AS3691
4 Precision 400mA Current Sources for RGB and Single Color Leds
1 General Description
The AS3691 (AS3691A and AS3691B) features four
high precision current sources for lighting of up to
four LED strings (RGB or single color leds). Each
of the four currents sources can be controlled
independently by PWM inputs. The full scale
current value is set by external resistors.
Very wide output voltage current source
voltage compliance
−
Down to 0.41V
2)
−
Up to 15V
Integrated overtemperature protection
Separate sense pads (Rfb1-Rfb4) for easy and
precise PCB Layout

2 Key Features
4 x up to 0.4A constant current outputs
Programmable with external resistors
4 independent PWM inputs
Absolute current accuracy +/-0.5%
’
Automatic Supply Regulation’ to reduce power
dissipation
1)
1)
15V is sufficient for most applications as the
AS3691 dose not switch off the LED current
completely
