PIN FUNCTIONS
Pin # Name Description
1 EN1
Enable Input. See Table 1 for PWM serial interface usage. EN1 has an internal pull-down of
1.2M.
2 EN2
Enable Input. See Table 1 for PWM serial interface usage. EN2 has an internal pull-down of
1.2M.
3 COMP
Control Loop Compensation Node. COMP is the output of the internal transconductance amplifier.
Connect a series resistor-capacitor network between COMP and GND to compensate the control
loop.
4 SS Soft-Start Capacitor Pin. Doubles as the PWM timer.
5 LED3
Number 3 LED String Current Control Input. Connect the bottom (Cathode) of the Number 3 LED
string to LED3. This string is the flash string.
6 GND Analog Ground. (Connect the Exposed Pad to Pin 6)
7 LED2
Number 2 LED String Current Control Input. Connect the bottom (Cathode) of the Number 2 LED
string to LED2. This string is the backlight string.
8 LED1
Number 1 LED String Current Control Input. Connect the bottom (Cathode) of the Number 1 LED
string to LED1. This string is the backlight string.
9 ISET1
Current Control Input. Connect a resistor between ISET1 and GND to set the backlight LED string
current up to 30mA.
10 ISET2
Current Control Input. Connect a resistor between ISET2 and GND to set the flash LED string
preview current up to 150mA.
11 ISET3
Current Control Input. Connect a resistor between ISET3 and GND to set the flash LED string
current up to 150mA.
12 OUT
Output Voltage Sensing Input. When the OUT pin voltage exceeds the overvoltage threshold, the
MP1529 automatically shuts down to prevent internal damage. Connect OUT to the output of the
step-up converter.
14 SW
Switch Output. SW is the drain of the internal N-Channel MOSFET switch. Connect the power
inductor between SW and the input source, and connect the output rectifier between SW and the
output to form the step-up converter.
16 IN Input Supply Pin. Must be locally bypassed.
13,15 PGND Power Ground.
