Description

BCR420: LED's best friend

BCR420 is a smart and efficient solution for all your LED driving needs. This versatile device from Diades Incorporated is no ordinary IC. A combination of transistors, diodes, and resistors acts as a constant current regulator (CCR) for driving linear LEDs. Let's take a closer look at what makes the BCR420 so great at controlling LEDs.

Shining features:

Precision Control: BCR420 stabilizes the LED current at a preset 10mA nominal current. Additionally, it can be flexibly adjusted up to 350mA using external resistors. So whether you need a subtle glow or a dazzling display, this IC has you covered.

Hot Stuff: LEDs can get pretty hot, and the BCR420 can handle that. It has a built-in self-protection mechanism that reduces the current when the temperature rises, keeping the LED safe and healthy.

Versatile voltage: The maximum supply voltage of 40V allows this IC to adapt to various scenarios. It's like having a voltage chameleon for your LED needs.

Great integrated features: BCR420UW6 is an all-in-one package. It includes an NPN emitter follower with emitter resistor for LED constant current regulation, so there is no need to look for additional components.

Dim it: Need to create lighting effects? The BCR421U version supports PWM input at frequencies below 25kHz. It's an LED dimmer and regulator all in one.

Stay cool: Worried about overheating? The BCR420 has a negative temperature coefficient (NTC). As the temperature increases, the output current decreases to keep the LED cool and efficient.

Unleash the power: Need more current for your LED string? You can increase the regulated current using parallel device configuration with the BCR420. Get the power you need right away.

Where can I use it?

The BCR420 is a versatile IC, ready for use in a variety of applications.

Automotive interior lighting: Provides constant current regulation for a consistent and reliable lighting experience inside the vehicle.

Emergency lighting: In the event of a power outage, emergency lighting must be bright and on. BCR420 guarantees that.

Signs, advertising, and decorative lighting: This IC is ideal for eye-catching displays that require precise LED control.

Retail Lighting: Whether it's a refrigerator, freezer case, or vending machine, the BCR420 is perfect for maintaining consistent, energy-efficient lighting in retail environments.

The BCR420 IC allows you to precisely control your LEDs while keeping them safe and efficient. The ultimate partner for any LED application, providing the light you need, when you need it.
