Evaluation Board Schematic
Evaluation Board Layout
Quick Start Guide
- By default, the evaluation board is preset at 140mA LED Current by R5 and R6. Non‐Dimmable by R2, remove R2 to allow PWM Dimming input.
- Ensure that the AC source is switched OFF or disconnected.
- Connect the AC line wires of power supply to “AC+ and AC‐” on the left side of the board.
- Connect the anode wire of external LED string to LED+ output test point.
- Connect the cathode wire of external LED string to LED‐ output test point.
- Turn on the main switch. LED string should light up.
