Description
The STCF02 is a high efficiency power supply solution to drive a single flash LED in camera phone, PDAs and other hand-held devices. It is a buck-boost converter that guarantees a proper LED current control over the battery voltage (particularly in the case, when the output voltage is lower than the input voltage); the output current control ensures a good current regulation over the forward voltage spread characteristics of the Flash LED. Three logic input signals can select 5 modes of operation: Shutdown mode (quiescent current less than 1A typ), Shutdown mode with NTC active, Torch mode (drives the LED up to 250mA), Flash mode (up to 600mA), and Medium flash mode (reduces the flash current). This highly efficient converter is able to accept input current from the battery (lower than 1.5A), while limiting the peak inductor current to 2.3A (typ). Other features include Soft start control, thermal shutdown, short circuit protection, overvoltage protection, and LED temperature protection. An alternative to LED temperature protection is that a safety flash time-out feature can be implemented instead. This device is available in a QFN20, 4mm x 4mm, no-lead package (height is less than 1mm).

Note:
- The external components proposal should be considered as a design reference guide. The performances mentioned in the electrical characteristics table are not guaranteed for all the possible electrical parameters of the components included in this list. On the other hand the operation of STCF02 is not limited with the use of the external components listed above. - The CCOMP is optional and may be used if the error amplifier bandwidth (which by default is set to 2 KHz) has to be decreased because of an unstable driver function. Unstable operation could be caused by using different values of inductor and output capacitor then recommended.

6.1
Detailed operating description
Introduction
The STCF02 is a buck-boost converter, dedicated to power and control the current of a Power White Led in a camera cell Phone. The device operates at a constant switching frequency of 1.8MHz typ. It provides an output voltage down to 2.5V and up to 5.1 V, from a single cell 2.7 V to 5.5 V lithium-ion battery. The flash current is adjustable from 100mA to 600mA for the input voltage range from 2.7V to 4.5V. Torch current is adjustable from 25mA to 250mA. The device also includes a medium flash mode with the current set between the 25% of flash current and flash current. The device contains a pin for connection of NTC which senses the temperature of the LED.
6.2
Buck-Boost converter
Regulation of the PWM controller is made by sensing the current of the led through the RFLASH resistor (see Figure 2). Depending on the forward voltage of the Flash LED, the device can automatically change the operation mode between buck (step down) and boost (step up) mode. Three case can occur: Boost region (VO > VBAT): this configuration is used in most cases, as the output voltage (VO = VfLED + ILED x RFLASH) is higher than VBAT; Buck region (VO < VBAT); Buck / Boost region (VO ~ VI).
6.3
Flash mode
To select Flash mode the Enable pins have to be connected as follows: EN1=1, EN2=1, EN3=0. The STCF02 operates continuously to supply maximum current to the flash LED (up to 600 mA). The flash current can be adjusted by the RFLASH resistor. The control loop uses the FB2 pin to sense the voltage across RFLASH. The flash current is then programmed at: IFLASH= 160mV / RFLASH. For a flash current programmed at 600mA, the sensing resistor is equal to 0.27 . During this operation mode the MOS Switch between FB1 and RTBY pins is closed. If the EN3 is forced to High during Flash mode operation, the current is reduced to that of Torch mode. Such reduction of input power during transition from Flash to Torch mode is achieved within less than 30s. The NTC divider for measuring LED temperature is active.

6.4
Medium flash mode
To select this operating mode the Enable pins have to be connected as follows: EN1=1, EN2=0, EN3=0 In medium flash mode the current is set between the Torch and the flash mode levels and can be adjusted by connecting a resistor between the RMFL pin and the ground: The medium flash current is then programmed using the following equation: IMF=10-5/RFL * [3000+(13000*RMF/13000+RMF)]. (See Figure 12).

6.5
Torch mode
To select this operating mode the Enable pins have to be connected to any one of the follow states: EN1 = 0, EN2 = 1, EN3 = x EN1 = 1, EN2 = 1, EN3 = 1. The STCF02 can continuously provide a torch current adjustable between 25mA and 250mA. The torch current adjustment is made by resistor RTORCH (Figure 2). The control loop uses the FB1 pin to sense the voltage across RFLASH+RTORCH. The torch current is then programmed using the following equation: ITORCH=160mV/(RFLASH+RTORCH). If the programmed Flash current is 600mA (RFLASH = 0.27) and a 250mA Torch current is needed, the RTORCH resistance is equal to 0.37 . During Torch operation mode the MOS Switch between FB1 and RTBY pins is opened. The NTC divider for measuring LED temperature is active.
6.6
Shutdown mode
When the device is not used, two shutdown modes are available. They can be selected by the enable pins: EN1=0, EN2=0, EN3=X With this combination the NTC divider for measuring of LED temperature is not active. The quiescent current is less than 1A. EN=1, EN2=0, EN3=1 This combination of enable pins provides shutdown modes with an active NTC divider for sensing LED temperature. This Mode is useful for measuring the temperature before starting both TORCH and FLASH MODE operations.

6.7
Soft start
To avoid spikes the battery during start-up sequence, a soft start function has been implemented. This soft start is achieved by progressively increasing the feedback voltage reference. In the worst case scenario the start up time as defined below (IO = IMAX) will not exceed 6ms. Figure 13. Start up - LED current rise time
6.8
LED Failure Protection
The device is self protected when the LED fails as a result of a short or open circuit. Such performances are tested using a standard mobile phone Lithium battery with internal resistance 170m typ.
6.9
Overvoltage protection
The device includes a power switch protection that stops the operation of the PWM controller when the voltage at the pin VO exceeds the OVP threshold.
6.10
Thermal shutdown protection
Internal thermal shutdown protection will switch off the device when the junction temperature exceeds 140C typical. The hysteresis comparator allows for the automatic restart of the PWM controller, when the temperature is reduced by 20C.
6.11
Sensing of LED temperature by NTC resistor
The device is able to switch off the power circuit, if high temperature on the LED is detected (see Figure 14).

Safety shutdown in flash mode
