Product details
Overview
LM2756TM/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 20-bump DSBGA-packaged, inductorless white LED driver IC supporting up to 8 LEDs across three independently controlled groups (Group A: up to 6 LEDs; Group B: up to 3; Group C: 1), with 32 exponential dimming steps for Group A, 8 linear steps for Groups B/C, and I²C-compatible digital control. It delivers up to 30 mA per channel, operates from 2.7V–5.5V input, and achieves up to 90% efficiency using adaptive 3/2× or 1× charge pump gain switching.
For engineers reviewing the LM2756TM/NOPB datasheet, LM2756TM/NOPB pinout, LM2756TM/NOPB application, or LM2756TM/NOPB equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-display backlighting capability, precise current matching (≤0.4%), hardware enable (HWEN) reset functionality, and compact 1.615 mm × 2.015 mm footprint suitable for space-constrained portable electronics.
Technical Context
The LM2756TM/NOPB implements an adaptive CMOS charge pump with dynamically selected 3/2× or 1× gain based on real-time monitoring of VDxx headroom voltage - transitioning at ~150 mV to maintain regulation as input voltage drops. Its internal current sinks are partitioned into three independent groups, each with dedicated brightness registers (A0h, B0h, C0h) and configurable assignment of auxiliary drivers D53/D62 via the General Purpose Register (10h).
Current scaling is set externally via RSET (ISET pin voltage fixed at 1.25 V), yielding full-scale output current = 189 × (1.25 V / RSET); Group A supports exponential dimming (0.125%–100% perceived brightness), while Groups B and C use linear 8-step control (10%–100%). Ramp timing for Group A is programmable in four steps (100 µs to 100 ms) via RS1/RS0 bits in register 20h.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - supports single-cell Li-ion and USB-powered systems without external LDO. |
| Total Output Current | Up to 180 mA - distributed across 8 current sinks (D1A–D4A, D1B, D53, D62, D1C) with flexible group assignment. |
| LED Current Accuracy | ±8% over temperature and input voltage - ensures consistent brightness across display segments. |
| Current Matching | ≤0.4% typical - minimizes visible luminance variation between parallel LEDs in same group. |
| Dimming Resolution | Group A: 32 exponential steps (800:1 dimming ratio); Groups B/C: 8 linear steps - enables perceptually uniform fade and low-light visibility. |
| Charge Pump Efficiency | Up to 90% - achieved via gain selection (1× pass mode or 3/2× boost) optimized per LED forward voltage and VIN. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.0–1.6 MHz - enables use of small 1 µF ceramic flying capacitors and reduces EMI. |
Pinout & Package
LM2756TM/NOPB uses a 20-bump, 0.4 mm pitch, thin DSBGA package (Package Number YFQ0020AAA; dimensions 1.615 mm × 2.015 mm × 0.6 mm), optimized for minimal PCB area (<21 mm² total solution size) and low profile in handheld devices.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power Input | Accepts 2.7–5.5 V supply; powers internal charge pump and logic; requires local 1 µF bypass capacitor. |
| VOUT | Charge Pump Output | Regulated output node (typ. 4.6 V in closed-loop mode); supplies all LED current sinks. |
| C1+, C1−, C2+, C2− | Flying Capacitor Interface | Connects to external 1 µF ceramic capacitors enabling 3/2× charge pump operation. |
| D1A–D4A, D53, D62, D1B, D1C | LED Current Sinks | Eight individually controllable constant-current outputs; D53/D62 assignable to Group A or B via register bit. |
| ISET | Current Reference Input | External resistor to GND sets full-scale current: IDxx = 189 × (1.25 V / RSET). |
| HWEN | Hardware Enable/Reset | Active-high pin; drives low to force full register reset and shutdown - no I²C required. |
| SCL / SDIO | I²C Interface | Standard two-wire interface (7-bit address 0x36); supports brightness, enable, and ramp configuration. |
| GND | Ground Reference | Two dedicated bumps (A4, D1) provide low-impedance return path for power and signal currents. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Inductorless architecture | Eliminates magnetic components and associated EMI, enabling ultra-thin designs with <21 mm² total solution size. |
| Adaptive gain switching | Automatically selects 1× (pass) or 3/2× (boost) charge pump mode based on real-time VDxx headroom, maximizing efficiency across VIN and LED VF variations. |
| True shutdown isolation | Disables all current sinks and isolates VOUT from LED anodes during shutdown - prevents leakage-induced glow in dark-mode displays. |
| Programmable auto-dimming | Configurable gain transition delay (60 µs to 6 ms) avoids spurious gain changes during brief input dips - improves system stability. |
| Internal soft-start | Limiting inrush current during power-up prevents input rail droop and protects upstream regulators and capacitors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar multi-group LED driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM3530TMX/NOPB | Supports 3-channel analog/PWM dimming; lacks exponential dimming; uses different I²C address (0x63) and register map. | Targeted at simpler dual-display systems without high-fidelity fade requirements. | Choose when linear dimming suffices and board layout allows rework for alternate pinout and control protocol. |
| TPS61165DRVR | Single-output boost LED driver with PWM-only dimming; no multi-group control or I²C interface. | Requires external logic for multi-LED sequencing; not suitable for independent group management. | Select only for cost-sensitive, single-backlight applications where software-controlled group dimming is unnecessary. |
Compared with LM3530TMX/NOPB and TPS61165DRVR, the LM2756TM/NOPB uniquely combines exponential dimming, true hardware reset, and flexible group reconfiguration - making it optimal for premium mobile UIs demanding precise luminance control and rapid system-level power management.

FAQ
What is the maximum number of LEDs the LM2756TM/NOPB can drive simultaneously?
The LM2756TM/NOPB supports up to 8 LEDs total: Group A accommodates 4, 5, or 6 LEDs; Group B supports 1–3; and Group C (D1C) drives 1 indicator LED. Auxiliary drivers D53 and D62 are configurable to either group, enabling flexible allocation - for example, 6 LEDs in Group A plus 2 in Group B. Total output current must remain ≤180 mA.
How does the LM2756TM/NOPB achieve high current matching across LED channels?
The LM2756TM/NOPB achieves ≤0.4% typical current matching through laser-trimmed internal current mirrors and matched transistor layouts within each group. Matching is measured per group (Group A worst-case, Group B worst-case), with specification guaranteed over −30°C to +105°C junction temperature and 2.7–5.5 V input range - critical for uniform display luminance.
Can the LM2756TM/NOPB operate without an I²C controller?
Yes - the LM2756TM/NOPB can function with basic on/off control using only the HWEN pin. Default power-on state enables Group A at full brightness (32-step code 0x1F), Group B at full (0xFF), and Group C enabled. Full dimming, group reconfiguration, and ramp control require I²C communication, but core LED driving is hardware-enabled.
What external components are mandatory for LM2756TM/NOPB operation?
Mandatory components include: one 1 µF input capacitor (CIN) at VIN, one 1 µF output capacitor (COUT) at VOUT, two 1 µF flying capacitors (C1+, C1−, C2+, C2−), and one RSET resistor from ISET to GND. All capacitors must be low-ESR ceramic (e.g., Murata GNM1M2R61C105ME18D). No inductors are required.
Does the LM2756TM/NOPB support automatic gain switching during operation?
Yes - the LM2756TM/NOPB continuously monitors VDxx headroom voltage across active LED pins. When any active sink voltage falls to ~150 mV, it triggers automatic transition from 1× (pass) to 3/2× (boost) gain to maintain regulation. The gain remains locked until next I²C write, preventing oscillation during transient conditions.
