MAX8595XETA

LED Driver IC Overview

The MAX8595XETA is a high-efficiency, 36V step-up converter designed for LED lighting applications. It operates from an input voltage range of 2.6 V to 5.5 V and delivers a regulated output current of 25 mA. The device features PWM dimming and constant current control, making it suitable for driving white LEDs. It functions at a switching frequency of 1 MHz and is housed in an 8-pin TDFN package with an exposed pad. The operational temperature range spans from -40°C to +85°C.

LED Driver IC Feature Summary

• Provides constant current regulation for white LED strings
• Supports PWM dimming for brightness control
• Integrates a high-efficiency boost converter topology

LED Driver IC Applications

• LED lighting drivers
• Display backlights
• Portable electronic devices requiring white LED illumination

LED Driver IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (e.g., +T) for tape-and-reel packaging requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official documentation. Check for obsolescence or limited availability notices from Analog Devices. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact electrical specifications required for the design.

LED Driver IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact solution for driving 2 to 9 white LEDs is needed. The 1 MHz switching frequency allows for smaller external passive components. Consider the thermal performance of the TDFN-8 package with an exposed pad for heat dissipation. Verify that the input voltage source remains within the 2.6 V to 5.5 V operating range.

LED Driver IC Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX8595 series of high-efficiency step-up converters. The series is characterized by its ability to drive multiple white LEDs from low-voltage sources. The MAX8595XETA variant specifically supports input voltages up to 5.5 V and includes TA derating options for enhanced reliability under varying thermal conditions.

LED Driver IC Replacement Considerations

The MAX8595ZETA+T is a related variant within the same family. Verify pin compatibility and electrical parameter alignment before substitution. Consult official cross-reference data to ensure functional equivalence.
