MC34844

Freescale Semiconductor Technical Data 10 Channel LED Backlight Driver with Integrated Power Supply Document Number: MC34844 Rev. 10.0, 8/2014 34844 The 34844 is a SMARTMOS high efficiency, LED driver for use in backlighting LCD displays from 10" to 20"+. Operating from supplies of 7.0 to 28 V, the MC34844 is capable of driving up to 160 LEDs in 10 parallel strings. Current in the 10 strings is matched to within 2%, and can be programmed via the I2C/SM Bus interface. The 34844 also includes a Pulse Width Monitor (PWM) generator for LED dimming. The LEDs can be dimmed to one of 256 levels, programmed through the I2C/SM Bus interface. Up to 65,000:1 (256:1 PWM, 256:1 Current DAC) dimming ratio. The integrated boost converter generates the minimum output voltage required to keep all LEDs illuminated with the selected current, providing the highest efficiency possible. The 34844 has an integrated boost self-clock at a default frequency of 600 kHz, but may be programmed via I2C to 1...
