SP6686
400mA Buck/Boost Charge Pump LED Driver
Rev. 2.0.0
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SP6686 is a current-regulated charge
pump ideal for powering high brightness LEDs
for camera flash applications.
The charge pump can be set to regulate two
current levels for FLASH and TORCH modes.
The SP6686 automatically switches modes
between step-up and step-down ensuring that
LED current does not depend on the forward
voltage. A low current sense reference voltage
(50mV) allows the use of small 0603 current
sensing resistors.
The SP6686 is designed to operate from a
single cell lithium-ion battery or fixed 3.3V or
5.0V power rails and is available in a RoHS
compliant, “green”/halogen free space saving
10-pin 3mmx3mm DFN package
