60V, 150mA ADJUSTABLE LINEAR LED DRIVER
Description
The AL5812 is an adjustable Linear LED driver offering excellent
temperature stability and output handling capability. The AL5812
simplifies the design of linear and isolated or non-isolated LED
drivers by setting the LED current with standard value resistors.
The AL5812 has an open drain output that can swing from 1V up to
60V enabling it drive long LED chains. Its low 0.5V R
SET
pin is outside
of the LED current path and so accuracy is maintained while
minimizing the required overheads to regulate the LED current. This
reduces its power dissipation when compared to traditional linear
LED drivers. This makes it ideal for driving LEDs up to 150mA
(commonly referred to as ½W LEDs).
Longer LED chains can be driven by tapping V
CC
from the chain,
where the chain voltage may exceed 60V.
The AL5812 is available in the exposed pad MSOP-8EP and
U-DFN3030-6 packages.

Caution: Stresses greater than the 'Absolute Maximum Ratings' specified above, may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only;
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions exceeding those indicated in this specification is not implied. Device reliability may be
affected by exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods of time.
Semiconductor devices are ESD sensitive and may be damaged by exposure to ESD events. Suitable ESD precautions should be taken when
handling and transporting these devices.
