28-Pin Thin QFN, 4mm x 4mm Package
MAX8631X/Y
The MAX8631X/Y charge pump drives up to eight white
LEDs with regulated constant current for uniform inten-
sity. The main group of LEDs (M1–M4) can be driven
up to 30mA per LED for backlighting. The flash group
of LEDs (F1–F4) is independently controlled and can be
driven up to 100mA per LED (or 400mA total). Two
200mA LDOs are on-board to provide power for cam-
era functions. The LDOs’ output voltages are pin-pro-
grammable to meet different camera-module
requirements. By utilizing adaptive 1x/1.5x/2x charge-
pump modes and very-low-dropout current regulators,
the MAX8631X/Y achieves high efficiency over the full
1-cell lithium-battery voltage range. The 1MHz fixed-fre-
quency switching allows for tiny external components,
and the regulation scheme is optimized to ensure low
EMI and low input ripple.
The MAX8631X/Y is available in a 28-pin thin QFN,
4mm x 4mm lead-free package (0.8mm max height).

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Note 1:
All devices are 100% production tested at T
A
= +25°C. Limits over the operating temperature range are guaranteed by
design.
Note 2:
LED dropout voltage is defined as the M_ or F_ to GND voltage at which current into M_ or F_ drops 10% from the value at
M_ or F_ = 0.2V.
Note 3:

when V
OUT
is 100mV below the value of V
OUT
measured when V
IN
=

OUT(NOM)
