The SGM3784 is a very compact, highly efficient, dual white LED flash driver for high resolution camera phones that improves picture and video quality in low light environments. The device integrates a programmable 1.6MHz or 3MHz synchronous inductive boost converter, an I2C-compatible interface, and two 1.1A current sources. The high switching frequency enables the use of a tiny, 1mm high, low cost, 1μH power inductor, and the parallel current sources permit LED cathode grounding for thermally enhanced, low EMI and compact layouts.
The LED driver maximizes efficiency over the entire battery voltage range to maximize the input-power-to-LED-power conversion and minimize battery current draw during flash events.
A programmable DC battery current limit safely maximizes LED current for all LED forward voltage and battery voltage conditions.
A Transmitter Mask (TxMASK) input enables fast reduction of the flash LED currents and battery current during a power amplifier current burst. The I2C-compatible interface can be used to program timers and currents and to read back status bits for operation monitoring and safety control.
The SGM3784 is available in WLCSP-2×1.6-12B package and operates within specification over the full -40℃ to +85℃ operating temperature range.
