Description
The MAX1574 charge pump drives up to three white
LEDs with regulated constant current for uniform intensity.
By utilizing adaptive 1x/2x charge-pump modes and
very-low-dropout current regulators, it achieves 180mA
output drive capability and high efficiency over the 1-cell
lithium-battery input voltage range. Fixed-frequency
(1MHz) switching allows for tiny external components,
and the regulation scheme is optimized to ensure low EMI
and low input ripple.
The MAX1574 uses an external resistor to set the fullscale
100% LED current. An enable input (EN) is used for
simple on/off control or can be pulsed repeatedly to set
lower LED current in multiple steps down to 5%. Once the
desired brightness is set, the MAX1574 maintains constant
LED current as long as EN is kept high. If EN is kept
low for more than 2ms, the MAX1574 enters shutdown.
The MAX1574 is available in a 10-pin 3mm x 3mm TDFN
package (0.8mm max height).
