Datasheet
AS3642
Ultra Small 500mA Inductive White LED Flash Driver
1 General Description
The AS3642 is an inductive high efficient DCDC step up converter driving a current source. The DCDC step up converter operates at a fixed frequency of 4MHz and includes soft startup to allow easy integration into noise sensitive RF systems. The current source operates in flash/torch/assist (video/autofocus) and indicator mode.
The AS3642 includes flash timer, overvoltage, overtemperature, undervoltage and LED short circuit protection functions.
The AS3642 is able to detect a broken coil. Together with the LED short and open detection the AS3642 can be used to verify the connection to its external components and allowing in-circuit test.
