STEVAL-ILL073V1, Evaluation Board based on ALED1642GW and STM8A RGB LED driver for Automotive Lighting

STEVAL-ILL073V1, Evaluation Board is a high brightness, RGB LED array driver system with local dimming and diagnostics based on the ALED1642GW independent PWM LED driver controlled through an STM8A microcontroller SPI interface. A 16 RGB LED matrix is driven by three ALED1642GW LED drivers, one for each channel, i.e., Red, Green and Blue. The evaluation board is also equipped with jumpers to simulate LED open circuit and LED short circuit faults and a 4-pin SWIM connector to debug and to develop the STM8 microcontroller firmware. The STEVAL-ILL073V1 has two modes of operation: in Standalone mode, the evaluation board is controlled via on-board buttons and a potentiometer, in GUI mode, a Graphical User Interface is provided to represent the drivers
