The Supertex HV835 is a high voltage driver designed for driving two EL lamps with a combined area of 3.5 square inches. The input supply voltage range is from 2.0V to 5.8V. The device is designed to reduce the amount of audible noise emitted by the lamp. This device uses a single inductor and a minimum number of passive components to drive two EL lamps. The nominal regulated output voltage of 80V is applied to the EL lamps. The two EL lamps can be turned ON and OFF by the two logic input control pins, C1 and C2. The device is disabled when both C1 and C2 (pins 1 and 4) are at logic low.
