Pin Function
○REG58 (1pin)
The REG58 pin is used in the DC/DC converter driver block to output 5.8V power. The maximum operating current is 15mA.
Using the REG58 pin at a current higher than 15mA can affect the N pin output pulse, causing the IC to malfunction and
leading to heat generation of the IC itself. To avoid this problem, it is recommended to make load setting to the minimum
level.
Please place the ceramic capacitor connected to REG58 pin (2.2μF to 10μF) closest to REG58-GND pin.
○CS (2pin)
The CS pin has the following two functions:
1. DC/DC current mode current feedback function
Current flowing through the inductor is converted into voltage by the current sensing resistor RCS connected to the CS pin
and this voltage is compared with voltage set with the error amplifier to control the DC/DC output voltage.
2. Inductor current limit function
The CS pin also incorporates the over current protection (OCP) function. If the CS pin voltage reaches 0.45V (Typ.) or more,
switching operation will be forcedly stopped.
○N (3pin)
The N pin is used to output power to the external NMOS gate driver for the DC/DC converter in the amplitude range of
approx. 0 to REG58. ON resistances is 4.0Ω(typ.) in sorrce (H side), 3.0Ω(typ.) in sink (L side).
Frequency setting can be made with a resistor connected to the RT pin. For details of frequency setting, refer to the
description of the RT pin.
○GND (4pin)
Ground of the IC.
○OVP (5pin)
The OVP pin is an input pin for over-voltage protection and short circuit protection of DC/DC output voltage. If over-voltage
is detected, the OVP pin will stop the DC/DC converter conducting step-up operation. When the short circuit protection
(SCP) function is activated, the DC/DC converter will stop operation, and then the timer will start counting. When the timer
completes counting the preset period of time, the LED drivers are stopped.
The OVP pin is of the high impedance type and involves no pull-down resistor, resulting in unstable potential in the
open-circuited state. To avoid this problem, be sure to make input voltage setting with the use of a resistive divider or
otherwise.
○STB (6pin)
The STB pin is used to make setting of turning ON and OFF the IC and allowed for use to reset the IC from shutdown.
Note: The IC state is switched (i.e., the IC is switched between ON and OFF state) according to voltages input in the STB
pin. Avoid using the STB pin between two states (0.8 to 2.0V).
When STB signal is set to Low or High, change it from Low to High after REG58 output completely discharges.
○PWM (11pin)
The PWM pin is used to turn ON and OFF LED drivers. Light can be modulated by changing the duty cycle through the
direct input of a PWM light modulation signal. The high and low voltage levels of PWM pin is as listed in the table below:

TSZ22111・15・001 12.Aug.2015 Rev.002
BD93942F Datasheet
○ISET (12pin)
The ISET pin is an output current setting resistor. Output current ILED varies in inverse proportion to resistance.
The relation between output current ILED and the resistance of ISET pin connection resistor RISET is given by the following
equation:
3000
I LED [ mA] V ADIM [V ] (ADIM=0.2V to2.7V)
R ISET [ kΩ]
ADIM input range is from 0V to 35V. And the range which the LED currents change with linearity is from 0.2V to 2.7V.
When it reaches under VISET×0.90V(typ.), the LED current is off to prevent from passing a large current to the LED pin
when the RISET is shorted and the ISET pin is shorted to the GND. And as the ISET pin returns to a normal state, the LED
current returns.
○SSFB (13pin)
The SSFB pin is used to make setting of soft start time and duty for soft start, and DC/DC current mode control error
amplifier. It performs constant current charge of 10uA to the external capacitor connected to SSFB terminal, which enables
soft-start of DC/DC converter.
The SSFB pin detects the voltages of LED pins (1 to 4) and controls inductor current so that the pin voltage of the LED
located in the row with the highest Vf will come to 0.45V(ADIM=2.5V,ISET=50kΩ,ILED=150mA). As a result, the pin
voltages of other LEDs become higher by Vf variation. After completion of soft start, the SSFB pin is put into the
high-impedance state with the PWM signal being in the low state, thus maintaining the SSFB voltage.
Since the LED protection function (OPEN/SHORT detection) works when it turns to the LED feedback mode.
○RT (14pin)
The RT pin is used to connect a DC/DC frequency setting resistor. DC/DC drive frequency is determined by connecting the
RT resistor.
When RT is 100kΩ, Fsw is 150kHz(typ.). However, drive frequency setting should be made in the range of 100 kHz to 800
kHz.
○ADIM (15pin)
ADIM pin is for analog dimming. Output current is proportionality with input voltage. Basically, ADIM pin assumes the
voltage inputted externally using high accuracy of resistive divider and etc., IC internally is in OPEN (High impedance)
condition. Cannot use in an OPEN condition.
If you don't use analog dimming, please connect pull-up resistor to over 5V (for example REG58).
○VCC (16pin)
The VCC pin is used to supply power for the IC in the range of 9 to 35V.
If the VCC pin voltage reaches 7.5V (Typ.) or more, the IC will initiate operation. If it reaches 7.2V (Typ.) or less, the IC will
be shut down.

Note: If a current in excess of the rated current of the inductor applies to the coil, the inductor will cause magnetic
saturation, resulting in efficiency degradation.
Select an inductor with an adequate margin so that peak current will not exceed the rated current of the
inductor.
Note: To reduce power dissipation from and increase efficiency of inductor, select an inductor with low resistance
component (DCR or ACR).
Note: Select capacitor ratings with an adequate margin for output voltage.

Operational Notes
3. Ground Voltage
Ensure that no pins are at a voltage below that of the ground pin at any time, even during transient condition.
5. Thermal Consideration
Should by any chance the power dissipation rating be exceeded the rise in temperature of the chip may result in
deterioration of the properties of the chip. The absolute maximum rating of the Pd stated in this specification is when
the IC is mounted on a 70mm x 70mm x 1.6mm glass epoxy board. In case of exceeding this absolute maximum
rating, increase the board size and copper area to prevent exceeding the Pd rating.
7. Rush Current
When power is first supplied to the IC, it is possible that the internal logic may be unstable and inrush
current may flow instantaneously due to the internal powering sequence and delays, especially if the IC
has more than one power supply. Therefore, give special consideration to power coupling capacitance,
power wiring, width of ground wiring, and routing of connections.

This monolithic IC contains P+ isolation and P substrate layers between adjacent elements in order to keep them
isolated. P-N junctions are formed at the intersection of the P layers with the N layers of other elements, creating a
parasitic diode or transistor. For example (refer to figure below):
When GND > Pin A and GND > Pin B, the P-N junction operates as a parasitic diode.
When GND > Pin B, the P-N junction operates as a parasitic transistor.
Parasitic diodes inevitably occur in the structure of the IC. The operation of parasitic diodes can result in mutual
interference among circuits, operational faults, or physical damage. Therefore, conditions that cause these diodes to
operate, such as applying a voltage lower than the GND voltage to an input pin (and thus to the P substrate) should
be avoided.
When using a ceramic capacitor, determine the dielectric constant considering the change of capacitance with
temperature and the decrease in nominal capacitance due to DC bias and others.

OA equipment, telecommunication equipment, home electronic appliances, amusement equipment, etc.). If you
(Note 1)
intend to use our Products in devices requiring extremely high reliability (such as medical equipment , transport
equipment, traffic equipment, aircraft/spacecraft, nuclear power controllers, fuel controllers, car equipment including car
accessories, safety devices, etc.) and whose malfunction or failure may cause loss of human life, bodily injury or
serious damage to property (“Specific Applications”), please consult with the ROHM sales representative in advance.
Unless otherwise agreed in writing by ROHM in advance, ROHM shall not be in any way responsible or liable for any

2. ROHM designs and manufactures its Products subject to strict quality control system. However, semiconductor
products can fail or malfunction at a certain rate. Please be sure to implement, at your own responsibilities, adequate
safety measures including but not limited to fail-safe design against the physical injury, damage to any property, which
a failure or malfunction of our Products may cause. The following are examples of safety measures:
[a] Installation of protection circuits or other protective devices to improve system safety
[b] Installation of redundant circuits to reduce the impact of single or multiple circuit failure
3. Our Products are designed and manufactured for use under standard conditions and not under any special or
extraordinary environments or conditions, as exemplified below. Accordingly, ROHM shall not be in any way
responsible or liable for any damages, expenses or losses arising from the use of any ROHM’s Products under any
special or extraordinary environments or conditions. If you intend to use our Products under any special or
extraordinary environments or conditions (as exemplified below), your independent verification and confirmation of
product performance, reliability, etc, prior to use, must be necessary:
[a] Use of our Products in any types of liquid, including water, oils, chemicals, and organic solvents
[b] Use of our Products outdoors or in places where the Products are exposed to direct sunlight or dust
[c] Use of our Products in places where the Products are exposed to sea wind or corrosive gases, including Cl2,
H2S, NH3, SO2, and NO2
[d] Use of our Products in places where the Products are exposed to static electricity or electromagnetic waves
[e] Use of our Products in proximity to heat-producing components, plastic cords, or other flammable items
[f] Sealing or coating our Products with resin or other coating materials
[g] Use of our Products without cleaning residue of flux (even if you use no-clean type fluxes, cleaning residue of
flux is recommended); or Washing our Products by using water or water-soluble cleaning agents for cleaning
residue after soldering
[h] Use of the Products in places subject to dew condensation
5. Please verify and confirm characteristics of the final or mounted products in using the Products.
6. In particular, if a transient load (a large amount of load applied in a short period of time, such as pulse. is applied,
confirmation of performance characteristics after on-board mounting is strongly recommended. Avoid applying power
exceeding normal rated power; exceeding the power rating under steady-state loading condition may negatively affect
product performance and reliability.
7. De-rate Power Dissipation (Pd) depending on Ambient temperature (Ta). When used in sealed area, confirm the actual
ambient temperature.
8. Confirm that operation temperature is within the specified range described in the product specification.
9. ROHM shall not be in any way responsible or liable for failure induced under deviant condition from what is defined in
