Linear LED Driver Reference Design for Automotive Lighting Applications

Description

TIDA-00679 an automotive LED tail-light application (tail/stop: turn and reverse). It uses TPS92630 linear LED driver which is directly powered through a smart-reverse battery diode off the automotive battery. The design enables potential cost savings and efficiency through lower power dissipation and improved system thermals. This reference design also includes CISPR25 testing: pulse tests by ISO 7637-2 and EMI/EMC radiated and conducted emissions testing.For a similar design with TPS92630-Q1 driven by a buck converter: see TIDA-00677.For a similar design driven by a boost converter: see TIDA-00678.
