MP7235
36V, 3A, Synchronous Buck
Infrared Radiation LED Driver
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MP7235 is a high-frequency, synchronous,
rectified, step-down, switch-mode LED driver
with integrated power MOSFETs. It offers a very
compact solution to achieve 1.5A of continuous
output current (ILED) and 3A of peak LED current
(IPEAK), with excellent load and line regulation
across a wide input supply range. The MP7235
also offers synchronous mode operation to
achieve high efficiency.
•
Built for a Wide Range of IR LED
Applications:
o Wide 4V to 36V Operating Input Voltage
(VIN) Range
o Up to 1.5A of Continuous LED Current
(ILED
)
o Up to 3A of Peak LED Current (IPEAK
)
with Low Dimming Frequencies at Small
Duty Cycles
o PWM Dimming Frequency: 10Hz to
2kHz
o Compatible with 30fps, 60fps, and
120fps Dimming
High Performance for Improved
Thermals:
o 85mΩ/50mΩ Low RDS(ON) Internal Power
MOSFETs
The MP7235 supports low pulse-width
modulation (PWM) dimming frequencies at small
dimming duty cycles. The device can support
PWM dimming frequencies as low as 10Hz to
adjust infrared radiation (IR) in LED driver
applications. It is compatible with 30fps, 60fps,
and 120fps dimming.
•
Current-mode operation provides fast transient
response and eases loop stabilization.
