Catalyst CAT3644 LED Driver Datasheet
The CAT3644 is a 4‑channel ultra‑high‑efficiency Quad‑Mode™ LED driver that can drive up to four LEDs at 25 mA each. It features a 1‑wire EZDim™ digital dimming interface, low‑noise input ripple, soft‑start, short‑circuit and thermal‑shutdown protection, and a “zero” current shutdown mode. The device is offered in a compact 3 mm × 3 mm 16‑pad TQFN package.
Typical applications include LCD backlights, cellular phones, digital still cameras, and other handheld devices. The datasheet provides absolute maximum ratings, recommended operating conditions, pin descriptions, timing diagrams, and extensive performance graphs covering efficiency, quiescent current, and output characteristics over voltage and temperature ranges.
