AAT3170
ChargePump
TM
General Description
The AAT3170 is a high output current, high efficiency,
low noise, low profile charge pump DC/DC converter,
ideal for multi-function LED photo-flash applications
where solution cost, size, and efficiency are critical.
The dual charge pump in the AAT3170 is capable of
delivering 600mA output current. Two current-controlled
paths are available for users of dual flash LEDs that pre-
fer current matching. Each LED channel can be easily
programmed in 32 steps with a single GPIO output
through the AS
2
Cwire™ (Advanced Simple Serial
Control™) interface. This allows smooth transitions and
flexible adjustment of brightness in flash or other light-
ing modes.
The tri-mode (1X/1.5X/2X) operation of the internal
charge pump offers excellent power efficiency for both
flash and movie modes. Combined with a low external
parts count (two 1μF flying capacitors and one small
bypass capacitor at V
IN
and OUT), the AAT3170 is ideally
suited for small, battery-powered applications.
The AAT3170 has a thermal management system to pro-
tect the device in the event of a short-circuit condition at
the output pin. Built-in soft-start circuitry prevents
excessive inrush current during start-up. The shutdown
feature disconnects the load from V
IN
and reduces quies-
cent current to less than 1.0μA.
The AAT3170 is available in the Pb-free, thermally-
enhanced, 12-pin 3x3mm TDFN package.
