TheON Semoconductor launchs a CCR (Constant Current Regulator) LED Driver series. The CCR is a simple, economical and robust device designed to provide a cost effective solution for regulating current in LEDs, for instance, the NSI45015W: 45 V, 15 mA ± 20%, 460 mW package, CCR SOD-123. The CCR is based on Patent-pending Self-Biased Transistor (SBT) technology and regulate current over a wide voltage range. It is designed with a negative temperature coefficient to protect LEDs from thermal runaway at extreme voltages and currents. The CCR turns on immediately and is at 35% of regulation with only 0.5 V Vak. It requires no external components allowing it to be designed as a high or low side regulator. The high anode-cathode voltage rating withstands surges common in Automotive, Industrial and Commercial Signage applications. The CCR comes in thermally robust packages and is qualified to AEC-Q101 standard. For more information visit http://www.onsemi.com/PowerSolutions/product.do?id=NSI45015W
