AL8860Q HIGH EFFICIENCY Q40V 1.5A
AUTOMOTIVE GRADE BUCK LED DRIVER
Description
Pin Assignments
The AL8860Q is a hysteresis mode DC-DC step-down LED driver, designed for driving single or multiple series of the connected LEDs efficiently from a voltage source higher than the LED voltage. The device can operate with an input supply voltage from 4.5V to 40V and provide an externally adjustable output current up to 1.5A for MSOP8EP package. Depending upon supply voltage and external components, this converter can provide up to 40W output power.
The AL8860Q integrates the power switch and a high-side output current sensing circuit, which uses an external resistor to set the nominal average output current.
Dimming can be realized by applying an external control signal to the CTRL pin.
