APEK6213KLJ-01-MH

• Product introduction

A6213It is a single IC chipSwitching regulators, which provides a constant current output to drive high-power LEDs. It integrates a high-side N-channel DMOS switch for DC-to-DC step-down conversion. The true average current is output by a cycle-by-cycle, controlled on-time method.

An external current sense resistor allows the user to select the output current. The output voltage is automatically adjusted to drive different numbers of LEDs within a single string. This guarantees optimal system efficiency.

LED dimming is accomplished by enabling a direct logic input pulse-width modulation (PWM) signal at the enable pin.

The device is available in a small 8-pin narrow SOIC package (suffix LJ) and is fitted with an exposed heat sink for enhanced heat dissipation. It is packaged as a lead (PB) free product and features 100% matte tin leadframe plating.
