ISL98611: High Efficiency Display Power and LED Driver for Smart Phones

The ISL98611 is a high efficiency display power supply and LED driver for small size displays such as smart phones. It integrates a boost regulator, LDO and inverting charge pump that are used to generate regulated positive and negative voltages for display power. It also integrates a boost regulator and 3-channel current sinks for the LED backlight driver. The positive and negative output voltages can be adjusted from ±4.5V up to ±6V.

The ISL98611 extends the battery life of mobile devices by delivering greater than 88% efficiency for the display power function and up to 93% efficiency for the backlight driver when powering 12 LEDs. It reduces PCB area by integrating the two functions into a single IC and by requiring only 8 external components in total.

This product drives backlight LEDs with excellent current matching even at very low LED current (±2.2% down to 1mA and ±2.8% at 50μA), improving the brightness uniformity of LCD displays. It includes analog, PWM and hybrid dimming to maximize LED efficiency while eliminating color shift issues.

The ISL98611 is offered in a 2.33x2.61mm2 WLCSP package and the device is specified for operation across the -40°C to +85°C ambient temperature range.
