MAX25601A/MAX25601B/ Synchronous Boost and MAX25601C/MAX25601D Synchronous Buck LED Controllers General Description Benefits and Features
The MAX25601A/B/C/D is a synchronous boost control- ● Integration Minimizes BOM for High-Brightness LED ler followed by a synchronous buck LED controller. The Driver, Saving Space and Cost 4.5V to 40V input voltage range of the boost controller is • Wide Input-Voltage Range from 4.5V to 40V ideal for automotive applications, and acts as a pre-boost • Wide Boost-Output Range up to 65V power supply for the second-stage buck LED controller. • Programmable Switching Frequency Optimizes The synchronous boost is a current-mode controller Component Size that can be be paralleled with another device to provide • External MOSFETs Can be Sized for Appropriate higher output power. A SYNCOUT pin provides the clock Current to drive the RT/SYNCIN pin of the other device, enabling • Synchronous Rectification Provides High Efficiency two-phase 180-degree out-of-phase operation. The boost and Fast Transient Response converter can be programmed with a switching frequency • Average Current-Mode Control for Buck Eliminates of 200kHz to 2.2MHz. Spread spectrum is included to Compensation Components reduce EMI. An internal digital soft-start feature is pro- ● Wide Dimming Ratio Allows High Contrast Ratio vided to enable a smooth power up of the boost output. • Analog Dimming and PWM Dimming Protection features like hiccup mode, overvoltage protec- • Analog Voltage-Controlled PWM Dimming tion, and thermal shutdown are provided. ● Protection Features and Wide Temperature Range The synchronous buck LED controller uses Maxim's F3 Increase System Reliability Architecture, a proprietary average-current-mode control • Short Circuit, Overvoltage, and Thermal Protection scheme to regulate the inductor current at a constant • -40°C to +125°C Operating Temperature Range switching frequency without any control-loop compensa- tion.
