4 Precision 400mA Current Sources for RGB and Single Color Leds
1 General Description
The AS3691 (AS3691A and AS3691B) features four
high precision current sources for lighting of up to
four LED strings (RGB or single color leds). Each
of the four currents sources can be controlled
independently by PWM inputs. The full scale
current value is set by external resistors.
2 Key Features
ƒ 4 x up to 0.4A constant current outputs
ƒ Programmable with external resistors
ƒ 4 independent PWM inputs
ƒ Absolute current accuracy +/-0.5%
ƒ ’Automatic Supply Regulation’ to reduce power
dissipation1)
1) Patent Pending
4 Application Diagrams
ƒ Very wide output voltage current source
voltage compliance
− Down to 0.41V
− Up to 15V 2)
ƒ Integrated overtemperature protection
ƒ Separate sense pads (Rfb1-Rfb4) for easy and
precise PCB Layout
ƒ Package
− DIE
− QFN24 4x4mm
− eP-TSSOP
2) 15V is sufficient for most applications as the
AS3691 dose not switch off the LED current
completely
3 Applications
ƒ General Lighting
ƒ Backlighting
ƒ RGB Backlighting for LCD TV/Monitors with
White Color Balancing
