3 Description
The LP55231 is a 9-channel LED driver designed to
produce lighting effects for mobile devices. A high-
efficiency charge pump enables LED driving over full
Li-Ion battery voltage range. The device is equipped
with an internal program memory, which allows
operation without processor control.
The LP55231 has an I2C-compatible control interface
with four pin-selectable addresses. The INT pin can
be used to notify processor when a lighting sequence
has ended (interrupt function). Also, the device has a
trigger input interface, which allows synchronization,
for example, between multiple LP55231 devices.
Excellent efficiency is maintained over a wide
operating range by autonomously selecting the best
charge pump gain based on LED forward voltage
requirements. The device is able to automatically
enter power-save mode when LED outputs are not
active, thus lowering idle current consumption down
to 10 µA (typical). Only four small and low-cost
ceramic capacitors are required.
