Description
L99LD01 is a complete constant current DC-DC
converter LED driver, manufactured in a BCD5S
70 V technology and assembled in a LQFP32
package.
The device is designed to be used in boost, buckboost and fly back converter topologies. An
internal random dither oscillator works in low
frequency modulation, allowing spreading the RF
spectrum of the switching frequency, so reducing
EMC emissions. The slope compensation
ensures good converter loop stability whatever is
the duty cycle needed by the application.
The converter is able to work either in full power
mode or in low frequency dimming mode.
The device includes an internal low drop voltage
regulator, that can be used to supply a
microcontroller, and a reset pin, that is useful for
resetting the microcontroller at the start up and
every time that the regulated output voltage falls
down below an established voltage threshold.
