The LTC®3218 is a low-noise, high-current charge pump DC/DC converter capable of driving high current LEDs at up to 400mA from a 2.9V to 4.5V input. A low external parts count (one fl ying capacitor, two programming resistors and two bypass capacitors at VIN and CPO) make the LTC3218 ideally suited for small, battery-powered applications.
Built-in soft-start circuitry of LTC3218 prevents excessive inrush current during start-up. High switching frequency enables the use of small external capacitors. A built-in 2-second timer protects the LED during fl ash mode.
Output current level of LTC3218 is programmed by an external resistor. LED current is regulated using an internal high side 220m sense resistor. Automatic mode switching optimizes effi ciency by monitoring the voltage across the charge pump and switching modes only when dropout is detected. The part is available in a low profi le 3mm * 2mm 10-lead DFN package.
