Product details

What the 65V input and 1MHz switching mean for the BOM

The 65V maximum input voltage lets the controller sit directly on 12V, 24V, or 48V automotive buses without a pre-regulator — useful for truck, bus, and off-highway vehicle lighting where the battery rail can spike well above nominal. Because the controller does not integrate internal switches, the external MOSFET and sense resistor selection determines the actual LED current capacity; the controller itself handles the loop compensation and dimming interface.

The 28-TSSOP-EP package with exposed pad helps pull heat into the PCB ground plane.

Frequently asked questions

Can MAX20097AUI/V+ be used in headlight applications?

Yes, the part is specified for automotive lighting applications and supports both analog and PWM dimming, which are typical requirements for headlamp and daytime-running-light modules. The 65V input rating covers 12V and 24V automotive bus transients.
