DESCRIPTION
The CAT32 is a DC/DC step up converter that delivers
a regulated output current. Operation at a constant
switching frequency of 1.2MHz allows the device to be
used with very small value external inductor and ceramic
capacitors.
The CAT32 is targeted to drive multiple white light-
emitting diodes (LEDs) connected in series and provides
the necessary regulated current to control the brightness
and the color purity. An external resistor R
SET
controls
the output current level. LED currents of up to 40mA
can be supported over a wide range of input supply
voltages from 2V to 7V, making the device ideal for
battery-powered applications.
A high voltage output stage allows up to 4 White LEDs
to be driven in series. Series drive provides inherent
current matching.
LED dimming can be done by using a DC voltage, a
logic signal, or a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal.
The shutdown input pin allows the device to be placed
in power-down mode with “near zero” quiescent current.
In addition to overcurrent limiting protection, the device
also includes detection circuitry to ensure protection
against open-circuit load fault conditions.
The device is available in a low profile (1mm max height)
6-lead thin SOT23 package and in a TDFN (0.8mm max
height) package.

Function
Switch pin. This is the drain of the internal power
switch. For minimum EMI, minimize the trace
area connected to this pin.
Ground pin. Connect pin 2 to ground.
LED (cathode) connection pin.
RESET pin. A resistor connected from pin 4 to
ground sets the LED current. This pin is also
used to dim the LEDs.
Shutdown pin.
Input supply pin. This pin should be bypassed
with a capacitor to ground. A 4.7µF capacitor
mounted close to the pin is recommended.
