound (05h Bit 6 = 1b) allows the minimum duty cycle to be detected at 0.35% PWM  
input duty cycle. At 30kHz PWM input frequency, the minimum pulse width required to turn on the LEDs is  
0.39% X 33 µS = 129 ns. There is no specified tolerance to this value.  
Minimum TON Pulse Width  
The minimum TON pulse width required to produce a non-zero output is dependent upon the LM3630A settings.  
The default setting of the LM3630A requires a minimum of 0.78% duty cycle for the output to be turned on.  
Because the lower bound feature is enabled, a value of 0.78% (equivalent brightness code 2) up to 2.35%  
(equivalent brightness code 6) will all produce an output equivalent to brightness code 6. At 30 kHz PWM input  
frequency, the minimum pulse width required to turn on the LEDs is 0.78% X 33uS = 260ns.  
Because of the hysteresis on the PWM input, this pulse width may not be sufficient to turn on the LEDs. It is  
recommended that a minimum pulse width of 2% be used. 2% X 33 µS = 660 ns at 30 kHz input frequency.  
Disabling the Lower Bound as described will allow a smaller minimum pulse width.

Maximum Power Output  
The LM3630A's maximum output power is governed by two factors: the peak current limit (ICL = 1.2A max.), and  
the maximum output voltage (VOVP = 40V min.). When the application causes either of these limits to be reached  
it is possible that the proper current regulation and matching between LED current strings will not be met.  
In the case of a peak current limited situation, when the peak of the inductor current hits the LM3630A's current  
limit the NFET switch turns off for the remainder of the switching period. If this happens, each switching cycle the  
LM3630A begins to regulate the peak of the inductor current instead of the headroom across the current sinks.  
This can result in the dropout of the feedback-enabled current sinks and the current dropping below its  
programmed level.  
The peak current in a boost converter is dependent on the value of the inductor, total LED current (IOUT), the  
output voltage (VOUT) (which is the highest voltage LED string + 0.3V regulated headroom voltage), the input  
voltage VIN, and the efficiency (Output Power/Input Power). Additionally, the peak current is different depending  
on whether the inductor current is continuous during the entire switching period (CCM) or discontinuous (DCM)  
where it goes to 0 before the switching period ends.  
For Continuous Conduction Mode the peak inductor current is given by:  
efficiency  
VIN x  
IOUT x VOUT  
VIN  
x 1 -  
+
IPEAK =  
VIN x efficiency  
2 x fsw x L  
VOUT  
(4)  
For Discontinuous Conduction Mode the peak inductor current is given by:  
2 x  
IOUT  
x
VOUT - VIN x efficiency  
IPEAK =  
fsw x L x  
efficiency  
(5)  
To determine which mode the circuit is operating in (CCM or DCM) it is necessary to perform a calculation to test  
whether the inductor current ripple is less than the anticipated input current (IIN). If ΔIL is < then IIN then the  
device will be operating in CCM. If ΔIL is > IIN then the device is operating in DCM.  
efficiency  
VIN x  
IOUT x VOUT  
VIN  
1 -  
x
>
VIN x efficiency fsw x L  
VOUT  
(6)  
Typically at currents high enough to reach the LM3630A's peak current limit, the device will be operating in CCM.  
The following figures show the output current and output voltage derating for a 10 µH and a 22 µH inductor, at  
switch frequencies of 500 kHz and 1 MHz. A 10 µH will typically be a smaller device with lower on resistance, but  
the peak currents will be higher. A 22 µH provides for lower peak currents, but to match the DC resistance of a  
10 µH requires a larger sized device.

IMPORTANT NOTICE  
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other  
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest  
issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and  
complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale  
supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.  
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms  
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary  
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily  
performed.  
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and  
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide  
adequate design and operating safeguards.  
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or  
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information  
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or  
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the  
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.  
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration  
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered  
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.  
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service  
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.  
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.  
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements  
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support  
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which  
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause  
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use  
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.  
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to  
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and  
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.  
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties  
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.  
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in  
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components  
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and  
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.  
TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of  
non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
