SGM3123
White LED Driver with
Low Dropout Current Source
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SGM3123 low-dropout bias supply for white LEDs
is a high-performance alternative to the simple ballast
resistors used in conventional white LED designs. It is
optimized
for
low
power
keypad
and
portable
backlighting applications.
The SGM3123 uses an internal resistor to set the bias
current for four LEDs, which are matched to ±5%. The
SGM3123's advantages over ballast resistors include
much lower bias variation with supply voltage variation,
significantly lower dropout voltage, and in some
applications, significantly improved efficiency.
The SGM3123 requires only a 40mV dropout voltage at
a 20mA load on each output to match the LED
brightness.
The SGM3123 is available in Green TQFN-3×3-16L
package. It operates over an ambient temperature range
of -40℃ to +85℃.

CAUTION
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD if you don’t pay
attention to ESD protection. SGMICRO recommends that all
integrated circuits be handled with appropriate precautions.
Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures
can cause damage. ESD damage can range from subtle
performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision
integrated circuits may be more susceptible to damage because
very small parametric changes could cause the device not to
meet its published specifications.
SGMICRO reserves the right to make any change in circuit
design, specification or other related things if necessary without
notice at any time. Please contact SGMICRO sales office to get
the latest datasheet.

NOTES:
1. The thermal resistance figures are for general reference only.
Actual thermal characteristics may vary with the PCB layout,
size of metal trace, the thermal conduction path between metal
layers and the environment of the system.
2. 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.
