CL8800 Overview
The CL8800 is designed to drive a long string of inexpensive, low current LEDs directly from the AC mains. A basic driver circuit consists of the CL8800, six resistors, and a bridge rectifier. Two to four additional ponents are optional for various levels of transient protection.
CL8800 Key Features
- Minimal ponent count (base config: CL8800 + 6 resistors + diode bridge)
- No magnetics, no capacitors -- Up to 7.5W output (13W w/ heat sink) -- >110Lm/W using efficient LEDs -- 85% typical elec
