LM3551 Overview
The LM3551 and LM3552 are fixed frequency, current mode step-up DC/DC converters with two integrated NFETs that can be used for precision LED brightness control. The devices are capable of driving loads up to 1A from a single-cell Li-Ion battery. The LM3551 and LM3552 can drive one or more high current flash LEDs either in a high power Flash mode or a lower power Torch mode using the TORCH/FLASH pin.
