Operation at a constant switching frequency of 1MHz allows the device to be used with small value external ceramic capacitors and inductor. The device drives a string of white LEDs connected in series and provides the regulated current to control the LEDs with inherent uniform brightness and matching. An external resistor R1 sets the output current and allows up to 30m A current to be supported over a wide range of input supply voltages from 2.2V to 5.5V, making the device ideal for battery-powered applications. LED dimming can be done by using a DC voltage, a logic signal, or a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal. The shutdown control pin allows the device to be placed in power-down mode with “zero” quiescent current. In addition to thermal protection and overload current limiting, the device also enters a very low power operating mode during “Open LED” fault Quantity Package ..conditions. The device is housed in a low profile per Reel Marking (1mm max height) 5-lead thin SOT23 package for 3000 LW space critical applications. 3000 LX Applications - - - - LCD Backlighting Cellular Phones Handheld Devices Digital Cameras Ordering Information Part Number CAT4137TS CAT4137TD Package TSOT23-5 TSOT23-5 Green Pin Configuration Top View Typical Application Circuit 5-Lead Thin SOT23 1mm max height L: Murata LQH32CN220 D: Central CMDSH2-3 (rated 30V) © 2005 Catalyst Semiconductor, Inc.
