Evaluation Boards - LED Drivers

An LED driver is an electronic device that controls the power supplied to an LED. It is important to select an LED driver that is compatible with your LED array, as too much or too little voltage can damage the LED and cause the array to be non-functional. The MCP1630RD-SALED evaluation board is designed to demonstrate the MCP1630 step-up DC-DC converter, a device designed to provide a regulated output voltage from a low voltage input source.

The MCP1630RD-SALED is suitable for applications such as driving multiple LEDs from a single cell LiPo battery, driving LEDs from embedded systems powered from a wide range of supply voltages, powering other circuitry from a regulated voltage, and controlling the output current of an LED array. This versatile evaluation board will help users to properly evaluate the MCP1630 step-up converter in a variety of real-world applications.

Working Principle

The MCP1630RD-SALED works by transferring energy from an input source to an output load, through the use of an electrical converter. This is done by connecting the input and output via a switch, which is then routed through an inductor, a diode, and a capacitor. When the switch is closed, it allows current to flow from the input source to the inductor, which creates a magnetic field. This stores energy in the form of magnetic field, which is then delivered to the diode, capacitor, and ultimately to the output load.

The diode, which allows current to flow in one direction only, acts as a rectifier and prevents the capacitor from discharging current when the switch is opened. The capacitor acts as an energy reservoir and keeps the output voltage at a constant level when the switch is opened. The MCP1630 includes various programmable features that can be used to optimize the operation of the device, such as an adjustable ramp rate and slope compensation.

Application Field

The MCP1630RD-SALED is a versatile evaluation board suited for a wide range of applications, such as lighting systems, automotive, industrial, and medical. In lighting systems, the board can be used to drive multiple LEDs from a single cell LiPo battery. It can be used to power other circuitry from a regulated voltage, and to control the output current of an LED array. In automotive applications, it can be used for interior and exterior lighting systems.

In industrial and medical applications, the device can be used to drive LEDs from embedded systems powered from a wide range of supply voltages, as well as for backlighting, signaling, alarms, and displays. With the various programmable features that can help to optimize its operation, the MCP1630RD-SALED is a great choice for any application that requires a reliable, high-performance LED driver.
