NCV7691/D
NCV7691
Current Controller for
Automotive LED Lamps
The NCV7691 is a device which uses an external NPN bipolar
device combined with feedback resistor(s) to regulate a current for use
in driving LEDs. The target application for this device is automotive
rear combination lamps. A single driver gives the user flexibility to
add single channels to multichannel systems. A dedicated dimming
feature is included via the PWM input pin. The individual driver is
turned off when an open load or short circuit is detected.
LED brightness levels are easily programmed using an external
resistor in series with the bipolar transistor. The use of the resistor
gives the user the flexibility to use the device over a wide range of
currents.
Multiple strings of LEDs can be operated with a single NCV7691
device.
Set back power limit reduces the drive current during overvoltage
conditions.
The device is available in a SOIC−8 package.
