CL7
100 mA Constant-Current Linear LED Driver with Enable Input
Features
General Description
• 100 mA ±5% Constant-current Driver
• Built-in Reverse Polarity Protection
• Logic-level Enable
The CL7 is a fixed-current linear regulator designed for
driving high-brightness LEDs at 100 mA from nominal
12V, 24V and 48V power supplies. With a maximum
rating of 90V, it is able to withstand transients without
the need for additional transient protection circuitry.
The CL7 is offered in the 8-lead SOIC (with heat slug)
package.
• Dimmable via EN Pin
• Overtemperature Protection
• 90V Maximum Rating for Transient Immunity
An active-low enable input (EN) allows logic-level
control of the LED for on/off control or PWM dimming.
The enable input has 100 kΩ pull-down resistance. For
applications not needing an enable input, refer to the
CL6 data sheet.
Applications
• Flashlights
• Specialty Lighting
• Low-voltage Signage
• Low-voltage Lighting
Overtemperature protection circuitry shuts down all
three channels when the nominal die temperature
reaches 135°C. Normal operation resumes when the
die temperature falls below 105 °C.
