The MAX8821 integrates a charge pump for white LEDs, an audio loudspeaker amplifier, and two lownoise LDOs controlled by an I2C control interface. The high-efficiency, adaptive-mode inverting charge pump drives up to six LEDs with constant current for uniform brightness. The LED current is controlled by an I2C interface and adjusts from 0.1mA to 25.6mA per LED into 32 pseudo-logarithmic steps. Independent voltages for each LED maximize efficiency even with large LED forward voltage (VF) mismatch. An internal temperature derating function reduces the current above +40C to protect the LEDs.
