LT3486  
Dual 1.3A White LED  
Step-Up Converters with  
Wide Dimming  
U
FEATURES  
DESCRIPTIO  
The LT®3486 is a dual step-up DC/DC converter  
specifically designed to drive up to 16 White LEDs (8 in  
series per converter) at constant current from a single  
Li-Ion cell. Series connection of the LEDs provides identi-  
cal LED currents resulting in uniform brightness. The two  
independentconvertersarecapableofdrivingasymmetric  
LED strings.  
Wide (1000:1) PWM Dimming Range with No  
ColorShift  
Independent Dimming and Shutdown Control of the  
LED Drivers  
Drives Up to 16 White LEDs at 25mA (8 per Driver)  
from a Single Li-Ion Cell  
Drives Up to 16 White LEDs at 100mA (8 per Driver)  
from 12V Supply  
The dimming of the two LED strings can be controlled  
independently via the respective CTRL pins. An internal  
dimmingsystemallowsthedimmingrangetobeextended  
up to 1000:1 by feeding a PWM signal to the respective  
PWMpins.TheLT3486operatingfrequencycanbesetwith  
an external resistor over a 200kHz to 2MHz range. A low  
200mVfeedbackvoltage( 3accuracy)minimizespower  
loss in the current setting resistor for better efficiency.  
Additional features include output voltage limiting when  
LEDs are disconnected and overtemperature protection.

device may be impaired.  
Note ±: Current flows out of the pin.  
Note 4: Guaranteed by design and test correlation, not production tested.  
Note 2: The LT3486E is guaranteed to meet specified performance from  
0°C to 70°C and is designed, characterized and expected to meet these

It incorporates two identical, but fully independent PWM  
converters.Operationcanbebestunderstoodbyreferring

control etc., are all identical for both converters.  
Minimum Output Current  
The LT3486 can drive an 8-LED string at 4mA LED current  
without pulse skipping. As current is further reduced, the  
device may begin skipping pulses. This will result in some  
low frequency ripple, although the LED current remains  
regulated on an average basis down to zero. The photo  
in Figure 2 shows circuit operation with 8 white LEDs  
at 4mA current driven from 3.6V supply. Peak inductor  
current is less than 200mA and the regulator operates in  
discontinuous mode implying that the inductor current  
reachedzeroduringthedischargephase.Aftertheinductor  
currentreacheszero, theswitchpinexhibitsringingdueto  
the LC tank circuit formed by the inductor in combination  
with switch and diode capacitance. This ringing is not  
harmful;farlessspectralenergyiscontainedintheringing  
than in the switch transitions. The ringing can be damped  
by application of a 300Ω resistor across the inductors,  
although this will degrade efficiency.  
At power-up, the output capacitors of both converters are  
chargeduptoV (inputsupplyvoltage)viatheirrespective

inductor and the Schottky diode. If the SHDN pin is taken  
above 1.6V, the bandgap reference, start-up bias and the  
oscillator are turned on. Grounding the SHDN pin shuts  
down the part.  
TheCTRL1andCTRL2pinsperformindependentdimming  
and shutdown control for the two converters. Taking  
the CTRL pins high, enables the respective converters.  
Connecting these pins to ground, shuts down each  
converter by pulling their respective V pin low.  
C
Working of the main control loop can be understood by  
following the operation of converter 1. At the start of  
each oscillator cycle, the power switch Q1 is turned on.  
A voltage proportional to the switch current is added to  
a stabilizing ramp and the resulting sum is fed into the  
positive terminal of the PWM comparator A2. When this  
voltage exceeds the level at the negative input of A2, the  
PWM logic turns off the power switch. The level at the  
negative input of A2 is set by the error amplifier A1, and  
is simply an amplified version of the difference between  
the feedback voltage and the 200mV reference voltage. In  
this manner, the error amplifier A1 regulates the feedback  
voltage to 200mV reference voltage. The output of the  
error amplifier A1 sets the correct peak current level in  
inductor L1 to keep the output in regulation. The CTRL1  
pin voltage is used to adjust the reference voltage.

Soft-Start  
The LT3486 has a separate internal soft-start circuitry for  
each converter. Soft-start helps to limit the inrush current

The converter enters into soft-start mode whenever the  
respective CTRL pin is pulled from low to high. Figure 4

In the event one of the converters has an output open-

Induꢀtor Seleꢀtion  
The choice of the inductor will depend on the selection of  
switching frequency of LT3486. The switching frequency  
canbeprogrammedfrom200kHzto2MHz.Higherswitch-  
ing frequency allows the use of smaller inductors albeit  
at the cost of increased switching losses.  
Capaꢀitor Seleꢀtion  
The small size of ceramic capacitors make them ideal  
for LT3486 applications. Use only X5R and X7R types  
because they retain their capacitance over wider voltage  
and temperature ranges than other types such as Y5V  
or Z5U. A 4.7µF or larger input capacitor is sufficient for  
most applications. Always use a capacitor with sufficient  
voltage rating.

Most low power white LEDs are driven at maximum cur-  
rents of 15mA to 25mA. The LT3486 can be used to power  
high power LEDs as well. Refer to the Typical Applications  
for more detail.  
When the LT3486 is set up for PWM dimming operation,  
choose a Schottky diode with low reverse leakage current.  
During PWM dimming operation, the output capacitor is  
required to hold up the charge in the PWM “off” period.  
A low reverse leakage Schottky helps in that mode of op-  
eration. The Zetex ZLLS400 and ZLLS1000 are available  
in a small surface mount package and are a good fit for  
this application.  
Dimming Control  
The dimming of the two LED strings can be controlled  
independently by modulating the respective CTRL and  
PWM pins. There are two ways to control the intensity  
of the LEDs.

ThepowerMOSFETusedinLT3486applicationswithwide  
dimming range requirements should be chosen based on  
the maximum drain-source voltage. The maximum drain  
Adjusting the LED Current Value  
Controlling the current flowing through the LEDs controls  
the intensity of the LEDs.This is the easiest way to control  
the intensity of the LEDs. The LED forward current can be  
controlled by modulating the DC voltage at the respective  
CRTL pin. The PWM pins are not in use when appying  
this scheme. They must be connected to a 0.9V supply or  
higher. The DC voltage at the CTRL pin can be modulated  
in two ways.

FairchildSemiconductor’sFDN5630(60V,1.7AN-channel

ming low current LEDs (~25mA), Fairchild 2N7002 is a

(b) Using a Filtered PWM Signal  
A variable duty cycle PWM can be used to control the  
brightness of the LED string. The PWM signal is filtered  
(Figure 7) by an RC network and fed to the CTRL1, CTRL2  
pins.  
Dimming the LEDs via a PWM signal essentially involves  
turning the LEDs on and off at the PWM frequency. The  
human eye has a limit of 60 frames per second. By in-  
creasing the PWM frequency to say, 80Hz, the eye can  
be deceived into believing that the pulsed light source is  
continously on. Additionally by modulating the duty cycle  
(amount of “on-time”), the intensity of the LEDs can be  
controlled. The color of the LEDs remains unchanged in  
this scheme since the LED current value is either zero or  
a constant value.  
The corner frequency of R1, C1 should be much lower  
than the frequency of the PWM signal. R1 needs to be  
much smaller than the internal impedance in the CTRL  
pins, which is 100kΩ.

properlayoutofhighfrequencyswitchingpathsisessential.  
Minimize the length and area of all traces connected to the  
switching node pins (SW1 and SW2). Keep the feedback  
pins (FB1 and FB2) away from the switching nodes.  
The dimming control pins (PWM1, PWM2) can be used  
to extend the dimming range for the individual switching  
converters. The LED current can be controlled down to  
µA levels by feeding a PWM signal with frequencies in the  
rangeof80Hzto50kHz. TheLEDcurrentcanbecontrolled  
by PWM frequencies above 50kHz but the controllable  
current decreases with increasing frequency. Pulling the  
PWM pins below 0.4V disables the respective switcher.  
Taking it higher than 0.9V resumes normal operation.  
Connect these pins to 0.9V or higher if not in use.  
The DFN and FE packages both have an exposed paddle  
that must be connected to the system ground. The ground  
connectionforthefeedbackresistorsshouldbetieddirectly  
to the ground plane and not shared with any other compo-  
nent, except the R resistor, ensuring a clean, noise-free  
T
connection. Recommendedcomponentplacementforthe
