AS3649 2500mA High Current LED Flash Driver 1 General Description 2 Key Features High efficiency 4MHz fixed frequency DCDC Boost converter The AS3649 is an inductive high efficient DCDC step up converter with soft start allows small coils with two current sources. The DCDC step up converter operates at a fixed frequency of 4MHz and includes soft startup to allow easy - Stable even in coil current limit integration into noise sensitive RF systems. The two current sources LED current adjustable up to 2x1000mA(2x1250mA with current can operate in flash / torch or video light modes. boost) or 2000mA and automatic load balancing for two LEDs The AS3649 includes flash timeout, overvoltage, overtemperature, Automatic current adjustment for low battery voltage undervoltage and LED short/open circuit protection functions. A PWM operation for lower output current for reliable light output TXMASK/TORCH function reduces the flash current in case of of the LED can run at 31.5kHz to avoid audible noise parallel operation to the RF power amplifier and avoids a system shutdown. Alternatively this pin can be used to directly operate the Protection functions: torch light directly. If the TXMask function is not used, it can be used Automatic Flash Timeout timer to protect the LED(s) as a hardware torch input (programmable). Overvoltage and undervoltage Protection Overtemperature Protection A hardware NTC pin can be used to measure the LED temperature LED short/open circuit protection with the ADC and to automatically reduce the LED current if a temperature threshold is exceeded. ADC to measure LED temperature 2 NTC to automatically reduce the flash current if the LED The AS3649 is controlled by an I C interface and has a hardware temperature is too high (programmable level) reset pin ON. Setting ON=0 resets the AS3649. Interface input 2 voltage levels are 1.8V compliant. I C Interface with hardware reset pin The AS3649 is available in a space-saving WL-CSP package Available in tiny WL-CSP Package, 16 balls 0.5mm pitch, measuring only 2.06x2.02x0.6mm and operates over the -30C to 2.06x2.02x0.6mm package size +85C temperature range. 3 Applications Flash/Torch for mobile phones Figure 1.
