MP3336AGC-P

LED Driver IC Overview

The MP3336AGC-P is a dual-channel flash LED driver IC from Monolithic Power Systems, designed for mobile photography applications. It features a synchronous boost topology with an input voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V and supports switch frequencies of 1MHz, 2MHz, 3MHz, or 4MHz. Each channel delivers up to 2A in flash mode with ±7% accuracy. The device includes I2C control, multiple operating modes (flash, auxiliary, flashlight, indicator, 5V DC), and comprehensive protection mechanisms including OVP, OTP, UVLO, and short/open circuit protection. It is housed in a WLCSP-20 package measuring 1.6mm x 2.0mm.

LED Driver IC Feature Summary

• Dual-channel architecture with independent EN1 pin for NFC applications

LED Driver IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'GC' and 'P' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm package type and tape/reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with the target I2C address configuration and check for any recent lifecycle status changes such as obsolescence or recommended replacements. Confirm that the WLCSP-20 footprint matches the PCB design guidelines provided in the official documentation.

LED Driver IC Selection Notes

Select this component when designing for dual-flash LED configurations in space-constrained mobile devices. It is suitable for applications requiring precise current regulation up to 2A per channel and flexible switching frequency options to optimize EMI performance. Consider the thermal dissipation capabilities of the WLCSP-20 package and ensure the system power supply can handle the peak current demands during flash operation while maintaining stability within the 2.7V to 5.5V input range.

LED Driver IC Part Context

This part belongs to the MP3336A series of dual-channel flash LED drivers. It shares functional similarities with other MPS LED drivers but is specifically optimized for high-current flash applications in smartphones. The 'AGC' suffix typically denotes specific package and tape/reel variations within the MP3336 family, distinguishing it from single-channel or different pinout variants like the MP3336GC.

LED Driver IC Replacement Considerations

MP3336GC-P and MP3336GC-Z are listed as related or alternative models within the same product line. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility and electrical parameter equivalence before substitution.
