(RSET) to set the maximum LED current. The AAT3192
can drive two constant output sinks (D1 and D2) with up
to 30mA maximum current each. AnalogicTech’s S2Cwire
serial interface enables the AAT3192-1/-2/-3 and chang-
es the current sink magnitudes through the EN/SET pin.
The AAT3192-4 uses an external PWM signal to enable
the IC and control the brightness of the LEDs.
Functional Description
TheAAT3192isalow-costcharge-pumpsolutiondesigned
to drive up to two white LEDs. The charge pump oper-
ates from a 2.7V to 5.5V power source and converts it to
voltage levels necessary to drive the LEDs. LED current
is individually controlled through integrated current sinks
powered from the output of the charge pump. Low 1x
charge-pump output resistance and low-drop voltage
current sinks allow the charge pump to stay in 1x mode
with an input voltage as low as 3.75V and LED forward
voltages as high as 3.5V. Once in 2x mode, the charge
pump monitors the input supply voltage and automati-
cally switches back to 1x mode when there is sufficient
input voltage.
Constant Current Control using RSET
The maximum current is programmed by an external
resistor at the RSET pin. Using a 14.3kΩ external resis-
tor at the RSET pin, the AAT3192-1/-2/-4 includes an
integrated serial LED current control that sets the full-
scale LED current between 20mA and 0.63mA. For the
AAT3192-3, a 11.5kΩ external resistor at the RSET pin
sets the full-scale LED current between 20mA and
1.3mA. The full-scale LED current can set higher or lower
than 20mA; see Table 5. For maximum accuracy, a 1%
tolerance resistor is recommended.
The AAT3192 requires only four external components:
one 1ꢀF ceramic capacitor for the charge pump flying
capacitors (CP), one 1ꢀF ceramic input capacitor (CIN),
one 1ꢀF ceramic output capacitor (COUT) and a resistor
