Applications Information
The RT9300A/B is a 4-Channel current source driver for
white LEDs.
Enable Input
EN powers the input of the RT9300A/B. This IC provides
an under voltage lockout (UVLO) function to prevent it from
unstable issue when startup. The UVLO threshold of input
falling voltage is set at 2.1V typically with a hysteresis
0.1V.Drive EN high to enable the device; drive EN low to
disable the device. When driven high, EN draws 350uA to
power the IC. Driving EN low forces LED1, LED2, LED3,
and LED4 into a high-impedance state.
LED Current
RT9300A/B provides a constant current for white LED.
Figure 1 shows a typical application circuit for 4 white
LEDs. Each channel supports up to 20mA/15mA current
and regulates a constant current for uniform intensity. For
keypad LED application, the all channels must be
connected to LED as shown in Figure 2. In order to maintain
LED constant current, the input voltage must provide the
required LED forward voltage and current source dropout
voltage. If the forward voltage of white LEDs is 3.3V, the
input voltage should be higher than 3.4V to provide enough
voltage headroom for maintaining constant brightness.
LED Brightness Dimming Control
For controlling the LED brightness, the RT9300A/B can
perform the dimming control by applying a PWM signal to
EN pin. When an external PWM signal is connected to
the EN pin, brightness of white LED is adjusted by the
duty cycle. The average LED current is proportional to the
PWM signal duty cycle. The magnitude of the PWM signal
must be higher than the minimum level of enable input
high level, in order to let the dimming control perform
correctly, the suggested PWM frequency range is 10kHz
to 200Hz.
Thermal Considerations
For continuous operation, do not exceed absolute
maximum operation junction temperature 125°C. The
maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal
resistance of IC package, PCB layout, the rate of

be calculated by following formula :
