ADM8846
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADM8846 provides the power required to drive up to six
LEDs, using charge pump technology. The LEDs are used for
backlighting a color LCD display, with up to four LEDs in the
main display and up to two LEDs in the sub display, with
regulated constant current for uniform brightness intensity.
Two digital input control pins, CTRL1 and CTRL2 control the
shutdown operation and the brightness of the main and sub
displays.
To maximize power efficiency, a charge pump that can operate
in either of a 1x, 1.5x or 2x mode is used. The charge pump
automatically switches between 1x/1.5x/2x modes based on the
input voltage, to maintain sufficient drive for the LED anodes at
the highest power efficiency.
Improved brightness matching of the LEDs is achieved by the
use of a feedback pin to sense individual LED current with a
maximum matching accuracy of 1%.

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any
other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.
ESD CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on the
human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features
proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy
electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance
degradation or loss of functionality.
