FEATURES
Dual matched regulated LED channels 300mA output current (150mA per channel) 1-wire EZDimTM Programmable LED Current 32 accurate dimming levels Power efficiency up to 90% Fractional pump 1x/1.5x Low noise input ripple Fixed High Frequency Operation 1MHz “Zero” Current Shutdown Mode Soft start and current limiting Short circuit protection Thermal shutdown protection 12-lead TDFN 3mm x 3mm package PRODUCTDESCRIPTION
Low noise operation is achieved by operating at a constant switching frequency of 1MHz which allows the use of small external ceramic capacitors. The EN/DIM logic input provides a 1-wire EZDimTM interface for dimming control of the LEDs. When enabled, pulsing the EN/DIM reduces the LED current on each negative edge in 31 linear steps from 150mA down to zero current. The device is available in the tiny 12-lead thin DFN 3mm x 3mm package with a max height of 0.8mm.
