Number
Name
Function
1
GATE
Output gate driver pin for external P-channel FET control.
2
VSENSE
Connect this pin to the negative sense side of the current sense resistor RSC. The threshold
voltage is measured as VIN – VSENSE . There is also a fixed current sink to allow for trip
threshold adjustment.
3
VIN
Input power to the A8521 as well as the positive input used for current sense resistor.
4
¯F¯¯A¯¯¯U¯¯L¯¯T¯
Indicates a fault condition. Connect a 100 kΩ resistor between this pin and the required logic
level voltage. The pin is an open drain type configuration that will be pulled low when a fault
occurs.
5
COMP
Output of the error amplifier and compensation node. Connect a series RZ-CZ network from
this pin to ground for control loop compensation.
6
APWM
Analog trimming option for dimming. Applying a digital PWM signal to this pin adjusts the
internal ISET current.
7
PWM/EN
PWM dimming pin, used to control the LED intensity by using pulse width modulation. Also
used to enable the A8521.
8
FSET/SYNC
Frequency/synchronization pin. A resistor RFSET from this pin to ground sets the switching
frequency. This pin can also be used to synchronize two or more A8521s in the system. The
maximum synchronization frequency is 2.3 MHz.
9
ISET
Connect the RISET resistor between this pin and ground to set the 100% LED current.
10
AGND
LED signal ground.
11,12,13,14
LEDx
Connect the cathodes of the LED strings to these pins.
15
VDD
Output of internal LDO; connect a 0.1 μF decoupling capacitor between this pin and ground.
16,17.18
PGND
Power ground for internal DMOS device.
19
OVP
Overvoltage Condition (OVP) sense; connect the ROVP resistor from VOUT to this pin to
adjust the overvoltage protection.
20
SW
The drain of the internal DMOS switch of the boost converter.
–PAD
Exposed pad of the package providing enhanced thermal dissipation. This pad must be
connected to the ground plane(s) of the PCB with at least 8 vias, directly in the pad.
Thermal Characteristics may require derating at maximum conditions, see application information
