GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP8140 provides high current control of up to four LED
drivers. Each driver can sink up to 500 mA. The sink current is
programmed for all four drivers with one external resistor.
circuits, overvoltages, and LED open circuits. Multiple
ADP8140 ICs are easily connected in parallel to drive additional
LED strings or higher current LEDs. The ADP8140 is available
in a small, thermally enhanced, lead frame chip scale package
(LFCSP).
The device features a feedback output that controls an external
power supply for optimal efficiency. The ADP8140 also protects
the LEDs, power supply, and itself against thermal events, short
