Description
The PM6600 consists of a high efficiency
monolithic boost converter and six controlled
current generators (ROWs), specifically designed
to supply LEDs arrays used in the backlight of
LCD panels. The device can manage a nominal
output voltage up to 36 V (i.e. 10 White-LEDs per
ROW). The generators can be externally
programmed to sink up to 32 mA and they 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.
Applications
■ Notebook monitors backlight
■ UMPC backlight
