Product details
Overview
LM2756TMX/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 20-bump DSBGA-packaged, inductorless white LED driver IC that delivers up to 180mA total output current across three independently controlled groups (Group A: up to 6 LEDs @ 30mA each; Group B: up to 3 LEDs; Group C: 1 indicator LED), features 32-step exponential dimming for Group A and 8-step linear dimming for Groups B/C, and operates from 2.7V–5.5V input for portable LCD backlighting applications.
For engineers reviewing the LM2756TMX/NOPB datasheet, LM2756TMX/NOPB pinout, LM2756TMX/NOPB application, or LM2756TMX/NOPB equivalent, this page provides verified technical context on adaptive 3/2×–1× charge pump operation, I²C-controlled brightness registers (0xA0/0xB0/0xC0), current matching (≤0.4%), hardware enable (HWEN) reset behavior, and DSBGA-20 package layout constraints - all critical for dual-display power management design.
Technical Context
The LM2756TMX/NOPB implements an adaptive CMOS charge pump with automatic gain selection (1× or 3/2×) based on real-time monitoring of VDxx headroom voltage (threshold: 150mV); gain transitions are delayed via configurable VF Monitor Delay Register (0x60) to ignore transient input dips. It uses internal current mirrors referenced to a 1.25V ISET pin voltage to achieve 0.4% typical current matching across Group A sinks.
LED brightness is controlled via I²C interface (slave address 0x36) with dedicated registers: Group A (0xA0, 32 exponential steps), Group B (0xB0, 8 linear steps), Group C (0xC0, 8 linear steps), and ramp timing (0x20) affecting only Group A. The HWEN pin provides hardware-level reset independent of I²C communication.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion and USB-powered systems without external LDO. |
| Total Output Current | 180mA max - distributed across 8 current sinks (D1A–D4A, D1B, D53, D62, D1C) with per-sink limit of 30mA. |
| Dimming Resolution | Group A: 32 exponential steps (800:1 ratio); Groups B/C: 8 linear steps - enables perceptually uniform brightness control. |
| Charge Pump Efficiency | Up to 90% - achieved via adaptive 3/2×/1× gain switching and low ROUT (0.9Ω pass-mode, 2.4Ω 3/2× mode). |
| Current Matching Accuracy | 0.4% typical - ensures consistent LED brightness across multi-LED arrays without external calibration. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.0–1.6MHz - allows use of small 1µF ceramic flying capacitors (e.g., Murata GNM1M2R61C105ME18D) and minimizes EMI. |
| I²C Interface | Standard-mode compatible (up to 400kHz), slave address 0x36 - enables integration with microcontroller-based display subsystems. |
Pinout & Package
LM2756TMX/NOPB uses a 20-bump, 0.4mm pitch, 1.615mm × 2.015mm × 0.6mm thin DSBGA package (TI package code YFQ0020AAA), optimized for space-constrained portable designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power Input | Supplies charge pump and logic; must be decoupled with ≥1µF ceramic capacitor near package. |
| VOUT | Charge Pump Output | Regulated high-side rail for LED anodes; voltage tracks VIN in 1× mode or boosts to ~4.6V in 3/2× mode. |
| C1+, C1−, C2+, C2− | Flying Capacitor Terminals | Connect external 1µF MLCCs to implement charge pump; polarity-sensitive layout required. |
| D1A–D4A, D53, D62 | Group A LED Sinks | Current-sinking outputs configurable for main display (4–6 LEDs); matched within 0.4%. |
| D1B | Group B LED Sink | Configurable for secondary display or keypad lighting (1–3 LEDs); shares ISET reference with Group A. |
| D1C | Group C Indicator Sink | Dedicated single-LED driver for status indicators; full-scale current set by same RSET. |
| ISET | Current Reference Input | Resistor (RSET) from ISET to GND sets full-scale current: ILED = 189 × (1.25V / RSET). |
| HWEN | Hardware Enable | Active-high reset: drives low to force shutdown and clear internal registers; threshold 0.58V/1.075V. |
| SCL / SDIO | I²C Interface | Standard bidirectional I²C bus (SCL clock, SDIO data); requires external pull-ups to VIO. |
| GND | Ground Reference | Two dedicated bumps (A4, D1) - must connect to low-impedance PCB ground plane for thermal and noise control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Inductorless architecture | Eliminates magnetic components and associated EMI; enables <21mm² total solution size with 1µF capacitors. |
| True shutdown isolation | Internal disconnect of all LED sinks during shutdown - prevents leakage current from draining battery in standby. |
| Programmable auto-dimming | VF Monitor Delay Register (0x60) configures gain transition delay (60µs–6ms) to suppress false triggers from supply transients. |
| Internal soft-start | Limit inrush current during power-up - avoids input voltage droop and protects upstream regulators. |
| Wide temperature range | Specified operation from –30°C to +105°C junction temperature - suitable for automotive infotainment displays. |

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; no exponential dimming; higher quiescent current (3.5mA vs 2.5mA). | Targeted at RGB LED control with ambient light sensor interface - less optimal for monochrome exponential backlight scaling. | Select LM3530TMX/NOPB only when ambient light feedback or PWM blending is required. |
| TPS61165DRVR | Single-output boost converter; no multi-group control; requires external inductor; 1.2MHz fixed frequency. | Designed for single-string high-voltage LED strings (>15V), not parallel low-VF configurations. | Choose TPS61165DRVR for high-VF LEDs or when inductor-based efficiency is acceptable. |
Compared with LM2756TMX/NOPB, LM3530TMX/NOPB offers ambient light integration but lacks exponential dimming and tighter current matching, while TPS61165DRVR provides higher output voltage capability at the cost of inductor size and absence of multi-group control - making LM2756TMX/NOPB uniquely suited for compact dual-display backlighting with precision current matching.

FAQ
What is the maximum number of LEDs the LM2756TMX/NOPB can drive simultaneously?
The LM2756TMX/NOPB supports up to 8 LEDs total: Group A (D1A–D4A, D53, D62) can drive 4–6 LEDs, Group B (D1B) handles 1–3 LEDs, and Group C (D1C) drives 1 indicator LED. Total output current is limited to 180mA, with no individual sink exceeding 30mA. Configuration is set via I²C registers (e.g., 53A/62A bits in General Purpose Register 0x10) to assign D53/D62 to Group A or B.
How does the LM2756TMX/NOPB select between 1× and 3/2× charge pump gain modes?
The LM2756TMX/NOPB monitors headroom voltage (VDxx = VOUT − VLED) on active LED sinks. When any active Dxx pin voltage drops to ≈150mV, it triggers a switch from 1× to 3/2× gain to maintain regulation. The gain remains in 3/2× until the next I²C write, which prompts re-evaluation. Delay before transition is configurable (60µs–6ms) via VF Monitor Delay Register (0x60).
What external components are required for basic LM2756TMX/NOPB operation?
Four 1µF ceramic flying capacitors (C1+, C1−, C2+, C2−), one 1µF input capacitor (CIN), one 1µF output capacitor (COUT), and one RSET resistor from ISET to GND. RSET value determines full-scale current: e.g., 11.8kΩ yields ~20mA per sink. No inductor is needed - the LM2756TMX/NOPB is fully inductorless.
Can the LM2756TMX/NOPB drive LEDs with different forward voltages in the same group?
No - all LEDs in a group (A, B, or C) share the same VOUT rail and current reference. Mismatched VF causes unequal current distribution and brightness variation. For mixed-VF LEDs, use separate groups or external current-setting resistors. Group A's 0.4% matching assumes identical VF and thermal conditions across its sinks.
What is the function of the HWEN pin on the LM2756TMX/NOPB?
The HWEN pin provides hardware-level reset and enable control for the LM2756TMX/NOPB. When pulled high (≥1.075V), the device operates normally; when pulled low (≤0.58V), all internal registers reset to default states and LED sinks shut down with true isolation. This allows system-level power sequencing without I²C communication.
