Demo Board for MCP1630 Boost Mode LED Driver
The MCP1630 Boost Mode LED Driver Demo Board is a step-up, switch-mode, dc-dc converter used for power LED applications. The demo board provides a 350 mA or 700 mA constant current source with a jumper selection. The input operating voltage range is 9VDC – 16VDC and the board can supply up to 30W to a string of power LEDs.
The MCP1630 is a high-speed Pulse Width Modulator (PWM) used to develop intelligent power systems. When used with a microcontroller, the MCP1630 will control the power system duty cycle to provide output voltage or current regulation. The MCP1630 inputs are designed to be easily attached to the I/O of a microcontroller, which supplies the reference and oscillator to the MCP1630, to generate a flexible and adaptable power system.
Applications: Intelligent Power Systems, Smart Battery Charger Applications, Multiple Output/Multiple Phase Converters, Output Voltage Calibration, AC Power Factor Correction, VID Capability (programmed and calibrated by PIC ® microcontroller), Buck/Boost/Buck-Boost/SEPIC/Flyback/Isolated Converters, Parallel Power Supplies
