4 / 13 page SP4416DS/06 SP4416 Electroluminescent Lamp Driver with 4-Level Light Intensity Selection Feature © Copyright 1999 Sipex Corporation 4 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONS Oscillator Section The SP4416 uses an internal oscillator circuit that has the frequency set by C OSC. The oscillator produces a 32kHz clock signal used internally and is divided down to create f COIL and fLAMP. The ratio of the coil frequency (f COIL) and the H-bridge (f LAMP) is fixed. Intensity Setting As with the SP4415, the SP4416 incorporates an intensity select pin that will select one of four light output intensity levels. The ENLI pin serves as both an enable function and level select. This pin is edge triggered and enables on the rising edge or LOW-HIGH transition. The ENLI input is not debounced requiring chatterless ENLI transitions. In order to set a level, the ENLI pin should be asserted with a logic HIGH, and then asserted with a logic LOW. An internal pull-down resistor will keep the EL driver disabled unless defined by a logic HIGH. To increment the intensity sequence, the ENLI should be asserted with another LOW- HIGH transition within the next 800 µS in order to step to the next light intensity. From power-up, the first enable high will produce 100% of the output. The next LOW-HIGH transition will start the output back at the first level of intensity. The next set of four LOW-HIGH transitions will increment the output to the highest intensity at 100%. If set to a desired intensity, the ENLI pin should remain HIGH to maintain the desired intensity. Refer to Figure 6 for a timing diagram. A time greater than 8ms between the falling edge of the previous transition to the next ENLI transition will leave the EL driver output disabled until a logic HIGH is asserted back into the ENLI pin. A timing less than 800 µs between the falling edge of the previous transition to the next ENLI transition will increment to the next output intensity. Refer to Figure 7 for timing diagram. When the ENLI sees the next LOW-HIGH transition, longer than 8ms, the output will revive to the output intensity (VPEAK) just before being disabled. Refer to Figure 8 for timing diagram. Coil As in our other EL drivers, the SP4416 uses the coil to generate current to drive the H-bridge. Energy is stored in the coil according to the equation E L = 1/2LIP 2 where I P, to the first approximation, is the product I P = (tON)(VBATTERY - VCE)/L), where tON is the time it takes for the coil to reach its peak current, V CE is the voltage drop across the internal NPN transistor for f COIL, and L is the inductance of the coil. When the NPN transistor switch is off, the energy is forced through an internal diode which drives the switched H-bridge network. This energy recovery is directly related to the brightness of the EL lamp output. The f COIL signal controls a switch that connects the end of the coil at pin 6 to ground or to open circuit. During the time when the f COIL signal is HIGH, the coil is connected from V BATTERY to ground and a charged magnetic field is created in the coil. When the f COIL signal is LOW, the ground connection is switched open, the field collapses, and the energy in the inductor is forced to flow toward the high voltage H-bridge switches. As a result, charge pulses are delivered to the lamp at a rate defined by f COIL. Each pulse increases the voltage drop across the lamp in discrete steps. As the voltage potential approaches its maximum, the steps become smaller. The preferred coil has a typical height of 2.0mm and a maximum height of 2.2mm. The Toko D52FU family with part number 875FU-272M, which offers a 2.7mH/45ohm coil that complies with the height requirement. H-Bridge The H-bridge consists of two SCR structures that act as high voltage switches. These two switches control the polarity of how the lamp is charged. The SCR switches are controlled by the f LAMP signal which is the oscillator frequency divided by 32. When the energy from the coil is released, a high voltage spike is created triggering the SCR switches. The direction of current flow is determined by which SCR is enabled. |
