AP8801
500mA LED Step-Down Converter
Features
* * * * * * * * LED driving current up to 500mA Operating input voltage up to 48V High efficiency up to 92% High switching frequency up to 500kHz PWM/DC input for dimming control Built-in output open-circuit protection SOP-8L and MSOP-8L are available in "Green" Molding Compound (No Br, Sb) Lead Free Finish/RoHS Compliant (Note 1)
General Description
The AP8801 is a step-down DC/DC converter designed to drive LEDs with a constant current. The device can drive up to thirteen LEDs, depending on the forward voltage of the LEDs, in series from a voltage source of 8V to 48V. Series connection of the LEDs provides identical LED currents resulting in uniform brightness and eliminating the need for ballast resistors. The AP8801 switches at frequency up to 500kHz. This allows the use of small size external components, hence minimizing the PCB area needed. Maximum output current of AP8801 is set via an external resistor connected between the VIN and SET input pins. Dimming is achieved by applying either a DC voltage or a PWM signal at the CTRL input pin. An input voltage of 0.2V or lower at CTRL shuts down the output at SW and puts the device into a low-current standby state.
Applications
* * * * Commercial & industrial lighting Small LCD panel backlight Appliances interior lighting Architecture Detail lighting

Supply Voltage (V)
Figure 5: Minimum recommended inductor with 500mA LED current Capacitor Selection The small size of ceramic capacitors makes them ideal for AP8801 applications. X5R and X7R types are recommended because they retain their capacitance over wider voltage and temperature ranges than other types such as Z5U. A 2.2F input capacitor is sufficient for most intended applications of AP8801. A 4.7F input capacitor is suggested for application with an input voltage equal or higher than 40V. Diode Selection Schottky diodes, e.g. B1100, with their low forward voltage drop and fast reverse recovery, are the ideal choice for AP8801 applications. PWM Dimming A Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signal with a max resolution of 8bit, can be applied to the CTRL pin to change the output current to a value above or below the nominal average value set by resistor RSET. To achieve this resolution the PWM frequency has to be lower than 500Hz.
