150 mA LED driver in SOT457
8. Application information
Figure 24 shows a typical application circuit for an LED driver. The constant current ensures a
constant brightness in all LEDs. The output current can be adjusted between 10 mA and 150 mA
by connecting resistor Rext. Figures 5 and 15 give a first indication for choosing the external resitor
Rext. The minimum input voltage is given by voltage drop at the LED's VLED and the maximum is
governed by the maximum power dissipation
VLED + Vout, min < VCC < Ptot /Iout + VLED

NCR421U can be used for PWM dimming or on/off function by driving the VEN pin. The enable
voltage depends on the drive current, see Figure 21. Figure 25 shows a typical application
where VEN is driven via a micro directly. To control more than one NCR421U devices by one
microcontroller output, a shift register (for example 74AHC(T)594PW) can be used.

Nexperia
150 mA LED driver in SOT457
To savely drive currents that are above the limits of the NCR42xU, two or more devices can be
parallel connected as illustrated in Figure 26. When choosing the same values for the external
resistors, the drive current splits equally and the capability of handling excess power is doubled.
Both, NCR420U and NCR421U can be used in this configuration.
