Catalyst Semiconductor, Inc., an advanced supplier of analog, mixed-signal devices and non-volatile memory, announced that the EN-Genius network selected Catalyst's CAT4201, 7-watt boost LED driver as the EN-Genius Network 2007 Product of the Year Award.
The CAT4201 boost LED driver offers a smaller and more energy-efficient "green" product to replace the linear regulators traditionally used to control high-brightness lighting applications.
Paul McGoldrick, editor-in-chief of EN-Genius Network, said that the entire automotive market uses high-current LED lighting. Using a linear regulator is not a good engineering solution. This converter provides better control of the inductor and requires no special thermal design.
Scott Brown, vice president of marketing at Catalyst Semiconductor, said that Catalyst is pleased to receive an award from the EN-Genius network. Our boost LED driver family is proud to receive such a high rating from hundreds of products.
The Product of the Year Award is based on the personal opinions of EN-Genius editors. We believe that these award-winning products will have an important impact on the profitability of participating companies due to their advantages in technology, design innovation and sales. "Our editorial team reviewed the new products that appeared every day and found a lot of valuable products. Looking back on this year, we launched 100 of the hottest products, and the selected products will be very helpful to the design engineers."
About CAT4201
Linear regulators have been used to drive LED groups in 12V or 24V power supply systems, but this architecture generates a lot of heat, resulting in the need for dedicated heat sinks, so it is usually in a very large TO263 package. The CAT4201 uses a patent-pending new switch control algorithm that allows easy control of the average LED current with only one external resistor. This greatly reduces the internal power dissipation of the CAT4201, allowing it to be packaged in a 5-pin TSOT23 package without the need for a dedicated heat sink. In addition, the device's switching frequency is up to 1MHz, making it ideal for applications requiring small and inexpensive external inductors.
