CL1A Datasheet | SimpleChips

Description : The CL1A is Simple Chips’ 5-10-15-20 m A temperature-pensated unipolar current regulator. It is designed to be used with voltages from 6V to 250V DC and the temperature coefficient is optimized from - 40C to 125C. Simple Chips’ 5-10-15-20m A unipolar current regulator can source or sink constant current. For high voltage applications a heat sink can be connected to the Ground pin (Source) (pin 2), or the device can be mounted on a larger copper plate used as a heat sink. These devices can be paralleled for larger current drives or connected back-to-back for AC current limiting function. These current regulators can be used for applications with AC or DC such as: - serial LED drivers for industrial lamp indicators, signage, accent lighting, and automotive lighting. - Power limiter in transformer input stage (mounted back to back). - constant current source or sink. - current reference or level translator. - laser diode driver for VCSELs used in Optical Networking.
