Internal breakdown voltage is higher than 16 V which is the maximum voltage the LED driver can sustain when the output is directly connected to supply voltage. The BCR 320U E6327 / BCR 321U E6327 can be operated with a supply voltage of more than 16 V considering the voltage drop of the LED load which reduces the output voltage to the maximum rating of the driver. The enable pin of BCR 320U E6327 can withstand a maximum voltage of 25 V which can be increased adding a series resistor in front of the enable pin reducing the voltage at the enable pin below 25 V. The digital input pin of BCR 321U E6327 allows dimming via a micro controller with frequencies up to 10 kHz. A reduction of the output current at higher temperatures is the result of the negative temperature coefficient of - 0.2 %/K of the LED driver. With no need for additional external components like inductors, capacitors and free wheeling diodes, the BCR 320U E6327 / BCR 321U E6327 LED drivers are a cost-efficient and PCB-area saving solution for driving 0.5 W LEDs.
