Aimtec Releases Constant Current LED Drivers

February 12, 2009 by Jeff Shepard

Aimtec Inc. introduced the first two series of its new line of step-down dc-dc LED drivers. Available in a compact DIP24 and DIP14 packages, the AMLD-IZ and AMLDL-Z series of LED drivers meet the rigorous demands for environment friendly LED lighting solutions.

From an wide input range of 5 -36 and 7-30Vdc the AMLD-IZ and AMLDL-Z LED drivers provide output current accuracy of up to ±2% thus ensuring the constant color and brightness that is required by today’s most demanding LED applications.

Producing up to 22.5W of power in a DIP24 package (31.80 × 20.30 × 10.20 mm), or compact DIP14 (20.32 x 10.16 x 6.88 mm) both series include a remote ON/OFF control function as well as both PWM and analog voltage dimming control (0 – 100%).

Standard output currents choices include 300, 350, 500, 600 and 700mA to make these drivers compatible with a wide range of LEDs applications from variety of manufacturers without the need for any external components.

With efficiencies as high as 96%, Aimtec’s LED drivers are designed to be as reliable as the LEDs they drive, allowing them to be used at an operating temperature of -40 to +85°C at full load.

Aimtec’s LED drivers are suitable for either single unit or arrays of LEDs for lighting applications that include advertising displays, road and rail traffic signs and signals, exterior and interior lighting for automotive, consumer products and a wide range of industrial products, including telecommunication applications.

Both series are priced starting at $7.99/1000+.
