Description
Specifications (typical at 25°C and after warm up time unless otherwise specified )
The RACD60 is a compact universal input voltage 60W constant current power module suitable for driving high power LEDs.
The RACD60 series have active power factor correction, universal input voltage range and are fully protected against
output short circuit, overload and over-temperature. Three versions are available: a low cost open-frame with either internal
(/OF) or external user-adjustable current limit (/TOF), and a sealed IP67 potted version (/IP67) with factory set output
currents for outdoor or high humidity applications. The LED driver is a class II power supply with CSA, UL and CE
certifications and comes with a five year warranty.

The /TOF offers the possibility to derate the output current
with an external voltage or PWM signal.
Thermal feedback derating is an effective way to reduce the
LED current at high temperatures to avoid over-stressing
the LED.

Application Information
LEDs are typically wired in series to make a string of LEDs and then the strings can be wired in parallel to generate enough light. If only two or
three strings are wired in parallel then it is recommended to add resistors (e.g. 0.5R) to each string to help balance out the LED currents in each
string. All strings must share a common heatsink for better current matching.

A typical 1W high brightness white LED has a forward voltage of around 3.3V at its operating temperature and draws 350mA. Thus each LED
actually draws about 1.15W. Similarly, 3W white LEDs have usually the same forward voltage but can be run at 700mA or more. Using the LED
datasheet specification, the optimum LED arrangement and the best driver for each application can be worked out.
The tables below show some examples.Other LED combinations may have different forward voltages at their recommended operating currents.
