The advantages towards resistor biasing are: homogenous light output despite varying forward voltages in different LED strings homogenous light output of LEDs despite voltage drop across long supply lines homogenous light output independent from supply voltage variations longer lifetime of the LEDs due to reduced output current at higher temperatures (negative thermal coefficient) The advantages towards discrete solutions are: lower assembly cost smaller form factor better quality due to less soldering points higher output current accuracy due to pretested LED drivers Dimming is possible by using an external digital transistor at the ground pin. The BCR405U can be operated at higher supply voltages by putting LEDs between the power supply +VS and the power supply pin of the LED driver. You can find further details in the application note AN097. The BCR405U is a perfect fit for numerous low power LED applications by combining small form factor with low cost. These LED drivers offer several advantages to resistors like significantly higher current control at very low voltage drop ensuring high lifetime of LEDs. 2009-07-31 1BCR405U Pin Configuration Typical Application +Vs BCR405U BCR 405U 4 GND 1 6 Rext Rext Vdrop (optional) 6 Out 2 5 Out Out 3 4 Vs 1 2,3,5 Is Iout Type Marking Pin Configuration Package BCR405U L5s 1 = GND 2 3 5 = I 4 = V 6 = R SC74 out S ext Maximum Ratings Parameter Symbol Value Unit Supply voltage V 40 V S Output current I 65 mA out 38 V Output voltage V out Reverse voltage between all terminals V 0.5 R P 750 mW Total power dissipation, T 125 C tot S Junction temperature T 150 C j Storage temperature T -65 ... 150 stg Thermal Resistance Parameter Symbol Value Unit 1) R 50 K/W Junction - soldering point thJS 1 For calculation of R please refer to Application Note Thermal Resistance thJA 2009-07-31 2
