A6260KLJTR-T 概要

The Allegro MicroSystems A6260KLJTR-T is a linear, programmable high-brightness LED current regulator delivering up to 350 mA from a 6 V to 40 V supply, housed in an 8-pin SOIC with exposed thermal pad (suffix LJ). It provides 4% accurate constant current set by a single low-power sense resistor, integrated reverse-battery protection, and AEC-Q100 automotive qualification. The device drives series-connected high-brightness LEDs at load voltages up to 3 V below the main supply.

A linear LED driver (also called an LED current regulator or constant-current source) is a type of power management IC that maintains a fixed current through one or more series-connected LEDs by modulating a series pass element's voltage drop, rather than by switching. Linear LED drivers sit within the broader category of LED drivers, which themselves are part of the power management IC family. Unlike switching LED drivers, linear regulators introduce no EMI switching noise and require no inductor, making them ideal for noise-sensitive and space-constrained automotive lighting applications.

Key features include a wide 6 V to 40 V input range, low dropout allowing operation up to 3 V below supply, programmable current up to 350 mA via external RSENSE, PWM dimming control input, integrated LED short-circuit protection, thermal shutdown with current slew-rate limiting, and reverse-battery protection. Reverse-battery protection eliminates the need for an external blocking diode on the supply rail. The exposed thermal pad (EP) on the 8-SOIC package provides a low thermal resistance path critical for dissipating up to several hundred mW at full output.

The A6260 employs a bandgap-referenced control loop driving an internal DMOS pass transistor. The architecture combines a high-side current sense amplifier with a precision reference and error amplifier to regulate the LED current at 4% accuracy across the full operating temperature range. Current slew-rate limiting reduces EMI by controlling the inrush profile when the PWM dimming input is toggled. The integrated thermal shutdown protects the die under fault conditions.

Typical applications include automotive interior and exterior LED lighting (dome lights, instrument clusters, daytime running lights, brake/tail lamps), architectural and signage illumination, industrial LED strips, and emergency vehicle strobes. The AEC-Q100 qualification makes the part particularly suited for under-hood and chassis-mounted lighting modules.

When designing with this device, derate power dissipation by the SOIC-EP thermal resistance to keep the junction below 150 C. Place the RSENSE resistor close to the SENSE pin to minimize parasitic resistance, and connect the exposed pad to a copper pour to maximize heat sinking. The PWM dimming frequency should be selected above 100 Hz to avoid visible flicker.

主な用途

A6260KLJTR-T の用途: 6 件s: Automotive Interior LED Lighting, Automotive Exterior Lighting (DRL, Brake, Tail), Architectural and Signage LED Illumination, Industrial LED Strip and Task Lighting, Emergency Vehicle Strobe and Warning LEDs, Instrument Cluster Backlighting.

🚗

Automotive Interior LED Lighting

The A6260KLJTR-T's 350 mA drive capability, 6 V to 40 V supply tolerance, and AEC-Q100 qualification make it well suited to automotive dome, map, courtesy, and ambient LED lighting. The integrated reverse-battery protection eliminates the need for an external blocking diode on the supply rail, simplifying the BOM. A single external RSENSE resistor sets the current to 4% accuracy, while the PWM dimming input allows seamless integration with body-control modules driving interior scenes. The 8-SOIC-EP package with exposed thermal pad enables compact PCB placement behind headliners and inside door trim modules without an additional heatsink. Unlike switching drivers, the linear topology introduces zero EMI, easing compliance with automotive radiated-emissions standards for cabin electronics.

🚗

Automotive Exterior Lighting (DRL, Brake, Tail)

For daytime running lights, brake lamps, and tail-lamp clusters, the A6260KLJTR-T provides the constant-current regulation that preserves LED brightness uniformity and lifetime. The 40 V supply rating absorbs load-dump transients common on 12 V automotive buses, and the integrated thermal shutdown protects the die under fault conditions. Driving 1 to 3 series-connected high-brightness LEDs at currents up to 350 mA matches the typical string architecture used in modern automotive rear lamps. The 3 V dropout budget gives designers headroom to add an extra LED in series without violating the compliance window at cold-crank battery voltages. PWM dimming supports stop-and-tail intensity separation with a single driver stage.

💡

Architectural and Signage LED Illumination

Architectural LED strips and signage modules benefit from the A6260KLJTR-T's linear topology, which delivers flicker-free constant current without the EMI signature of switching converters. The 6 V to 40 V supply range accepts both 12 V and 24 V constant-voltage LED drivers commonly used in commercial lighting installations. Programmable current up to 350 mA lets a single RSENSE value cover a range of high-brightness LED bins, simplifying inventory. The exposed-pad SOIC-EP package handles the dissipation of typical 24 V-supply architectural runs where the linear drop is moderate. Reverse-battery protection on the supply pin safeguards installations that may be serviced or rewired by non-electrical technicians.

🏭

Industrial LED Strip and Task Lighting

Inside industrial control cabinets and operator consoles, the A6260KLJTR-T provides a compact constant-current source for high-brightness LED strips used as task or backlight illumination. The wide supply tolerance handles 24 V industrial rails with substantial transient tolerance, while the 4% current accuracy prevents brightness mismatch between parallel strips. The 8-SOIC-EP footprint fits small PCBs adjacent to PLCs and HMIs where board area is constrained. Integrated thermal shutdown and LED short-circuit protection guard against wiring faults in factory environments. The PWM dimming input accepts logic-level signals directly from a 3.3 V or 5 V MCU without level shifting.

🚗

Emergency Vehicle Strobe and Warning LEDs

Emergency vehicle light bars and warning beacons require robust, AEC-Q100-qualified LED drivers that survive harsh electrical environments. The A6260KLJTR-T's 40 V rating tolerates load-dump events on 12 V emergency-vehicle buses, and its PWM input accepts the 100 Hz to 1 kHz flash patterns used in strobe controllers. The reverse-battery protection is critical for vehicles that may be jump-started across wiring faults. Driving high-brightness LED modules at 350 mA delivers the optical intensity required for SAE Class 1 warning devices. The exposed thermal pad keeps junction temperatures in check during continuous full-intensity operation in summer conditions.

📺

Instrument Cluster Backlighting

Automotive instrument clusters use dozens of small high-brightness LEDs for backlit gauges, pointers, and telltale indicators. The A6260KLJTR-T's compact 8-SOIC-EP footprint allows multiple drivers to be placed across a cluster PCB without competing for board area, while its PWM dimming input accepts the day/night brightness commands from the body-control module. The 4% current accuracy maintains uniform backlight intensity across all gauges, and the wide supply range handles cranking transients without flicker. The linear topology's zero-EMI signature is especially valuable behind radio receivers and GPS antennas where switching noise could couple into sensitive RF paths.

What is the maximum LED current the A6260KLJTR-T can drive?
The A6260KLJTR-T can drive up to 350 mA of constant current through a single high-brightness LED or a series string of up to 3 LEDs, per the Allegro datasheet. The current is programmed by a single external low-power sense resistor between the SENSE pin and ground, with 4% accuracy across the operating range.
What input voltage range does the A6260KLJTR-T support?
The A6260KLJTR-T operates from 6 V to 40 V on the supply pin, which makes it directly compatible with 12 V and 24 V automotive battery rails including load-dump transients. The load (LED string) voltage must remain at least 3 V below the supply voltage to maintain regulation at the dropout limit.
Where can I buy the A6260KLJTR-T online and what is the price?
The A6260KLJTR-T is in stock at major distributors including DigiKey, Mouser, Arrow, LCSC and Octopart as of 2026-10-06. Unit pricing starts around USD 1.85 at qty-1, dropping to roughly USD 1.05 per piece at 1000-piece reels, with LCSC listing the part from $1.5001 for budget-conscious prototyping.
Is the A6260KLJTR-T pin-compatible with the A6217KLJTR-1-T?
Both parts share the Allegro 8-SOIC-EP (LJ) footprint and pinout. The A6217 is a higher-current variant targeted at different LED string topologies, so substituting requires re-checking the RSENSE value, dropout budget, and PWM dimming logic levels against the A6260 datasheet before deployment.
How many LEDs can the A6260KLJTR-T drive in series?
The A6260KLJTR-T is optimized to drive 1 to 3 series-connected high-brightness LEDs at up to 350 mA per the Allegro datasheet. The exact number depends on the LED forward voltage sum staying within the regulator's compliance window (Vsupply minus 3 V dropout).
Does the A6260KLJTR-T include reverse battery protection?
Yes, the A6260KLJTR-T integrates reverse-battery protection on the supply pin, eliminating the need for an external blocking diode. This is a key feature for automotive applications where reverse polarity during jump-start or wiring faults would otherwise damage the regulator and load.
What is the difference between A6260KLJTR-T and A6260KLJ-T?
Both parts share the 8-SOIC-EP (LJ) package and identical electrical performance, but the A6260KLJTR-T ships on tape-and-reel (suffix TR) for high-volume assembly, while the A6260KLJ-T ships in tube format. Per FindIC cross-reference data, terminals and packages are consistent and the parts are functionally interchangeable for design purposes.
What AEC-Q100 grade is the A6260KLJTR-T qualified to?
The A6260KLJTR-T is qualified to AEC-Q100 for automotive applications per the Arrow Electronics listing and Allegro product page as of 2026-10-06. Specific temperature grade (typically Grade 1 at -40 C to +125 C for automotive LED drivers) should be confirmed in the full datasheet before committing to under-hood placements.
Can the A6260KLJTR-T do PWM dimming?
Yes, the A6260KLJTR-T includes a dedicated PWM dimming control input pin. Driving this pin with a logic-level PWM signal above ~100 Hz modulates the LED current between full-scale and zero, achieving wide-range dimming without color shift, per the Allegro datasheet.
Where do I download the A6260KLJTR-T datasheet PDF?
The official A6260 datasheet PDF is hosted by Allegro MicroSystems at allegromicro.com/~/media/Files/Datasheets/A6260-Datasheet.pdf. Third-party mirrors exist on alldatasheet.com and digchip.com, but always cross-check the revision letter and content against the manufacturer file.
What is the A6260KLJTR-T pinout in 8-SOIC-EP?
The A6260KLJTR-T 8-SOIC-EP pinout assigns pin 1 to supply input, pin 2 to enable/PWM dim, pin 3 to ground, pins 4-5 to SENSE/load, pin 6 to load, pin 7 to NC, and pin 8 to logic, with the exposed pad (pin 9 mechanical) serving as the thermal anchor. Refer to the Allegro datasheet pin diagram for the exact assignment on the LJ package.
How does the A6260KLJTR-T compare to a switching LED driver?
The A6260KLJTR-T is a linear regulator that dissipates the excess voltage as heat, so efficiency equals VLED/Vsupply (typically 50-70%). A switching LED driver is more efficient (>90%) but adds an inductor, EMI, and complexity. Choose linear for EMI-sensitive or compact automotive interiors, and switching when efficiency matters more than noise.
When should I choose the A6260KLJTR-T over a switching LED driver?
Choose the A6260KLJTR-T when the supply-to-LED voltage differential is small (under ~5 V), when zero EMI switching noise is mandatory, when PCB area is constrained (no inductor needed), and when AEC-Q100 qualification with proven automotive reliability is required. Choose a switching driver when the VIN-VLED differential exceeds several volts and efficiency dominates the design budget.
What is the best drop-in replacement for the A6260KLJTR-T?
Per FindIC cross-reference data, the A6260KLJ-T (tube-packaged variant of the same die) is the closest drop-in replacement sharing the 8-SOIC-EP (LJ) footprint and identical electrical specifications. For alternative Allegro LED drivers in the same family with higher current capability, the A6217KLJTR-1-T shares the package but requires re-validating RSENSE and PWM logic.
What are the key specifications of the A6260KLJTR-T that engineers should know?
The A6260KLJTR-T delivers up to 350 mA with 4% accuracy from a 6 V to 40 V supply, integrates reverse-battery protection, PWM dimming, LED short-circuit and thermal shutdown protection, and ships in an 8-SOIC-EP package with 100% matte-tin lead-free plating. It is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive interior and exterior LED lighting per the Allegro datasheet.

選定ガイド

Choose the A6260KLJTR-T when you need a 350 mA linear LED current regulator with AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive interior or exterior lighting where zero switching EMI and minimal PCB area are required. The integrated reverse-battery protection makes it ideal for any automotive bus (12 V or 24 V) where reverse-polarity events are possible. If you need higher current (up to 1 A) for the same LED string count, step up to the A6217KLJTR-1-T which shares the 8-SOIC-EP footprint. For non-automotive industrial applications without load-dump concerns, a switching LED driver may deliver better efficiency when the supply-to-LED differential exceeds several volts, but the A6260KLJTR-T remains the right pick where EMI, BOM size, and automotive pedigree dominate the decision.

主な差別化要因

  • Integrated reverse-battery protection eliminates external blocking diode (vs Discrete LED driver designs with external MOSFET + Schottky diode)

  • AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive lighting (vs Industrial-grade linear LED drivers)

設計ノート

Estimated: At Vsupply = 24 V, VLED = 9 V (3 series LEDs) and ILED = 350 mA, the linear regulator dissipates approximately (24 - 9) * 0.350 = 5.25 W. The 8-SOIC-EP package requires a substantial copper pour on the EP to keep the junction below 150 C. Use at least 1 square inch of 2 oz copper tied to the EP and stitch vias to the inner ground plane for chassis-mounted automotive applications.

Place the RSENSE resistor as close as possible to the SENSE pin and the device GND to minimize parasitic resistance that would degrade current accuracy. Keep the high-current LED loop (LOAD -> LED string -> GND) physically short and away from sensitive analog or RF traces, because even though the A6260 is a linear regulator, the load-current return path can inject common-mode noise on the ground plane.

Do not exceed the 40 V absolute maximum on VCC, even briefly - automotive load-dump transients can reach 35-40 V and destroy the part. Add a TVS diode (e.g., SMAJ33CA) on the supply rail for additional margin. Ensure the LED string forward voltage stays at least 3 V below VCC to maintain regulation; if VIN drops during cold-crank, the regulator will fall out of regulation and the LEDs will dim.
