LED Selection
Device Power Efficiency
The AAT3170 is designed to drive high-intensity
white LEDs. It is particularly suitable for LEDs with
an operating forward-voltage in the range of 4.2V
to 1.5V.
The AAT3170 power conversion efficiency
depends on the charge pump mode. By definition,
device efficiency is expressed as the output power
delivered to the LED divided by the total input
power consumed.
The charge pump device can also drive other loads
that have similar characteristics to white LEDs. For
various load types, the AAT3170 provides a high-cur-
rent, programmable ideal constant current source.
