Abstract: This reference design is a complete application design for an automotive LED application. It utilizes the MAX15005 current-mode controller to boost a standard lead-acid car battery to 21V for driving a string of automotive LEDs. The reference design below provides a reference design for an automotive LED application. The MAX15005 is used to boost a standard, 8V to 16V car battery to 21V in order to drive a string of 6 to 8 LEDs. Key specifications for this reference design are listed below, along with a detailed schematic (Figure 1) and the bill of materials (Table 1) needed for this application. Specifications VIN: 8V to 16V (Continuous), 40V (Transient) VLED+ Supply Voltage: 21V ±5% at 80mA (max) VLED+ Load Range: 10V to 20V at 70mA ILED: 70mA ±5% Dimming Input: 400Hz, 50Ω, Open Collector Dimming Resolution: 3µs Switching Frequency: 385kHz Operating Temperature: -40°C to +125°C More detailed image (PDF, 92kB) Figure 1.
