Controller IC for Dimmable Offline LED Lamps

Offline LED Driver Provides Smooth Dimming and Maximizes Efficiency

http://www.maxim-ic.com/datasheet/index.mvp/id/7388

XTransMissing[DESCRIPTION]

The MAX16841 is an LED driver for AC line (100V, 120V, 220V, and 230V AC) input lamps. It features proprietary control of the input current, which allows lamps to dim smoothly from full to zero light intensity, while providing active power factor correction. It is a very flexible product that can be used in isolated (e.g., flyback) and nonisolated (e.g., buck) configurations, providing in both cases accurate setting of the output current with no need for opto-couplers.
The constant frequency-control technique of the device allows maximization of the conversion efficiency at both low and high AC line, by operating at the conduction mode that minimizes the total of conduction and switching losses.
The device can be configured for universal input (90V to 264V AC) dimmable applications, allowing the design of an LED lamp that operate and can be dimmed worldwide.
This product can be used without electrolytic capacitors, thus maximizing the lamp lifetime; in this case, the LED current is a rectified sinusoid, with a frequency that is twice the AC line frequency.
The device also features thermal shutdown, current limit, open-LED protection and VCCundervoltage lockout. It operates over the -40°C to 125°C temperature range and is available in an 8-pin SO package.

MAX24288 IEEE 1588 Clock and Packet Timestamper and 1Gbps Parallel-to-Serial MII Converter

MAX24288
IEEE 1588 Clock and Packet Timestamper and 1Gbps Parallel-to-Serial MII Converter


Industry’s First Stand-Alone Timestamper is a Flexible Block That Adds High-Accuracy IEEE 1588 Timing to Any System

The MAX24288 is a flexible, low-cost IEEE 1588 clock and timestamper with an SGMII or 1000BASE-X serial interface and a parallel MII interface that can be configured for GMII, RGMII, or 10/100 MII.

The device provides all required hardware support for high-accuracy time and frequency synchronization using the IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol.

In both the transmit and receive directions 1588 packets are identified and timestamped with high precision.

System software makes use of these timestamps to determine the time offset between the system and its timing master.

Software can then correct any time error by steering the device’s 1588 clock subsystem appropriately.

The device provides the necessary I/O to time-synchronize with a 1588 master elsewhere in the same system or to be the master to which slave components can synchronize.

In addition,

the MAX24288 is a full-featured, gigabit parallel-to-serial MII converter.

It provides full SGMII revision 1.8 compliance and also interfaces directly to 1Gbps 1000BASE-X SFP optical modules.

MAX14585, MAX14585A
Hi-Speed USB and Audio Switches with Negative Signal Capability and High-Voltage-Tolerant VBUS Detection
Small, High-Performance USB Switches Integrate Low Power and High-ESD Protection

The MAX14585/MAX14585A high-ESD-protected double-pole/double-throw (DPDT) switches multiplex Hi-Speed (480Mbps) USB and analog signals such as AC-coupled audio or video.

These devices combine the low on-capacitance (CON) and low on-resistance (RON) necessary for high-performance switching applications in portable electronics and include an internal negative supply to pass audio signals that swing below ground down to -1.8V.

The devices also handle USB low-/full-speed signaling and operate from a 2.7V to 5.5V supply.
The devices feature a VBUS detection input (VB) that can handle voltage up to 28V to automatically switch to the USB signal path upon detection of a valid VBUS signal (VB > VVBDET). In a dead battery situation, the voltage on VB can supply power to the part if VB is greater than 4.5V.

The MAX14585 features internal shunt resistors on the audio path to reduce clicks and pops heard at the output.
The MAX14585/MAX14585A are available in a space-saving, 10-pin, 1.4mm x 1.8mm UTQFN package and operate over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.

MAX9599
Low-Power Programmable Gamma Buffer


Provides a Complete Solution f

or Programmable Reference Voltages for Gamma Correction in Tablet PC Applications

The MAX9599 provides multiple programmable reference voltages for gamma correction in TFT LCDs. Each gamma output comprises a 10-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and high current buffer, which reduces the recovery time of the output voltages when critical levels and patterns are displayed. A precision-programmable internal reference sets the full-scale voltage of the DACs.
The IC contains nonvolatile multiple-time-programmable (MTP) memory to store the reference data and all of the gamma output codes.
The gamma output voltages, the programmable reference, and the nonvolatile memory are all programmed digitally through the 1MHz (fast mode plus) I²C interface.
