GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The
ADD5205
is a white LED driver for backlight applications
based on high efficiency, current mode, step-up converter
technology. It is designed with a 0.3 Ω internal switch and 1 MHz
fixed operating frequency. The
ADD5205
contains four regulated
constant current sources for uniform brightness intensity. Each
current source is capable of driving up to 25 mA.
The
ADD5205
has four parallel strings of multiple series connected
LEDs with ±2% current matching. The device provides adjustable
current sources that drive up to 25 mA using an external resistor.
The LED current can be controlled by a PWM signal input on
the PWM pin. An internal circuit translates the PWM signal to
an analog signal with an external capacitor and linearly controls
the LED current.
The
ADD5205
has multiple safety protection features to prevent
any damage during fault conditions. If one or more LEDs are open,
the device disables the faulty current regulator automatically.
The internal soft start prevents inrush current during startup. A
thermal shutdown protection feature prevents thermal damage.
The
ADD5205
is available in a low profile, thermally enhanced
3 mm × 3 mm × 0.75 mm, 12-lead lead frame chip scale package
(LFCSP) and is specified over the temperature range of −25°C
to +85°C.
