RT4532
High Efficiency Backlight LED Driver
General Description
The RT4532 is a high-efficiency LED driver for backlight
applications. An asynchronous boost converter with an
internal Schottky diode and a current source driver are
designed to support 6LED/channel with wide input voltage
range from 2.5V to 5.5V.
An I
2
C interface can provide easy backlight control in fast
and high speed mode. The RT4532 supports linear
mappings with 256 steps to setup the brightness of
backlight LEDs. It also supports PWM dimming to adjust
the brightness.
The RT4532 provides complete protection functions such
as input under-voltage lockout, over-current, output over-
voltage and over-temperature protection. The OVP
threshold voltage can be set at 16V and 24V for different
applications. The RT4532 is available in the
WL-CSP-10B 0.87x2.07 package.

Operation
The RT4532 is a high efficiency solution with 24 WLEDs
in 4 parallels 6 series for backlight applications. The
RT4532 optimizes the feedback regulation voltage to
provide up to 85% high efficiency with as high as 8bits
resolution application.
Linear Brightness Dimming
The RT4532 is built-in a I
2
C 8-bit resolution brightness
control with maximum 20mA/40mA selection.
Reg0x02<3> corresponds to full-scale LED current control.
Reg0x04 sets 8bits resolution brightness dimming.
PWM Brightness Dimming
Besides programmable built-in I C backlight LED current
control, the RT4532 features a built-in PWM dimming
current control by setting Reg0x02<6> to 1, offering a
linear current dimming by external clock source. In order
to guarantee the PWM dimming resolution, recommending
dimming frequency have to be operated at range of 400Hz
to 20kHz.
2
OCP Protection
The RT4532 features a 1.2A current limitation. Once
detecting current level over current limitation, the RT4532's
LX witching will be forced off to avoid large current damage.
OTP Protection
The over-temperature protection function will be latched
at shutdown status when the junction temperature
exceeds 140°C for 2ms. After re-power on sequence, the
converter will automatically resume switching.
OVP Protection
The over-voltage protection function monitors the output
voltage via the VOUT pin voltage. The OVP threshold
voltage is 24V/16V by selecting Reg0x02<7>. Once the
LED is open, the output voltage reaches the OVP
threshold, the driver will be shut down.
