R1218N041A

R1218x SERIES Step-up DC/DC converter for White LED Backlight NO.EA-166-170906 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 i...
