GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AIC1841 and AIC1842 provide 4 and 6 LED current source outputs with regulated constant current for uniform intensity. The AIC1841/2 is the low noise, constant frequency charge pump DC/DC converter that uses 1.5X conversion to increase efficiency in white LED applications. The devices can be used to produce current levels up to 20mA for each output from a 2.7V to 5.5V input. Low external parts counts (two 1 μ F flying capacitors and two small bypass capacitors at VIN, and OUT) make the AIC1841/2 ideal for small, battery-powered applications.
EN/SET interface is used to enable, disable and set the LED current for a 32 level logic scale LED brightness control. Built-in current limiting, with thermal shutdown provide protection to the AIC1841/2 against fault conditions. Automatic softstart circuitry prevents excessive inrush current during start-up. 1MHz high switching frequency is enable to use t...
