RGB LED kit enables LED intensity, color

The TPS62260LED wireless remote-control RGB LED design kit plus eZ430-RF2500 development tool completes a fully supported platform to design color lighting innovations for consumer, commercial, professional, and architectural applications. The TPS62260LED board controls the color and brightness of a lamp or runs an automatic color light animation program. Designers generate color with the three OSRAM high-brightness LEDs (red, green, and blue).

An MSP430F2131 ultra-low-power MCU controls the brightness of each LED with constant current generated by three TPS62260 LED drivers, one for each LED. The design module is also pin compatible with the TPS62240 buck converters for lower-current LED applications, such as indoor ambient lighting, and the TPS62290 for higher-current LED applications, such as wall washing. Designers can use wireless communication by using the eZ430-RF2500 development tool, which plugs directly onto the TPS62260LED board. (TPS62260LED board with MSP430 microcontroller, plus board documentation, $19; eZ430-RF2500, $49—available now.)
