HT7939A -- High Current and Performance White LED Driver

General Description

The HT7939A is a high efficiency boost converter for driving multiple White LEDs using current mode operation. The device is designed to drive up to 39 White LEDs from a 5V power supply. The White LED current is setup using an external current setting resistor, which has a low feedback voltage of 0.2V to minimise resistor power losses and thus improving efficiency.

The HT7939A has a dimming frequency of up to 200kHz, which has excellent linear performance over this dimming frequency range. The over voltage function prevents device damage by turning off the converter should the LED load become open circuit. The device also includes over current protection, over temperature protection and under voltage protection preventing damage to the device should the output be overloaded.
