About this manual

The BD1604MUV is a 4‑channel white LED driver designed for small LCD backlights. It uses a charge‑pump architecture to minimise external components and provides up to 120 mA total LED current (30 mA per channel) with high efficiency (≥90 %).

The device includes LED on/off control pins, 3 % current matching accuracy, and protection functions such as output‑voltage protection, current overload limiter and thermal shutdown. Pin‑out diagrams, recommended circuit examples, layout guidelines, electrical characteristics and ordering information are provided.

Frequently asked questions

What is the maximum LED current per channel?

Each LED channel can be driven up to 30 mA, giving a total of 120 mA for the four channels.

How can the LED current be controlled?

LED current can be set by an external resistance on the ISET pin or by applying a PWM signal to the EN pin.

What protection functions are built into the driver?

The device includes output‑voltage protection, a current overload limiter, and a thermal‑shutdown circuit.

What is the recommended operating supply voltage range?

The driver is specified for a supply voltage between 2.7 V and 5.5 V.
