Product Usage Instructions

Before Use:

1. Verify that the parts/components are not damaged or missing.
2. Check that there are no conductive foreign objects on the board.
3. Be careful when performing soldering on the module and/or evaluation board to ensure that solder splash does not occur.
4. Check that there is no condensation or water droplets on the circuit board.

During Use:

5. Be careful to not allow conductive objects to come into contact with the board.
6. Avoid touching the board with bare hands or bringing them too close to the board. Exercise extreme caution when using conductive tools such as tweezers and screwdrivers.
7. Do not use the evaluation board under conditions beyond its rated voltage to prevent defects or potential damages.
8. Wear insulated gloves when handling the board during operation.

After Use:

9. Discharge the electricity stored in the circuits of the evaluation board after use.
10. Protect against electric shocks by wearing insulated gloves when handling.

Note: The BD82A26MUF-M Evaluation Board should only be used in research and development facilities by qualified personnel familiar with all safety and operating procedures.
It is recommended to operate the board in a safe environment with high-voltage signage, safety interlocks, and protective glasses.

High Voltage Safety Precautions

• Read all safety precautions before use
• Please note that this document covers only the BD82A26MUF-M evaluation board (REFLED003-EVK-001) and its functions. For additional information, please refer to the datasheet.
• To ensure safe operation, please carefully read all precautions before handling the evaluation board
• Depending on the configuration of the board and voltages used,
• Potentially lethal voltages may be generated.
• Therefore, please make sure to read and observe all safety precautions described in the red box below.

Before Use

1. Verify that the parts/components are not damaged or missing (i.e. due to the drops).
2. Check that there are no conductive foreign objects on the board.
3. Be careful when performing soldering on the module and/or evaluation board to ensure that solder splash does not occur.
4. Check that there is no condensation or water droplets on the circuit board.
   • During Use
5. Be careful to not allow conductive objects to come into contact with the board.
6. Brief accidental contact or even bringing your hand close to the board may result in discharge and lead to severe injury or death.
   • Therefore, DO NOT touch the board with your bare hands or bring them too close to the board. In addition, as mentioned above please exercise extreme caution when using conductive tools such as tweezers and screwdrivers.
7. If used under conditions beyond its rated voltage, it may cause defects such as short-circuit or, depending on the circumstances, explosion or other permanent damages.
8. Be sure to wear insulated gloves when handling is required during operation.
   • After Use
9. [9] The ROHM Evaluation Board contains the circuits which store the high voltage. Since it stores the charges even after the connected power circuits are cut, please discharge the electricity after using it, and please deal with it after confirming such electric discharge.
10. Protect against electric shocks by wearing insulated gloves when handling.

• This evaluation board is intended for use only in research and development facilities and should by handled only by qualified personnel familiar with all safety and operating procedures.
• We recommend carrying out operation in a safe environment that includes the use of high voltage signage at all entrances, safety interlocks, and protective glasses.

Introduction

• This user’s guide will provide the necessary steps to operate the Evaluation Board of ROHM’s BD82A26MUF-M LED Driver.
• This document includes the external parts, operating procedures and application data.

Description

• This Evaluation Board was developed for ROHM’s LED Driver BD82A26MUF-M. BD82A26MUF-M is a white LED driver for LCD backlight. It has 6 built-in current drivers for LED drive, making it ideal for high brightness LED drive. LED pin max voltage is 50 V, making it suitable for driving large LCD panels. The dimming is controlled by the PWM signal and can be set up to 20,000: 1@100 Hz. It also supports analog dimming and can accommodate even higher brightness ranges by combining with PWM dimming. DC/DC converters can be controlled for boost applications, and the input operating voltage range is 3.0V to 48V.

Application

• Automotive backlight application for CID, cluster panel, car navigation, HUD, or car audio system.

Evaluation board operating condition (default setting)

Table 1. Evaluation board operating condition (default setting)

1. This indicates the voltage near the VCC pin. Be careful of voltage drop by the impedance of power line.
2. Output voltage is determined by the Vf value of the connected LED and the numbers of series. Since this evaluation board has a boost-configuration, output voltage should be higher than input voltage. Also, output voltage should be lower than OVP voltage.

Evaluation board setup

Operating procedure

1. Connect panel or LEDs to evaluation board. (Anode to VOUT-pin. Cathode to LEDx-pin.)
2. Connect power supply to +B-pin and –B-pin of the evaluation board.
3. Connect power supply to EN-pin. It must be less than 7V.
4. Connect pulse generator to PWM-pin. It should be 100Hz to 25kHz and the minimum pulse width must be longer than 0.5μs.
5. Turn on the power supply for +B-pin.
6. Turn on the power supply for EN-pin.
7. Turn on the pulse generator for PWM-pin.

Operation mode settings

The table below describes the settings for SYNC, PD, SHT terminals.

Table 2. Mode settings

SYNC

| GND or OPEN| Fixed Frequency Mode Determined by RRT
VREG50| Spread Spectrum Mode (SSCG) of the Frequency Determined by RRT
Pulse Input| Mode to Synchronize with the Frequency Input to the
PD| GND or OPEN| Phase delay function is disabled
VREG50| Phase delay function is enabled
SHT| GND (OPEN is not allowed)| LED short protection voltage: VLEDn > 4.5V(typ)
DC voltage Input| LED short protection voltage: VLEDn > input voltage x 10

For unused channels, pull up the LED pin (LED1 to LED6) to REG50 with 100kΩ and pull down to GND with 20kΩ.
