A8430

www.DataSheet4U.com A8430 White LED Driver Constant Current Step-up Converter The A8430 is a noninverting boost converter that steps-up the input voltage, to provide a programmable constant current output at up to 36 V for driving white LEDs in series. Driving LEDs in series ensures identical currents and uniform brightness. Up to four white LEDs can be driven at 20 mA from a single cell Li-ion or a multicell NiMH power source. Up to seven white LEDs can be driven by increasing the supply voltage up to 10 V. The A8430 incorporates a power switch and feedback sense amplifier to provide a solution with minimum external components. The output current can be set by adjusting a single external sense resistor and can be varied with a voltage or filtered PWM signal when dimming control is required. The high switching frequency of 1.2 MHz allows the use of small inductor and capacitor values. The A8430 is provided in a 5-pin 3 mm x 3 mm MLP package (part number suffix EK), that has a nominal height of only 0.75 mm. The lead-free version (part number suffix EK-T) has 100% lead-free matte tin leadframe plating.
