Texas Instruments offers the automotiveindustry"s first two-channel switching LED driver for front lights and the only linear LED driver with singleshort LED detection for rear lights, according to the company. Unlike other LEDdrivers on the market, the TPS92630-Q1 and TPS92602-Q1 feature both high-sidecurrent sense dimming and pulse width modulation (PWM) dimming capabilities, aswell as full diagnostic and thermal management. These features help designerscreate flexible lighting systems that meet many countries" differing regulations. Applications for the TPS92630-Q1 and TPS92602-Q1 includeautomotive LED front lamp, rear lamp, and interior lighting. The TPS92630-Q1 for automotive rear lightsfeatures the industry"s only singleLED short detection, multi-chip fault bus connection, and thermal currentfold-back with programmable threshold. In addition, the TPS92602-Q1 for automotivefront lights supports both linear analog dimming with high-side current sensingand PWM dimming with high-side PMOSFET, dedicated diagnostic pin, as well asauto recovery.
