RT8474 Buck (multi-topology) LED driver IC overview
Description
RT8474 is a non-sync DC/DC Buck (multi-topology) LED driver IC from . Maximum input voltage is 50.0 V and it drives an output current of up to 2.00 A. Assuming a typical 3.5V LED forward voltage RT8474 can drive up to 12 LED in series.
The LED Buck (multi-topology) driver IC features fixed 490 kHz switching frequency, a feedback voltage of 0.10 V and requires a typical inductor size of 47.0 uH. This combination results in a peak efficiency of ~96 %. RT8474 comes in 1 package option(s) - SOP-8 .
