MP3398EGS-Z

Monolithic Power Systems · LED Drivers · SOIC-16

MP3398EGS-Z from Monolithic Power Systems, in a SOIC-16. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 LED4 input LED string 4 current input, the open-drain output of an internal dimming control switch; connect the LED string 4 cathode to LED4 (80V abs max rating).
2 ISET passive LED current set pin; tie a current-setting resistor from ISET to ground to program the current in each LED string, and do not leave it open.
3 OVP input Output over-voltage protection input; connect a resistor divider from the output to OVP to program the OVP threshold (2.0V typ, 1.9V to 2.1V).
4 OSC passive Switching frequency set; connect a resistor between OSC and GND to set the step-up converter switching frequency (ROSC = 100kΩ gives 382kHz).
5 EN input Enable control input; a voltage greater than 1.5V turns the part on, a voltage less than 0.6V turns it off, and it must not be floated.
6 ISENSE input Current sense input that senses the voltage across the inductor current-sensing resistor for peak-current-mode control and limits inductor current each cycle; tie to GND on a slave IC and do not float.
7 GATE output Step-up converter power switch driver output that drives the external power N-channel MOSFET.
8 VCC power_out Internal 5.9V linear regulator output that supplies the external MOSFET gate driver and internal control circuitry; bypass to GND with a ceramic capacitor.
9 VIN power_in Supply input (4.5V to 33V operating range) that must be bypassed locally.
10 ADIM input Analog brightness control input where LED current amplitude is set by the duty cycle of the PWM signal applied, with an internal 10MΩ and 100pF R-C filter; high level above 1.5V, low level below 0.4V, and pull high (1.5V<VADIM<=5V) if unused.
11 COMP passive Step-up converter compensation pin; connect a ceramic capacitor or a resistor and capacitor from COMP to GND.
12 PWM input PWM brightness control input where average LED current equals ISET x DDIM; high level above 1.5V, low level below 0.4V, weakly pulled to GND internally if floating, and pull high (1.5V<VPWM<=5V) if unused.
13 LED1 input LED string 1 current input, the open-drain output of an internal dimming control switch; connect the LED string 1 cathode to LED1 (80V abs max rating).
14 LED2 input LED string 2 current input, the open-drain output of an internal dimming control switch; connect the LED string 2 cathode to LED2 (80V abs max rating).
15 GND power_in Ground.
16 LED3 input LED string 3 current input, the open-drain output of an internal dimming control switch; connect the LED string 3 cathode to LED3 (80V abs max rating).
