High Efficiency Boost White LED Driver
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MT9201 is a step-up converter designed for
driving up to 7 series white LEDs from a single cell
Lithium Ion battery. The MT9201 uses current
mode, fixed frequency architecture to regulate an
LED current, which is measured through an
external current sense resistor. Its low 200mV
feedback voltage reduces power loss and
improves efficiency.
The MT9201 includes under-voltage lockout,
current limiting and thermal overload protection
preventing damage in the event of an output
overload.
Optimized operation frequency can meet the
requirement of small LC filters value and low
operation current with high efficiency. Internal soft
start function can reduce the inrush current. Tiny
package type provide the best solution for PCB
space saving and total BOM cost.

Description
Inductor Connection. Connect to the switched side of the external
inductor as well as the anode of the external diode. SW is high
impedance during shutdown.
Ground Pin.
Current-Sense Feedback Input. Connect a resistor from FB to GND to set
the LED current: I
LED
=0.2V/R
CS
Enable and LED Brightness Control Input. Pull high to turn on IC.Drive EN
with a 20kHz to 1MHz unfiltered PWM dimming signal for DC LED
current that is proportional to the signal’s duty cycle.
Over Voltage Input.The MT9201 turn off the N-channel MOSFET when
V
OUT
exceeds 28V .Connect OV to the output at the top of the LED string.
Power Supply Input. Must be closely decoupled to GND with a 1µF or
greater ceramic capacitor.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: T
J
is calculated from the ambient temperature T

according to the
following formula: T
J
= T

) x (250°C/W).
Note 3: 100% production test at 25°C. Specifications over the temperature range are guaranteed by design
and characterization.
