1 Description
This user's guide describes the specifications, board connection description, characteristics, operation, and use
of the
, dual 1.6-A synchronous buck LED driver evaluation module (EVM). The
device implements an adaptive on-time average current mode control and is designed to be compatible with
shunt FET dimming techniques and LED matrix manager-based dynamic beam headlamps. The adaptive on-
time control provides near constant switching frequency that can be set between 100 kHz and 2.2 MHz. Inductor
current sensing and closed-loop feedback enables better than ±4% accuracy over wide input voltage, output
voltage and ambient temperature range.
Additional features include wide input voltage range (4.5 V to 65 V), programmable switching frequency,
programmable analog and PWM dimming techniques, advanced SPI programmable diagnostic and fault
protection featuring: cycle-by-cycle switch current limit, bootstrap undervoltage, LED open, LED short, thermal
warning and thermal shutdown. An onboard 10-bit ADC samples critical input parameters required for system
health monitoring and diagnostics. Complete schematic diagrams, printed circuit board layouts, and bill of
materials are included in this document.
1.1 Typical Applications
This document outlines the operation and implementation of the
constant current (CC) LED driver with the specifications listed in
. For applications with a different input
voltage range or different output voltage range, see the
