MIC2291
1.2A PWM Boost Regulator Photo Flash
LED Driver
General Description
The MIC2291 is a 1.2MHz Pulse Width Modulation (PWM),
boost-switching regulator that is optimized for high-current,
white LED photo
flash
applications. With a guaranteed
switch current of 1.2A, the MIC2291 easily drives a string
of 3 white LEDs in series at 100mA, ensuring a high level
of brightness and eliminating several ballast resistors.
The MIC2291 implements a constant frequency, 1.2MHz
PWM control scheme. The high frequency PWM operation
saves board space by reducing external component sizes.
The added benefit of the constant frequency PWM
scheme, in contrast to variable frequency topologies, is
much lower noise and input ripple injected back to the
battery source.
To optimize efficiency, the feedback voltage is set to only
95mV. This reduces the power dissipation in the current
set resistor, and allows the lowest total output voltage,
hence minimal current draw from the battery.
The MIC2291 is available with 2 levels of over-voltage
protection, 15V, and 34V. This allows designers to choose
the smallest possible external components with the
appropriate voltage ratings for their applications.
The MIC2291 is available in low-profile, Thin SOT23 5-pin
and 8-pin 2mm × 2mm MLF
®
package options. The
MIC2291 has a junction temperature range of –40°C to
+125°C.

Notes:
1. Absolute maximum ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the component may occur. Electrical specifications do not apply when operating
the device outside of its operating ratings. The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the maximum junction temperature, T
J(max)
, the
junction-to-ambient thermal resistance,
θ
JA
, and the ambient temperature, TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation will result in excessive die
temperature, and the regulator will go into thermal shutdown.
2. The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
3. Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precautions recommended. Human body model.
