ACS5500BU 5.5A (Buck) Laser Diode Driver
ACS5500BU - the next generation of compact buck drivers that came to replace the BlackBuck 3 and BlackBuck 6. Designed to power laser diodes or LEDs from batteries or other power sources. Major improvements and differences from BlackBuck 3/6 drivers:Extended range of output current adjustmentHigh-side designImproved soft-startCeramic fuse for reverse polarity protectionLarger potentiometerThermal areas on the back side for better heat dissipation Specifications:Supply voltage ........................ 6...14VOutput current (+/- 5%) .................... 0...5800mALoad forward voltage.............. 1.5...6V **Power ON rising time ................ 250msBoard overheat protection .... 140ºCMax dimensions ..................... 30x22x3.5mmMain dimensions .................... 10x16x3.5mm**The supply voltage must exceed the forward voltage of the load by not less than 1V.
