NTE1502
Integrated Circuit
5Step LED Driver Circuit
for Linear Response
Description:
The NTE1502 is an integrated circuit in a 9Lead SIP type package designed for driving 5LED bar
graphs or dot displays so that the LEDs may light linearly for input signal. Brightness of the LEDs can
be controlled by using the output current adjustment pin provided.
