POWER: LED drivers bring smaller footprint, energy savings to lighting applications



eeProductCenter
Dallas, Tex.—Diodes Inc. has expanded its Zetex LED driver series with the introduction of three new miniature LED drivers that improve accuracy and thermal performance.

Provided in TSOT23-5 and thermally enhanced DFN6, the highly integrated ZXLD-1352, -1356 and "1366 deliver adjustable output currents of 350mA, 550mA and 1A, respectively, need the support of just three discrete external components, and suit a broad range of automotive, architectural and industrial lighting applications.

The ZXLD drivers are continuous mode, inductive step-down converters, specifically designed for driving single or multiple high brightness LEDs, and characterized by their ease of configuration and operation. Nominal output current, set by a resistor, is easily adjusted by applying a PWM or DC voltage control signal, and allows precise matching of brightness requirements. A low-level control signal turns the output off and puts the driver into standby.

The ZXLD1356 and ZXLD1366 provide an output current accuracy of typically better than 1%, providing users with highly precise current matching at working voltages up to 60V. Capable of producing output powers of 30W and 48W respectively, the TSOT23-5/DFN63, 3mm x 3mm packaged drivers support up to 15 LEDs, and an array of applications requiring minimum footprint and maximum efficiency.

The ZXLD1352 operates from a 7V to 30V supply, and is capable of producing an output current of up to 350mA. This TSOT23-5, 2.8mm x 2.9mm packaged driver provides up to 8W of power for driving chains of up to 10 LEDs. With a large PWM dimming ratio of 1000:1, the driver offers highly flexible brightness control and accurate color mixing.

Pricing: At 1,000-piece quantities, the ZXLD1352 (TSOT23-5) is priced at $0.98, the ZXLD1356 at $1.32 and $1.40 respectively for TSOT23-5 and DFN6 variants, and the ZXLD1366 at $1.82 and $1.92 respectively for the same package options.
Availability: Now from authorized distributors; delivery is four to six weeks in production volumes.
