The MAX14515 high-voltage liquid lens driver features a high-voltage differential output controlled through an I²C interface. The MAX14515 uses a charge-pump-based boost converter and integrated H-bridge to provide a compact lens driver solution with minimal external components to achieve a small overall footprint suitable for small space constraints inside camera modules.

The MAX14515 features an 8-bit monotonic DAC with a single differential high-voltage output controlled by a 2-wire I²C interface to set the amplitude. The high-voltage outputs are capable of delivering up to 42V_RMS (min) into a 220pF liquid lens load at 1.0kHz (min).

The MAX14515 also features two power-saving modes (shutdown mode and sleep mode) to minimize power consumption when the device is inactive. Shutdown mode places the device in a low-power state that resets all registers and disables the I²C interface to reduce current below 500nA (max). In sleep mode, the power-on reset circuit remains active. If no activity is detected on the I²C interface, current consumption is less than 3μA.
