Six-Channel White LED Backlight
Charge Pump with Flash
General Description
The AAT2803 is a dual charge pump designed to sup-
port both white LED backlight and flash applications
for systems operating with lithium-ion/polymer batter-
ies. The backlight charge pump is capable of driving
up to six LEDs at a total of 180mA. The current sinks
may be operated in group or in parallel for driving
higher current LEDs. To maximize power efficiency,
the charge pump operates in 1X, 1.5X, or 2X mode,
where the mode of operation is automatically select-
ed by comparing the forward voltage of each LED
with the input voltage. AnalogicTech's AS
2
Cwire™
(Advanced Simple Serial Control™) serial digital input
is used to enable, disable, and set current for each
LED with a 16-level logarithmic scale plus four low-
current settings down to 50μA for optimized efficien-
cy, with a low housekeeping current of only 50μA.
The flash charge pump is a charge pump doubler
with a regulated output voltage. It is designed to
deliver 120mA of continuous current and up to
300mA of pulsed current. It has an independent
enable pin for improved power savings.
The AAT2803 is equipped with built-in protection,
short-circuit, and auto-disable for load short-circuit
condition. Built-in soft-start circuitry prevents exces-
sive inrush current during start-up. A low-current
shutdown feature disconnects the load from V
IN
and
reduces quiescent current to less than 1μA.
The AAT2803 is available in a Pb-free, space-saving,
thermally enhanced 24-pin 4x4mm QFN package
and is rated over the -40°C to +85°C temperature
range.
