ELM413
LED Driver
< http://www.elmelectronics.com/ >The ELM413 is both an LED controller and a
circuit startup timer in an 8 pin package. The high
current capabilities of its outputs allow most LEDs to
be directly driven, usually only requiring a single
current limiting resistor.
The circuit startup, or warmup feature is useful
for allowing a stabilizing time period to pass before
enabling other circuits. This type of function is often
used in audio amplifier circuits where it is desirable
to block the speaker outputs until the amplifier
stages have stabilized. This can eliminate the
annoying ‘pop’ occasionally heard from audio
amplifiers.
The duration of the warmup period is selected
by logic levels on two input pins, providing four
discrete time intervals. All circuit timing is derived
from internal circuitry, and no additional timing
components are required for circuit operation.
