JW1221A

JoulWatt Tech · LED Drivers · SOT-23-6

JW1221A from JoulWatt Tech, in a SOT-23-6. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VIN power_in Power supply input internally clamped to 32V typical with startup threshold 16.5V typical, UVLO threshold 11.5V minimum, and quiescent current of 0.3mA typical in 17-27V operating range.
2 GND power_in Ground reference.
3 VC bidirectional LED current ripple programming capacitive interface rated -0.3V to 6V with typical startup current 0.65mA and external capacitor determining ripple frequency and amplitude.
4 VG output NMOSFET gate driver output with maximum voltage 10.5V typical and absolute maximum rating of 20V.
5 VS power_in LED current sense input from NMOSFET source limited to 0.255V typical maximum with absolute maximum 6V for maximum current protection.
6 VLMT input LED drain voltage limit and short protection programming input via external resistor rated -0.3V to 6V where external resistor sets voltage thresholds.
