Output voltage and current — sizing the LED string
The driver regulates current at 350 mA per channel, with the output voltage compliance reaching 39.45 V. The LED forward voltage plus any series resistance must stay below 39.45 V at the set current.
Lifecycle and sourcing — active production, no obsolescence concern
The MAX16836ATE+ carries an active lifecycle status with ROHS3 compliance. No official second source or pin-compatible replacement is listed, but the part is not approaching discontinuation.
