STEVAL-ILL026V1

概要

The progress made in the field of LEDs is visible on an almost day-by-day basis. Many high power LEDs are currently on the market, such as 0.7 A and 1 A devices. However, the most commonly used LEDs are those with a current of 0.350 A.

This demonstration board is designed for 350 mA LEDs and is capable of driving three 1 W LEDs in series with high-precision constant current (± 5% tolerance). The design is based on the VIPer22AE, which combines a dedicated current mode PWM controller with a high voltage power MOSFET on the same silicon chip.

The internal control circuit offers a large input voltage range on the V_DD pin, accommodates changes in auxiliary supply voltage, and supports automatic burst mode in low load conditions. The board also features protections against overtemperature, overcurrent and overvoltage conditions.
