Marking Information
General Description
The RT8482 is a current mode PWM controller designed
to drive an external MOSFET for high current LED
applications. With a current sense amplifier threshold of
190mV, the LED current is programmable with one
external current sense resistor. With a maximum
operating input voltage of 36V and output voltage up to
48V, the RT8482 is ideal for Buck, Boost or Buck-Boost
operation.
With 350kHz operating frequency, the external inductor
and capacitors can be small while maintaining high
efficiency.
Dimming can be either analog or PWM digital. The unique
built-in clamping comparator and filter allow easy low
noise analog dimming conversion from PWM signal with
only one external capacitor.
The RT8482 is available in WQFN-16L 3x3 and
SOP-16 packages.
Applications
z General Industrial High Power LED Lighting
z Desk Lights and Room Lighting
z Building and Street Lighting
z Industrial Display Backlight
