The SP6686 is a current-regulated charge pump ideal for powering high brightness LEDs for camera flash applications.
 
The charge pump can be set to regulate two current levels for FLASH and TORCH modes. The SP6686 automatically switches modes between step-up and step-down ensuring that LED current does not depend on the forward voltage. A low current sense reference voltage (50mV) allows the use of small 0603 current sensing resistors.
 
The SP6686 is designed to operate from a single cell lithium-ion battery or fixed 3.3V or 5.0V power rails and is available in a RoHS compliant, “green”/halogen free space saving 10-pin 3mmx3mm DFN package.

  • Output current up to 400mA
  • Up to 94% efficiency in torch mode
  • Automatic soft-start limits inrush current
  • Adjustable FLASH mode
  • x1 and x2 automatic modes for high efficiency
  • Minimum external components: no inductors
  • High frequency operation: 2.4MHz
  • Low 50mV reference for low loss sensing
  • 1μA shutdown current
  • PWM dimming control
  • Automatic switchover between buck/boost
  • Overvoltage protection on output
  • Overcurrent/temperature protection
  • Low ripple and EMI
  • Space Saving 10-pin 3mm x 3mm DFN package
