Simplify the development of LED applications and get to market faster with our complete portfolio of LED drivers, which can be combined with our microcontrollers and power management, interface and connectivity products. These solutions help you integrate LED technologies into complex and high-reliability applications such as automotive safety systems. We can also simplify the design of other emerging applications such as Human Centric Lighting (HCL) where LED technologies work together as a system to mimic the cycle of natural lighting which can improve health and productivity. We offer development tools and other design resources, along with specialized technical support to help you create exciting and innovative LED applications.

Our Electroluminescent (EL) drivers help cut costs and simplify designs for laptops, cellphone backlighting, consumer medical devices and wearables, and Internet of Things products.

Designed to support the rigorous requirements of the automotive industry, our high-brightness LED drivers offer advanced Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) control capabilities such as fast transient response and very low susceptibility to noisy input transients.

To meet the specific requirements of applications ranging from RGB backlight to multiple-string white LED design, our backlight LED drivers optimize LED performance, efficiency and lifespan while minimizing the size of your design.

Targeting the most common requirements in for solid-state lighting and general illumination applications, our portfolio of general-purpose LED drivers includes high-voltage and high-brightness options.

Our sequential linear drivers can be used for long strings of low-cost, low-current LEDs that are created as solid-state replacements for fluorescent tubes, incandescent bulbs and CFL bulbs. Requiring just a single ceramic bypass capacitor, our linear current drivers simplify single- or multiple- channel designs.

Capable of driving one or two camera flash LEDs up to 1.5A, our camera flash LED drivers offer best-in-class efficiency and enhanced current accuracy for portable battery-operated applications including smartphones, camera-phones, tablets, notebooks, and digital still and video cameras.
