Low Input Voltage, 160V
PP
Output Voltage, EL Driver
General Description
Micrel’s MIC4826 is a high output voltage, DC to AC converter,
designed for driving EL (Electroluminescent) lamps. The
device operates from an input voltage range of 1.8V to 5.5V,
making it suitable for 1-cell Li Ion and 2- or 3-cell alkaline/
NiCad/NiMH battery applications. The MIC4826 converts
a low voltage DC input to a 160V
PP
AC output signal that
drives the EL lamp.
The MIC4826 is comprised of two stages: a boost stage, and
an H-bridge, lamp driver, stage. The boost stage steps the
input voltage up to +80V. The H-bridge stage then alternately
switches the +80V output to each terminal of the EL lamp,
thus creating a 160V
PP
AC signal to drive the EL lamp and
generate light.
The MIC4826 features separate oscillators for the boost-
and H-bridge stages. External resistors independently set
the operating frequency of each stage. This flexibility allows
the EL lamp circuit to be optimized for maximum efficiency
and brightness.
The MIC4826 uses a single inductor and a minimum number
of external components, making it ideal for portable, space-
sensitive applications.
The MIC4826 is available in an 8-pin MSOP package with
an ambient temperature range of –40°C to +85°C.

Pin Function
Supply (Input): 1.8V to 5.5V for internal circuitry.
Switch Resistor (External Component): Set switch frequency of the internal
power MOSFET by connecting an external resistor to VDD. Connecting the
external resistor to GND disables the switch oscillator and shutdown the
device.
EL Resistor (External Component): Set EL frequency of the internal H-bridge
driver by connecting an external resistor to VDD. Connecting the external
resistor to GND disables the EL oscillator.
Ground Return.
Switch Node (Input): Internal high-voltage power MOSFET drain.
Regulated Boost Output (External Component): Connect to the output ca-
pacitor of the boost regulator and connect to the cathode of the diode.
EL Output: Connect to one end of the EL lamp. Polarity is not important.
EL Output: Connect to the other end of the EL lamp. Polarity is not important.
