Product details

Six-channel boost regulator for LCD backlight

It integrates six current-sink channels, each rated for 25 mA, and delivers a regulated output voltage up to 38 V from a 5 V to 24 V input supply. PWM dimming is handled on-chip, so the backlight brightness can be controlled directly from a display controller or PWM source without an external dimming switch.

Output voltage ceiling and string configuration

The 38 V maximum output voltage sets the practical series LED string length. Each of the six channels regulates its own 25 mA current sink independently.

For dual-source planning, the LM2703MF-ADJ/NOPB is a single-channel boost regulator in the same DC-DC regulator class, but its 350 mA output and single channel serve a different LED string topology — it is not a pin-compatible drop-in for the six-channel TPS61181RTER.

Frequently asked questions

Does the TPS61181RTER have internal switches?

Yes, the boost switch is integrated internally. The external BOM is limited to the inductor, capacitors, current-set resistor, and LED strings.

Is there a direct replacement for TPS61181RTER?

The LM2703MF-ADJ/NOPB is a single-channel boost regulator in the same DC-DC regulator class, but it delivers 350 mA on one output — not a pin-compatible or functional replacement for the six-channel, 25 mA per channel TPS61181RTER.
