DESCRIPTION
The LDS8724 is a fixed frequency current mode
boost converter with internal synchronous rectifier
and cycle-by-cycle switch current limit specifically
designed to drive matrix of LEDs in respect with the
Table 1. Operation at 1 MHz allows use of small
value low profile inductor (10 – 33 µH) and 1 µF 50 V
ceramic capacitor.
The use of integrated synchronous rectifier makes
the efficiency dependent on only inductor DC
TYPICAL APPLICATION CIRCUIT
resistance. Under-voltage protection disables the part
when VIN voltage reaches 2.0 V
The LDS8724 has thermal shutdown set at 150 0C.
Above this value , the boost converter stops
switching. The part resumes normal operations when
temperature drops below 130 0C.
The over-current protection provides cycle-by-cycle
current limit.
The internal output over-voltage protection prevents
damage in the case of a faulty LED disconnect.
The PWM control ensures brightness adjustment with
a frequency from 100 Hz up to 30 KHz.
The EN/PWM logic input functions as a chip enable
and LED current PWM contol pin.
The device is available in 8-pin TDFN 2 x 3 mm
package with a max height of 0.8 mm.
