Introduction

The STEVAL-ILL059V1 is a high brightness LED array driver evaluation board with diagnostics based on the 

STAP16DPS05

low voltage 16-bit constant current LED sink driver for automotive applications.

The LED driver is configured and controlled through an 8-bit automotive grade STM8A microcontroller via SPI interface. The

A5974D

 automotive grade DC-DC converter provides the necessary voltage and power for all the board functions.

The package includes a GUI that helps you evaluate the features of the LED driver and download your own application firmware
onto the board through the SWIM interface.
