To function, the pin requires an external pull-up current less than 1mA. When the PWM input is low ISN (Pin 3/Pin 13): Connection Point for the Negative and the DC/DC converter is idle, the OPENLED condition Terminal of the Current Feedback Resistor. If ISN is greater is latched to the last valid state when the PWM input was than 2.9V, the LED current can be programmed by ILED = high.

Below 3V, ISN is an input to the short-circuit protection feature that forces GATE to 0V if ISP exceeds SYNC (Pin 9/Pin 3, LT3755-1 Only): The SYNC pin is used ISN by more than 150mV (typ). to synchronize the internal oscillator to an external logic level signal.
