Product details
Overview
CY8CLED03D02-56LTXI from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress) is a PowerPSoC® intelligent LED driver IC integrating an 8-bit M8C CPU core, programmable analog/digital peripherals, and high-voltage gate drivers for standalone LED current regulation. It delivers up to 40 V sink-side output capability, supports I²C interface (up to 400 kHz), operates from 2.7–5.5 V supply, and features integrated hysteretic controller and current sense amplifier for closed-loop dimming in constant-current LED systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY8CLED03D02-56LTXI datasheet, CY8CLED03D02-56LTXI pinout, CY8CLED03D02-56LTXI application, or CY8CLED03D02-56LTXI equivalent, this device serves as a configurable, single-chip LED lighting controller with embedded firmware execution, analog feedback processing, and high-side/low-side switching control - critical for industrial signage, architectural lighting, and automotive interior LED modules requiring programmable dimming profiles and thermal-aware current regulation.
Technical Context
The CY8CLED03D02-56LTXI implements a mixed-signal PSoC architecture where the M8C CPU executes user firmware to configure and manage on-die analog blocks-including a 12-bit current sense amplifier (±1% gain error), hysteretic PWM controller with adjustable frequency (10–500 kHz), and digital modulator for precise current regulation. Its analog array includes continuous-time and switched-capacitor blocks enabling real-time LED current monitoring and adaptive dimming.
It integrates dedicated power peripherals: gate drivers capable of driving external N-channel MOSFETs (up to 40 V drain-source), internal voltage reference (1.2 V ±1%), and I²C slave interface for host configuration. All analog signal paths are routed through a programmable analog multiplexer supporting dynamic reconfiguration during runtime without CPU intervention.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Core | M8C 8-bit RISC CPU running at up to 24 MHz - enables real-time firmware-based LED control logic and fault handling |
| LED Drive Capability | 40 V sink-side output voltage rating - supports high-brightness LED strings up to 10–12 V forward drop per string |
| I²C Interface | Standard/fast-mode (100/400 kHz) slave-only - allows host MCU to configure dimming curves, overcurrent thresholds, and thermal limits |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar intelligent LED driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IS31FL3731-QFLS4-TR | 18-channel LED driver with built-in PWM engine; no CPU core or programmable analog; I²C only; max 40 V sink not supported | Limited to low-voltage (≤5.5 V) LED strings; no current sensing or closed-loop regulation | Select when fixed-channel count and simple dimming suffice; avoid for high-VF or thermally variable designs |

FAQ
Does CY8CLED03D02-56LTXI support standalone operation without an external microcontroller?
Yes. The integrated M8C CPU core executes user firmware stored in on-chip flash, enabling fully autonomous LED control - including current regulation, thermal derating, fault response, and I²C command interpretation - without requiring an external host MCU.
What is the maximum LED string voltage supported on the OUT pins?
The OUT pins are rated for 40 V DC sink-side operation. This supports LED strings with total forward voltage up to ~36 V (accounting for 4 V headroom), such as 10× white LEDs (3.6 V each) or 12× red LEDs (3.0 V each), under nominal thermal conditions.
Can the current sense amplifiers measure bidirectional current?
No. The CSIN inputs are configured for unidirectional, low-side shunt measurement only. Each amplifier measures voltage drop across a resistor between LED cathode and VSSA, providing positive-only current values with 12-bit resolution and ±1% gain accuracy.
Is the 56-pin QFN package thermally enhanced for continuous LED drive loads?
Yes. The package includes an exposed thermal pad (EPAD) electrically tied to VSSA. When soldered to ≥2 cm² of inner-layer copper pour with ≥6 thermal vias, it enables >1.5 W continuous power dissipation - sufficient for driving four 350 mA LED channels at full load with ≤25°C rise above ambient.
