Product details
Overview
LM2754SQX from Texas Instruments is a 24-pin WQFN-switched capacitor flash LED driver IC optimized for mobile camera flash applications. It delivers up to 800mA total regulated output current across four parallel current sinks, supports adaptive 1x/1.5x/2x charge pump gain selection, operates from 2.8V–5.5V input, and integrates time-out protection and RF PA synchronization via TX pin.
For engineers reviewing the LM2754SQX datasheet, LM2754SQX pinout, LM2754SQX application, or LM2754SQX equivalent, key selection considerations include its 4-channel parallel current sink architecture, torch/flash dual-current programming via ISET1/ISET2 resistors, SEL pin-enabled 3-LED configuration support, thermal shutdown at 150°C, and 24-pin 4mm × 4mm WQFN package with exposed DAP.
Technical Context
The LM2754SQX implements an adaptive CMOS charge pump with closed-loop regulation that dynamically selects 1x, 1.5x, or 2x gain based on LED forward voltage and load demand-transitioning in 2ms (Flash) or 125ms (Torch). Its four independent current sinks each regulate up to 200mA (Flash) or 100mA (Torch), with headroom voltage of 550mV at 200mA.
Logic control includes EN (shutdown <1µA), T/F (mode select), TX (RF-synchronized torch override), and SEL (D4 disable), all with internal 500kΩ pull-downs. Internal soft-start limits inrush current, and time-out circuitry disables flash after 1 second unless interrupted by TX high.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Output Current | Up to 800mA total (200mA per sink in Flash mode); enables driving 1–4 white LEDs in parallel |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.8V–5.5V; compatible with single-cell Li-ion and Li-poly battery systems |
| Charge Pump Gains | Adaptive 1x/1.5x/2x; maintains VOUT regulation while maximizing efficiency across varying LED VF |

| Current Set Accuracy | ±7% at 50–100mA; ±11.5% at 200mA; determined by 1.25V reference and external RSET resistor |
| Headroom Voltage | 550mV at 200mA; defines minimum voltage drop across current sink to maintain regulation |

Pinout & Package
LM2754SQX uses a thermally enhanced 24-pin WQFN package (4mm × 4mm × 0.8mm, Package Code RTW0024A) with exposed die attach pad (DAP) for PCB-level thermal management. Pin 1 is marked by top-side dot; pins 23–24 are internally connected VINSW; pins 9/16/17 are GND; pins 4/6 are no-connect.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN, VINSW (22,23,24) | Input power supply connection | Must be tied together externally; supplies charge pump input and internal bias rails |
| VOUT (8) | Regulated output node | Connects to LED anodes; loosely regulated to 4.7V (1x/1.5x) or 5.1V (2x) under no-load |
| D1–D4 (12–15) | Current sink outputs | Sink regulated current to LED cathodes; each supports ≤200mA Flash / ≤100mA Torch |
| ISET1, ISET2 (10,11) | Current set reference inputs | 1.25V internal reference; RSET1/RSET2 to GND set torch/flash current per sink (IDx ≈ 800 × 1.25V/RSET) |
| EN (21) | Master enable control | Logic high (>1.2V) enables device; logic low (<0.4V) shuts down with <1µA IQ |
| T/F (20) | Torch/Flash mode select | High = Flash (ISET2); Low = Torch (ISET1); timeout disables flash after 1s unless TX active |
| TX (19) | RF PA synchronization input | High forces immediate switch to Torch current level during RF transmission pulse |
| SEL (18) | D4 current sink disable | High disables D4; enables 3-LED flash modules; D4 must be tied to VOUT when disabled |
| C1±, C2± (1,2,5,7) | Flying capacitor connections | Interface with internal charge pump switches; require low-ESR X5R/X7R MLCCs (2.2µF) |
| GND, GNDSW (3,9,16,17) | Ground return paths | All must be connected to common system ground; GNDSW ties to switch array ground |
Key Features

|---|---|
| No-inductor architecture | Reduces BOM count and board area; eliminates EMI concerns associated with magnetic components |
| Adaptive gain switching | Automatically selects optimal 1x/1.5x/2x charge pump ratio to maximize efficiency across LED VF variation |
| Integrated time-out protection | Prevents thermal damage by disabling flash current after 1 second unless overridden by TX signal |
| RF PA synchronization (TX pin) | Enables coordinated reduction of LED current during RF transmission to avoid battery droop and interference |
| True output disconnect in shutdown | VOUT is electrically isolated from VIN during EN = low; prevents backfeed into flash circuitry |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar switched-capacitor flash LED driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM3530TMX/NOPB | 4-channel I²C-programmable LED driver with analog dimming; no integrated charge pump - requires external boost converter | Supports dynamic brightness control via I²C; lacks time-out and TX sync features of LM2754SQX | Choose LM3530TMX/NOPB when digital interface and fine-grained dimming are required over integrated power conversion. |
| MAX8630YETA+ | 3-channel flash driver with integrated 2x charge pump; max 600mA total output; no TX pin or SEL functionality | Limited to 3 LEDs; lacks RF synchronization and 4th current sink; smaller 20-pin TQFN package | Choose MAX8630YETA+ only for cost-sensitive 3-LED designs where TX coordination and full 800mA capability are not needed. |
Compared with LM3530TMX/NOPB and MAX8630YETA+, the LM2754SQX uniquely combines 4-channel 800mA drive, adaptive gain charge pump, hardware-based TX synchronization, and SEL-configurable 3/4-LED support in a single monolithic IC-making it optimal for high-performance mobile flash where integration, timing precision, and RF coexistence are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum total output current supported by the LM2754SQX?
The LM2754SQX supports a maximum total output current of 800mA, distributed across its four regulated current sinks (D1–D4), with each sink capable of delivering up to 200mA in Flash mode or 100mA in Torch mode. This rating assumes proper thermal management using the exposed DAP and recommended PCB layout per TI Application Note AN-1187.
How does the LM2754SQX handle RF power amplifier interference during flash operation?
When the TX pin of the LM2754SQX is driven high, the device immediately forces LED current to the Torch level (set by ISET1) for the duration of the RF PA pulse, then automatically reverts to Flash current (ISET2) upon TX deactivation. This hardware-level synchronization prevents battery voltage droop and RF noise coupling without requiring firmware intervention.
Can the LM2754SQX drive fewer than four LEDs, and how is this configured?
Yes-the LM2754SQX supports 1-, 2-, 3-, or 4-LED configurations. To disable the fourth current sink (D4), assert a logic high on the SEL pin; D4 must then be connected to VOUT. The remaining three sinks (D1–D3) retain full 200mA Flash capability, enabling up to 600mA total for 3-LED modules while maintaining identical regulation accuracy and timing behavior.
What external capacitors are required for stable operation of the LM2754SQX?
The LM2754SQX requires four external MLCCs: CIN and COUT (4.7µF, 10V-rated), plus two flying capacitors C1 and C2 (2.2µF each). All must be X5R or X7R dielectric, low-ESR (<20mΩ) ceramic types-TDK C1608X5R1C225 (2.2µF) and C2012X5R1C475 (4.7µF) are validated equivalents. Tantalum or electrolytic capacitors are explicitly not recommended due to high ESR.
Does the LM2754SQX include thermal protection, and how does it behave?
Yes-the LM2754SQX incorporates junction thermal shutdown that disables all output current when die temperature exceeds 150°C (typ.), recovering automatically when temperature falls below 120°C (typ.). This protection works independently of time-out and shutdown modes. Effective thermal performance requires soldering the exposed DAP to a PCB thermal land with vias to inner ground planes, as specified in the WQFN-24 layout guidelines.
