Power Electronics / Power Management
The XDPL8220 from Infineon Technologies is an LED driver with a digital core that enables a variety of systems based on the same device. It offers a modern two-stage architecture, significantly easing the implementation of impending flicker standards. With a standby power of less than 70 mW, it reduces power consumption in the non-active mode while still reacting to external events or user requests. Advanced control algorithms provide the possibility to realise lighting for constant current or constant voltage mode in the same circuit. The power limitation mode keeps the light on while it optimally utilises the capabilities of the components. The driver provides a comprehensive set of parameters for adjusting the operating constraints.
