●Description
●The LM3532 is a 500-kHz fixed frequency asynchronous boost converter which provides the power for 3 high-voltage, low-side current sinks. The device is programmable over an I2C-compatible interface and has independent current control for all three channels. The adaptive current regulation method allows for different LED currents in each current sink thus allowing for a wide variety of backlight and keypad applications.
