BU26507GUL-E2

Overview

The BU26507GUL-E2 is an LED lighting driver IC designed for dot matrix applications, supporting 5 to 6 LEDs. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V and dissipates up to 790 mW. The component utilizes a VCSP50L2-25 package and supports SMD/SMT installation. It functions reliably across an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Supports I²C compatible and 3-wire serial interface communication
• Designed specifically for driving 5 to 6 LEDs in dot matrix configurations

Applications

• Dot matrix LED displays
• LED lighting systems requiring serial control interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the current lifecycle status before procurement, as this component is marked as NRND (Not Recommended for New Designs). Confirm that the VCSP50L2-25 package dimensions align with your PCB layout requirements. Ensure compatibility with the specified 2.7 V to 5.5 V input voltage range for your target application circuit.

Selection Notes

Select this driver when a compact solution for small dot matrix arrays is required. It is suitable for designs needing I²C or 3-wire serial control rather than parallel data lines. Consider the thermal dissipation capabilities relative to the 790 mW power rating during operation within the specified temperature limits.
