The SC445 is a high-efficiency multiple string WLED driver
with an integrated boost converter. It operates over a
wide input range from 4.5V to 27V and can sustain fast
Vin transient up to 5V/µs. It can drive up to forty WLEDs in
4 strings with current up to 150mA per string. The string-
to-string current matching is 2% typical, 3% maximum.
The overall efficiency is greater than 90% due to the low
current sense voltage and a low-impedance internal pow-
er switch. The wide PWM dimming range boasts a ratio of
500: 1.
The 700KHz switching frequency enables the user to op-
timize the external component sizes for efficiency. When
there are fewer than 10 LEDs in each string, users can ad-
just the output voltage protection yielding an allowable
reduction in associated costs, size and voltage ratings of
the output capacitor.
The SC445 also features comprehensive open and short-
circuit LED protection functions. It disables the corre-
sponding strings with LED open or LED short conditions
while maintaining normal operation of other, unaffected
LED strings. This feature allows LCD panels to remain view-
able even under LED failure, wire disconnect, or short-cir-
cuit conditions. The internal thermal shutdown protects
the IC from overheating at abnormal conditions.
The SC445 is available in a thermally-enhanced TSSOP-20
EDP package.
