MAX8969EWL50+T

MAX8969EWL50+T is Maxim Integrated’s multi‑channel LED driver and power‑management IC. The EWL50+T suffix denotes a 50‑pin wafer‑level package (EWL) in tape‑and‑reel form. The device provides multiple current‑regulated LED outputs with programmable current per channel, supports dimming (PWM/analog), and includes protective features (fault reporting, short/open LED protection, overtemperature/UVLO). It also integrates power management to efficiently drive LEDs from a higher input voltage. Control is via a serial interface to set channel currents, dimming, and fault status. Applications include LED backlighting for displays, automotive lighting, architectural lighting, and signage. For exact channel count, current ranges, input voltage limits, and interface details, consult the MAX8969 datasheet and the EWL50+T package data.
