Design a Custom BoardAbout This Component
High-efficiency automotive-grade DC-DC buck LED driver supporting input voltages from 4.5V to 40V with output current up to 1.5A. Features integrated 40V power switch, high-side current sensing, PWM/DC dimming control, soft-start adjustment, and comprehensive protection (short-circuit, open-circuit, overtemperature). Achieves >95% efficiency at up to 1MHz switching frequency, suitable for automotive interior and exterior LED applications.
Package: TSSOP-8 (3×3mm) · 8 pins
Why does this need a breakout?
The 0.65 mm pin pitch makes hand soldering tedious and error-prone; a breakout board lets you solder standard headers instead, enabling quick prototyping on breadboards. Ideal for I2C GPIO expanders, level translators, and audio amplifiers where you need reliable connections without rework risk.
