MPQ3326AGRE-AEC1-P

Overview

The MPQ3326AGRE-AEC1-P is a 16-channel LED driver IC designed for automotive applications, certified to AEC-Q100 standards. It operates within an input voltage range of 4.5 V to 16 V and delivers up to 80 mA per channel. The device supports separated PWM and analog dimming control via an I2C interface. It features a QFN-24 package with a maximum power dissipation of 2.97 W and functions reliably across a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Supports independent PWM and analog dimming for precise brightness control
• Integrates short circuit and thermal protection mechanisms
• Enables centralized configuration through a standard I2C interface

Applications

• Automotive exterior lighting systems
• Interior ambient illumination arrays
• Dashboard and instrument cluster backlighting

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official Monolithic Power Systems documentation to confirm pinout compatibility and electrical ratings. Ensure the component meets required automotive qualification standards for the target application environment before integration into final designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing multi-channel LED architectures requiring individual channel current regulation. It is suitable for systems needing digital control interfaces and robust protection features in space-constrained automotive enclosures.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MPQ3326 family of linear LED drivers from Monolithic Power Systems. It shares architectural similarities with variants like the MPQ3326GR but differs in output current specifications and specific automotive grade certifications.
