best trade off between the different loss contributions varies from manufacturer to
manufacturer.
A 6.8 µH inductor has been experimentally found as the most suitable for applications
running at a 660 kHz switching frequency.
Table 7.
Capacitors selection
The input and output capacitors should have very low ESR (ceramic capacitors) in order to
minimize the ripple voltage. The boost converter of the LED7706 has been designed to
support ceramic capacitors. The required capacitance depends on the programmed LED
current and the minimum dimming frequency (the boost converter is off when the DIM pin is
low and the output capacitor is slowly discharged). Considering the worst case (i.e. 200 Hz
dimming frequency and 30 mA/channel), two 2.2 µF MLCCs are suitable for almost all
applications. Particular care must be taken when selecting the rated voltage and the
dielectric type of the output capacitors: 50 V rated MLCC may show a significant
capacitance drop when biased, especially in case of Y5V dielectric.
As in most of boost converters, the input capacitor is less critical, although it is necessary to
reduce the switching noise on the supply rail. The input capacitor is also important for the
internal LDO of the LED7706 and must be kept as close as possible to the chip. The rated
voltage of the input capacitor can be chosen according to the supply voltage range; a 10 µF
X5R MLCC is recommended.
Table 8.
Flywheel diode selection
The flywheel diode must be a Schottky type to minimize the losses. This component is
subject to an average current equal to the output one and must sustain a reverse voltage
equal to the maximum output rail voltage. Considering all the channels sinking 30mA each
(i.e. 180 mA output current) and the maximum output voltage (36 V), the STP1L40M
