Targeting rapid LED-current transients as high as 20A/msec and 30-kHz dimming frequency, the MAX16818 LED-driver controller aims at projection and lighting applications. Average current-mode control, synchronous gate-drive circuitry, and a wide switching-frequency range allow the device to drive high-power LEDs in light sources including projectors, home-theater systems, rear-projection TVs, and automotive and industrial lighting fixtures. Available in a 5×5×0.8-mm TQFN-28 package, the MAX16818ETE+ costs $1.82.
