MSL2164:16串LED驱动器设计指南详解(独家)

时间:09-09 来源:互联网 点击:

MSL2164和MSL2166器件以高电流精度和LED串匹配来驱动外部MOSFET, 这些器件具有爱特梅尔LED驱动器产品系列中最宽的调光分辨率,能够提高对比度,与其它解决方案相比,功耗降低至少20%。

过去,TV OEM厂商必须计算合适的参数,以便有效地照亮所要求的显示屏背光区域。LED驱动器将生成算法以设置合适的LED串相位,优化背光与LCD面板的同步。 OEM厂商必须经常执行附加算法以调节LED串相位,确保背光在帧刷新期间完全同步。MSL2164和MSL2166具有多种脉宽调制(PWM)模式, 包括正向、逆向、拖尾和中心,由于新器件中集成了定时算法,设计复杂性得以降低,这确保背光在所有LCD像素已经稳定的最佳时刻照亮。

The MSL2164 and MSL2166 are highly integrated, flexible,16-string LED drivers that use external MOSFETs to allowhigh LED string currents and/or voltage. They include powersupply control to maximize efficiency and an advancedPWM dimming control circuit for regional dimming and 3DLED backlights. The drivers optionally connect to a videosubsystem to offer a simple architecture for use in LCD TVbacklight applications. Up to eight devices easily connecttogether to drive large numbers of LED strings in a system.

The drivers provide multiple methods of controlling LEDbrightness, through both LED regulation current control andthrough PWM dimming. Set the LED current to control colorand use pulse width control for brightness management andmotion blur reduction. An on-chip EEPROM stores all thedefault control register values, which are applied at start-upand reconfigured through the serial data interface.

The MSL2164/MSL2166 interface to a microcontroller or FPGA via SPI. The 20MHz bus addressable SPI interfacesupports up to eight devices per Chip Select line. LED PWMdimming is internally generated and synchronized to thevideo VSYNC and HSYNC signals or directly controlled by anexternal PWM drive signal applied to the PWM input. Theyalso feature phase spreading when external PWM dimming,with a progressive 1/16 phase delay per string to reduceLED power supply transient load and reduce power supplyinput capacitor size.

PWM dimming is either synchronized to an external signalapplied to PHI, generated from the internal oscillator forstand-alone applications or set directly by a signal at thePWM input. For video systems, derive the PHI signal fromVSYNC. A 1x to 32x frequency multiplier processes PHIfor PWM dimming at multiples of the video frame rate.

Individually program each string’s “on” time with up to 12-bitresolution when using the integrated PWM generator. Thefinal PWM dimming resolution depends upon the ratio of theprocessed GSC to processed PHI frequencies, because the“on” time is an integer number of GSC clock cycles between0 and 4095, and is scaled by the value of the 12-bit globalintensity register. Phase delay is also an integer number ofprocessed GSC clock cycles, to synchronize timing to thevideo frame. An on-chip frequency multiplier is provided inorder to fully utilize the 12-bit dimming range. The “on” timecount can be further scaled by a 12-bit global intensity value.

The processed GSC signal (the signal after being frequencymultiplied or divided, from either internally or externallygenerated signal at GSC) precisely sets each string’s phasedelay so that it is synchronized to its physical position onthe LCD panel, relative to the beginning, middle or endof the video frame. There are four different types of PWMmodulation modes, each defined by the part of the “on”time or off-time set by the PHDLYn[11:0] register (part o
