Monolithic Power Systems MP3371
The MP3371 is a synchronous boost converter with eight current channels designed to drive WLED arrays for LCD panels in tablets and notebook backlighting applications. The MP3371 uses peak current control mode and pulse-width modulation (PWM) control to maintain boost converter regulation. The MP3371 employs a standard I2C digital interface to set the operation mode, switching frequency, full-scale current for each channel, sync or nonsync mode, dimming mode and duty, and various protection thresholds.DESCRIPTION
The MP3371 features high efficiency due to lowheadroom voltage for LED regulation and a small on resistance of the switching MOSFET. The synchronous rectifier saves PCB size and total BOM cost. The MP3371 is available in a QFN-24 (4mmx4mm) package.FEATURES
