General Description
The CL6 is a fixed, linear current regulator designed for driving
high brightness LEDs at 100mA from nominal 12V, 24V, or 48V
supplies. With a maximum rating of 90V, it is able to withstand
transients without the need for additional transient protection
circuitry.
The CL6 is offered in both D-PAK and TO-220 packages. The
tab on the TO-220 is ground, allowing heatsinking directly to a
chassis without the need for electrically insulating spacers.
Overtemperature protection shuts off the LED current when
the die temperature rises above 135°C (nominal). Full LED
current resumes when the die temperature falls below 105°C
(nominal).
