AS3668
4 Channel Breathlight Controller
1 General Description
The AS3668 is a 4-channel LED driver designed to produce lighting
effects for portable devices. A highly efficient charge pump enables
LED driving over full Li-Ion battery voltage range. The device is
equipped with an internal program memory, which allows control of
LED patterns even without processor control. This helps the whole
system to save power and extend for example battery life time in
every mobile application. The AS3668 maintains excellent efficiency
over a wide operating range by automatically selecting the best
charge pump gain based on the LED forward voltage requirements
and the device input voltage.
Furthermore the chip supports an automatic power-save mode which
gets active when LED outputs are not active. The special power-
save mode has a extremely low current consumption below 10µA
(typ.).the AS3668 has an I2C-compatible control interface which
supports two slave address without having a dedicated address
selection pin. For fancy lighting effects synchronized with an audio
signal the device supports special digital filter modes in order to
make music literally visible on the 4 independent configurable
current sources.
The AS3668 is available in a very tiny 12-pin WL-CSP
(1.255x1.680mm) 0.4mm pitch package.
