General Description

The  HV9912  is  a  current  mode  control  LED  driver  IC  designed to control single switch PWM converters (buck, boost, buck-boost or SEPIC) in a constant frequency mode. The controller uses a peak  current-mode  control  scheme  with  programmable  slope compensation and includes an internal transconductance amplifier

to control the output current in closed loop enabling high output current accuracy (in the case of buck and buck-boost converters, the output current can be sensed using a high side current sensor like the HV7800).
