低压降稳压单白光LED驱动器-TPS7510X,提供了超乎想象的小型解决方案尺寸:Analog ApplicaTIons JournalLDO white-LED driver TPS7510x providesincredibly small soluTIon sizeIntroducTIonUse of white-LED drivers has increased inrecent years due to the popularity of colorLCD screens on most portable electronicequipment. The white backlight required tobring out the color in these screens is mostoften provided by white LEDs. In applicaTIonspowered by a one-cell Li-ion battery,charge pumps or boost converters have beenrequired to drive these LEDs because oftheir high forward voltage (4 V typical). Aswhite-LED technology has advanced, theforward voltage required has significantlydropped. Today, white LEDs such as Nichia’sNHSW046 or NSSW100C are available witha typical forward voltage of less than 3 V.The lower forward voltage eliminates theneed for voltage boosting, permitting theuse of linear regulation topologies thatreduce costs and solution size and increaseefficiency across the battery-discharge range. Figure 1compares the efficiency and battery voltage of the TexasInstruments TPS7510x and a typical series LED boost converter.
