General Description

The Supertex HV829A/B are high voltage EL lamp driver integrated circuits designed for driving EL lamps of up to 70nF at 1000Hz. The input supply voltage range is from 2.7V to 5.5V. These devices use a single inductor, a high voltage switching FET and a minimum number of passive components. The HV829A/B will supply the EL lamp with an AC square wave with a peak-to-peak voltage of two times the set regulated DC voltage.
