Supertex inc. HV830 High Voltage EL Lamp Driver IC Features General Description The Supertex HV830 is a high-voltage driver designed for Processed with HVCMOS technology driving EL lamps of up to 50nF. EL lamps greater than 50nF 2.0 to 9.5V operating supply voltage can be driven for applications not requiring high brightness. DC to AC conversion The input supply voltage range is from 2.0 to 9.5V. The device 200V peak-to-peak typical output voltage uses a single inductor and a minimum number of passive Large output load capability typically 50nF components. The nominal regulated output voltage that is Permits the use of high-resistance elastomeric lamp applied to the EL lamp is 100V. The chip can be enabled components by connecting the resistors on the RSW-Osc and REL-Osc Adjustable output lamp frequency to control lamp pins to the VDD pin, and disabled when connected to GND. color, lamp life, and power consumption Adjustable converter frequency to eliminate harmon- The HV830 has two internal oscillators, a switching MOSFET ics and optimize power consumption and a high-voltage EL lamp driver. The frequency of the Enable/disable function switching converter MOSFET is set by an external resistor Low current draw under no load condition connected between the RSW-Osc and the VDD pins. The EL Very low standby current - 30nA typical lamp driver frequency is set by an external resistor connected between the REL-Osc and the VDD pins. An external induc- tor is connected between the LX and VDD pins. A 0.01F to Applications 0.1F capacitor is connected between the CS pin and the Handheld personal computers GND. The EL lamp is connected between the VA and VB pins. Electronic personal organizers The switching MOSFET charges the external inductor and GPS units discharges it into the CS capacitor. The voltage at CS will Pagers start to increase. Once the voltage at CS reaches a nominal Cellular phones value of 100V, the switching MOSFET is turned OFF to con- Portable instrumentation serve power. The output pins VA and VB are configured as an H-bridge and are switched in opposite states to achieve 200V peak-to-peak across the EL lamp.
