Description
This evaluation board is based on the STCF01,
that is a white LED driver optimized for driving two
to four LEDs from a Li-Ion battery input.
It provides up to 300 mA over an input voltage
range of 2.6 V to 5.5 V and it features 16.5 V
output voltage, 1.5 MHz internal power switch,
internal soft start, open load voltage protection
and optimized internal compensation.

Data Brief
Only an inductor, a Schottky diode, two capacitors
and two resistors are required. Besides, a low
output ripple is guaranteed by the current mode
PWM topology and by the use of low E.S.R. SMD
ceramic capacitors
The STCF01 is ideal for camera flash in cellular
phones requiring, small circuit size and very high
efficiency (up to 90%).
