Diodes Incorporated has expanded their line of LED drivers that are compatible with automobiles with the new AL8891Q . It can handle current up to 2A and works with a wide range of power sources that range from 4.5V to 65V. The AL8891Q LED can work with longer chains of LED lights in automotive lighting applications, including daytime running lights (DRL), fog lights, turn lights, brake/stop lights, and interior lights. Additionally, it has a 95% duty cycle, meaning it can efficiently power these lights for extended periods without losing performance.
Diodes’s LED driver supports both PWM dimming, which is used for precise brightness control, and analog dimming, which is used for smoother adjustments in lights. The LED driver uses constant-on-time (COT) control to get fast responses and comes in adjustable frequencies from 200 kHz to 2.5 MHz. The device has built-in safety features to protect it from overheating, low power, and electrical faults, ensuring it works reliably.
The AL8891Q is perfect for the automobile industry to design car lighting systems. The AL8891 version, which is best for general lighting needs in industries and businesses, is now available for purchase. Priced at $0.78 each for bulk orders of 1,000 pieces, it comes in a compact TSSOP-16EP package that can operate reliably in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +125°C.
The AL8891Q is designed to make lighting systems more efficient and reliable. Provided with a wide range of applications, from automotive to general industrial uses, offer a practical solution for better control and durability of LEDs.
