AP8802EV2 USER GUIDE

DESCRIPTION

The AP8802EV2, Figure 1, is a PCB constructed using an FR4 base for evaluating the AP8802 LED

driver with internal switch in the SOP 8L-EP package. The evaluation board can be used to drive an

external choice of LEDs; the total forward voltage across the LEDs depending on the number and

type connected. [1]

The suggested operating voltage for the evaluation board ranges from 8V to 45V maximum.

Higher voltage means lower supply current.

The nominal current for the evaluation board is set at 1A with a 0R2 sense resistor, R1.

Test point CTRL provides a connection point for DC or PWM dimming and shutdown.

Note: The evaluation board does not have reverse polarity protection

Warning: with 1A output, the connected LED will be hot and very bright

AP8802 DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The AP8802 is a step-down DC/DC converter designed to drive LEDs with a constant current. The

device can drive up to thirteen LEDs, depending largely 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 eliminates the need for ballast resistors. The AP8802 switches at

frequencies up to 500KHz. This allows the use of small size external components, hence minimizing

the PCB area needed.

The maximum output current of the AP8802 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.

The device includes the output switch and a current sense circuit, which requires an external sense

resistor to set the nominal current up to 1A.
