DRV8860: LED dimming: sourcing small currents

Part Number: DRV8860

Hi Team,

customer is considering using DRV8860A for solenoid and LED control.

They have following question:

is the DRV8860A capable of sourcing the small current within the order of 5, 10 and 20 mA’s?

Is there a AP note for this specific application?

BR,
Stefan

  • Hi Stefan,

    is the DRV8860A capable of sourcing the small current within the order of 5, 10 and 20 mA’s?

    The device can source this current but the accuracy may not be stable since component tolerances have a bigger effect on the current output variation. If you'll like to test with your load, please order an evaluation module for testing.

    Is there a AP note for this specific application?

    We don't have an app note on this specific application.
