Description
The PAM2701 is a 4-channel charge pump white
LED driver, capable of driving up to 4 LEDs in
parallel. The device operates in either 1x mode or
1.5x fractional mode, and it can switch from 1x
mode to 1.5x mode automatically when the input
voltage decreased. Its internal 4 current sink
regulators ensure both the LED current matching
and the brightness uniformity. The LED current
can be programmed by an external resistor, R
SET
,
connected between the RSET pin and ground.
LED current of up to 30mA are supported by the
input supply voltage over a range of 2.7V to 5.5V,
making the device optimized for Li-Ion battery
applications.
The PAM2701 has a fixed switching frequency of
1MHz, allowing the use of very small value
ceramic capacitors. The enable input pin allows
the device to be set in shutdown mode, and the
current consumption is reduced to less than 1μA.
LED dimming can be done by several methods
including using a DC voltage to set the RSET pin
current, adding a switched resistor in parallel with
R
SET,
or applying a PWM signal to CTRx pin or EN
pin.
