Internal breakdown voltage is >6V, this is the maximum voltage that the LED driver IC can sustain when the ouput is directly connected to supply voltage. The BCR32U/BCR32U can be operated at supply voltages of 6V or higher, by regarding the voltage drop of the LED load, which reduces the supply voltage to the maximum output voltage of the driver. The enable pin (BCR32) can withstand a maximum voltage of 25 V, which can also be increased by stacking a series in front of the LED drivers, resulting in a certain voltage drop of the LEDs, reducing the voltage at the enable pin below 25V. digital input pin (BCR32U) allows dimming via a Microcontroller with frequencies of up to khz. reduction of the output current at higher temperatures is the result of the negative temperature coefficient of.2 %/K. of the LED drivers. With no need for additional external components like inductors, capacitors and free wheeling diodes, the BCR32U/BCR32U LED drivers are a costefficient and PCBarea saving solution for driving.5w LEDs. 25

In stand alone application an external resistor can be connected to adjust the current from m to 25 m. R ext can be determined by using the diagram 'Output current versus external resistor'. Please take into account that the resulting output currents will be slightly lower due to the self heating of the component and the negative thermal coefficient.
