Application Information
Description
The AL5812 is a Linear LED driver and in normal operation has the LEDs connected to the same potential as its V
current by sinking current into to its LED pin see Figure 13.
The LED current is set by the use of an external resistor, R
AL5812 together with current regulator to set the LED current.
The nominal LED current is determined by this equation:
With R
The AL5812 with its 60V capability on its supply pin, V
drive LED chains up to 60V as shown in Figures 13 and 14. The voltage applied to the V
to the LED string. Figure 14 shows where you might control it from a 5-V rail but power the rails from a 12V rail.
High Voltage Operation
An extension of Figure 14 is to derive the power for the AL5812 from the LED chain itself see Figure 15. LED chains greater than 60V can be
driven in this manner as long PWM dimming is not utilized.
The AL5812 can also be used on the high side of the LEDs, see Figure 16. This is a simple way of extending the maximum LED chain voltage,
however, it does increase the minimum system input voltage to:
