MP3386
50V, 6 String White LED Driver
DESCRIPTION
The MP3386 is a step-up converter with 6-
channel current sources designed for driving the
white LED arrays for large size LCD panel
backlighting applications.
The MP3386 uses current mode, fixed frequency
architecture. The switching frequency can be
selected at 1.25MHz or 625kHz. It generates an
output voltage up to 50V from a 4.5V to 25V input
supply. The MP3386 regulates the current in each
LED string to the user programmed value set by an
external current setting resistor.
The MP3386 applies 6 internal current sources in
each LED string terminal to get current balance.
And the current matching achieves 3% regulation
accuracy between strings. Its low 600mV
regulation voltage on LED current sources reduces
power loss and improves efficiency.
The MP3386 features external PWM dimming or
DC input PWM dimming, which allows the flexible
control of the backlighting luminance under wide
range of the ambient brightness, and also avoids
the possibility of PWM dimming audible noise. The
dimming PWM signal can be generated internally,
and the dimming frequency is programmed by an
external setting capacitor.
