CAT4103 Datasheet, PDF (1/13 Pages) ON Semiconductor – 3-Channel Constant-Current RGB LED Driver

CAT4103
3-Channel Constant-Current
RGB LED Driver
Description
The CAT4103 is a 3−channel, linear based constant−current LED
driver designed for RGB LED control, requiring no inductor and
provides a low noise operation. LED channel currents up to 175 mA
are programmed independently via separate external resistors. Low
output voltage operation of 0.4 V at 175 mA allows for more power
efficient designs across wider supply voltage range. The three LED
pins are compatible with high voltage up to 25 V supporting
applications with long strings of LEDs.
A high−speed 4−wire 25 MHz serial interface controls each
individual channel using a shift register and latch configuration.
Output data pins allow multiple devices to be cascaded and
programmed via one serial interface with no need for external drivers
or timing considerations. The device also includes a blanking control
pin (BIN) that can be used to disable all channels independently of the
interface.
Thermal shutdown protection is incorporated in the device to
disable the LED outputs whenever the die temperature exceeds 150°C.
The device is available in a 16−lead SOIC package.
