R1218x SERIES
Step-up DC/DC converter for White LED Backlight
NO.EA-166-111123
OUTLINE
The R1218x Series are PWM control type step-up DC/DC converter ICs with low supply current.
The R1218x is fully dedicated to drive White LED with constant current. Each of these ICs consists of an NMOS FET, an oscillator, a PWM comparator, a voltage reference unit, an error amplifier, a current limit circuit, an under voltage lockout circuit (UVLO), an over-voltage protection circuit (OVP).
The R1218x can drive white LEDs with high efficiency with low supply current. A diode is built-in the R1218xxx1A, therefore it is possible to drive up to 4LEDs without an external diode. The R1218xxx2A, an external diode is necessary, however, up to 7 serial LEDs can be driven with the R1218xxx2A.
Constant current can be set with an external resistance value. Dimming control is possible by PWM signal for CE pin. Feedback voltage is 0.2V, therefore power loss by current setting resistor is small and efficiency is good. Maximum duty cycle is internally fixed, Typ. 91% to 92%. LEDs can be driven from low voltage. Protection circuits are the current limit of Lx peak current, the over voltage limit of output, and the under voltage lockout function.
Packages are standard SOT-23-6 and very tiny DFN(PLP)1820-6.

ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
Electronic and mechanical stress momentarily exceeded absolute maximum ratings may cause the permanent damages and may degrade the life time and safety for both device and system using the device in the field.
The functional operation at or over these absolute maximum ratings is not assured.
RECOMMENDED OPERATING CONDITIONS (ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS)
All of electronic equipment should be designed that the mounted semiconductor devices operate within the recommended operating conditions. The semiconductor devices cannot operate normally over the recommended operating conditions, even if when they are used over such conditions by momentary electronic noise or surge. And the semiconductor devices may receive serious damage when they continue to operate over the recommended operating conditions.
