The PLED5HT device is ideal for use in high reliability lighting applications such as traffic lighting, advertising lighting, and runway lighting.The PLED5HT protector provides three methods for increasing the reliability of LED lighting: LED failure protection: If one of the LEDs in an array fails open, the device provides a substitute electronic path so that the array continues to function ESD Protection: It protects against ESD events up to ±8 kV for contact discharges and ±15 kV for air discharges per the IEC 61000-4-2 electrostatic immunity standard. Reverse battery and power protection: It provides protection in the case of accidental reverse battery or power connection.
