About this manual

The ADP8870 combines a programmable charge‑pump LED driver with automatic phototransistor ambient‑light sensing and a PWM input for content‑adaptive brightness control. It offers up to seven independent LED drivers, programmable current limits, and fade‑in/out timing, enabling significant power savings for mobile displays and keypads.

The device operates from 2.5 V to 5.5 V, includes gain selection of 1×, 1.5×, and 2×, and provides built‑in protections such as short‑circuit, over‑voltage, over‑temperature, soft‑start, and input‑to‑output isolation. Package options include a 2.15 mm × 2.36 mm × 0.6 mm WLCSP and a 4 mm × 4 mm × 0.75 mm LFCSP.

Frequently asked questions

What is the input voltage range for the ADP8870?

The ADP8870 operates from 2.5 V up to 5.5 V, with an undervoltage lockout set at 2.0 V.

How many LED drivers does the ADP8870 provide and what are their current limits?

It provides seven independent LED drivers; six can supply up to 30 mA each and one can supply up to 60 mA.

What safety protections are built into the ADP8870?

The device includes short‑circuit, over‑voltage, over‑temperature protection, an internal soft‑start, and input‑to‑output isolation during faults or shutdown.

Can the ADP8870 be controlled with a PWM input?

Yes, a PWM input can be used to scale LED output current and for content‑adaptive brightness control.
