General Description
The HV892 liquid lens driver is controlled via an I

C interface, is
capable of driving capacitive loads of up to 200pF, and is compatible
with 40V

to 60V
RMS
lenses.
A single byte (AMP) written to the HV892 controls the operation of
the driver. Setting AMP = 01h to FFh controls output amplitude in
255 monotonic steps. Setting AMP = 00h causes the HV892 to go
into low power standby mode, consuming less than 1.0µA. When
active, the HV892 draws less than 20mA.
A charge pump boost converter integrated on-chip provides the
high voltage necessary for driving the lens. No external inductors
or diodes are needed. Two ceramic chip capacitors are the only
external components required for a complete lens driver circuit.
An H-bridge output stage provides AC drive to the lens, allowing
the use of a single high voltage boost converter while providing
alternating polarity to the lens. Controlled rising and falling edges
on the drive waveform reduces EMI.
The HV892 is offered in a 10-Lead 4x4mm DFN package.
