Integrated 8-Channel LED Drivers with
Switch-Mode Boost and SEPIC Controller
General Description
The MAX16807/MAX16808 are integrated, high-efficien-
cy white or RGB LED drivers. They are designed for
LCD backlighting and other LED lighting applications
with multiple strings of LEDs. The MAX16807/
MAX16808’s current-mode PWM controller regulates
the necessary voltage to the LED array. Depending on
the input voltage and LED voltage range, it can be
used with boost or buck-boost (SEPIC) topologies. The
MAX16807/MAX16808 feature an 8V to 26.5V input volt-
age range. A wide range of adjustable frequency
(20kHz to 1MHz) allows design optimization for efficien-
cy and minimum board space.
The MAX16807/MAX16808 LED drivers include eight
open-drain, constant-current-sinking LED driver outputs
rated for 36V continuous operation. The LED current-
control circuitry achieves ±3% current matching among
strings and enables paralleling of outputs for LED string
currents higher than 55mA. The output-enable pin is
used for simultaneous PWM dimming of all output chan-
nels. Dimming frequency range is 50Hz to 30kHz and
dimming ratio is up to 5000:1. The constant-current out-
puts are single resistor programmable and the LED cur-
rent can be adjusted up to 55mA per output channel.
The MAX16807/MAX16808 operate either in stand-alone
mode or with a microcontroller (µC) using an industry-
standard, 4-wire serial interface. The MAX16808 includes
circuitry that automatically detects open-circuit LEDs.
The MAX16807/MAX16808 include overtemperature
protection, operate over the full -40°C to +125°C tem-
perature range, and are available in a thermally
enhanced, 28-pin TSSOP exposed paddle package.
Pin Configurations appear at end of data sheet.

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.
