High-Voltage, 100mA/200mA Adjustable Linear
High-Brightness LED Drivers with PWM Dimming
Figure 1 shows PWM dimming operation for the
MAX16815/MAX16828 with an ICM7555 timer. The
ICM7555 provides adjustable duty cycle using two
external resistors and a capacitor. In TAIL operation,
the output of the ICM7555 feeds into DIM and lights up
the LEDs. The LED’s brightness depends on the duty
cycle of the ICM7555. When V
pulled up to V
abled and the LEDs light up to full brightness. See the
ICM7555 data sheet for formulas to calculate the dim-
ming frequency and the duty cycle.
With a minimum number of external components, the
MAX16815/MAX16828 provide LED current thermal
foldback using a negative temperature coefficient
(NTC) thermistor. Figure 2 shows a thermistor connect-
ed to V5 and the CS+ of the MAX16815/MAX16828. As
the temperature increases, the voltage drop across R2
increases, causing the LED current to decrease.
The application circuit in Figure 3 implements a two-
level brightness current for TAIL/STOP lights. In TAIL
operation, Q1 is off and R1 sets the output current. In
