General Description
The AP3601 low-dropout bias supply for white LEDs is
a high-performance alternative to the simple ballastGeneral Description
The AP3601 low-dropout bias supply for white LEDs is
a high-performance alternative to the simple ballast
resistors used in conventional white LED designs. The
AP3601 uses an internal resistor to set the bias current
for 4 LEDs, which are matched to 4%. The AP3601's
advantages over ballast resistors include much lower bias
variation with supply voltage variation, significantly
lower dropout voltage, and in some applications,
significantly improved efficiency. The AP3601 requires
only a 60mV dropout voltage at a 20mA load on each
output to match the LED brightness.
Applications
? Next-Generation Wireless Handsets
? PDAs, Palms, and Handy Terminals
? Dial Cameras, Camcorders
? Battery-Powered Equipment
Features
? Low 60mV Dropout at 20mA
? 4% LED Current MatchingGeneral Description
