ROHM unveils BP5222A constant current DC LED driver

Aug. 9, 2006
Date Announced: 09 Aug 2006 ROHM’s BP5222A LED driver features a wide DC input voltage range (15V-38V), an output voltage of 12V, and a high power conversion efficiency (90% at VIN=20V). In addition, constant current drive capability (350mA when R1=3.68) makes it possible to easily drive power LEDs using just a few external components.ROHM also offers the BP5220A and BP5221A DC/DC converters with an input voltage range of 8V-38V, an output voltage of 5V, and a conversion efficiency of approximately 85% (VIN=15V), ensuring suitability with power supplies of all types, including copiers, PCs, fax machines, and security/industrial equipment.The series is both lead-free and RoHS compliant.Pricing and Availability:Product samples are available. Pricing for the series is $3.55 each (minimum purchase 150pcs). Lead time is 8-10 weeks ARO.For more information about these and other ROHM products, visit www.rohmelectronics.com or call 888-775-ROHM.Applications:Power supplies in consumer/industrial/commercial devices and lighting equipment (i.e. home, stage, landscape, facility, disaster prevention), and more.Features:* Wide input voltage range: 15V-38V (BP5222A), 8V-38V (BP5220/1A)* High power conversion efficiency: 90% at VIN=24V (BP5222A), 85% at VIN=15V (BP5220/1A)* Constant current driving possible using external resistor R1 (lo=350mA when R1=3.68Ω)* Available in a compact SIP9 package (28x19.5x12mm)About ROHM:ROHM is the industry leader in system LSI, discrete components and module products, utilizing the latest in semiconductor technology.
