GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MAX8647/MAX8648 drive up to six white LEDs or two sets of RGB LEDs with regulated constant current for display backlight and fun light applications. By utilizing an inverting charge pump and extremely lowdropout adaptive current regulators, these ICs achieve very high efficiency over the full 1-cell Li+ battery voltage range and even with large LED forward voltage mismatch. The 1MHz fixed-frequency switching allows for tiny external components. The regulation scheme is optimized to ensure low EMI and low input ripple. The MAX8647/MAX8648 include thermal shutdown, openand short-circuit protection. The MAX8647 features an I 2C serial port, while Both devices include a temperature derating function to safely allow bright 24mA full-scale output current setting while automatically reducing current to protect LEDs at high ambient temperatures above +60°C. The MAX8647/MAX8648 are available in a 16-pin, 3mm x 3mm thin QFN package (0.8mm max height). ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦...
