AAT3131
High Efficiency 1X/1.5X Fractional
Charge Pump for White LED Applications

General Description
Features
The AAT3131 is a low noise, constant frequency
charge pump DC/DC converter that uses a dual
mode Load Switch (1X) and fractional (1.5X) con-
version to maximize efficiency for White LED appli-
cations. The device can be used to produce cur-
rent levels up to 20mA in three of its outputs, and
30mA in one of its outputs to drive LEDs from a
2.7V to 5.5V input. Outputs may be operated indi-
vidually or paralleled for driving higher-current
LEDs. Low external parts counts (two 1µF flying
capacitors and two small 1µF capacitors at VIN,
and OUT) make the AAT3131 ideally suited for
small battery-powered applications.

(S Cwire™) interface is used to enable, disable
No Inductors
and set the LED drive current in two groups: the
three 20mA outputs and the single 30mA output
with multiple level logarithmic scales. The AAT3131
has a thermal management system to protect 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. A high
charge pump switching frequency enables the use
of very small external capacitors. A low current
shutdown feature disconnects the load from VIN
and reduces quiescent current to less than 1µA.
The AAT3131 is available in very small 12 pin
TSOPJW12 package.
