FB Divider Using Three-Resistor Method

A FB-pin circuit using a three-resistor divider circuit can be used for applications where less than 200kΩ resistors are required.

LP8866-Q1 Three-Resistor FB Divider
                    Circuit Figure 6-6 Three-Resistor FB Divider Circuit

Maximum boost voltage can be calculated with Equation 7. The maximum boost voltage can be reached during OPEN string detection or if all LED strings are left disconnected.

Equation 7. LP8866-Q1

where

  • VREF = 1.21V
  • ISEL_MAX = 38.7µA
  • R1 / R2 normal recommended range is 7 to 15

The minimum boost voltage must be less than the minimum LED string voltage. Minimum boost voltage is calculated in Equation 8:

Equation 8. LP8866-Q1

When the boost OVP_LOW level is reached the boost controller stops switching the boost FET, and the BSTOVPL_STATUS bit is set. The LED drivers are still active during this condition, and the boost resumes normal switching operation once the boost output level falls. The boost OVP low voltage threshold changes dynamically with current boost voltage. It is calculated in Equation 9:

Equation 9. LP8866-Q1

where

  • VFB_OVPL= 1.423V
  • VREF= 1.21V

When the boost OVP_LOW level is reached the boost controller enters fault recovery mode, and the BSTOVPH_STATUS bit is set. The boost OVP high-voltage threshold also changes dynamically with current boost voltage and is calculated in Equation 10:

Equation 10. LP8866-Q1

where

  • VFB_OVPH = 1.76V
  • VREF= 1.21V

When the boost UVP level is reached the boost controller starts a 110ms OCP counter. The LP8866-Q1 device enters the fault recovery mode and sets the BSTOCP_STATUS bit if the boost voltage does not rise above the UVP threshold before the timer expires. The boost UVP voltage threshold also changes dynamically with current boost voltage and is calculated in Equation 11:

Equation 11. LP8866-Q1

where

  • VUVP = 0.886V
  • VREF= 1.21V
