RT8560
High Voltage 4 Channel LED Driver
General Description
Features
z High Voltage : VIN up to 40V, VOUT up to 60V, Driving
up to 60 x 3.6V LEDs (15 each channel)
z Channel Current Programmabe 4mA to 30mA and
Matched to 3% Accuracy
The RT8560 is a 60V 4-channel LED driver capable of
delivering 30mA to each channel with 15 LEDs (3.6V per
diode) total 60 LEDs with one driver. The RT8560 is a
current mode boost converter opearated at 1MHz switching
frequency, wide VIN range covers from 7V to 40V and the
on-chip current switch is rated at 1.5A.
z Current Mode PWM 1MHz Boost Converter
z Easy Analog and Digital Dimming Control
z Programmable Soft Start
The PWM output voltage loop selects and regulates the
LED pin with the highest voltage string to 0.9V allowing
voltage mismatches between LED strings. The RT8560
automatically detects and disconnects any unconnected
and/or broken strings during operation from PWM loop to
prevent VOUT from over voltage.
z Automatic Detecting Unconnected and/or Broken
Channel
z Programmable Over Voltage Protection
z Disconnects LED in Digital Dimming : Providing
High Accuracy Digital Dimming by PWM at ACTL
Pin or EN Pin
The 3% matched LEDcurrents on all channels are simply
programmed with a resistor or a current sink. Both analog
dimming and digitally controlled PWM dimming are
supported by RT8560. Analog dimming is linearly
controlled by an external voltage. With an on-chip output
clampping amplifier and a 200kΩ resistor, PWM dimming
signal is easily low-pass filtered to an analog dimming
signal with one external capacitor for noise-free PWM
dimming. A very high contrast ratio true digital PWM
dimming can be achieved by driving EN pin to PWM
shutdown the chip or by driving ACTL pin.
z VIN Under Voltage Lockout
z Over Temperature Protection
z Current Limiting Protection
