Description.
PBL 380 85 is a monolithic integrated circuit for supplying power to an EL (electroluminicent) lamp. This is intended to replace the LCD background illumination system in battery powered handheld equipment with a low power EL- lamp. Especially suitable for mobile phones where current saving is highly important, as background illumination for both LCD and keyboard. Output voltage max. 190V, min. 170V at max.
KEY FEATUREs.
• Minimum number of external components for function: 1 choke, 1 filter-capacitor and 1 resistor.
• Easy adaption to various lamp specifications.
• Easy dimming function by controlling the duty cycle.
• Extensive current saving feature compared with LEDs.
• Power down function <<1µA.
• Supply voltage down to 3V.
• Comes in a 3x3 mm package
• Lights up to 20nF lamp capacitance area depending on lamp parameter nF/cm2.
