General Description

The iML8690 is an LED current controller with line regulation compensation for operating over a wide alternative current (AC) voltage source range. It can drive an external N-channel power MOSFET to regulate the current flowing through a high voltage (HV) LED string.

The application of the iML8690 is configured in series with an LED string, working as a constant current sink with linear type over voltage protection (OVP), linear type over temperature protection (OTP), and line regulation compensation. It is suitable for applications with a rectified AC voltage source.

The PCB design can be very compact to meet various shape requirements. It is especially suitable for replacing incandescent light bulb and linear type fluorescent lamps.
