Product details
Overview
LP5811CYBHR from Texas Instruments is a synchronous boost 4-channel RGBW LED driver with autonomous animation engine, designed for battery-powered portable electronics. It operates from 0.5V to 5.5V input, delivers 3V–5.5V regulated output via integrated 140mΩ/60mΩ MOSFETs, supports 0.1–51mA per channel with ±5% device-to-device and channel-to-channel current accuracy, and enables audible-noise-free 24kHz PWM dimming - ideal for earbud status lighting and smartwatch indicators.
For engineers reviewing the LP5811CYBHR datasheet, LP5811CYBHR pinout, LP5811CYBHR application, or LP5811CYBHR equivalent, this page provides verified technical context on its boost converter operation, autonomous animation control, I²C-addressable variants, ultra-low 0.1μA shutdown current, and DSBGA-12 package integration for space-constrained wearable designs.
Technical Context
The LP5811CYBHR integrates a quasi-constant-frequency synchronous boost converter (1MHz at VIN > 1.5V, down to 0.5MHz at VIN < 1V) with valley-current limiting (1.6A), pass-through mode when VIN > VOUT, and true input-output disconnection during shutdown. Its digital core includes an autonomous animation engine synchronized across multiple devices via 6MHz internal clock and SYNC pin.
It combines dual-dimming architecture: 8-bit analog dot-current (DC) control per channel with global 1-bit maximum-current (MC) selection (25.5mA/51mA), plus individual 8-bit PWM dimming with linear/exponential curve options up to 24kHz - all managed through a 1MHz max I²C interface supporting four address variants (including LP5811CYBHR's fixed A[4:3] = 10).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Range | 0.5V–5.5V operating; 1.8V min for startup - enables direct single-cell Li-ion or coin-cell operation without pre-regulation. |
| VOUT Setting | 3.0V–5.5V in 0.1V steps - matches forward voltage of RGBW LEDs across varying color bins and temperature. |
| LED Current Range | 0.1–51mA per channel (256-step resolution); ±5% device/channel error - ensures uniform brightness in multi-LED arrays. |
| Headroom Voltage | 110mV typ. at 25.5mA; 210mV typ. at 51mA - minimizes power loss and thermal rise in low-VF white/amber LEDs. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.1μA typ. - preserves battery life in always-on wearables during extended idle periods. |
| I²C Address | Fixed A[4:3] = 10 (binary) - allows up to four LP5811 variants (AY/BY/CY/DY) on same bus without address conflict. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C (LED driver), 155°C (boost), 15°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overloads in sealed enclosures. |
Pinout & Package
LP5811CYBHR uses a 12-pin DSBGA (YBH) package measuring 1.84mm × 1.43mm with 0.4mm pitch, optimized for ultra-compact portable PCBs. Pin functions are validated per TI SNVSCC4C Rev FEBRUARY 2025 datasheet Figure 5-1 and Table 5-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN | Enable input | Active-high control of boost converter; <0.42V disables boost and disconnects input from output. |
| VIN | Input power supply | Accepts 0.5–5.5V; requires 10μF ceramic capacitor close to pin for stability and EMI reduction. |
| SW | Boost switch node | Connects to inductor; carries high di/dt switching current - demands tight layout and ground plane coupling. |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for boost, LED sinks, and logic - must be low-impedance solid plane for noise immunity. |
| VOUT | Boost output | Regulated 3–5.5V supply; powers LED channels and external loads; requires 22μF bulk capacitance. |
| OUT0–OUT3 | Constant-current LED sinks | Four independent 0.1–51mA sinks with open/short detection; floating if unused. |
| SCL/SDA | I²C interface | 1MHz max operation; supports standard/fast/fast-mode plus; level-shift tolerant (1.8V/3.3V/5V logic). |
| SYNC | Multi-device synchronization | Drives or receives 6MHz sync signal to align PWM phases across multiple LP5811 units for flicker-free effects. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Autonomous animation engine | On-chip sequencer executes preloaded lighting patterns without MCU intervention - reduces host processor load in resource-constrained wearables. |
| Integrated de-ghosting | Hardware-level cross-talk suppression between adjacent LED channels - eliminates false illumination during fast PWM transitions. |
| True input-output disconnection | Internal switches fully isolate VIN from VOUT in shutdown - prevents backfeed and leakage into depleted batteries. |
| Ultra-low headroom voltage | 110mV at 25.5mA enables use with low-VF red/amber LEDs while maintaining regulation margin at end-of-life battery voltage. |
| Dual dimming architecture | Simultaneous 8-bit analog (DC) + 8-bit PWM control per channel - achieves >16-bit effective dimming resolution with smooth human-eye response. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LP5811ADRRR | Same silicon, WSON-12 package (3mm × 3mm); identical electrical specs and register map. | Requires larger PCB area but offers better thermal dissipation (RθJA = 47.5°C/W vs 92.1°C/W) and reworkability. | Select LP5811ADRRR for industrial HMI or higher-ambient-temperature applications where thermal headroom > PCB size. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required to start up the LP5811CYBHR?
The LP5811CYBHR requires a minimum of 1.8V on VIN to initiate boost converter startup. Once operational, it sustains regulation down to 0.5V input - enabling use with partially discharged single-cell Li-ion or alkaline batteries. Startup occurs only when EN is high and VIN exceeds the 1.8V UVLO rising threshold; below 0.4V, the device enters full shutdown.
How does the LP5811CYBHR achieve audible-noise-free PWM dimming?
The LP5811CYBHR supports PWM frequencies up to 24kHz in its highest setting (pwm_fre = 0), which exceeds the human hearing range (typically <20kHz). This eliminates coil whine and LED buzz in sensitive audio-adjacent applications like earbuds and VR headsets. The 8-bit resolution ensures smooth brightness transitions without visible stepping.
Can multiple LP5811CYBHR devices be synchronized for coordinated lighting effects?
Yes - the LP5811CYBHR includes a dedicated SYNC pin and generates a precise 6MHz internal clock. When configured as master, it drives SYNC to slave devices; as slave, it locks to incoming SYNC. This enables pixel-perfect timing alignment across multiple LP5811CYBHR units for seamless multi-device animations without MCU coordination.
What protection features are integrated into the LP5811CYBHR?
The LP5811CYBHR integrates thermal shutdown (150°C for LED driver, 155°C for boost), output over-voltage protection (5.5–5.9V trip), LED open/short detection per channel, and true input-output disconnection during shutdown. These features prevent damage from overtemperature, overvoltage, wiring faults, and battery reverse connection in field-deployed devices.
Is the LP5811CYBHR compatible with 1.8V I²C systems?
Yes - the SCL, SDA, and SYNC pins accept 1.8V logic levels (VIH_LOGIC ≥ 1.4V, VIL_LOGIC ≤ 0.4V), and the device operates with 1.8V, 3.3V, or 5V-compatible control signals. Its I²C interface supports standard (100kHz), fast (400kHz), and fast-mode plus (1MHz) speeds, ensuring interoperability with modern low-voltage microcontrollers.
