Texas Instruments TPS92622-Q1 Automotive LED Driver

Texas Instruments TPS92622-Q1 Automotive LED Driver includes a unique thermal management design to reduce the temperature from rising. Automotive batteries power the two-channel LED driver with significant voltage variations to output full current loads up to 150mA per channel. External shunt resistors are leveraged to share output current and dissipate power out of the driver. The TPS92622-Q1 full-diagnostic capabilities include LED open, short-to-GND circuit, and device overtemperature protection.

The one-fails-all-fail feature of TPS92622-Q1 can work jointly with other LED drivers, such as the TPS9261x-Q1, TPS9262x-Q1, TPS9263x-Q1, and TPS92830-Q1 devices, to manage different requirements.
