DATASHEET
ISL97672B
6-Channel LED Driver with Ultra Low Dimming Capability
The
ISL97672B
is an integrated 6-channel power LED driver for
LCD backlight applications. The ISL97672B is capable of
driving LEDs with an input from 4.5V to 26.5V and a maximum
output up to 45V.
The ISL97672B employs an adaptive boost switching
architecture that allows direct PWM dimming with dimming
duty cycle as low as 0.007% at 200Hz or 0.8% at 20kHz. PWM
Dimming frequency can be as high as 30kHz.
The ISL97672B employs dynamic headroom control that
monitors the highest LED forward voltage string for output
regulation to minimize headroom voltage and power loss in a
typical multi-string operation. Typical current matching
between channels is ±0.7%.
The ISL97672B incorporates extensive protection functions
that flag whenever a fault occurs. The protections include
string-open and short-circuit detections, OVP, OTP, and an
optional output short-circuit protection with external fault
disconnect switch.
The ISL97672B is offered in a compact 20 Ld QFN 3x4
package and can operate in ambient temperatures of -40°C to
+85°C.

DESCRIPTION
A pull-down current output for external P-channel fault disconnect switch.
Input supply voltage for IC. Connect a 0.1µF decoupling capacitor close to this pin.
IC enable pin. Pull high to enable the IC. If EN is low for longer than 30µs, the IC will be disabled.
Internal 5V regulator. Connect a 1µF decoupling capacitor on VDC.
PWM input pin for direct PWM dimming control.
/FLAG is latched low under any fault condition and resets after input power is recycled or part is re-enabled. This pin
is an open drain that needs pull-up.
No connect.
Boost switching frequency set pin. Connect a resistor between this pin and ground to set up desired boost switching
frequency. See
“Switching Frequency” on page 9
for resistance calculation.
Analog Ground for precision circuits.
Current source and channel monitoring input for Channel 0, 1, 2 3, 4, 5. The unused channel inputs should be
connected to AGND.
Overvoltage protection input. See
“OVP and V
OUT
” on page 10.
LED DC current set pin. Connect a resistor between this pin and ground to set up maximum LED DC current. See
“Maximum DC Current Setting” for resistance calculation.
Boost compensation pin. Connect a RC compensation network between this pin and GND to optimize boost stability
and transient response.
Power ground.
Boost converter switching node
Electrically should be connected to PGND and AGND. For example, use the top plane as PGND and the bottom plane
as AGND with vias on the PAD to allow heat dissipation and minimum noise coupling from PGND to AGND operation.

NOTES:
4.
JA
is measured in free air with the component mounted on a high-effective thermal conductivity test board with “direct attach” features. See
TB379.
5. For
JC
, the “case temp” location is the center of the exposed metal pad on the package underside.
6. PSI
JT
is the junction-to-top thermal resistance. If the package top temperature can be measured, with this rating then the die junction temperature
can be estimated more accurately than the
JA
and
JC
thermal resistance ratings.
7. Refer to JESD51-7 high effective thermal conductivity board layout for proper via and plane designs.
