AAT3194
High Efficiency 1.5X Fractional Charge
Pump For White LED Applications
™
ChargePump
General Description
Features
The AAT3194 is a low noise, constant frequency
charge pump DC/DC converters that use fractional
(1.5X) conversion to increase efficiency in white
LED applications. The devices can be used to pro-
duce current levels up to 20mA for each output
from a 2.7V to 5.5V input. A low external parts
count (two 1µF flying capacitors and two small
bypass capacitors at IN and OUT) makes these
devices ideally suited for small, battery-powered
applications.

AnalogicTech’s Simple Serial Control™ (S2Cwire™)
interface is used to enable, disable, and set the
LED drive current for 32-level logarithmic scale LED
brightness control. The AAT3194 has a thermal
management system for protection in the event of a
short-circuit condition on any of the output pins.
Built-in soft-start circuitry prevents excessive inrush
current during start-up. A high switching frequency
enables the use of small external capacitors. A low-
current shutdown feature disconnects the load from
VIN and reduces quiescent current to less than 1µA.
The AAT3194 is available in a Pb-free 12-pin
TSOPJW package.
