LM3501TLX-16 Datasheet PDF - National

●General Description

●The LM3501 is a fixed-frequency step-up DC/DC converter that is ideal for driving white LEDs for display backlighting and other lighting functions. With fully intergrated synchronous switching (no external schottky diode required) and a low feedback voltage (515 mV), power efficiency of the LM3501 circuit has been optimized for lighting applications in wireless phones and other portable products (single cell Li-Ion or 3-cell NiMH battery supplies). The LM3501 operates with a fixed 1 MHz switching frequency. When used with ceramic input and output capacitors, the LM3501 provides a small, low-noise, low-cost solution.

●Features

●Synchronous rectification, high efficiency and no external schottky diode required

●Uses small surface mount components

●Can drive 2-5 white LEDs in series (may function with more low VF LEDs)

●2.7V to 7V input range
