Description
■ Typical efficiency: 82%
The STOD03B is a dual DC-DC converter for
AMOLED display panels. It integrates a step-up
and an inverting DC-DC converter making it
particularly suitable for battery operated products,
in which the major concern is the overall system
efficiency. It works in pulse skipping mode during
low load conditions and PWM-MODE at 1.5 MHz
frequency for medium/high load conditions. The
high frequency allows the value and size of
external components to be reduced. The 4.6 V
output is provided by an LDO in cascade with the
step-up converter. This allows a noise and ripple
free positive output for the AMOLED panel to
provide stable picture quality. The Enable pin
allows the device to be turned off, therefore
reducing the current consumption to less than
1 µA. The negative output voltage can be
■ Pulse skipping mode in light load condition
■ 1.5 MHz PWM mode control switching
frequency
■ Enable pin for shutdown mode
■ Low quiescent current in shutdown mode
■ Soft-start with inrush current protection
■ Overtemperature protection
■ Temperature range: -40 °C to 85 °C
■ True-shutdown mode
■ Package DFN (3 x 3) 12 leads 0.6 mm height
Applications
■ Active matrix AMOLED power supply in
portable devices
programmed by an MCU through a dedicated pin
which implements single-wire protocol. Soft-start
with controlled inrush current limit and thermal
shutdown are integrated functions of the device.
■ Cellular phones
■ Camcorders and digital still cameras
■ Multimedia players
