LED matrix manager IC lights up adaptive automotive headlights market

摘要

The TPS92661-Q1 is the first fully integrated high-brightness LED matrix manager IC that enables automobile manufacturers to create innovative LED headlamps that vary beam patterns and intensity dynamically for optimum roadway illumination and enhanced driver safety. Until now, headlamp beam forming and directional control in an adaptive headlamp design required considerable board space to house bulky discrete circuits, including multiple transistors, gate drivers, and glue logic. A single TPS92661-Q1 replaces this complex design, reducing board space by 73%, and enables a headlamp system that is completely solid state with no moving parts that can wear out, such as motors or actuators.
