The LED drive current is generated by an integrated
inductive boost converter with 2 MHz switching
frequency, which allows the use of a very small inductor
and output capacitor. These features make the MIC2870
an ideal solution for high-resolution camera phone LED
flashlight driver applications.
MIC2870 supports two 750 mA white LEDs (WLEDs) or
a single 1.5A WLED configuration. When two WLEDs
are connected, their currents are matched automatically.
MIC2870 operates in either Flash or Torch mode that can
be controlled through either an I2C interface or external
pins. The brightness in the Flash and Torch mode can be
adjusted via two external resistors individually. The
high-speed mode I2C interface provides a simple control
at a clock speed up to 3.4 MHz to support most camera
functions, such as auto-focus, white balance, and image
capture (Flash mode).
The MIC2870 is available in 16-pin, 2 mm x 2 mm TQFN
package with a junction temperature range of –40°C to
+125°C.

Notice: Stresses above those listed under “Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This
is a stress rating only and functional operation of the device at those or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of this specification is not intended. Exposure to maximum rating conditions for
extended periods may affect device reliability.
Note 1:
2:
The maximum allowable power dissipation at any TA (ambient temperature) is PDISS(max) = (TJ(max) – TA)/JA.
Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will result in excessive die temperature and the regulator
will go into thermal shutdown.
Devices are ESD-sensitive. Handling precautions are recommended. Human body model, 1.5 k in series
with 100 pF.

Note 1:
—
The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of ambient temperature, the maximum allowable
junction temperature and the thermal resistance from junction to air (i.e., TA, TJ, JA). Exceeding the
maximum allowable power dissipation will cause the device operating junction temperature to exceed the
maximum +150°C rating. Sustained junction temperatures above +150°C can impact the device reliability.

Pin Number
Pin Name
1
SCL
High-Speed Mode (3.4 MHz) I2C Clock Input.
2
VIN
Supply Input: Connect a low-ESR ceramic capacitor of at least 4.7 µF to PGND. A small
capacitor of 100 nF between VIN and AGND is highly recommended.
3
FEN
Flash-Mode Enable Pin: A low-to-high transition initiates the Flash mode and Flash
mode timer. If FEN is left floating, it is pulled-down internally by a built-in 1 µA current
source when the device is enabled.
4
FI
Flash Inhibit: When FI is pulled high, both LED currents are changed from the Flash
mode current level to the Torch mode current level. If FI is left floating, it is pulled down
internally by a built-in 1 µA current source when the device is enabled. This function is
generally used to reduce instantaneous battery load current by synchronizing with the
handset’s GSM pulse off-time.
5
FRSET
Flash Mode Current-Level Programming: Connect a resistor from FRSET to AGND to
set the maximum current in the Flash mode. For example, a 10 k resistor sets the LED
sink current to its maximum value of 750 mA per channel. FRSET can be grounded if the
default maximum Flash mode current (750 mA) is desired. FRSET, however, cannot be
left floating and the maximum resistance is limited to 80 k.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
4.1
VIN
The input supply provides power to the internal
MOSFETs’ gate drive and controls circuitry for the switch
mode regulator. The operating input voltage range is
from 2.7V to 5.0V. A 4.7 µF low-ESR ceramic input
capacitor should be connected from VIN to AGND, as
close to MIC2870 as possible to ensure a clean supply
voltage for the device. The minimum voltage rating of
10V is recommended for the input capacitor.
4.2
SW
The MIC2870 has internal low-side and synchronous
MOSFET switches. The switch node (SW), between the
internal MOSFET switches, connects directly to one end
of the inductor and provides the current paths during
switching cycles. The other end of the inductor is connected to the input supply voltage. Due to the
high-speed switching on this pin, the switch node should
be routed away from sensitive nodes wherever possible.
4.3
AGND
This is the ground path for the internal biasing and control
circuitry. The current loop of the Analog Ground should be
separated from that of the Power Ground (PGND). AGND
should be connected to PGND at a single point.
4.4
PGND
The Power Ground pin is the ground path for the high
current in the boost switch and the ground path of the
LED current sinks. The current loop for the Power
Ground should be as small as possible and separate
from the AGND loop as applicable.
4.5
OUT
OUT is the boost converter output pin, which is connected to the anode of the LED. A low-ESR ceramic
capacitor of 2.2 µF or larger should be connected from
OUT to PGND, as close as possible to the MIC2870.
The minimum voltage rating of 10V is recommended for
the output capacitor.
4.6
LED1/LED2
These are the current sink pins for the LED(s). The LED
anode is connected to the OUT pin and the LED cathode
is connected to the LED1/LED2 pin(s).
4.7
EN
This is the enable pin of the MIC2870. The MIC2870 is in
Standby mode when the EN pin is asserted high. If this pin
is driven low for more than one second, the IC is shut
down. Alternatively, the I2C interface can be used for
2018 Microchip Technology Inc.
enabling/disabling the IC through the Master
Control/Status register. EN is pulled down by an internal
resistor.
4.8
FEN
FEN is the hardware enable pin for Flash mode. A logic
low-to-high transition on the FEN pin initiates the Flash
mode. If the FEN pin is left floating, it is pulled down internally by a built-in 1 µA current source when the device is
enabled. Flash mode is terminated when FEN is pulled
low or left floating, and the Flash Control register is
cleared.
4.9
TEN
TEN is the hardware enable pin for Torch mode. A logic
low-to-high transition on the TEN pin initiates the Torch
mode. If the TEN pin is left floating, it is pulled down internally by a built-in 1 µA current source when the device is
enabled. Torch mode is terminated when TEN is pulled
low or left floating, and the Torch Control register is
cleared.
4.10
FI
FI is the Flash Inhibit pin. When this pin is high in Flash
mode, both the LED1 and LED2 currents are changed
from the Flash mode current level to the Torch mode current level. When this pin is low, both the LED1 and LED2
currents are changed from the Torch mode current level
back to the original Flash mode current level.
4.11
FRSET
The Flash mode maximum LED current level is programmed through the FRSET pin. A resistor connected
from FRSET to AGND sets the maximum current in the
Flash mode. FRSET can be grounded for the default
Flash mode current of 0.75A. For best current accuracy,
a 0.1% tolerance resistor is recommended. FRSET
cannot be left floating and the maximum resistance is
limited to 80 k.
4.12
TRSET
The Torch mode maximum LED current level is programmed through the TRSET pin. A resistor connected
from the TRSET pin to AGND sets the maximum current
in the Torch mode. TRSET can be grounded for the
default torch mode current of 187.5 mA. For best current
accuracy, a 0.1% tolerance resistor is recommended.
TRSET cannot be left floating and the maximum
resistance is limited to 80 k.
4.13
SCL
I2C
The
clock input pin provides a reference clock for
clocking in the data signal. This is a high-speed mode, up
to 3.4 MHz, input pin and requires a 4.7 k pull-up resistor.

SDA
The I2C data input/output pin allows for data to be
written to and read from the MIC2870. This is a
high-speed mode, up to 3.4 MHz, I2C pin and requires
a 4.7 k pull-up resistor.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
The MIC2870 can drive one or two high-current Flash
WLEDs in either Flash mode or Torch mode. Two WLEDs
can be used to optimize the light output and beam shaping through the optical lens/reflector assembly. In this
case, the two channels, up to 750 mA each, are matched
to within 10% for optimal Flash illumination. When the two
channels are combined to drive a single high-brightness
WLED, the maximum current is 1.5A. If one of the channels is left floating, MIC2870 senses the circuit condition
automatically and allows the other channel to operate.
5.1
Flash Mode
The maximum current level in the Flash mode is
750 mA per channel. This current level can be adjusted
through an external resistor connected to FRSET,
according to the following equation:
EQUATION 5-1:
ADJUSTING FLASH
MODE CURRENT LEVEL
ILED(MAX) =
7500
RFRSET
Alternatively, the default maximum value of 750 mA per
channel is used when FRSET is grounded.
The Flash mode current can be initiated at the preset
FRSET brightness level by asserting FEN high or by
setting the I2C Flash Control register (address: 01h) for
the desired Flash duration, subjected to the Flash
safety time-out setting. The Flash mode current is
terminated when FEN is brought low and the I2C Flash
register is cleared.
The Flash Inhibit (FI) pin can be used to synchronize
the Flash current to a handset GSM pulse event to
prevent excessive battery droop. When the FEN and FI
pins are both high, the Flash mode current is limited to
the Torch mode current setting. The FI pin is also functional when the Flash mode current is enabled through
the I2C Flash register.
Flash mode current can be adjusted to a fraction of the
maximum Flash mode level (either default or set by the
FRSET resistor) by selecting the desired Flash current
level percentage in the Flash Control register
(address: 01h) through the I2C interface. The Flash
current is the product of the maximum Flash current
setting and the percentage selected in the Flash register.
5.2
Torch Mode
The maximum Torch mode current level can be
adjusted through an external resistor connected to the
TRSET pin, according to Equation 5-2:
EQUATION 5-2:
ADJUSTING TORCH
MODE CURRENT LEVEL
ILED(MAX) =
7500
4RTRSET
Alternatively, the default maximum value of 187.5 mA
per channel is used when the TRSET pin is grounded.
The Torch mode operation is activated by asserting
TEN high or by setting the I2C Torch register
(address: 02h) for the desired duration. The Torch
mode current is terminated when TEN is brought low
and the I2C Torch register is cleared.
Like the Flash mode current, the Torch mode current
can be set to a fraction of the maximum Torch mode
level (either default or set by the TRSET resistor) by
selecting the desired torch current level percentage in
the Torch register (address: 02h) through the I2C interface. The torch current is the product of the maximum
torch current setting and the percentage selected in the
Torch register.
5.3
Overvoltage Protection
When the output voltage rises above the overvoltage
protection (OVP) threshold, the MIC2870 is turned off
automatically to avoid permanent damage to the IC.
5.4
Open-Circuit Detection
The Open-Circuit Detector (OCD) is active only when
the LED current regulator is turned on. When the external LED is missing or fails open, the LED1/2 pin voltage
is pulled to near the ground potential by the internal
current sink. If both LEDs are open or missing, the
Open-Circuit Detector would force the boost regulator
and LED current regulator to turn off. The MIC2870 will
try to turn on the boost regulator and LED current
regulator again after a 100 ms time-out. However, in
most practical cases, the boost output voltage would
rise above the OVP threshold when both LED channels
have an open Fault. The OVP function would cause the
MIC2870 to shut down.
The Flash safety time-out feature automatically shuts
down the Flash current if the Flash mode is enabled for
an extended period of time. Refer to the Flash safety
timer setting in Table 5-4.
2018 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS20006078A-page 17
MIC2870
5.5
Short-Circuit Detection
5.7
Like the OCD, the short-circuit detector is active only
when the current regulator is turned on. If either one or
both of the external LEDs fail a short, the short-circuit
detector would force the MIC2870 to turn off. The
MIC2870 will try to turn on the boost regulator and LED
current regulator again after a 100 ms time-out. If the
short condition persists, the whole cycle repeats again.
Prolonged operation in short-circuit condition is not
recommended as it can damage the device.
Figure 5-1 shows the communications required for
write and read operations via the I2C interface. The
black lines show master communications and the red
lines show the slave communications. During a write
operation, the master must drive SDA and SCL for all
stages, except the Acknowledgment (A) shown in red,
which is provided by the slave (MIC2870):
SLAVE
ADDRESS
MIC2870 contains three 8-bit Read/Write registers,
having an address from 00h to 02h for operation control, as shown in Table 5-1. These registers are reset to
their default values in a Power-on Reset (POR) event.
In other words, they hold their previous contents when
the chip is shut down as long as supply voltage is
above 1.5V (typical).

Master Control/Status Register
(00h)
The Master Control/Status register allows the MIC2870
to be enabled by the I2C interface – setting the ON[ ] bit
high has the same effect as asserting the EN pin. The
LED Short bit, LED_SHT[ ], is set if any or both of the
LEDs is shorted to OUT, while the LED Open bit,
LED_OP[ ], is asserted only when both LEDs are open
circuit. The Thermal Shutdown bit, TSD[ ], is set when
the junction temperature of the MIC2870 is higher than
+160°C.
5.9
Flash Control Register (01h)
The read operation begins with a dataless write to
select the register address from which to read. Then, a
restart sequence is issued and then a read command
followed by the data read.
The Flash safety timer and Flash mode current are
configurable via the Flash Control register. Refer to the
Flash time-out duration setting and Flash mode current
setting in Table 5-4 and Table 5-5.
The MIC2870 responds to a slave address of Hex: 0xB4
and 0xB5 for write and read operations, respectively, or
binary ‘1011010x’ (where ‘x’ is the read/write bit).
5.10
The register address is eight bits wide and carries the
address of the MIC2870 register to be operated upon.
Only the lower three bits are used.
DS20006078A-page 18
Torch Control Register (02h)
The Torch mode current is configurable via the Torch
Control register. Refer to the Torch mode current
setting in Table 5-7. The FI[ ] bit has the same function
as the FI pin. When the FI[ ] bit is set, the Flash mode
current is reduced to the Torch mode current setting.

COMPONENT SELECTION
6.1
Inductor
Inductor selection is a balance between efficiency,
stability, cost, size, and rated current. Because the
boost converter is compensated internally, the recommended inductance of L is limited from 1 µH to 2.2 µH
to ensure system stability. It is usually a good balance
between these considerations.
A large inductance value reduces the peak-to-peak
inductor ripple current; hence, the output ripple voltage
and the LED ripple current. This also reduces both the
DC loss and the transition loss at the same inductor’s
DC Resistance (DCR). However, the DCR of an inductor
usually increases with the inductance in the same package size. This is due to the longer windings required for
an increase in inductance. Because the majority of the
input current passes through the inductor, the higher the
DCR, the lower the efficiency is, and more significantly,
at higher load currents. On the other hand, an inductor
with smaller DCR, but the same inductance, usually has
a larger size. The saturation current rating of the
selected inductor must be higher than the maximum
peak inductor current to be encountered and should be
at least 20% to 30% higher than the average inductor
current at maximum output current.
6.2
6.3
Output Capacitor
Output capacitor selection is also a trade-off between
performance, size and cost. Increasing the output
capacitor will lead to an improved transient response,
however, the size and cost will also increase. The output capacitor is preferred in the range of 2.2 µF to
10 µF with ESR from 10 m to 50 m. X5R or X7R
type ceramic capacitors are recommended for better
tolerance over temperature.
The Y5V and Z5U type ceramic capacitors are not recommended due to their wide variation in capacitance
over temperature and increased resistance at high frequencies. The rated voltage of the output capacitor
should be at least 20% higher than the maximum operating output voltage over the operating temperature
range.
6.4
FRSET/TRSET Resistor
Because the FRSET/TRSET resistor is used for setting
the maximum LED current in Flash mode and Torch
mode, respectively, a resistor type with 0.1% tolerance
is recommended for more accurate LED current
setting.
Input Capacitor
A ceramic capacitor of 4.7 µF or larger with low-ESR is
recommended to reduce the input voltage ripple to
ensure a clean supply voltage for the device. The input
capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the
MIC2870 VIN pin, with a short trace for good noise
performance. X5R or X7R type ceramic capacitors are
recommended for better tolerance over temperature.
The Y5V and Z5U type temperature rating ceramic
capacitors are not recommended due to their large
reduction in capacitance over temperature and
increased resistance at high frequencies. These
reduce their ability to filter out high-frequency noise.
The rated voltage of the input capacitor should be at
least 20% higher than the maximum operating input
voltage over the operating temperature range.

POWER DISSIPATION
CONSIDERATION
As can be seen in the diagram, the total thermal
resistance: JA = JC + CA. Hence, this can also be
written as in Equation 7-3:
As with all power devices, the ultimate current rating of
the output is limited by the thermal properties of the
device package and the PCB on which the device is
mounted. There is a simple, Ohm’s law type relationship between thermal resistance, power dissipation
and temperature, which are analogous to an electrical
circuit:
RXY
VX
VY
RYZ
EQUATION 7-3:
TJ = PDISS (JA) + TA
Where:
θJA = Thermal resistance between junction and ambient,
which is typically 80°C/W for 2 x 2 TQFN package
VZ
ISOURCE
VZ
Because, all of the power losses (minus the inductor
losses) in the converter are dissipated within the
MIC2870 package, PDISS can be calculated thus:
EQUATION 7-4:
FIGURE 7-1:

Series Electrical Resistance
CALCULATING PDISS
Linear Mode: PDISS = [POUT – 1 ] – IOUT2 DCR
From this simple circuit, we can calculate VX if we know
the ISOURCE, VZ and the resistor values, RXY and RYZ,
using Equation 7-1:
IOUT 2
Boost Mode: PDISS = [POUT – 1 ] –
DCR
1 – D
EQUATION 7-1:
Duty Cycle in Boost Mode: D =
CALCULATING VX
VX = ISOURCE (RXY + RYZ) + VZ
Thermal circuits can be considered using this same
rule and can be drawn similarly by replacing current
sources with power dissipation (in watts), resistance
with thermal resistance (in °C/W) and voltage sources
with temperature (in °C).

Now replacing the variables in the equation for VX, we
can find the Junction Temperature (TJ) from the power
dissipation, ambient temperature, and the known thermal
resistance of the PCB (CA) and the package (JC).

Where the real board area differs from 1" square, CA
(the PCB thermal resistance) values for various PCB
copper areas can be taken from Figure 7-3. Figure 7-3
is taken from “Designing with Low Dropout Voltage
Regulators” available from the Microchip web site
(www.microchip.com).
Figure 7-3 shows the total area of a round or square pad,
centered on the device. The solid trace represents the
area of a square single-sided, horizontal, solder masked,
copper PC board trace heat sink, measured in square
millimeters. No airflow is assumed. The dashed line
shows the PC board’s trace heat sink, covered in black
oil-based paint, and with 1.3m/sec (250 feet per minute)
airflow. This approaches a “best case” pad heat sink.
Conservative design dictates using the solid trace data,
which indicates that a maximum pad size of 5000 mm2 is
needed. This is a pad that is 71 mm x 71 mm (2.8 inches
per side).

PCB LAYOUT GUIDELINES
PCB layout is critical to achieve reliable, stable and efficient performance. A ground plane is required to control
EMI and minimize the inductance in power and signal
return paths. The following guidelines should be followed
to ensure proper operation of the device:
8.1
IC (Integrated Circuit)
• Place the IC close to the point-of-load (in this
case, the flash LED).
• Use fat traces to route the input and output power
lines.
• Analog ground (AGND) and power ground
(PGND) should be kept separate and connected
at a single location.
• The exposed pad (ePad) on the bottom of the IC
must be connected to the PGND ground plane of
the PCB.
• 4 to 6 thermal vias must be placed on the PCB
pad for exposed pad and connected it to the
PGND ground plane to ensure a good PCB
thermal resistance can be achieved.
8.2
8.4
Output Capacitor
• Use wide and short traces to connect the output
capacitor to the OUT and PGND pins.
• Place several vias to the ground plane close to
the output capacitor ground terminal.
• Use either X5R or X7R temperature rating
ceramic capacitors. Do not use Y5V or Z5U type
ceramic capacitors.
8.5
Flash LED
• Use wide and short trace to connect the LED
anode to the OUT pin.
• Use wide and short trace to connect the LED
cathode to the LED1/LED2 pins.
• Make sure that the LED’s PCB land pattern can
provide sufficient PCB pad heat sink to the flash
LED.
8.6
FRSET/TRSET Resistor
• The FRSET/TRSET resistor should be placed
close to the FRSET/TRSET pin and connected to
AGND.
VIN Decoupling Capacitor
• The VIN decoupling capacitor must be placed
close to the VIN pin of the IC and preferably
connected directly to the pin and not through any
via. The capacitor must be located right at the IC.
• The VIN decoupling capacitor should be
connected to analog ground (AGND).
• The VIN terminal is noise sensitive and the
placement of capacitor is very critical.
8.3
Inductor
• Keep both the inductor connections to the switch
node (SW) and input power line short and wide
enough to handle the switching current. Keep the
areas of the switching current loops small to
minimize the EMI problem.
• Do not route any digital lines underneath or close
to the inductor.
• Keep the switch node (SW) away from the noise
sensitive pins.
• To minimize noise, place a ground plane
underneath the inductor.
