Enhanced 100 mA Linear
Current Regulator and
Controller for Automotive
Sequenced LED Lighting
The NCV7683 consists of eight linear programmable constant
current sources. The part is designed for use in the regulation and
control of LED based Rear Combination Lamps and blinking
functions for automotive applications. System design with the
NCV7683 allows for two programmed levels for stop (100% Duty
Cycle) and tail illumination (programmable Duty Cycle), or an
optional external PWM control can be implemented.
LED brightness levels are easily programmed (stop is programmed
to the absolute current value, tail is programmed to the duty cycle)
with two external resistors. The use of an optional external ballast FET
allows for power distribution on designs requiring high currents. Set
back power limit reduces the drive current during overvoltage
conditions. This is most useful for low power applications when no
external FET is used.
Sequencing functionality is activated, controlled, and programmed
by individual pins. In addition to programming of the sequence
interval, the device can sequence 8 individual output channels, 4 pairs
of output channels, 2 quad output channels, or all 8 at once (for multi
IC use at high currents).
Enhanced features of this device are a global enable function and
display sequencing.
The device is available in a SSOP−24 package with exposed pad.
