IS31FL3218
18 CHANNELS LED DRIVER
April 2012
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
IS31FL3218 is comprised of 18 constant current
channels each with independent PWM control,
designed for driving LEDs. The output current of each
channel can be set at up to 38mA (Max.) by an external
resistor. The average LED current of each channel can
be changed in 256 steps by changing the PWM duty
cycle through an I2C interface.
2.7V to 5.5V supply
I2C interface, automatic address increment
function
Internal reset register
Modulate LED brightness with 256 steps PWM
Each channel can be controlled independently
-40°C to +85°C temperature range
QFN-24 (4mm × 4mm), SOP-24 package
The chip can be turned off by pulling the SDB pin low or
by using the software shutdown feature to reduce
power consumption. The slave address is fixed “1010
1000”.
APPLICATIONS
IS31FL3218 is available in QFN-24 (4mm × 4mm) and
SOP-24. It operates from 2.7V to 5.5V over the
temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
Mobile phones and other hand-held devices for
LED display
LED in home appliances

Note: The maximum output current is set up to 23mA when REXT = 3.3kΩ. The maximum output current can be set by external resistor, REXT
.
Please refer to the detail information in Page 9.
Note: The IC should be placed far away from the mobile antenna in order to prevent the EMI.
