Specifications of MAX16836EVKIT+

• Current - Output / Channel: 350mA
• Outputs And Type: 1, Non-Isolated
• Voltage - Output: 5V
• Features: Dimmable, Extra 5V Output
• Voltage - Input: 6.5 ~ 40V

The application circuit in Figure 6 implements a two-
level brightness current for TAIL/STOP lights. In TAIL
operation, Q1 is off and the R1 sets the output current.
In STOP operation, Q1 turns on and the output current
is set by a parallel combination of R1 and R2.
