General Description
Features
The MIC3287 is a 1.2MHz pulse width modulated (PWM)
step-up switching regulator that is optimized for constant cur-
rent white LED driving applications. With a switch current of
over 350mA, the MIC3287-24 drives a string of up to 4 white
LEDs in series, ensuring uniform brightness and eliminating
several ballast resistors.
• 2.8V to 6.5V Input Voltage
• 350mA Switch Current
• 1.2 MHz PWM Operation
• 250mV Feedback Voltage
• Optional 24V Output Over-Voltage Protection (OVP)
• Up to 36V Output Voltage without OVP
• <1% Line and Load Regulation
• <1µA Shutdown Current
TheMIC3287implementsaconstantfrequency1.2MHzPWM
current-mode control scheme. The high frequency PWM op-
eration saves board space by reducing external component
sizes. The added benefit of the constant frequency PWM
control scheme as opposed to variable frequency control
schemes is much lower noise and input ripple injected back
to the battery source. To optimize efficiency, the feedback
voltage is set to only 250mV. The MIC3287 is also available
with a maximum 24V over-voltage protection.
• Over-Temperature Protection
• Under-Voltage Lock Out (UVLO)
• Low Profile Thin SOT-23-5 Package Option
• Low Profile Thin SOT-23-6 Package Option

• 8-pin 2mm x 2mm MLF Package Option
• –40°C to +125°C Junction Temperature Range
The MIC3287 is available in low profile Thin SOT-23 5-pin
and Thin SOT-23 6-pin packages. The MIC3287 has a junc-
tion temperature range of –40°C to +125°C.
