10-channel constant-current sink for backlight strings
The MAX6966AEE+ is a linear LED driver from Analog Devices, designed to sink 20 mA per channel across 10 outputs, with a maximum output voltage of 7 V.
Thermal and package considerations for the BOM
Housed in a 16-QSOP (3.90 mm wide SSOP footprint), the surface-mount package suits automated assembly lines and keeps the profile low for slim bezel designs.
The part ships in Tube packaging, which aligns with low-to-medium volume production runs. RoHS3 compliant; no lead or restricted substance exemptions to track for EU or California market compliance.
