• description The LTC3212 is a low noise charge pump RGB LED driver capable of driving three LEDs up to 25mA each from a 2.7V to 5.5V input. LTC3212 is a low-noise charge-pumped RGB LED driver capable of driving three LEDs from 2.7V to 5.5V inputs up to 25mA each. Low external part count (one flying capacitor, two bypass capacitors and one to three programming resistors) makes the LTC3212 ideally suited for small, battery-powered The low number of external components (one jumper capacitor, two bypass capacitors, and one to three years of programming resistors) makes LTC3212 ideal for small, battery-powered applications. Built-in soft-start circuitry prevents excessive inrush current during start-up and mode switching. High switching frequency enables the use of small external capacitors. The charge pump shuts down to a high impedance mode to prevent LED leakage while the LTC3212 is off LTC3212. Each LED may be individually turned on or off via a single pin interface. The current through the LEDs may be individually programmed with resistors or may share a single programming resistor. White mode adjusts the red, green and blue LED current ratios for a white light when all three LEDs are programmed to be on. LED currents are regulated using internal low dropout current sources. Automatic mode switching optimizes effi ciency by monitoring the LED current drivers and switches mode only when dropout is detected.
