Lighting Protection

open LED protectorLED bypass shunt6 V VDRMQFN 3x3PWM up to 10 kHzRoHS

PLED6Q12 is a 6 V-class open-LED bypass protector for a single LED position in a series string. It switches into a shunt path after an LED open-circuit failure.

Best for

  • Series LED strings requiring continued operation after one LED opens
  • Industrial, warning, aircraft, and automotive lighting assemblies

Avoid if

  • The protected LED position requires a bypass threshold outside the stated 6 V to 16 V breakdown range
  • Lifecycle or regulatory details must be confirmed before release

Check before use

  • Breakdown voltage versus LED operating voltage
  • Fault current and thermal dissipation
  • QFN cathode-bar orientation
  • Availability and lifecycle status
