NCL30160
1.0A Constant-Current
Buck Regulator for Driving
High Power LEDs
The NCL30160 is an NFET hysteretic stepdown, constantcurrent
driver for high power LEDs. Ideal for automotive, industrial and
general lighting applications utilizing minimal external components.
The NCL30160 operates with an input voltage range from 6.3 V to
40 V. The hysteretic control gives good power supply rejection and
fast response during load transients and PWM dimming to LED arrays
of varying number and type. A dedicated PWM input (DIM/EN)
enables wide range of pulsed dimming and a high switching frequency
up to 1.4 MHz allows the use of smaller external components
minimizing space and cost. Protection features include
resistorprogrammed constant LED current, shorted LED protection,
undervoltage and thermal shutdown. The NCL30160 is available in a
SOIC8 package.

PIN FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
Pin Pin Name Description Application Information
1, 2 CS Current Sense feedback pin Set the current through the LED array by connecting a resistor from this pin to
ground.
3 GND Ground Pin Ground. Reference point for all voltages
4 VCC Output of Internal 5 V linear
regulator
The VCC pin supplies the power to the internal circuitry. The VCC is the
output of a linear regulator which is powered from VIN. A 2 uF ceramic
capacitor is recommended for bypassing and should be placed as close as
possible to the VCC and AGND pins. Do not connect to an external load.
5 ROT OffTime Setting Resistor Resistor ROT from this pin to VCC sets the OffTime range for the hysteretic
controller.
6 DIM/EN PWM Dimming Control &
ENABLE
Connect a logiclevel PWM signal to this pin to enable/disable the power
MOSFET and LED array
7 VIN Input Voltage Pin Nominal operating input range is 6.3 V to 40 V. Input supply pin to the internal
circuitry and the positive input to the current sense comparators. Due high
frequency noise, a 10 mF ceramic capacitor is recommended to be placed as
close as possible to VIN and power ground.
8 LX Drain of Internal Power
MOSFET
The LX pin connects to the inductor and provides the switching current
necessary to operate in hysteretic mode.
