onsemi NCV7694 LED Driver is a device that drives a string of Infra-Red (IR) LEDs using an external MOSFET. The IR LEDs are used to illuminate the surroundings of the image sensor. This LED driver’s features prevent the IR LEDs from being ON too long due to an inappropriate exposure time. The NCV7694 LED driver with hardware interlocks helps protect the users’ eyes in cases where the control signal has failed. This device can also detect open load, short circuit to GND, and Voltage Supply (VS). The NCV7694 LED driver is available in a 10-pin DFN package. Applications include in-cabin monitoring sensors, infrared illumination for automotive cameras, machine vision systems, and surveillance systems.
