9-Channel RGBW LED Driver with Buck Regulator and I2C Interface

Description

The KTD2042 is an ideal power solution for RGBW LED driver with an integrated buck regulator. It has 9 high- precision current sinks that can be independently controlled via I2C interface.

The buck regulator has an input voltage operating range from 2.7V to 5.5V to accommodate 1-cell lithium-ion batteries or 5V voltage rail. It has adaptive output voltage control based on the headroom voltages of the LED current sinks to minimize the power consumption. It has integrated high-side and low-side power FET. The buck regulator features advanced adaptive On-Time control with 1MHz switching frequency, which minimizes external component counts and allows the use of a very small inductor and capacitor.

The KTD2042 has 9 built-in current sinks, which features independent On/Off control and 6-bit independent current dimming via I2C interface. The KTD2042 has extensive built-in protection features including cycle-by cycle current limit, input undervoltage Lockout (UVLO), output over-voltage protection, LED fault (open) protection and thermal shutdown protection.

The KTD2042 is available in a RoHS and Green compliant 3mm x 3mm UQFN package.
