Adjustable Constant Current
Regulator & LED Driver
45 V, 90 − 160 mA + 15%, 2.7 W Package
The adjustable constant current regulator (CCR) is a simple,
economical and robust device designed to provide a cost effective
solution for regulating current in LEDs. The CCR is based on
patent- pending Self- Biased Transistor (SBT) technology and
regulates current over a wide voltage range. It is designed with a
negative temperature coefficient to protect LEDs from thermal
runaway at extreme voltages and currents.

adjustment is required. It requires no external components allowing it
to be designed as a high or low−side regulator. The high anode-
cathode voltage rating withstands surges common in Automotive,
Industrial and Commercial Signage applications. This device is
available in a thermally robust package, which is lead-free RoHS
compliant and uses halogen- free molding compound. For the
AEC−Q101 part please see the NSI45090JD datasheet.
