The KIT34844AEPEVBE Evaluation board supports the 34844/A, which is a high efficiency, LED driver for use in backlighting LCD displays from 10" to 20"+. Operating from supplies of 7.0 to 28V, the MC34844/A is capable of driving up to 160 LEDs in 10 parallel strings. Current in the 10 strings is matched to within ±2%, and can be programmed via the I²C/SM Bus interface.
The 34844/A also includes a Pulse Width Monitor (PWM) generator for LED dimming. The LEDs can be dimmed to one of 256 levels, programmed through the I²C/SM Bus interface. Up to 65,000:1 (256:1 PWM, 256:1 Current DAC) dimming ratio.
The integrated boost converter generates the minimum output voltage required to keep all LEDs illuminated with the selected current, providing the highest efficiency possible.
