General Description
The AAT3194 is a low noise, constant frequency charge
pump DC/DC converters that use fractional (1.5X) conver-
sion to increase efficiency in white LED applications. The
devices can be used to produce current levels up to 20mA
for each output from a 2.7V to 5.5V input. A low external
parts count (two 1µF flying capacitors and two small
bypass capacitors at IN and OUT) makes these devices
ideally suited for small, battery-powered applications.
AnalogicTech’s Simple Serial Control™ (S
2
Cwire™) inter-
face is used to enable, disable, and set the LED drive
current for 32-level logarithmic scale LED brightness
control. The AAT3194 has a thermal management sys-
tem for protection in the event of a short-circuit condi-
tion on any of the output pins. Built-in soft-start circuitry
prevents excessive inrush current during start-up. A high
switching frequency enables the use of small external
capacitors. A low-current shutdown feature disconnects
the load from V
IN
and reduces quiescent current to less
than 1µA. The AAT3194 is available in a Pb-free 12-pin
TSOPJW package.
