General Description
The MAX16812 is a peak-current-mode LED driver with
an integrated 0.2 power MOSFET designed to control
the current in a single string of high-brightness LEDs
(HB LEDs). The MAX16812 can be used in multiple
converter topologies such as buck, boost, or buck-
boost. The MAX16812 operates over a 5.5V to 76V wide
supply voltage range.
The MAX16812 features a low-frequency, wide-range
brightness adjustment (100:1), analog and PWM dim-
ming control input, as well as a resistor-programmable
EMI suppression circuitry to control the rise and fall
times of the internal switching MOSFET. A high-side
LED current-sense amplifier and a dimming MOSFET
driver are also included, simplifying the design and
reducing the total component count.
The MAX16812 uses peak-current-mode control,
adjustable slope compensation that allows for addition-
al design flexibility. The device has two current regula-
tion loops. The first loop controls the internal switching
MOSFET peak current, while the second current regula-
tion loop controls the LED current. Switching frequency
can be adjusted from 125kHz to 500kHz.
Additional features include adjustable UVLO, soft-start,
external enable/disable input, thermal shutdown, a
1.238V 1% accurate buffered reference, and an on-
chip oscillator. An internal 5.2V linear regulator supplies
up to 20mA to power external devices.
The MAX16812 is available in a thermally enhanced
5mm x 5mm, 28-pin TQFN-EP package and is specified
over the automotive -40°C to +125°C temperature range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
