AAT3172
High Current LED Flash Driver Charge Pump IC
General Description
The AAT3172 is a high output current, high efficiency,
low noise, low profile charge pump DC/DC converter,
ideal for multi-function LED photo-flash applications
where solution cost, size, and efficiency are critical.
The dual charge pump in the AAT3172 is capable of deliv-
ering 600mA output current. Two current-controlled paths
are available for users of dual flash LEDs that prefer cur-
rent matching. Each LED channel can be easily pro-
grammed in 32 steps with a single GPIO output through
the AS2Cwire™ (Advanced Simple Serial Control™) inter-
face. This allows smooth transitions and flexible adjust-
ment of brightness in flash or other lighting modes.
The tri-mode (1X/1.5X/2X) operation of the internal
charge pump offers excellent power efficiency for both
flash and movie modes. Combined with a low external
parts count (two 1µF flying capacitors and one small
bypass capacitor at VIN and OUT), the AAT3172 is ideally
suited for small, battery-powered applications.
The AAT3172 has a thermal management system to pro-
tect the device in the event of a short-circuit condition at
the output pin. Built-in soft-start circuitry prevents
excessive inrush current during start-up. The shutdown
feature disconnects the load from VIN and reduces quies-
cent current to less than 1.0µA.
The AAT3172 is available in the Pb-free, thermally-
enhanced, 12-pin 3x3mm TDFN package.
