MP3801DH-LF

Lighting, Ballast Controllers Overview

The MP3801DH-LF is a high-voltage electroluminescent (EL) lamp driver IC from Monolithic Power Systems. It operates on a boost topology with a single output channel in an MSOP-8 package. The device accepts an input voltage range of 2.5 V to 5.5 V and generates an output voltage of 95 V. It functions at a working frequency of 240 Hz, suitable for driving EL lamps within an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Lighting, Ballast Controllers Feature Summary

• Integrated high-voltage driver specifically designed for electroluminescent lamp applications
• Utilizes boost topology to step up low input voltages to required drive levels
• Single-channel configuration simplifies circuit design for individual lamp control

Lighting, Ballast Controllers Applications

• Electroluminescent (EL) lamp drivers
• High voltage backlighting systems
• Industrial indicator lighting

Lighting, Ballast Controllers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official datasheets, as variations like LF-P may exist. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly from manufacturer documentation. Ensure the MSOP-8 package matches your PCB footprint requirements. Check current availability through authorized distributors, as supply status can vary by region and time.

Lighting, Ballast Controllers Selection Notes

Select this component when a dedicated solution for driving EL lamps is required. The fixed 240 Hz frequency suits standard EL panel operations. Ensure the input power supply stays within the 2.5 V to 5.5 V range. Consider thermal management for the MSOP-8 package if ambient temperatures approach the upper limit of 85°C.
