LED driver from Diodes Incorporated increases reliability of high brightness lamp systems
Diodes Incorporated has introduced a multi-topology LED driver IC designed to increase the reliability of high brightness lamps in automotive, industrial and commercial lighting systems. The ZXLD1370 LED driver controller operates in buck, boost and buck-boost modes. It combines patent pending control loops and high-side current sensing to ensure accurate current control of LED strings.
LED backlight driver IC for large displays
The new A8512 from Allegro MicroSystems Europe is a multi-output white LED RGB driver IC for the LED backlighting of large-area LCD monitors and television screens. The new device integrates a scalable-output boost controller operating in constant-frequency current mode control - adjustable between 300 kHz and 1 MHz - driving an external MOSFET. It integrates six internal current sinks each capable of sinking up to 80 mA, which can be combined to...
