Step-up DC/DC converter for White LED Backlight






The R1218x Series are PWM control type step-up DC/DC converter ICs with low supply
current. The R1218x is fully dedicated to drive White LED with constant current. Each of these ICs consists
of an NMOS FET, an oscillator, a PWM comparator, a voltage reference unit, an error amplifier, an under voltage
lockout circuit (UVLO), an over-voltage protection circuit (OVP), and so on. The R1218x can drive white LEDs
with high efficiency with low supply current. A diode is built-in the R1218xxx1A, therefore it is possible
to drive up to 4LEDs without an external diode. The R1218xxx2A, an external diode is necessary, however, up
to 6 serial LEDs can be driven with the R1218xxx2A.
Constant current can be set with an external resistance value. Dimming control is possible by PWM signal for
CE pin. Feedback voltage is 0.2V, therefore power loss by current setting resistance is small and efficiency is
good. Maximum duty cycle is internally fixed, Typ. 91%. LEDs can be driven from low voltage. Protection circuits
are the current limit of Lx peak current, the over voltage limit of output, and the under voltage lockout function.
Packages are standard SOT-23-6 and very tiny DFN(PLP)1820-6. |
