General Description The BCR401W is a cost efficient LED driver to drive low power LED's. The advantages towards resistor biasing are: * homogenous light output despite varying forward voltages in different LED strings * homogenous light output of LED's despite voltage drop across long supply lines * homogenous light output independent from supply voltage variations * longer lifetime of the LED's due to reduced output current at higher temperatures (negative thermal coefficient) The advantages towards discrete solutions are: * lower assembly cost * smaller form factor * better quality due to less soldering points * higher output current accuracy due to pretested LED drivers Dimming is possible by using an external digital transistor at the ground pin. The BCR401W can be operated at higher supply voltages by putting LED's between the power supply +VS and the power supply pin of the LED driver. You can find further details in the application note AN182. The BCR401W is a perfect fit for numerous low power LED applications by combining small form factor with low cost. These LED drivers offer several advantages to resistors like significantly higher current control at very low voltage drop ensuring high lifetime of LED's.

Application hints BCR401W serves as an easy to use constant current source for LEDs. In stand alone application an external resistor can be connected to adjust the current from 10 mA to 60 mA. Rext can be determined by using the diagram 'Output current versus external resistor', or by refering to diagram 'Output current versus reference voltage'. Look for your desired output current on the y axis and read out the corresponding Vdrop. Calculate Rext: Rext = Vdrop / (Iout -(Vdrop/Rint)) Please take into account that the resulting output currents will be slightly lower due to the self heating of the component and the negative thermal coefficient. Please visit our web site for application notes: www.infineon.com/lowcostleddriver * AN077 gives hints to thermal design * AN182 provides a guideline for replacing resistor biasing with BCR401W / BCR402W constant current sources in 12 & 24V striplight applications
