Description

The STEVAL-ILL058V1 evaluation board is a high

brightness LED array driver application with

diagnostics based on the automotive grade, low

voltage, 8-bit constant current LED sink driver

STAP08DP05 from STMicroelectronics.

The LED driver is configured and controlled

through an 8-bit automotive grade STM8A

microcontroller via SPI interface.

An automotive grade A5974D DC-DC converter

provides the voltages and power for the overall

functioning of the board.
