SGM3785
2MHz, 1.5A Flash LED Driver
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The SGM3785 is a highly integrated boost DC/DC
converter with 2MHz fixed frequency. High switching
frequency makes it easy to use tiny components and
optimized for portable photo flash. The SGM3785 is
ideal for high power flash LEDs which are suited for
mobile phone camera modules and digital still cameras.
● Input Voltage Range: 3V to 5V
● Up to Total 1.5A or Each 0.75A LED Current
● Up to 90% Efficiency
● Dual Flash LED Outputs
● Tiny Inductor: 1.0μH
● 2MHz Boost Converter
● Separate Flash Mode Enable and Movie/Torch
Mode Enable Control Pins
The SGM3785 offers excellent flexibility to enter flash
mode and movie/torch mode through the ENF and
ENM pins respectively. Flash mode is usually used with
660ms timer control to generate a high intensity flash.
The maximal flash current and movie/torch current are
respectively programmed through external resistors
(RSETF and RSETM), which can provide simple control for
the flash LED solution. The real LED current in flash
mode and movie/torch mode can be programmed by
external PWM signal on ENM pin.
● Flash Current and Movie/Torch Current can be
Programmed through PWM Signal on ENM Pin
● Independent Resistors Set Flash Current and
Movie/Torch Current Respectively
● Integrated Thermal Regulation Control
● 660ms Flash Timer Control
● 330kΩ Pull-Down Resistor on ENM and ENF Pins
● Protection Features
Output Over-Voltage Protection
LED Open or Short Protection
The D1 and D2 pins can be tied together to drive higher
power single flash LEDs, sinking up to 1.5A continuous
current. The integrated thermal regulation in flash mode
limits the temperature of the device. It can prevent the
device from triggering thermal shutdown and provide
the maximum LED output current continuously.
Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit
● Less than 1μA Shutdown Current
● Available in a Green TDFN-3×2-14L Package
● Temperature Range: -40℃ to +85℃
The SGM3785 provides very low shutdown current. It
also includes a comprehensive set of protection
features such as over-voltage protection, LED open or
short protection and thermal shutdown.
APPLICATIONS
Portable Equipment
The SGM3785 is available in a Green TDFN-3×2-14L
package. It operates over an ambient temperature
range of -40℃ to +85℃.
