.... RT8477 High Voltage High Current LED Driver General Description Features Buck, Boost Constant Current Converter The RT8477 is a current mode PWM controller designed High Voltage : V up to 50V, V up to 50V IN OUT to drive an external MOSFET for high current LED 380kHz Fixed Switching Frequency applications with wide input voltage (4.5V to 50V) and Analog or PWM Control Signal for LED Dimming output voltage (up to 50V) ranges. With internal 380kHz Internal Soft-Start to Avoid Inrush Current operating frequency, the size of the external PWM inductor Under-Voltage Lockout and input/output capacitors can be minimized. High Thermal Shutdown efficiency is achieved by a 100mV current sensing control. RoHS Compliant and Halogen Free LED Dimming control can be done by analog. The RT8477 is now available in the SOP-8 package.

The RT8477 is a current mode PWM controller designed to drive an external MOSFET for high current LED The current through the sense resistor is set by the applications. This device uses a fixed frequency, current- programmed voltage and the sense resistance. The voltage mode control scheme to provide excellent line and load across the sense resistor can be programmed by the regulation. analog or digital signal at the CTL pin with good dimming linearity. The max sense threshold of 100mV can be The control loop has a current sense amplifier which obtained with CTL pin voltage greater than 2V (max senses the voltage between the ISP and ISN pins. dimming point). The sense threshold is intentionally forced A PWM comparator then turns off the external power to zero by an internal comparator when the CTL pin voltage switch when the sensed power switch current exceeds is less than around 0.33V (min dimming point). Because the internal compensated voltage. The power switch will of that, the actual sense threshold right before cut off may not be reset by the oscillator clock in each cycle.
