Driving White LED's

["Bricknell, Tony" <tony.bricknell@xxxxxxx>]

Not that I was part of the bulk buy (in the interests of paying the
mortgage
you've got to let some (most?) of these pass you by!), but I found this
interesting IC on the Maxim web site

http://www.maxim-ic.com/quick_view2.cfm?qv_pk=3553

Only available in Surface Mount, it drives up to five white LED's,
current-matching each one to ensure close output brightness matching. 
And
it dim's!

Runs from 5V, with a two-bit input determining Off, 1/3, 2/3, or Full
brightness.

Dimmable skirting board / stairs lighting?  Certainly got me
thinking...
