3 Description
The LM3429 is a versatile high voltage N-channel
MosFET controller for LED drivers. It can be easily
configured in buck, boost, buck-boost and SEPIC
topologies. This flexibility, along with an input voltage
rating of 75V, makes the LM3429 ideal for
illuminating LEDs in a very diverse, large family of
applications.
Adjustable high-side current sense voltage allows for
tight regulation of the LED current with the highest
efficiency possible. The LM3429 uses Predictive Off-
time (PRO) control, which is a combination of peak
current-mode control and a predictive off-timer. This
method of control eases the design of loop
compensation while providing inherent input voltage
feed-forward compensation.
The LM3429 includes a high-voltage startup regulator
that operates over a wide input range of 4.5 V to 75
V. The internal PWM controller is designed for
adjustable switching frequencies of up to 2 MHz, thus
enabling compact solutions. Additional features
include analog dimming, PWM dimming, overvoltage
protection, undervoltage lock-out, cycle-by-cycle
current limit, and thermal shutdown.
