SC620ULTRT

The SC620 is a multi-purpose LED driver with eight identical, independently controlled current sinks. Each current sink can drive an LED by connecting the LED’s anode to the system power supply and the cathode to the current sink input pin. Any combination of outputs can be enabled or disabled for optimal design fl exibility.The SC620 also employs an adjustable global current gain setting register to allow the current setting step size to vary from 31.25μA to 500μA. This provides a wide range of options for LED variation and dimming functions. The maximum output is also scaled by this step size, with a maximum of 25mA at the highest step setting. Multi-colored and white LEDs with diff erent forward voltages can be driven using the same SC620 due to its floating cathode technology. This feature allows each output pin to vary in voltage from 150mV to VIN - 1.5V.All current control is programmed using an I2 C interface bus. Only a single input bypass capacitor is required — no other external resistors or capacitors are needed. The 3mm x 3mm MLPQ package and minimal support components make the SC620 an ideal solution for low-cost, area-conscious backlighting designs.
