DescripTion

lers designed to operate as a constant-current source for

driving high current LEDs. They drive a low side external

N-channelpowerMOSFETfromaninternalregulated7.15V

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 LT3755/LT3755-1/LT3755-2 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.
