LT3761/LT3761-1 60VIN LED Controller with Internal PWM Generator FeaTuresDescripTion n 3000:1 True Color PWM™ Dimming for LEDs The LT®3761/LT3761-1 is a DC/DC controller designed to n Wide VIN Range: 4.5V to 60V operate as a constant-current source and constant-voltage n Rail-to-Rail Current Sense Range: 0V to 80V regulator. It features a programmable internal PWM dim- n Programmable PWM Dimming Signal Generator ming signal. The LT3761/LT3761-1 is ideally suited for n Constant Current (±3%) and Constant-Voltage driving high current LEDs, but also has features to make (±2%) Regulation it suitable for charging batteries and supercapacitors. n Analog Dimming The fixed frequency, current mode architecture results in n Drives LEDs in Boost, SEPIC, Inverting, Buck Mode, stable operation over a wide range of supply and output Buck-Boost Mode, or Flyback Configuration voltages. A voltage feedback pin serves as the input for n Output Short-Circuit Protected Boost several LED protection features, and also makes it possible n Open LED Protection for the converter to operate as a constant-voltage source. n Adjustable Switching Frequency: 100kHz to 1MHz A frequency adjust pin allows the user to program the n Programmable VIN UVLO with Hysteresis frequency from 100kHz to 1MHz to optimize efficiency, n C/10 Indication for Battery Chargers performance or external component size. The LT3761-1 n Low Shutdown Current: <1µA can be synchronized to an external clock. n Thermally Enhanced 16-Lead MSOP Package The LT3761/LT3761-1 senses output current at the high n Open LED Status Pin (LT3761) side or at the low side of the load. The PWM input can be n Frequency Synchronization (LT3761-1) configured to self-oscillate at fixed frequency with duty applicaTions ratio programmable from 4% to 96%. When driven by an external signal, the PWM input provides LED dimming n High Voltage LED Strings >100V with Ground ratios of up to 3000:1. The CTRL input provides additional Referred Current Sense analog dimming capability. n L Grounded Anode LEDs , LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology and the Linear logo are registered trademarks and True Color PWM is a trademark of Analog Devices, Inc.
