The NCV7685 consists of twelve linear programmable constant
current sources with common reference. The part is designed for use in
the regulation and control of LED for automotive applications. The
NCV7685 allows 128 different duty cycle levels adjustable using
pulse width modulation (PWM) independently for each output
channel programmable via I
be chosen in four different configurations up to 1200 Hz. The device
can be used with micro−controller applications using the I
stand−alone applications where a choice could be done in between 2
different static configuration settings. The IC also provides 3.3 V
voltage reference to the application for loads up to 1 mA.
LED brightness level is easily programmed using an external
resistor. Each channel has an internal circuitry to detect open−load
conditions with an optional auto−recovery mode. If one driver is in
open−load condition, all other channels could be turned off according
to the programmable bit setting.
The device is available in small body size SSOP24−EP package.
