White LED Set-up Converter
EC4501
General Description
Features
The EC4501 is a step‐up DC/DC converter designed for driving up to 5
white LEDs in series from a single cell Lithium Ion battery with
constant current. Because it directly regulates output current, the
EC4501 is ideal for driving light emitting diodes(LEDs)
whose light intensity is proportional to the current passing thro
ugh them, not the voltage across their terminals. A single external re
sistor sets LED current between 2mA and 20mA, which can
then be easily adjusted using either a DC voltage or a pulse
width modulated (PWM) signal up to 100KHz.Its low 104mV
feedback voltage reduces power loss and improves efficiency.
The OV pin monitors the output voltage and turns off the
converter if an over‐voltage condition is present due to an open
circuit condition. The EC4501 is available in SOT23‐6
packages.
