RT9300A Datasheet, PDF (1/7 Pages) Richtek Technology Corporation – Tiny Package, Low Dropout Current Source

Preliminary
RT9300A/B
Tiny Package, Low Dropout Current Source
General Description
The RT9300A/B low-dropout bias supply for white LEDs
is a high-performance alternative to the simple ballast
resistors used in conventional white LED designs. The
RT9300A/B uses a internal resistor to set the bias
current for four LEDs, which are matched to 3%. The
RT9300A/B's advantages over ballast resistors include
much lower bias variation with supply voltage variation,
significantly lower dropout voltage, and in some applications,
significantly improved efficiency. The RT9300A/B requires
a 60/45mV dropout at a 20/15mA load on each output to
match the LED brightness.
