ZXLD1362 DEVICE DESCRIPTION 
 

The ZXLD1362 is a continuous mode inductive driver in a TSOT23-5 package, for driving one or more series 
connected LEDs efficiently from a voltage source higher than the LED voltage.  The device includes the output 
switch and a current sense circuit, which requires an external sense resistor to set the nominal current up to 
1000mA.  
 

ZXLD1362 DEVICE FEATURES

Description 

LX 

Drain of NDMOS switch. 

GND 2 

Ground 

(0V). 

ADJ 

Internal voltage ref. pin (1.25V) : 

 

Leave floating for normal operation. 

 

Connect to GND to turn off output current. 

 

Drive with a DC voltage (0.3V to 1.25V) or with a PWM signal to adjust 
output current 

 

Connect a capacitor from this pin to ground to set the soft-start time. 

ISENSE 

Connect a sense resistor, Rs,

 

from the ADJ pin to VIN to sense the nominal 

output current. Nominal I

out

 = 0.1/ R1

Input voltage: 7V to 60V. Decouple to ground with a 100nF and a  10uF or 
higher ceramic capacitor depending on the input voltage[1].
