ADP8860
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The ADP8860 allows the charge pump to operate efficiently
with a minimum of external components. Specifically, the user
must select an input capacitor (C
and two charge pump fly capacitors (C1 and C2). C
1 μF or greater. The value must be high enough to produce a
stable input voltage signal at the minimum input voltage and
maximum output load. A 1 μF capacitor for C
Larger values are permissible, but care must be exercised to
ensure that VOUT charges above 55% (typical) of V
4 ms (typical). See the Short-Circuit Protection Mode section
for more details.
For best practice, it is recommended that the two charge pump
fly capacitors be 1 μF; larger values are not recommended and
smaller values may reduce the ability of the charge pump to
deliver maximum current. For optimal efficiency, the charge
pump fly capacitors should have low equivalent series resistance
(ESR). Low ESR X5R or X7R capacitors are recommended for
all four components. Use voltage ratings of 10 V or greater for
these capacitors.
If one or both ambient light sensor comparator inputs (CMP_IN
and D6/CMP_IN2) are used, a small capacitor (0.1 μF is
recommended) must be connected from the input to ground.
Any color of LED can be used if the Vf (forward voltage) is less
than 4.1 V. However, using lower Vf LEDs reduces the input
power consumption by allowing the charge pump to operate at
lower gain states.
The equivalent circuit model for a charge pump is shown in
Figure 43.
The input voltage is multiplied by the gain (G) and delivered to
the output through an effective resistance (R

This equation is useful for calculating approximate bounds for
the charge pump design.

For optimal noise immunity, place the C
capacitors as close as possible to their respective pins.
These capacitors should share a short ground trace. If the
LEDs are a significant distance from the VOUT pin, another
capacitor on VOUT, placed closer to the LEDs, is advisable.
For optimal efficiency, place the charge pump fly capacitors
as close to the part as possible.
The ADP8860 does not distinguish between power ground
and analog ground. Therefore, both ground pins can be
connected directly together. It is recommended that these
ground pins be connected at the ground for the input and
output capacitors.
If using the LFCSP package, the exposed pad must be
soldered at the board to the GND1 and/or GND2 pin(s).
Unused diode pins (Pin D1 to Pin D7) can be connected to
ground, VOUT, or remain floating. However, the unused
diode current sinks must be disabled by setting them as
independent sinks in Register 0x05 and then disabling
them in Register 0x10. If they are not disabled, the charge
pump efficiency may suffer.
If the CMP_IN phototransistor input is not used, it can be
connected to ground or remain floating.
If the interrupt pin (nINT) is not used, connect it to
ground or leave it floating. Never connect it to a voltage
supply, except through a ≥1 kΩ series resistor.
