Description
The LED7706 consists of a high efficiency
monolithic boost converter and six controlled
current generators (rows) specifically designed to
supply LED arrays used in the backlighting of
LCD panels. The device can manage an output
voltage up to 36 V (i.e. 10 white LEDs per row).
The generators can be externally programmed to
sink up to 30 mA and can be dimmed via a PWM
signal (1 % dimming duty-cycle at 20 kHz can be
managed). The device allows to detect and
manage the open and shorted LED faults and to
let unused rows floating. Basic protections
(Output Over-Voltage, internal MOSFET
Over-Current and Thermal Shutdown) are
provided.
