Description
The FAN5616 generates a regulated output current from a battery with an input voltage between 2.
7V to 5.
5V.
Switch reconfiguration and fractional switching techniques are utilized to achieve high efficiency over the entire input voltage range.
The adaptive nature of the built-in charge pump eliminates the need for LED preselection (matching) and ensures operation with high efficiency.
The driver's built-in, proprietary, auto-sense circuitry ensures the same high efficiency regardless of the number of LEDs.
When the input voltage is sufficiently high to sustain the LED’s programmed current level, the FAN5616 reconfigures itself to operate as a linear regulator, and the charge pump is turned off.
The FAN5616 supports both digital and PWM LED brightness control methods.
The built-in 2-bit DAC offers a selection of four LED current levels, each level is a percentage of the maximum LED current set by the external RSET resistor.
The FAN5616 includes built-in shutdown, short circuit and thermal protection circuitry.
A built-in smart soft-start circuitry prevents excessive current draw during power on while allowing for an increased PWM frequency for dimming.
Minimal external components are required.
Only two 0.
1µF to 1µF bucket capacitors, a 4.
7µF input capacitor and a 1µF output capacitor are needed for proper operation.
The FAN5616 is available in a 3x3mm 16-lead MLP package.
