High-Voltage, 350mA, Adjustable Linear High-Brightness LED (HB LED) Driver

The MAX16800 current regulator operates from a 6.5V to 40V input voltage range and delivers up to a total of 350mA to one or more strings of high-brightness LEDs. The output current of the MAX16800 is adjusted by using an external current-sense resistor in series with the LEDs.

Suited for automotive and industrial lighting systems, the MAX16800 adjustable linear current regulator can provide up to 350 mA of current to one or more strings of high-brightness LEDs.

Features include an input range from 6.5 to 40 V, a temperatures range from –40° to 125°C, a load accuracy of ±3.5%, and a fixed 5-V output regulator that deliver up to 4 mA of load current and offers thermal and output short-circuit protection.
