The Atmel mSilica MSL4164 compact, high-power LED string driver uses internal current control MOSFETs to sink up to 100mA per string, with current accuracy and matching better than 3%. The MSL4164 drive 16 parallel strings of 10 white LEDs each, for a total of 160 white LEDs per device. Sixteen interconnected devices control up to 2560 white LEDs.

The MSL4164 features a 20MHz SPI bus, and the MSL4163 offers a 1MHz I2C serial interface. Both interfaces support video frame-by-frame LED string intensity control for up to 16 interconnected devices to allow active area dimming. The devices include an advanced PWM engine that easily synchronizes to a video signal, and per-string phase adjustment to reduce unwanted LCD artifacts such as motion blur. Additionally, an on-chip EEPROM allows the power-up defaults to be customized through the serial interface.

The MSL4163/4 adaptively control the DC-DC converters that power the LED strings, using Atmel’s Adaptive SourcePower? technology. These efficiency optimizers minimize power use, while maintaining LED current accuracy.

A unique combination of peak current controls and pulse width management offer simple, full- screen brightness control, versatile area dimming, and a consistent white point. One external resistor sets the global peak reference current for all LED strings, and global peak current fine-tuning is available through an 8-bit register. Global string drive pulse width is adjusted with an 8-bit global intensity register, and individual string pulse width is modulated with 12-bit registers.

The MSL4163/4 feature fault monitoring of open circuit, short circuit, loss of video sync, and over-temperature conditions, and provide a fault output to notify the system controller. Detailed fault status and control are available through the serial interface.

The MSL4163/4 are offered in 6 x 6 x 0.75mm, 40-pin TQFN packages and operate over a -40℃ to 85℃ temperature range.
