The FAN5611/FAN5612/FAN5613/FAN5614 driver family
provides matched current source bias for white, blue or any
color LEDs. The current in the LEDs can be programmed by
an external resistor. The individual LED currents are 200 x
ISET, where ISET is the current through the external resistor
connected to the CTRL pin. The FAN5611 and the FAN5613
are capable of driving four LEDs, while the FAN5612 can
drive three LEDs. The FAN5614 is designated to drive two
high current LEDs. In any case, at least I1 should be always
connected to an LED in order to have the other LEDs driven
with a matched current to I1.
The FAN5612, FAN5613 and FAN5614 have Enable pin.
When these devices are disabled, the supply current drops to
less than 1µA.
The FAN5611, FAN5612 and FAN5614 drivers are available
in a 6-lead SC-70 package. The FAN5613 is available in an
8-lead MLP package.

Application Information
Application Notes
Setting the LED Current
The ultra-low voltage drop across the FAN561X series of
LED drivers, allow the devices to drive white, blue, and
other color LEDs in a wide range of input voltages. The
driver can be used in many applications. Although, only
the FAN5613 is shown in all three examples, any of
the FAN561X series of LED drivers can be used in the
applications presented in this document, due to their
similar operation.
The current flowing into LEDs is approximately 200 times
greater then the current ISET. The LED current is controlled
by VCONTROL and RSET according to the formula:
I LED = 200 × ( V CONTROL – V CTRL ) ⁄ R SET
For VCONTROL = 3V and a specified LED current, the RSET
value can be evaluated using the diagram shown in the Typical Performance Characteristics section. For any other
option, ISET value can be determined using the graph ISET
vs. VCTRL. The LED’s brightness can also be adjusted by
driving ENABLE or the CTRL pin with a PWM signal. The
driving signal frequency should be greater than 100Hz to
avoid flickering, increasing to more than 1MHz, if necessary.
LEDs are very sensitive to temperature. In most cases the
maximum allowed junction temperature is 100°C. This temperature is the result of adding to the ambient temperature
the over temperature due to power dissipation, is described
by as follows:
Example 1: Drive low VF white or blue LEDs
directly from single cell Li-ion
When using white or blue low VF LEDs, and utilizing the
drivers low voltage drop, only 3.4V in VIN is needed for the
full 20mA LED current. At 3.1V, there is still 5mA typical
current available for the LEDs. The single cell Li-ion is
utilized in most applications like cell phones or digital still
cameras. In most cases, the Li-ion battery voltage level only
goes down to 3.0V voltage level, and not down to the full
discharge level (2.7V) before requesting the charger.
VIN
T j = T A + Θ jA × I × V F
where Tj is the LED junction temperature, TA is the ambient
temperature, ΘjA is the junction to ambient thermal resistance, I is the LED current and VF is the LED forward
voltage.

The FAN5611 to FAN5614 are designed to reduce the
current through LEDs, when the temperature rises and the
cathode voltage increases, as can be seen from typical the
"LED Current vs. LED Cathode Voltage" graph under the
Typical Performance Characteristics section.
Efficiency Considerations
The FAN561X driver’s low dropout architecture can significantly improve the efficiency compared to using simple
ballast resistors. The system efficiency, defined as the ratio
between the LEDs power and the input supplied power can
be calculated as follows:
Efficiency = ( V IN – V CATHODE ) ⁄ V IN
The lower the VCATHODE, the higher the system efficiency.
Efficiency can be further improved using a higher VIN with
more LEDs as shown in example 3.

VDROP < 0.3V
VF (at 20mA) < 3.1V (Low VF)
VIN (at 20mA) =VDROP + VF = 3.4V
VIN (at 5mA Typical) ~ 3.1V
Where VIN = Single cell Li-ion Voltage
Key advantages:
• No boost circuit needed for the LCD or keyboard
backlight
• Drivers directly connected to a Li-ion battery
• No EMI, no switching noise, no boost efficiency lost, no
capacitor, and no inductor.
Example 2: Drive high VF white or blue LEDs
from existing bus from 4.0V to 5.5V
High VF white or blue LEDs have forward voltage drop in
the range of 3.2V to 4.0V. To drive these LEDs with the
maximum current of 20mA for maximum brightness, usually
requires a boost circuit for a single cell Li-ion voltage range.

In some cases, there is already a voltage bus in the system,
which can be utilized. Due to the ultra-low voltage drop of
the FAN561X series of LED drivers to drive high VF white
or blue LEDs. The VIN needs to be only 300mV higher than
the highest VF in the circuit.

LED Brightness Control
All of the FAN561X LED Drivers feature analog and PWM
controls to give designers flexible brightness control. These
control methods can be applied to the circuit in two different
ways, to provide more flexibility than any other solution. To
determine the value of RSET, use the “ISET vs. VCTRL” graph
under the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
