WHITE LED STEP-UP CONVERTER AP3033
General Description
The AP3033 is an inductor-based DC/DC boost con-
verter designed to drive LED arrays. 1.3A switching
current allows AP3033 to be used in different 7' to 10'
LCD panel backlights (3S8P LED arrays typically).
A constant frequency 1MHz PWM control scheme is
employed in this IC, which means tiny external com-
ponents can be used. Specifically, 1mm tall 10
µ
H
inductor and 10
µ
F output capacitor for the typical
application is sufficient.
The over output voltage protection is equipped in
AP3033, which protects the IC under open load condi-
tion. The AP3033 includes UVLO, soft-start, standby
mode, current limit and OTSD to protect the circuit.
The AP3033 is available in standard TSOT-23-6 pack-
age.
