The AP8802 is a step-down DC/DC converter designed to drive

LEDs with a constant current. The device can drive up to thirteen

LEDs, depending on the forward voltage of the LEDs, in series

from a voltage source of 8V to 48V. Series connection of the

LEDs provides identical LED currents resulting in uniform

brightness and eliminating the need for ballast resistors. The

AP8802 switches at frequency up to 500kHz.

This allows the

use of small size external components, hence minimizing the

PCB area needed.

Maximum output current of AP8802 is set via an external resistor

Dimming is

achieved by applying either a DC voltage or a PWM signal at the

CTRL input pin.

An input voltage of 0.2V or lower at CTRL shuts

down the output at SW and puts the device into a low-current

standby state.
