LT3754
16-Channel × 50mA
LED Driver
Description
The LT®3754 is a 16-channel LED driver with a step-up
DC/DC controller capable of driving up to 45V of LEDs.
Each channel contains an accurate current sink with ±2.8%
current matching. Channels follow a master programmable
current to allow between 10mA to 50mA of LED current
per string. Channels can be paralleled for higher LED
current. Output voltage adapts to variations in LED VF for
optimum efficiency and open LED faults do not affect the
operation of connected LED strings.
The LT3754 allows a PWM dimming range up to 3000:1
and an analog dimming range up to 25:1. Operating
frequency can be programmed from 100kHz up to 1MHz
using a single resistor or synchronized to an external clock.
Additional features include: programmable maximum
VOUT for open LED protection, a fault flag for open LED,
programmable LED current derating vs temperature,
micropower shutdown and internal soft-start. The LT3754
is available in a thermally enhanced 5mm × 5mm 32-pin
QFN package.
