Product details
Overview
LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a high-efficiency, six-channel white LED backlight driver IC with integrated 44-V boost converter, adaptive output voltage control, and programmable Phase-Shift PWM dimming. It delivers up to 210 mA per channel (±400 mA total), supports 2.7–22 V input, and targets notebook LCD backlight systems requiring precise luminance control and thermal safety.
For engineers reviewing the LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB datasheet, LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB pinout, LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB application, or LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed I²C/PWM dual-brightness control architecture, real-world efficiency curves at 9 V/12 V, and two documented alternative variants within the LP855x family.
Technical Context
The LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB implements an adaptive boost converter with internal 156–1250 kHz switching frequency selection (via BOOST_FREQ bits or RFSET resistor) and real-time feedback-based VOUT regulation-minimizing power loss by dynamically adjusting boost voltage to match LED string forward voltage. Its six current-sink outputs support independent 8-bit current programming (via RISET or EEPROM) and 10–13-bit PWM resolution (dependent on PLL clock and dithering mode).
It integrates a 5–40 MHz PLL synchronized to external VSYNC (58–55 kHz range) for flicker-free display alignment, plus thermal de-rating, open/short LED fault detection, and undervoltage lockout (configurable thresholds: 2.7 V, 5.4 V, or 8.1 V). Internal EEPROM stores configuration for PWM frequency, phase-shift enable, temperature trip points, and brightness transition slope.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 22 V - supports single- to 5-cell Li-ion batteries without external regulators. |
| Boost Output Voltage | Up to 40 V - sufficient for 10+ white LEDs in series per string. |
| LED Channel Current | Programmable up to 210 mA per channel - set via RISET resistor or EEPROM; matching ±0.5% typical ensures uniform panel brightness. |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1, A2, E4 | GND_SW / GND_L | Dedicated switch and LED ground pins - separate return paths minimize noise coupling between power and signal domains. |
| B1, B2 | SW | High-side boost switch node - connects to external inductor and flyback diode; rated for 44 V max and 2.5 A peak current. |
| A3 | EN | Active-high enable - powers up full functionality only when asserted; draws <1 µA in standby. |
| A4 | PWM | Analog brightness control input - accepts 0.1–25 kHz PWM signal; internally measured for duty cycle with 13-bit precision. |
| A5 | FB | Boost feedback input - monitors output voltage to dynamically adjust switching duty cycle and maintain minimal required VOUT. |
| B3 | ISET | Current-set reference - connects to RISET resistor (e.g., 16 kΩ for 23 mA); floating if EEPROM current setting is used. |
| B4 | FSET | PWM frequency-set reference - connects to RFSET resistor to select base PWM frequency; floating if configured via EEPROM. |
| C1 | VIN | Main power input - accepts 2.7–22 V; includes undervoltage lockout with three configurable thresholds. |
| C3 | FAULT | Open-drain fault indicator - asserts low on LED open/short, overtemperature, or boost overcurrent; requires external pull-up. |
| C4 | VDDIO | Digital I/O supply - powers I²C interface and PWM input; accepts 1.65–5 V, enabling direct connection to 1.8 V or 3.3 V MCUs. |
| C5, D5, E5, E3, E2, E1 | OUT1–OUT6 | Constant-current LED sinks - each delivers up to 210 mA; saturation voltage ≤290 mV at 30 mA ensures low conduction loss. |
| D1 | VLDO | Internal LDO output - provides regulated 5 V (±0.5 V) for external circuitry; supports 5 mA load. |
| D2 | VSYNC | Display synchronization input - locks internal PLL to video frame rate (58–55 kHz); eliminates backlight/display timing mismatch. |
| D3, D4 | SCLK, SDA | I²C bus interface - supports standard-mode (400 kHz) communication for register read/write and EEPROM configuration. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Adaptive Boost Voltage Control | Real-time FB monitoring adjusts VOUT to just exceed LED string Vf - reduces power loss by up to 25% vs fixed-output boost. |
| Phase-Shift PWM Dimming | Staggered turn-on of OUT1–OUT6 channels lowers peak inductor current - enables use of smaller 10 µF COUT and eliminates audible coil whine. |
| Configurable Thermal Management | Programmable temperature trip point (via EEPROM) triggers brightness reduction before shutdown - maintains display usability during thermal stress. |
| VSYNC-Synchronized PLL | Locks PWM output to display refresh rate using internal 13-bit counter - prevents rolling bars and flicker in motion video. |
| EEPROM-Based Configuration Storage | Persists 8+ settings (PWM freq, current, dither, slope) across power cycles - eliminates need for host MCU reinitialization at boot. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED backlight driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LP8552TLE-E05/NOPB | Default EEPROM config sets lower LED current (23 mA vs 210 mA max), fixed 625 kHz switching, no VSYNC sync enable. | Targeted at cost-sensitive notebooks with fixed brightness profiles and no video sync requirement. | Select E05 for simpler designs where dynamic thermal management and VSYNC alignment are unnecessary. |
| LP8552TLE-E04/NOPB | EEPROM config disables dithering and phase-shift PWM; uses 312 kHz boost frequency and 8-bit PWM resolution only. | Optimized for basic backlight control in embedded displays with static content and minimal EMI concerns. | Choose E04 when design prioritizes lowest quiescent current (<3 mA) over advanced dimming smoothness or noise reduction. |
Compared with LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB, the E05 variant trades programmable thermal response and VSYNC sync for reduced configuration overhead, while the E04 variant sacrifices dithering and phase-shift capability to minimize system-level tuning effort-making E06 the only variant supporting full flicker-free video playback with adaptive efficiency optimization.

FAQ
What is the maximum LED string voltage supported by LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB?
The LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB supports a maximum boost output voltage of 40 V, verified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table (Section 7.1). This allows driving up to 10–12 white LEDs in series per channel (assuming typical 3.2–3.6 V forward voltage), making it suitable for medium-sized notebook and panel displays. The adaptive FB loop ensures VOUT never exceeds what is strictly required for the connected LED string.
Does LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB require external resistors for basic operation?
Yes - LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB requires at minimum RISET (to set LED current) and RFSET (to configure PWM frequency) unless all parameters are pre-programmed into EEPROM. The datasheet specifies 16 kΩ for RISET to achieve 23 mA per channel, and RFSET values scale inversely with desired frequency (e.g., ~100 kΩ for 156 kHz). These resistors provide hardware-level fallback if EEPROM fails or is unconfigured.
How does the VSYNC synchronization function in LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB?
The LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB uses an internal PLL locked to the VSYNC signal (58–55 kHz range) to generate a jitter-free PWM clock aligned precisely with display frame updates. As described in Section 8.3.1, the 13-bit PLL counter adjusts division ratio dynamically, and built-in logic maintains stable output even during brief VSYNC dropouts - eliminating visual artifacts like rolling bars or brightness instability during video playback.
What fault conditions trigger the FAULT pin on LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB?
The FAULT pin on LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB asserts low for five distinct conditions: open-circuit or short-circuit on any LED output (OUT1–OUT6), junction temperature exceeding 150°C (thermal shutdown), boost switch overcurrent (>2.5 A), input voltage falling below configured UVLO threshold, or boost output overvoltage (>VBOOST + 1.6 V). Each condition is latched and readable via I²C register 0x1E.
Can LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB operate without I²C communication?
Yes - LP8552TLE-E06/NOPB supports fully autonomous operation using factory-programmed EEPROM settings and analog PWM input. All critical functions - including current setting, PWM frequency, phase-shift enable, and thermal thresholds - are stored in nonvolatile memory. I²C is optional for runtime reconfiguration or diagnostics; the device powers up and drives LEDs immediately upon EN assertion with no host intervention required.
