SGM3138
6-Channel Charge Pump White LED
Driver with Low Dropout Current Source
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SGM3138 is a high performance white LED driver. It
integrates current sources and automatic mode selection
charge pump. The part maintains the high efficiency by
utilizing a 1×/1.5× fractional charge pump and low
dropout current sources. The small equivalent 1× mode
open loop resistance and ultra-low dropout voltage of
current source extend the operating time of 1× mode and
optimize the efficiency of Li-ion battery in white LED
applications.
The SGM3138 supports up to 6 white LEDs and
regulates a constant current which the initial value can be
set by an internal resistor. The part implements a 4-bit
DAC for brightness control. Users can easily configure
the LED current from 1.25mA to 20mA by a serial pulse.
The dimming of white LEDs current can be achieved by
applying a pulse signal to the EN/SET pin. There are
totally 16 steps of current could be set by users. The
operating voltage range is 2.7V to 5.5V. Internal soft-start
circuitry effectively reduces the in-rush current while both
start-up and mode transition.
