43V Asynchronous Boost WLED Driver
RT8511A
General Description
The RT851 1A is a n LED driver IC that ca n support up to 10
WLED in series. It is composed of a current mode boost
converter integrated with a 43V/1.2A power switch running
at a fixed 1MHz frequency and covering a wide VIN ra nge
from 2.7V to 24V.
The white LED current is set with a n external resistor , and
the feedback voltage is regulated to 200mV (typ.). During
operation, the LED current ca n be controlled by the PWM
input signal in which the duty cycle determines the
feedback reference voltage.
For brightness dimming, the RT851 1A is able to maintain
steady control of the LED current. Therefore, no audible
noises are generated on the output cap acitor . The RT851 1A
also has programmable over voltage pin to prevent the
output from exceeding absolute maximum ratings during
open LED conditions. The RT8511A is available in
W DFN-8L 2x2 a nd WDF N-8L 3x3 pa ckages.
