Drives High Voltage LED strings (38V) Up to 87% Efficiency Low Quiescent Ground Current 0.6mA Adjustable Output Current 1MHz Fixed Frequency Low noise Operation Soft start “in-rush” current limiting Shutdown current less than 1μA Open LED Overvoltage Protection Automatic Shutdown at 1.9V (UVLO) Thermal overload protection Thin SOT23 5-Lead (1mm max height) DESCRIPTION
Operation at a fixed switching frequency of 1MHz allows the device to be used with small value external ceramic capacitors and inductor. LEDs connected in series are driven with a regulated current set by the external resistor R1. LED currents up to 40mA can be supported over a wide range of input supply voltages up 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 input pin allows the device to be placed in power-down mode with “zero” quiescent current. In a...
