Product details
Overview
LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a high-efficiency, six-channel white LED backlight driver IC with integrated 40-V boost converter, adaptive output voltage control, and programmable PWM + current 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 LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB datasheet, LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB pinout, LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB application, or LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB equivalent, this page provides verified technical context on phase-shift PWM operation, EEPROM-configurable dithering (up to 13-bit effective resolution), VSYNC-synchronized timing, fault detection (open/short LED), and thermal de-rating behavior - all critical for display power architecture validation.
Technical Context
The LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB integrates a high-voltage DC/DC boost converter (156–1250 kHz selectable switching frequency) with real-time adaptive output voltage control that dynamically adjusts VBOOST to the minimum required level across all LED string configurations. Its six independent current sinks support simultaneous PWM and analog current dimming modes, enabling hybrid brightness control for optical efficiency optimization.
It features an internal PLL synchronized to external VSYNC (58–55 kHz range) for flicker-free display alignment, plus proprietary Phase-Shift PWM that staggers channel activation to reduce peak inductor current and audible noise. Internal EEPROM stores configuration for PWM resolution, temperature thresholds, dithering, and slope timing - eliminating need for external configuration components.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED backlight driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LP8555TLX/NOPB | Same pinout, higher 300 mA/channel rating, adds I²C watchdog timer and enhanced ESD protection (±8 kV HBM) | Required for larger panels (>17 inch) or designs needing fail-safe I²C timeout recovery | Select when higher current headroom or automotive-grade robustness is mandatory; not drop-in due to different EEPROM defaults |
| TPS61165DRVR | Single-channel, 40-V boost + current sink; no VSYNC sync, no EEPROM, no thermal de-rating | Suitable only for small displays (<7 inch) with fixed brightness and minimal fault handling | Choose for cost-sensitive, low-complexity applications where multi-channel synchronization and safety features are unnecessary |
Compared with LP8555TLX/NOPB, LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB offers lower system cost and smaller footprint for mid-size notebooks but lacks watchdog functionality; versus TPS61165DRVR, it delivers six-channel coordination, VSYNC lock, and thermal intelligence - essential for premium display quality and reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum LED string voltage supported by LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB?
LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB supports up to 40 V on its boost output, enabling drive of up to 10–12 white LEDs in series per channel depending on forward voltage (typically 3.0–3.6 V per LED). This is confirmed in Section 7.6 of the SNVS693E datasheet under "VMAX Boost maximum output voltage" with a 40-V typical limit and 44-V absolute maximum rating on OUTx pins.
Does LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB require external programming to operate?
No - LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB includes factory-programmed EEPROM with default settings for PWM resolution, current levels, and thermal thresholds. It operates immediately upon power-up using these defaults. External I²C programming is optional and used only to customize behavior beyond factory presets, such as adjusting dithering depth or VSYNC lock parameters.
How does the Phase-Shift PWM feature improve system design in LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB?
Phase-Shift PWM in LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB staggers activation timing across its six LED channels, reducing peak inductor current by up to 35% compared to simultaneous switching. This allows use of smaller boost inductors (e.g., 15 µH instead of 33 µH) and lower-ESR output capacitors, shrinking solution size and eliminating audible switching noise - a key requirement for premium notebook acoustics.
Can LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB synchronize to non-60 Hz display refresh rates?
Yes - LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB supports VSYNC input frequencies from 58 Hz to 55 kHz, covering standard 50/60 Hz notebook panels, high-refresh-rate gaming displays (up to 144 Hz), and industrial video interfaces like LVDS and eDP with custom timing. The internal PLL automatically locks and maintains phase alignment regardless of VSYNC frequency within this range.
What fault conditions trigger the FAULT pin on LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB?
The FAULT pin on LP8552TLX-E06/NOPB asserts low for LED open-circuit or short-circuit on any of the six outputs, boost overcurrent (exceeding 1.4–2.5 A depending on IMAX setting), junction temperature exceeding 150°C (typ.), or input undervoltage (VIN < programmed UVLO threshold). All fault sources are individually readable via I²C status registers.
