Brief Description

KTD3137 is the ideal power solution for LED backlighting

and selfie flash in medium to large size LCD panels. It is a

highly integrated step-up DC-DC converter operating with

an input voltage from 2.7V to 5.5V, accommodating 1-cell

lithium ion batteries or 5V supply. It includes a high voltage

power NMOS, as well as three current sinks, resulting in a

simpler and smaller solution with fewer external

components. High switching frequency allows the use of a

smaller inductor and capacitor.

Each of the three regulated current sinks can regulate up

to 29.8mA in backlight mode. With a maximum of 32V at

the output of the step-up converter, each string can

connect up to 8-LED in series for a 24-LED application.

KTD3137 is equipped with I2C interface for various

controls. For additional flexibility, PWM dimming with wide

range frequency and duty cycle is included to support

Content Adaptive Brightness Control (CABC).

KTD3137 also adds selfie flash function to the existing

backlight solution by boosting the sink current up to

59.6mA/Ch and integrating a flash timeout of up to 1.5sec.

Various protection features are built into KTD3137,

including cycle-by-cycle inductor current limit protection,

output overvoltage protection, LED fault (open or short)

protection and thermal shutdown protection.

KTD3137 is available in a RoHS compliant 12-ball 1.19mm

x 1.64mm WLCSP or a 16-lead 3mm x 3mm x 0.75mm

Thin-QFN package.
