MAX25600Synchronous High-Voltage Four-SwitchBuck- Boost LED ControllerGeneral DescriptionBenefits and Features The MAX25600 is a synchronous 4-switch buck-boost ● Automotive Ready: AEC-Q100 Qualified LED driver controller. The controller regulates the LED ● Integration Minimizes BOM for High-Brightness LED current for LED string voltages from 0V to 60V. The Driver, Saving Space and Reducing Cost MAX25600 can be used as a seamless buck-boost LED • Wide Input Voltage Range from 5V to 60V driver for applications that require an efficient buck-boost LED driver with synchronous rectification. The MAX25600 • H-Bridge Single Inductor Buck-Boost Architecture is ideal for high-power applications that require a current • Constant-Current and Constant-Voltage Regulation source with PWM dimming capability. • 28-pin TSSOP with EP Pad and 28-pin (5mm x 5mm) TQFN with EP Pad Packages The device provides seamless transition between buck, boost, and buck-boost modes depending on the ratio of ● Wide Dimming Ratio allows High Contrast Ratio input to output voltage. The MAX25600 is ideal for LED • Analog and PWM Dimming driver applications in automotive, industrial, and other • Flicker-Free PWM Dimming with Spread Spectrum LED lighting applications. A fault flag indicates open LED, • Integrated pMOS Dimming FET Gate Driver shorted LED, or thermal shutdown conditions. The device • 200Hz On-Board Ramp Simplifies PWM Dimming uses Maxim's proprietary average-current-mode control ● Protection Features and Wide Temperature Range scheme and allows adjustable 200kHz to 700kHz fixed- Increase System Reliability frequency operation. In addition, ±6% triangular spread • Short Circuit,Overvoltage, and Thermal Protection spectrum is added internally to the oscillator to improve • LED Current Monitor and Input Current Limiter EMI performance. The MAX25600 provides both analog • -40ºC to +125ºC Operating Junction-Temperature and digital PWM dimming, and has built-in analog PWM Range dimming at a dimming frequency of 200Hz. The adjust- able soft-start feature limits the current peaks and volt- age overshoots at startup. The MAX25600 integrates a Simplified Application Circuit high-side p-channel dimming MOSFET driver for PWM dimming applications that require fast rising and fall- INPUT RIN VOUT ing edges of the LED current.
