1.5MHz, 30A High-Efficiency, LED Driver with Rapid LED Current Pulsing
General Description
The MAX16818 pulse-width modulation (PWM) LED driver controller provides high-output-current capability in a pact package with a minimum number of external ponents. The MAX16818 is suitable for use in synchronous and nonsynchronous step-down (buck) topologies, as well as in boost, buck-boost, SEPIC, and Cuk LED drivers. The MAX16818 is the first LED driver controller that enables Maxim’s technology for fast LED current transients of up to 20A/µs and 30kHz dimming frequency.
This device utilizes average-current-mode control that enables optimal use of MOSFETs...
