TI's new automotive LED lighting controller puts the power in designers' hands

Achieve higher power, better reliability and thermal dissipation in automotive LED lighting systems by selecting a controller and external MOSFET

DALLAS, Nov. 30, 2017 — (PRNewswire) —  Texas Instruments (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) today introduced the first 3-channel high-side linear automotive light-emitting diode (LED) controller without internal MOSFETs which gives designers greater flexibility for their lighting designs. The TPS92830-Q1's novel architecture enables higher power and better thermal dissipation than conventional LED controllers, and are particularly beneficial for automotive LED lighting applications that require high performance and reliability. For more information, see www.ti.com/tps92830q1-pr.

Achieve higher power, better reliability and thermal dissipation in automotive LED lighting systems by selecting a controller and external MOSFET

Conventional LED drivers integrate the MOSFET, which limits designers' ability to customize features. With that type of driver, designers often must make significant design modifications to achieve the desired system performance. The TPS92830-Q1 LED controller's flexible on-board features give designers the freedom to select the best MOSFET for their system requirements. With this new approach, designers can more quickly and efficiently optimize their lighting power designs for automotive system requirements and desired dimming features.

Key features and benefits

The TPS92830-Q1 expands TI's extensive portfolio of LED drivers, design tools and technical resources that help designers implement innovative automotive lighting features.

Tools and support
Support tools include the  TPS92830-Q1 3-Channel High-Current Linear LED Controller evaluation module. Engineers can jump-start automotive lighting systems designs using the TPS92830-Q1 with the  EMC Compliant Automotive Daytime Running Light and Position Light Reference Design with LED Thermal Protection.

Availability, packaging and pricing
The TPS92830-Q1 is now available through the TI store and authorized distributors. Offered in a thin small outline package (TSOP), it is priced at US$1.96 in 1,000-unit quantities.
