MIC2289C
White LED Driver Internal Schottky
Diode and OVP
General Description
The MIC2289C is a PWM (pulse width modulated), boost-
switching regulator that is optimized for constant-current
white LED driver applications. The MIC2289C features an
internal Schottky diode and three levels of output
overvoltage protection providing a small size and efficient
DC/DC solution that requires only four external
components.
To optimize efficiency, the feedback voltage is set to only
95mV. This reduces power dissipation in the current set
resistor and allows the lowest total output voltage, hence
minimal current draw from the battery.
The MIC2289C implements a constant frequency 1.2MHz
PWM control scheme. The high frequency, PWM operation
saves board space by reducing external component sizes.
The added benefit of the constant frequency PWM scheme
in caparison to variable frequency is much lower noise and
input ripple injected to the input power source.
The MIC2289C clamps the output voltage in case of open
LED conditions, protecting itself and the output capacitor.
The MIC2289C is available with an output OVP option of
34V.
The MIC2289C is available in low profile 6-pin Thin SOT-
23 package. The MIC2289C has a junction temperature
range of –40°C to +125°C.
