Description

The AL58263Q is an automotive AEC-Q100 grade 1 16-channel constant current LED driver with 16-bit grayscale Adaptive Pulse Density Modulation (APDM) PWM, supporting error diagnostics, power saving function and current gain control. This distinctive APDM technology abates the non-ideal IOUT distortion due to non-symmetric transient responses and enhances the refresh rate by separating efficiently the frame waveform.

The device operates over a 3V to 5.0V input voltage range, 15V output channel voltage, a fast 25MHz DCK input, and delivers up to 55mA of high accuracy current to each string of LED. Each channel average output current can be programmable independently via digital interface individually. All channels output current could be set by one external sensing resistor along with 6-bit global current control register.

The AL58263Q has built-in detection and diagnosis and LED open/short including error detection. Those errors results are stored in register for MCU to read out.

The AL58263Q is available in the Wettable Flank W-QFN4040-24/SWP (Type A1) package and specified over the -40°C to +125°C ambient temperature range.
