Description
The PAM2846 is a high-efficiency boost type LED
driver. It is designed for large LCD panel that
employs an array of LEDs as back light source.
The PAM2846 employs a current-mode step-up
converter that drives six parallel strings of LEDs
connected in multiple series. This built-in string-
current-control circuit achieves ±1% typical
current matching between strings, which ensures
even brightness for all LEDs. The device is able to
adapt to different numbers of LEDs in each string
or different forward voltage for different types of
LEDs and keep the string current constant.
Separate feedback loops limit the output voltage if
one or more LEDs open or short. The limit voltage
of over voltage protection is adjustable by
changing the feedback resistor ratio. The
PAM2846 has features cycle-by-cycle current
limit to provide consistent operation and soft-start
capability. A thermal-shutdown circuit provides
another level of protection.
The PAM2846 has a wide +4.8V to +28V input-
voltage range and provides adjustable full-scale
LED current. The switching frequency of this
device can be selected among 500kHz, 1MHz and
1.6MHz according to the application
requirements.
