Product details

Boost regulator for single-string LED backlight

The Texas Instruments TPS61169DCKR is a current-mode step-up (boost) DC-DC regulator designed to drive a single string of white LEDs for display backlight applications. PWM dimming input allows direct brightness control from a microcontroller or PWM source, eliminating the need for an external DAC or analog dimming circuit.

1.2 MHz switching frequency and inductor selection

The 1.2 MHz switching frequency keeps the inductor small and pushes switching noise above the audible band.

Frequently asked questions

What is the switching frequency of TPS61169?

The switching frequency is 1.2 MHz. This allows small inductor values and keeps switching noise above the audio band.

How many outputs does TPS61169 support?

The TPS61169DCKR has a single output — it drives one LED string. For multi-string backlights, multiple devices or a multi-channel driver would be needed.
