MAX1573ETE+

General Description
The MAX1573 fractional charge pump drives up to four
white LEDs with regulated constant current for uniform
intensity. By utilizing proprietary adaptive 1x/1.5x
modes and ultra-low-dropout current regulators, it
maintains the highest possible efficiency over the full
1-cell Li+ battery input voltage range. The 1MHz fixed-
frequency switching allows for tiny external compo-
nents and the regulation scheme is optimized to ensure
low EMI and low input ripple.
An external resistor sets the full-scale LED current, while
two digital inputs control on/off and select amongst three
levels of brightness. A pulse-width modulation (PWM)
signal can also be used to modulate LED brightness,
requiring no additional components.
The MAX1573 is available in the tiny chip-scale UCSP™
(4 x 4 grid) and 16-pin thin QFN packages.
