BP3316D Single-Stage APFC Offline LED Driver

BP3316D is a primary side LED driver IC having the main feature of power factor regulation.  LEDs require direct current and low voltage of 12 to 24V to run that is why we use LED driver’s which adjusts higher voltages by rectifying it and converts alternating current to direct current for driving LED’s or LCD’s. The BP3316D is also an LED driver IC. It is a primary-side regulated IC and is commonly used in lighting applications for driving LEDs at constant current. Furthermore, it has an on-chip power factor regulation circuit. Therefore, we do not require an external power factor correction circuit.
