SNVSA15B December 2013 – December 2015 LP8557
PRODUCTION DATA.
The device is designed to operate from an input voltage supply range from 2.7 V and 5.5 V. This input supply should be well regulated and able to withstand maximum input current and maintain stable voltage without voltage drop even at load transition condition (start-up or rapid brightness change). The resistance of the input supply rail should be low enough that the input current transient does not cause drop high enough in the LP8557 supply voltage that can cause false UVLO fault triggering.
If the input supply is located more than a few inches from the LP8557 additional bulk capacitance may be required in addition to the ceramic bypass capacitors. Depending on device EPROM configuration and usage case the boost converter is configured to operate optimally with certain input voltage range. Examples are seen in the Detailed Design Procedure. In uncertain cases, TI recommends contacting a TI sales representative for confirmation of the compatibility of the use case, EPROM configuration, and input voltage range.
