Preliminary Datasheet
LP3164
4-Channel Current Source White LED Driver
General Description
The LP3164 is a low-dropout bias supply for white LEDs is
a high-performance alternative to the simple ballast
resistors used in conventional white LED designs. It
supports 4 white LEDs with regulated constant current for
uniform intensity. The LP3164 maintains low dropout
current regulators. The LP3164 requires a 50mV dropout
at a 20mA load on each output to match the LED brightness.
The brightness of LEDs can be tuned through a pulse width
modulated signal at the PWM pin.
The LP3164 is available in a QFN-16 package.
