ZXLB1600
LCD AND OLED BIAS BOOST CONVERTER - STN, CSTN SCREENS
DESCRIPTION
The ZXLB1600 inductive switching boost converter
accepts an input voltage of between 1.6V and 5.5V and
provides an adjustable output voltage of up to 28V for
LCD and OLED bias. The device contains an output
switch and a second switch to isolate the coil from the
input to provide true isolation in shutdown mode. The
output can be adjusted by means of an externally
applied dc voltage, a PWM control signal, or external
feedback resistors and can supply typically 10mA of
output current at maximum output voltage. Higher
current is available at lower output voltages.
The input voltage range accepts a number of battery
solutions, including dual dry cell and single Li-Ion cells
and PFM operation mode allows the output to be
regulated with high efficiency under light or no load
conditions. The switching frequency range permits the
use of miniature surface mount inductors.
A low battery comparator is provided to indicate when
the input voltage has fallen to within
±2%
of a preset
threshold. This threshold is set internally , but can be
adjusted externally to any voltage within the supply
voltage range.

Note:
1) Minimum supply voltage should be maintained above 2V for operation at minimum temperature.
2) Shutdown current includes the operating current for the low battery comparator, which remains active in shutdown mode.
3) This is the dc value. The dynamic value may exceed 350mA during normal operation, due to switching delays, coil inductance and supply
voltage.
4) Efficiency is dependent upon the choice of external components, input/output voltages and load current.(see typical operating curves).

This is the minimum PWM frequency to maintain a continuous output. Lower frequencies can be used, but will result in gated operation of
the device i.e. device enters shutdown when EN is low (see Note 6).
This is the time for which the device remains active after the EN pin has been driven low. This delay allows a continuous output to be
maintained during PWM mode operation at frequencies higher than 10kHz.

BLOCK DIAGRAM
Device description
The device is a flyback boost converter, working in
discontinuous mode.
With reference to the chip block diagram and typical
application circuit, the operation of the device is as
follows:
Setting output voltage
With external voltage
The output voltage is equal to the voltage present on
the 'ADJ' pin of the device multiplied by the internal
resistor network factor (R1+R2)/R1. The ADJ pin is
connected to the internal reference voltage of value
V
ADJ(nom)
and by default will give a nominal output of
28V. However, if required, the ADJ pin may be
overdriven with an external dc voltage V
ADJ
, in order to
adjust the output voltage to a value lower than the
default value.
Control loop
When 'EN' is high, the control circuits become active. The
high side of the coil is connected to the input via a large
PMOS isolating switch (MP) and the low side to ground via
NDMOS transistor (MN). The current in the coil is allowed
to build up to an internally defined level (nominally 200 to
300mA) before MN is turned off. The energy stored in the
coil is then transferred to the output capacitor (C2) via
diode (D1). The output voltage is sensed at pin 'SENSE' by
internal resistors R1 and R2 (which may be shunted
externally at pin 'FB') and compared to a reference voltage
(1.23V nominal). A comparator senses when the output
voltage is above that set by the reference and its output is
used to control the 'off' time of the output switch. The
control loop is self-oscillating, producing pulses of 10 s
maximum duration (switch 'on'), at a frequency that varies
in proportion to the output load current. The minimum
'off' time of the output switch is fixed at 1.25 s nominal, to
allow time for the coil's energy to be dissipated before the
switch is turned on again. This maintains stable and
efficient operation.
