1x, 1.5x, 2x High Efficiency Charge Pump
4 White LED Driver Evaluation Board

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The EV0042 is an evaluation board for the
MP1519, a fully automatic driver for powering
four white LEDs, with up to 4V forward voltage,
from a single Li-Ion or three NiMH cells. The
driver performs all of the sensing and control to
run the LEDs at an optimum charge pump ratio
for efficiency without an expensive inductor.
The driver allows PWM operation to support
brightness control.
The tiny 3mm x 3mm QFN16 package and
small external capacitors allow for the most
compact white LED solution available.

QUICK START GUIDE
1. Solder LED1 - LED4 to the board.
2. Attach the positive and negatives terminals of the power supply (2.5V – 5.5V) to the VIN and
GND pins, respectively.
3. The board is set up for automatic startup. Drive EN low to shut down the MP1519.
4. To use burst mode brightness control, drive EN with a PWM signal.
