MAX168202MHz High-Brightness LED Drivers with High-Side Current Sense and 5000:1 Dimming | Power Management (PMIC) | 3 | Active | The MAX16819/MAX16820, step-down constant-current high-brightness LED (HB LED) drivers provide a cost-effective solution for architectural and ambient lighting, LED bulbs such as MR16 and other LED illumination applications.The MAX16819/MAX16820 operate from a 4.5V to 28V input voltage range and feature a 5V/10mA on-board regulator. A high-side current-sense resistor adjusts the output current and a dedicated PWM input (DIM) enables a wide range of pulsed dimming.The MAX16819/MAX16820 are well suited for applications requiring a wide input voltage range. The high-side current-sensing and an integrated current-setting circuitry minimize the number of external components while delivering an LED current with ±5% accuracy. A hysteretic control algorithm ensures excellent input-supply rejection and fast response during load transients and PWM dimming. The MAX16819 features a 30% inductor current ripple and the MAX16820 features a 10% current ripple. These devices operate up to 2MHz switching frequency, thus allowing for small component size.The MAX16819/MAX16820 operate over the -40°C to +125°C automotive temperature range and are available in 3mm x 3mm x 0.8mm, 6-pin TDFN packages.ApplicationsArchitectural, Industrial, and Ambient LightingHeads-Up DisplayIndicators and Emergency Lighting |

MAX16821BHigh-Power Synchronous HB LED Drivers with Rapid Current Pulsing | Integrated Circuits (ICs) | 1 | Active | The MAX16821A/MAX16821B/MAX16821C pulse-width-modulation (PWM) LED driver controllers provide high output-current capability in a compact package with a minimum number of external components. The MAX16821A/MAX16821B/MAX16821C are suitable for use in synchronous and nonsynchronous step-down (buck), boost, buck-boost, SEPIC, and Cuk LED drivers. A logic input (MODE) allows the devices to switch between synchronous buck and boost modes of operation. These devices are the first high-power drivers designed specifically to accommodate common-anode HB LEDs.The ICs offer average current-mode control that enable the use of MOSFETs with optimal charge and on-resistance figure of merit, thus minimizing the need for external heatsinking even when delivering up to 30A of LED current.The differential sensing scheme provides accurate control of the LED current. The ICs operate from a 4.75V to 5.5V supply range with the internal regulator disabled (VCCconnected to IN). These devices operate from a 7V to 28V input supply voltage with the internal regulator enabled.The MAX16821A/MAX16821B/MAX16821C feature a clock output with 180° phase delay to control a second out-of-phase LED driver to reduce input and output filter capacitor size and to minimize ripple currents. The wide switching frequency range (125kHz to 1.5MHz) allows the use of small inductors and capacitors.Additional features include programmable overvoltage protection and an output enable function.ApplicationsFront Projectors/Rear Projection TVsLCD TVs and Display BacklightPortable and Pocket Projectors |
MAX168222MHz, High-Brightness LED Drivers with Integrated MOSFET and High-Side Current Sense | LED Driver Evaluation Boards | 7 | Active | The MAX16822A/MAX16822B step-down constant-current high-brightness LED (HB LED) drivers provide a cost-effective design solution for automotive interior/exterior lighting, architectural and ambient lighting, LED bulbs, and other LED illumination applications.The MAX16822A/MAX16822B operate from a +6.5V to +65V input-voltage range and can provide an output current up to 350mA, if operated up to a temperature of +125°C, or up to 500mA, if operated up to a temperature of +105°C. A high-side current-sense resistor adjusts the output current and a dedicated pulse-width modulation (PWM) input enables pulsed LED dimming over a wide range of brightness levels.These devices are well suited for applications requiring a wide input-voltage range. The high-side current sensing and an integrated current-setting circuitry minimize the number of external components while delivering an average output current with ±3% accuracy. A hysteretic control method ensures excellent input supply rejection and fast response during load transients and PWM dimming. The MAX16822A allows 10% current ripple and the MAX16822B allows 30% current ripple. Both devices operate up to a switching frequency of 2MHz, thus allowing the use of small-sized components.The MAX16822A/MAX16822B offer an analog dimming feature that reduces the output current by applying an external DC voltage below the internal 2V threshold voltage from TEMP_I to GND. TEMP_I also sources 25µA to a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor connected between TEMP_I and GND, thus providing an analog thermal-foldback feature that reduces the LED current when the temperature of the LED string exceeds a specified temperature point.An additional feature includes thermal-shutdown protection that turns off the LX driver when the junction temperature exceeds +165°C.The MAX16822A/MAX16822B operate over the -40°C to +125°C automotive temperature range and are available in an 8-pin SO package.ApplicationsArchitectural, Industrial, and Ambient LightingAutomotive RCL, DRL, and Fog LightsHeads-Up DisplaysIndicator and Emergency Lighting |
