MP3302 is a boost converter IC specifically designed for LED drive applications. The MP3302 can drive 27 LEDs (9 strings of 3 white LEDs in series) from a Lithium ion battery. The IC has internal power MOSFETs for driving the LEDs and has an efficiency of 88%. Switching frequency is 1. 3MHz and the internal current limit is 1. 33A. Other features of

the MP3302 are open load shut down, thermal shut down, under voltage lock out etc. Applications of Mp3302 are LED back lights, LED based lighting gadgets etc. Functional block diagram of the MP3302 is shown below (Fig1). The IC uses a constant current, peak current mode step up regulator scheme for regulating the current through the LEDs. At thebeginning of each oscillator cycle, the control circuitry switches the power MOSFET ON. For preventing sub harmonic oscillation, a stabilizing ramp signal is added to the current sense amplifiers output and the resultant signal is given to the non inverting input of the PWM comparator. When this resultant voltageis equal to the voltage at the PWM comparator`s inverting input (output voltage of the error amplifier), the power MOSFET is switched OFF. The error amplifier`s output is the difference between the feedback voltage and the reference voltage. When the output voltage drops, the feedback voltage also drops and this in increases the output of the error amplifier. This in turn increases duty cycle of the power MOSFET drive signal produced by the control circuitry which increase the duty cycle of the power MOSFET, it conducts more current and the output voltage is regulated. Circuit diagram of a 27 LED driver circuit using MP3302 is shown below (Fig 2). C1 is the input bypass capacitor and C2 is the output bypass capacitor. Resistor R1 is the feedback resistor and it controls the...
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
