- UV curing LED & laser light sources
- Automotive laser headlights
- High-power LED lighting (RV, industrial, outdoor)
Safety Notes
- Apply 3.3β5.5V DC or GPIO high level to the EN pin.
- Start from ADJ = 0V / PWM = 0%, then gradually increase brightness.
- Do not reverse polarity or short output; may cause permanent damage.
- Always wear certified laser safety goggles during operation.
- Ensure proper cooling: 40Γ40mm fan or heatsink with thermal pads.
