Analog Devices / Maxim Integrated MAX20056BEVKIT Driver Evaluation Kit

Analog Devices Inc. MAX20056BEVKIT Driver Evaluation Kit demonstrates the MAX20056B, an integrated, 6-channel high-brightness LED driver with a wide PWM dimming ratio and phase-shifting for automotive displays. The evaluation kit operates from a DC supply voltage of 4.5V to 36V, and the switching frequency is set at 400kHz. Spread-spectrum mode (SSM) is enabled for EMI improvement. The evaluation kit demonstrates direct dim and phase-shifted pulse-width modulation (PWM) dimming. The evaluation kit also demonstrates short-LED, open-LED, and over-temperature fault protection.
