General Description
HT7938 is high efficiency boost converter with constant
current output to provide backlight in handheld devices.
Series connection of LEDs provides constant identical
LED currents resulting in uniform brightness. The con-
tinuous LED current is set with FB pin regulated voltage
across an external sense resistor (R_FB) connected from
that pin to ground. The built-in open load protection pre-
vents the damage resulting from an open circuit condi-
tion. Low 200mV feedback voltage minimizes power
loss in the current setting resistor for better efficiency.
HT7938 switches at rates up to 1.2MHz to allow the use
of extremely small inductor and filter capacitor.
