DESCRIPTION
The EV3391EY-00A is an evaluation board for
the MP3391EY, a step-up converter designed
for large liquid-crystal displays that employ an
array of LEDs as the light source. It can drive
up to 8 WLED strings in parallel with 80mA
maximum current.
The MP3391 uses external power MOSFET
and internal current mode, fixed frequency
architecture and includes current ballast in each
string terminal, which achieves 2.5% current
regulation accuracy between strings. Low
feedback voltage at each LED string help
reduce power loss and improve efficiency.
The MP3391 is flexible for extending LED
channels with two or more MP3391s in parallel.
The MP3391 has multiple features to protect
the converter from fault conditions, including
under-voltage lockout, current limiting, over
voltage, short LED, open LED and thermal
shut-down protection.
