Targeted at the automotive lighting market, the A6260 LED driver is designed to operate over the typical automotive battery and temperature ranges. The input voltage range is specified down to 6 V and will operate up to a maximum of 40 V.

The linear constant current output can be adjusted to deliver up to 350 mA in a typical application. Protection features include shorts to ground or shorts to battery, reverse battery protection, and a thermal shut-down circuit which disables the IC if the junction temperature reaches 165¡ãC. Housed in an SOIC package, the device also includes a temperature monitor circuit.
