NCP5050
4.5 W Flash White LED
Boost Driver
The NCP5050 is a high powered fixed frequency PWM boost
converter optimized for constant current applications such as driving
high-powered white LEDs. This device has been designed with
high-efficiency for use in portable applications and is capable of
driving up to 5 high power LEDs in series for camera flash or
flashlight (torch) applications. To support the need of driving the
LEDs in a high current pulse mode for flash as well as a continuous
mode for focus or torch, a control pin and support circuitry is
incorporated which allows the user to program two LED currents. The
both output current are fully configurable via the use of 2 external
resistors and this average current can be reduced by applying a PWM
signal to the CTRL pin up to 50 kHz.
The PWM operates at 1.7 MHz which allows the use of small
inductors and ceramic capacitors. In addition the compensation is
internal to the device which simplifies the design and reduces the PCB
component count. To protect the device cycle-by-cycle current
limiting and a thermal shutdown circuit have been incorporated as
well as output over-voltage and time out protection. The maximum
peak current level of the power switch is adjustable to allow further
system optimization. The NCP5050 is housed in a low profile space
efficient 3x3 mm thermally enhanced WDFN.
