Digitally Adjustable LCD Bias Supplies
The MAX1620 controls the DAC counter with the UP
and DN pins. A rising edge on UP increases V
decrementing the counter and decreasing the DAC
output voltage one step; a rising edge on DN de-
creases
increasing the DAC output voltage one step. Holding
both UP and DN high resets the counter to half-scale.
The counter will not roll over at either the FS or ZERO
code. The control direction of UP and DN reverses for a
negative output, to maintain the same control direction
of the output voltage in absolute magnitude.
The MAX1621 controls the counter to the DAC through
the SMBus interface. The counter is treated as a 5-bit
register and resets on power-up. The setting in the DAC
is guaranteed to remain valid as long as V
than the UVLO threshold (see Note 1 in the Electrical
Characteristics ).
The MAX1620/MAX1621’s open-drain DMOSFET
(LCDON) can be used to disconnect the LCD panel
from the positive bias voltage with an external transistor.
The FET turns off (LCDON = float) if power-OK voltage
(POK) falls below 1V. In the MAX1621, LCDON can also
be controlled by the SMB command. LCDON cannot
switch negative output voltages.
To prevent uncontrolled boosting when the output is
disconnected, the feedback resistors must sense the
boosted voltage rather than the output of the LCDON
switch (Figure 4).
The MAX1620 shuts down when the SHDN pin is low.
The internal reference and biasing circuitry turn off,
and the supply current drops to 9 A. In shutdown,
DOUT = 0V and LCDON floats. UP/DN are ignored to
preserve the DAC state for the MAX1620. Tie unused
logic inputs to AGND for lowest operating current.
The MAX1621 can be shut down using the SMBus
interface (Table 2).
If the MAX1620 is not in shutdown mode, the DAC can
be reset to mid-scale by holding UP and DN high. Mid-
scale is 16 steps from the minimum DAC output and 15
steps from the maximum.

scale at power-up or when V
age lockout threshold of 2.2V (typ).
A single byte of data written over the Intel SMBus con-
trols the MAX1621. Figures 7 and 8 show example
single-byte writes. The MAX1621 contains two 2-bit reg-
isters for storing configuration data, and one register for
the 5-bit DAC data. Tables 1 and 2 describe the data
format for the configuration registers. The MAX1621
responds only to its own address (0101100 binary).
The REGSEL bit addresses the configuration registers.
REGSEL = 0 for the SUS register; REGSEL = 1 for the
OPR register. Each configuration register consists of a
SHDN bit and an LCDON bit. One of the two configura-
tion registers is always active. The state of the SUS pin
determines the active register. The OPR register is active
with SUS = high. The SUS register is active with SUS =
low.
Each byte written to the MAX1621 updates the DAC reg-
ister. DAC data is preserved in shutdown and when tog-
gling between configuration registers. Since there is only
one DAC register, SUS cannot be used to toggle
between two DAC codes.
Status information can be read from the MAX1621 using
the SMBus read-byte protocol. Figure 9 shows an exam-
ple status read and Table 3 describes the status-
information format.
During shutdown (SUS = 1 and OPR-SHDN = 0, or
SUS = 0 and SUS-SHDN = 0), the MAX1621 serial inter-
face remains fully functional and can be used to set
either the OPR-SHDN or SUS-SHDN bits to return the
MAX1621 to its normal operational state.
Separate voltage sources can supply the inductor (L1)
and the IC (V
batteries as well as high-voltage sources because chip
bias (150µA) is provided by a logic supply (3V to 5.5V)
while output power is sourced directly from the battery
to L1. Conversely, L1 and V
from one supply if it remains with V
(3V to 5.5V). If L1 and V
age, D3 and R8 (Figures 4, 5, 6, and 10) can be omit-
ted, and BATT may be connected directly to V
