19-4032; Rev 1; 7/09 KIT ATION EVALU E L B AVAILA High-Voltage, 100mA/200mA Adjustable Linear High-Brightness LED Drivers with PWM Dimming The MAX16815/MAX16828 current regulators operate from a 6.5V to 40V input voltage range and deliver up to 100mA (MAX16815) or 200mA (MAX16828) to highbrightness LED (HB LED) loads. The output current is adjusted by using an external current-sense resistor in series with the LEDs. The MAX16815/MAX16828's dimming input allows wide-range "pulsed" PWM operation. An on-board pass element minimizes external components while providing 3.5% output-current accuracy. The MAX16815/MAX16828 are available in a thermally enhanced, 3mm x 3mm, 6-pin TDFN package with exposed pad and in an 8-pin SO package with exposed pad; they are specified over the automotive -40C to +125C temperature range.

Connect a 0.1F compensation capacitor from V5 to ground. Shorting V5 to ground disables the thermal shutdown. V5 stays on during PWM dimming. The MAX16815/MAX16828 use a sense resistor across CS+ and GND for the TDFN package or across CS+ and CS- for the SO package, to set the LED current. The LED current is given by ILED = VRSNS/RSENSE. Thermal Protection The MAX16815/MAX16828 enter a thermal-shutdown mode in the event of overheating. This typically occurs in overload or output short-circuit conditions. If the junction temperature exceeds TJ = +159C (typ), the internal thermal-protection circuitry turns off the series pass device. The MAX16815/MAX16828 recover from thermal-shutdown mode once the junction temperature drops by 24C (typ). The devices therefore protect themselves by thermal cycling in the event of a shortcircuit or overload condition. Shorting V5 to ground disables the thermal shutdown. Input-Voltage Considerations For proper operation, the minimum input voltage must always be: VIN(MIN) VRSNS(MAX) + VFT(MAX) + VDO(MAX) where VFT(MAX) is the total forward voltage of all series connected LEDs. The minimum operating voltage of the device is +6.5V. The device operates below +6.5V; however, output current may not meet the full regulation specification (see the Typical Operating Characteristics) and the V5 regulator will drop below 5V. Low-Frequency PWM Dimming at the Output Provide a pulse to the dimming input (DIM) of the MAX16815/MAX16828 to produce a PWM output. Alternatively, connect DIM to IN and pulse IN. _______________________________________________________________________________________ 7 MAX16815/MAX16828 SO Functional Diagram MAX16815/MAX16828 High-Voltage, 100mA/200mA Adjustable Linear High-Brightness LED Drivers with PWM Dimming D1 STOP D2 IN TAIL OUT R1 MAX16815 MAX16828 R2 D3 IN DIS C1 LEDs +5V REG C2 D4 DIM OUT R3 V5 CS+ ICM7555 TH TRG GND R4* RSENSE GND CS- C2 *R4 < 300k Figure 1. PWM Dimming Operation with ICM7555 Timer Two Brightness Levels for TAIL/STOP Lights Figure 1 shows PWM dimming operation for the MAX16815/MAX16828 with an ICM7555 timer. The ICM7555 provides adjustable duty cycle using two external resistors and a capacitor. In TAIL operation, the output of the ICM7555 feeds into DIM and lights up the LEDs. The LED's brightness depends on the duty cycle of the ICM7555. When VSTOP is present, DIM is pulled up to VSTOP. The PWM dimming operation is disabled and the LEDs light up to full brightness. See the ICM7555 data sheet for formulas to calculate the dimming frequency and the duty cycle.

Figure 2 shows a thermistor connected to V5 and the CS+ of the MAX16815/MAX16828. As the temperature increases, the voltage drop across R2 increases, causing the LED current to decrease.
