Abstract:Although many LED-driver ICs operate at relatively low voltage, you can operate at higher voltage and thereby drive
multiple LEDs in series, by adding a common-base-transistor level shifter to this IC (MAX6974) as shown.
A similar version of this article appeared in the October 18, 2007 issue of EE Times magazine.
The relatively low operating voltage of many LED-driver ICs prevents them from driving multiple LEDs in series, but you can
circumvent this limitation by adding a common-base-transistor level shifter as shown in Figure 1. NPN transist
