1A STEP-DOWN CONSTANT CURRENT, HIGH EFFICIENCY LED DRIVER
Description
The PAM2804 is a step-down constant current LED driver. When the 
input voltage down to lower than LED forward voltage, then PAM2804 
run into LDO mode. 
 
The PAM2804 supports a range of input voltages from 2.5V to 6.0V, 
allowing the use of a single Li+/Li-polymer cell, 3AA or 4AA cell, USB, 
and other standard power sources. 
 
The FB voltage is only 0.1V to achieve high efficiency. 
 
PAM2804 employ internal power switch and synchronous rectifier to 
minimize external part count and realize high efficiency. 
 
During shutdown, the input is disconnected from the output and the 
shutdown current is less than 1µA. Other key features include under-
voltage lockout to prevent deep battery discharge of the Li+ battery.
