General Description

        The ET9381Y 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 ET9381Y automatically switches modes between step-up and step-down ensuring that LED current does not depend on the forward voltage. It switches at 2MHz, allowing the use of tiny components.

        The ET9381Y also features a very low shutdown current, an automatic soft-start mode to limit inrush current, as well as over current, over voltage and over thermal shutdown control. A low current sense reference voltage (50mV) allows the use of small 0603 current sensing resistors. The ET9381Y is available in Green DFN3×3-10L package.
