SCT2302 V01_01; Jul/12
2-Channel High Constant Driver with Supply Regulation Feedback
Product Description
The SCT2302 is a patented logical feedback for automatic supply regulation to minimize the system
power consumption. The SCT2302 is a two channels constant current driver for LED lighting. It provides
the PWM dimming by sinking constant current from LED clusters with minimum pulse width 20us. The
dimming control is performed by connecting the PWM signal from system control unit to OE pin. The full
scale current value of each output is set by an external resistor connected to REXT pin. The SCT2302
guarantees to endure maximum DC 24V at each output port. Each output of SCT2302 can sink a
constant current up to 480mA. Users can simply shunt the outputs to get higher current driverꢀability in
lighting high power LED.
The excellent current regulation capability allows SCT2302 easily drive each output current to a constant
stable output nearly without affected by power supply of LED, loading due to variant VF of LEDs and
operating temperature. The SCT2302 is equipped with over temperature protection. The two channels
IC stops driving the output while junction temperature exceeds 180°C the high limit and the output will
be reactivated while the junction temperature is below 110°C the low limit. In conclusion, the driver
system is protected from damage of overheated. Furthermore, with feedback input function, the
SCT2302 can be operated with cascaded operation for multiple LED drivers system.
