MAX16801AEUA+T

LED Driver IC Overview

The MAX16801AEUA+T is an AC-DC offline switcher IC designed for LED driver applications. It supports flyback, SEPIC, buck, and boost topologies with a single output. The device operates within an input voltage range of 85V to 265V and features a fixed switching frequency of 262kHz. It provides both analog and PWM dimming capabilities. The component is housed in an 8-uMAX/uSOP package and is rated for operation between -40°C and +85°C.

LED Driver IC Feature Summary

• Supports multiple non-isolated power converter topologies including flyback, SEPIC, buck, and boost configurations.
• Enables precise LED brightness control through integrated analog and pulse-width modulation (PWM) dimming interfaces.

LED Driver IC Applications

• LED backlighting systems
• General solid-state lighting fixtures

LED Driver IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation when sourcing components, as it indicates the tape-and-reel packaging configuration. Confirm that the part number matches the exact manufacturer specifications required for the design. Ensure compliance with relevant environmental standards such as RoHS before finalizing procurement orders.

LED Driver IC Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a single-output LED driver with integrated AC-DC conversion. It is suitable for applications needing flexible topology options like SEPIC or buck-boost. Consider the fixed 262kHz frequency and the specific 8-pin package dimensions during the PCB layout phase to ensure proper thermal and electrical performance.

LED Driver IC Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX16801 family of LED drivers from Analog Devices/Maxim Integrated.
