High-Power Synchronous HBLED
Drivers with Rapid Current Pulsing
General Description
The MAX16821A, MAX16821B, and MAX16821C pulse-
width-modulation (PWM) LED driver controllers provide
high output-current capability in a compact package with a
minimum number of external components. The
MAX16821A–MAX16821C are suitable for use in synchro-
nous and nonsynchronous step-down (buck), boost, buck-
boost, SEPIC, and Cuk LED drivers. A logic input (MODE)
allows the devices to switch between synchronous buck
and boost modes of operation. These devices are the first
high-power drivers designed specifically to accommodate
common-anode HB LEDs.
The ICs offer average current-mode control that enable
the use of MOSFETs with optimal charge and on-
resistance figure of merit, thus minimizing the need for
external heatsinking even when delivering up to 30A of
LED current.
The differential sensing scheme provides accurate control
of the LED current. The ICs operate from a 4.75V to 5.5V
supply range with the internal regulator disabled (V
CC
connected to IN). These devices operate from a 7V to 28V
input supply voltage with the internal regulator enabled.
The MAX16821A–MAX16821C feature a clock output
with 180° phase delay to control a second out-of-phase
LED driver to reduce input and output filter capacitor size
and to minimize ripple currents. The wide switching fre-
quency range (125kHz to 1.5MHz) allows the use of small
inductors and capacitors.
Additional features include programmable overvoltage
protection and an output enable function.

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.
