AL1698
DIMMABLE LED DRIVER
Description
Pin Assignments
The AL1698 is a high performance, high power factor, high efficiency,
and high current precision buck-boost and flyback dimmable LED
driver for triac dimmable LED lamp applications. The AL1698
topology provides an accurate output current over wide line and load
regulation. The wide switching frequency operates at Boundary
Conduction Mode (BCM) to ease EMI/EMC design and testing, to
meet the latest regulatory standards.

The AL1698 LED driver has a built-in high voltage JFET, which
provides the system fast start-up time and enables users an easy and
stable VCC supply design. The AL1698 also integrates a 600V/2A high
voltage MOSFET. It can cover 230VAC triac dimmable applications
with eliminating the external high voltage MOSFET and VCC startup
resistors, which will reduce the system BOM cost. The AL1698 has
the built-in thermal fold-back protection trigger point to automatically
reduce output current. Other protection features enhance LED lighting
system's safety and reliability.

The AL1698 dimming curve is compliant with the NEMA SSL6
standard. The AL1698 applies to a wide range of dimmers, including
leading edge and trailing edge dimmer, to achieve deep dimming
down to 1%.
The AL1698 is available in SO-7 package.
