Product details
Overview
PX8244HDMG008XTMA1 from Infineon Technologies is a high-precision, 8-channel digital current sink driver IC for LED backlighting and industrial LED arrays. It supports 12-bit PWM dimming control per channel, delivers up to 50 mA per channel with ±1.5% current matching, and operates over –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature. Used in automotive instrument cluster displays and industrial HMI panels requiring uniform multi-LED intensity control.
For engineers reviewing the PX8244HDMG008XTMA1 datasheet, PX8244HDMG008XTMA1 pinout, PX8244HDMG008XTMA1 application, or PX8244HDMG008XTMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include per-channel current accuracy, thermal derating behavior at 125°C, PWM frequency tolerance (up to 25 kHz), and I²C address configuration options for daisy-chained operation.
Technical Context
This device integrates eight matched current sinks with independent 12-bit PWM generators and a shared I²C interface supporting standard (100 kHz) and fast-mode (400 kHz) speeds. Internal reference trimming ensures ±1.5% channel-to-channel current matching across voltage (4.5–40 V) and temperature (–40°C to +125°C) ranges.
Thermal protection includes overtemperature shutdown with automatic recovery and open-load detection per channel via feedback voltage monitoring. The IC uses a single external sense resistor to set full-scale current, eliminating per-channel calibration components.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED current sink driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC5947 (Texas Instruments) | 24-channel, 12-bit PWM, but only ±3% current matching and max 15 mA/channel | Better suited for low-current indicator LEDs; insufficient for automotive backlight intensity demands | Select when scaling beyond 8 channels is required and per-channel current ≤15 mA is acceptable |
| ASL2415SHN (Nexperia) | 8-channel, ±2% matching, no integrated PWM generator - requires external MCU PWM signals | Requires additional GPIO resources and timing coordination; lacks built-in open-load detection | Select when system already provides synchronized PWM clocks and fault handling is implemented externally |
Compared with TLC5947 and ASL2415SHN, PX8244HDMG008XTMA1 uniquely combines automotive-grade thermal robustness (125°C), tight ±1.5% matching, and self-contained 12-bit PWM generation - reducing MCU load and enabling direct drop-in use in safety-critical backlight systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for continuous operation?
The PX8244HDMG008XTMA1 has a maximum junction temperature of 150°C. Thermal shutdown activates at this threshold and recovers automatically when junction temperature falls below 140°C. Derating curves in the official datasheet specify 50 mA/channel is maintainable up to 85°C case temperature; above that, current must be reduced linearly to 0 mA at 125°C ambient.
Does the device support daisy-chained I²C communication?
No, PX8244HDMG008XTMA1 does not support true daisy-chaining. It uses standard I²C addressing with hardware-selectable addresses (0x40–0x47) via ADDR0–ADDR2 pins. Multiple units require individual SDA/SCL connections to the host controller, though they share the same bus lines with unique addresses.
Can the PWM frequency be adjusted, and what is the supported range?
Yes, the internal PWM generator frequency is programmable from 100 Hz to 25 kHz via I²C register settings. The default is 1 kHz. Frequencies above 1 kHz eliminate audible noise; frequencies ≥20 kHz prevent visible flicker in video applications. Frequency selection affects resolution trade-offs - higher frequencies reduce effective bit depth below 12-bit at extremes.
How is open-load detection implemented per channel?
Each OUTx pin is monitored for voltage exceeding 2.5 V during active sinking. If detected, the corresponding bit in the I²C status register is set, and the FAULT pin is pulled low. Detection occurs within 10 µs of open-circuit event and remains asserted until cleared via I²C command or power cycle - no external circuitry required.
