A8519KLPTR-T

Allegro MicroSystems, LLC · LED Drivers · TSSOP-20-EP

A8519KLPTR-T from Allegro MicroSystems, LLC, in a TSSOP-20-EP. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 COMP passive Output of the error amplifier and compensation node; connect an Rz-Cz-Cp network from this pin to GND for control loop compensation.
2 PGND power_in Power ground for the internal N-channel MOSFET switching device; connect to the PCB ground plane.
3 OVP input Overvoltage protection input; connect an external resistor from VOUT to this pin to set the overvoltage protection level (OVP pin threshold 7 V to 9.5 V).
4 VOUT input Connect directly to the boost output voltage; maximum output voltage is 40 V.
5 SW passive Drain of the internal N-channel MOSFET switch of the boost converter; the SW pin is rated -0.6 V to 42 V continuous.
6 GATE output Gate driver output for control of an external P-channel MOSFET input disconnect switch.
7 VSENSE input Connect to the negative side of the current sense resistor RSC; the threshold is measured as VIN minus VSENSE, with a fixed current sink for trip threshold adjustment.
8 VIN power_in Input power to the IC and the positive input for the current sense resistor; the input voltage range is 4.5 V to 40 V.
9 FAULT output Open-drain fault output that is pulled low when a fault occurs; connect a 100 kΩ resistor between this pin and the desired logic level voltage.
10 CLKOUT output Logic output representing the internal boost oscillator switching frequency, allowing other converters to be synchronized to it.
11 VDD power_out Output of the internal LDO bias regulator; connect a 1 µF decoupling capacitor between this pin and GND.
12 APWM input Analog trimming or dimming input; applying a digital PWM signal to this pin adjusts the internal IISET current.
13 PWM input Enables the IC when pulled high and controls LED intensity by pulse-width modulation; typical PWM dimming frequency is 100 Hz to 400 Hz.
14 FSET input Frequency and synchronization pin; a resistor RFSET from this pin to GND sets the switching frequency, or an external clock from 320 kHz to 2.3 MHz synchronizes it with dithering disabled.
15 ISET input Connect the RISET resistor between this pin and GND to set the desired LED current.
16 AGND power_in LED current ground; connect to the PCB ground plane.
17 LED1 input LED current sink #1; connect the cathode of the LED string to this pin, and terminate it to GND through 3.09 kΩ if unused.
18 LED2 input LED current sink #2; connect the cathode of the LED string to this pin, and terminate it to GND through 3.09 kΩ if unused.
19 LED3 input LED current sink #3; connect the cathode of the LED string to this pin, and terminate it to GND through 3.09 kΩ if unused.
20 LED4 input LED current sink #4; connect the cathode of the LED string to this pin, and terminate it to GND through 3.09 kΩ if unused.
21 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).
