TPS61310EVM-638 Evaluation Module User Guide
This user's guide describes the characteristics, functions, and use of the TPS61310EVM-638 Evaluation
Module (EVM). This EVM demonstrates the Texas Instruments TPS61310 LED camera flash and video
light driver with I2C interface. This document includes setup instructions, a schematic diagram, a bill of
materials and PCB layout drawings for the EVM.
1 INTRODUCTION
The TPS61310 is an integrated system with a broad feature set for driving up to three LEDs for
still-camera flash and video-camera lighting applications. The power stage is capable of supplying a
maximum total current of up to 1600mA (2x400mA for LED1 and LED3, 800mA for LED2).
The device operates as an single, dual or triple channel LED driver generating the required LED forward
voltages. The internal step-up converter boosts the input voltage adjusted to the required LED forward
voltage and controls the LED current with the integrated current sinks.
The internal step-up converter can be used for further applications as well, such as supplying an audio
amplifier.
All functions and feature sets can be either addressed by dedicated hardware pins or with the I
interface.
