LED Controller
DESCRIPTION
The LT^®3756 and LT3756-1 are DC/DC controllers designed
to operate as a constant-current source for driving high
current LEDs. They drive a low side external N-channel
power MOSFET from an internal regulated 7V supply. The
fixed frequency, current-mode architecture results in stable
operation over a wide range of supply and output voltages.
A ground referenced voltage FB pin serves as the input for
several LED protection features, and also makes it possible
for the converter to operate as a constant-voltage source.
A frequency adjust pin allows the user to program the
frequency from 100kHz to 1MHz to optimize efficiency,
performance or external component size.
The LT3756/LT3756-1 sense output current at the high
side of the LED string. High side current sensing is the
most flexible scheme for driving LEDs, allowing boost,
buck mode or buck-boost mode configuration. The PWM
input provides LED dimming ratios of up to 3000:1, and the
CTRL input provides additional analog dimming capability.
Both parts are available in the 16-lead QFN (3mm × 3mm)
and MSOP packages.
