AP8802

AP8802 1A LED Step-down Converter Features • • • • • • • • LED driving current up to 1A High efficiency up to 92% Operating input voltage up to 48V High switching frequency up to 500kHz PWM/DC input for dimming control Built-in output open-circuit protection SOP-8L, SOP-8L-EP and DFN3030-10 are available in “Green” Molding Compound (No Br, Sb) Lead Free Finish/ RoHS Compliant (Note 1) General Description The AP8802 is a step-down DC/DC converter designed to drive LEDs with a constant current. The device can drive up to thirteen LEDs, depending on the forward voltage of the LEDs, in series from a voltage source of 8V to 48V. Series connection of the LEDs provides identical LED currents resulting in uniform brightness and eliminating the need for ballast resistors. The AP8802 switches at frequency up to 500kHz. This allows the use of small size external components, hence minimizing the PCB area needed. Maximum output current of AP8802 is set via an external resistor connected between the VIN and SET input pins. Dimming is achieved by applying either a DC voltage or a PWM signal at the CTRL input pin. An input voltage of 0.2V or lower at CTRL shuts down the output at SW and puts the device into a low-current standby state.

Dimming and On/Off Control Input. Input voltage of 0.2V or lower forces the device into low current standby mode and shuts off the output. A PWM signal allows the output current to be adjusted above or below the level set by the resistor connected to SET input pin. The input impedance is about 50kΩ, and if the pin is left open VCTRL = VREF Input Supply Pin. Must be locally bypassed.

For most applications the LED current will be within 8% over the duty cycle range specified. Duty cycle accuracy is also dependent on propagation delay. Smaller size inductors can be used but LED current accuracy may be greater than 8% at extremes of duty cycle. This is most noticeable at low duty cycles (less than 0.1) or when the input voltage is high and only one LED is being driven.
