AAT3174
High Current, High Efficiency Charge Pump
General Description
Features
ChargePump^™
The AAT3174 is a high output current, high effi-
ciency, low noise, low profile charge pump DC/DC
converter. The device is ideal for multi-functional
LED photo-flash applications where solution cost,
size, and efficiency are critical.
The AAT3174 is capable of driving a regulated out-
put current up to 800mA. Output current levels can
be easily programmed in 16 steps through
AnalogicTech's Simple Serial Control™ (S²Cwire™)
interface controlled by a single microcontroller
GPIO line. This allows smooth transitions and flexi-
ble adjustment of brightness in flash or other light-
ing modes. The maximum output current can also
be set with an external R_SET resistor.
The tri-mode (1X/1.5X/2X) operation of the internal
charge pump offers excellent power efficiency
throughout the output current range for both flash
and movie modes. Combined with a low external
parts count (two 1µF flying capacitors and two
small bypass capacitors at V_IN and OUT), the
AAT3174 is ideally suited for small battery-pow-
ered applications.
The AAT3174 has a thermal management system to
protect the device in the event of a short-circuit con-
dition at the output pin. Built-in soft-start circuitry pre-
vents excessive inrush current during start-up. The
shutdown feature disconnects the load from V_IN and
reduces quiescent current to less than 1µA.
The AAT3174 is available in a Pb-free, thermally-
enhanced 12-pin 3x3mm TDFN package and is spec-
ified over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
