3000:1 True Color PWM™ Dimming
The LT®3756, LT3756-1 and LT3756-2 are DC/DC control-
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.

CTRL Pin Provides Analog Dimming
The LT3756/LT3756-1/LT3756-2 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.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 3: The LT3756 includes overtemperature protection that is intended
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed the maximum operating junction temperature
when overtemperature protection is active. Continuous operating above
the specified maximum operating junction temperature may impair device
reliability.
Note 2: The LT3756E, LT3756E-1 and LT3756E-2 are guaranteed to meet
performance specifications from 0°C to 125°C junction temperature.
Specifications over the –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature
range are assured by design, characterization and correlation with
statistical process controls. The LT3756I, LT3756I-1 and LT3756I-2 are
guaranteed to meet performance specifications over the –40°C to 125°C
operating junction temperature range. The LT3756H-2 is guaranteed to
meet performance specifications over the full –40°C to 150°C operating
junction temperature range. High junction temperatures degrade operating
lifetimes. Operating lifetime is derated at junction temperatures greater
than 125°C.
Note 4: GATE and PWMOUT pins are driven either to GND or INTV by
CC
internal switches. Do not connect these pins externally to a power supply.

from INTV , which is an internally regulated supply. In
CC
the discussion that follows, it will be helpful to refer to
the Block Diagram of the IC. In normal operation, with the
PWM pin low, the GATE and PWMOUT pins are driven to
GND, the VC pin is high impedance to store the previous
switching state on the external compensation capacitor,
and the ISP and ISN pin bias currents are reduced to
leakage levels. When the PWM pin transitions high, the
PWMOUT pin transitions high after a short delay. At the
same time, the internal oscillator wakes up and gener-
ates a pulse to set the PWM latch, turning on the external
power MOSFET switch (GATE goes high). A voltage input
proportional to the switch current, sensed by an external
current sense resistor between the SENSE and GND input
pins, is added to a stabilizing slope compensation ramp
and the resulting “switch current sense” signal is fed into
the positive terminal of the PWM comparator. The current
in the external inductor increases steadily during the time
the switch is on. When the switch current sense voltage
exceeds the output of the error amplifier, labeled “VC”,
the latch is reset and the switch is turned off. During the
switch off phase, the inductor current decreases. At the
completion of each oscillator cycle, internal signals such
asslopecompensationreturntotheirstartingpointsanda
new cycle begins with the set pulse from the oscillator.
In voltage feedback mode, the operation is similar to that
described above, except the voltage at the VC pin is set
by the amplified difference of the internal reference of
1.25V (nominal) and the FB pin. If FB is lower than the
reference voltage, the switch current will increase; if FB
is higher than the reference voltage, the switch demand
current will decrease. The LED current sense feedback
interacts with the FB voltage feedback so that FB will not
exceed the internal reference and the voltage between ISP
and ISN will not exceed the threshold set by the CTRL pin.
For accurate current or voltage regulation, it is necessary
to be sure that under normal operating conditions, the
appropriate loop is dominant. To deactivate the voltage
loop entirely, FB can be connected to GND. To deactivate
the LED current loop entirely, the ISP and ISN should be
tied together and the CTRL input tied to V
.
REF
Two LED specific functions featured on the LT3756 are
controlled by the voltage feedback pin. First, when the
FB pin exceeds a voltage 50mV lower (–4%) than the FB
regulation voltage, the pull-down driver on the OPENLED
pin is activated (LT3756 and LT3756-2 only). This function
provides a status indicator that the load may be discon-
nected and the constant-voltage feedback loop is taking
controloftheswitchingregulator.WhentheFBpinexceeds
theFBregulationvoltageby60mV(5%typical), thePWM-
OUT pin is driven low, ignoring the state of the PWM input.
In the case where the PWMOUT pin drives a disconnect
NFET, this action isolates the LED load from GND, prevent-
ing excessive current from damaging the LEDs. If the FB
input exceeds both the open LED and the overvoltage
thresholds, then an externally driven overvoltage event
has caused the FB pin to be too high and the OPENLED
pull-down willbede-asserted. The LT3756-2 willre-assert
the OPENLED signal when FB falls below the overvoltage
threshold and remains above the open LED threshold. The
LT3756 is prevented from re-asserting OPENLED until FB
drops below both thresholds.
Through this repetitive action, the PWM control algorithm
establishes a switch duty cycle to regulate a current or
voltage in the load. The VC signal is integrated over many
switching cycles and is an amplified version of the differ-
ence between the LED current sense voltage, measured
between ISP and ISN, and the target difference voltage
set by the CTRL pin. In this manner, the error amplifier
sets the correct peak switch current level to keep the
LED current in regulation. If the error amplifier output
increases, more current is demanded in the switch; if it
decreases, less current is demanded. The switch current
is monitored during the on-phase and the voltage across
the SENSE pin is not allowed to exceed the current limit
threshold of 108mV (typical). If the SENSE pin exceeds
the current limit threshold, the SR latch is reset regard-
less of the output state of the PWM comparator. Likewise,

varying differential voltage signal (ripple) across ISP and
ISN at the switching frequency is expected. The amplitude
of this signal is increased by high LED load current, low
switching frequency and/or a smaller value output filter
capacitor. Some level of ripple signal is acceptable: the
compensation capacitor on the VC pin filters the signal so
the average difference between ISP and ISN is regulated
to the user-programmed value. Ripple voltage amplitude
(peak-to-peak) in excess of 20mV should not cause mis-
operation, but may lead to noticeable offset between the
average value and the user-programmed value.

ISP/ISN Short-Circuit Protection Feature (for SEPIC)
The ISP and ISN pins have a protection feature indepen-
dent of the LED current sense feature that operates at
ISN below 3V. The purpose of this feature is to provide
continuous current sensing when ISN is below the LED
current sense common mode range (during start-up or
an output short-circuit fault) to prevent the development
of excessive switching currents that could damage the
power components in a SEPIC converter. The action
threshold (150mV, typ) is above the default LED current
sense threshold, so that no interference will occur over
the ISN voltage range where these two functions overlap.
This feature acts in the same manner as SENSE current
limit—it prevents GATE from going high (switch turn-on)
untiltheISP/ISNdifferencefallsbelowthethreshold. Ifthe
load has appreciable series inductance, use of a Schottky
clamp from GND to ISN is recommended for the SEPIC
to prevent excessive current flowing from the ISN pin in
a fault.

Duty Cycle Considerations
method uses the PWM pin to modulate the current source
between zero and full current to achieve a precisely pro-
grammed average current. To make PWM dimming more
accurate, the switch demand current is stored on the VC
node during the quiescent phase when PWM is low. This
featureminimizesrecoverytimewhenthePWMsignalgoes
high. To further improve the recovery time, a disconnect
switch may be used in the LED current path to prevent the
ISP node from discharging during the PWM signal low
phase. The minimum PWM on or off time will depend on
thechoiceofoperatingfrequencyandexternalcomponent
selection. With operation in discontinuous conduction
mode (DCM), regulated current pulses as short as 1µs are
achievable. But, the best overall combination of PWM and
analog dimming (with CTRL) is available if the minimum
PWM pulse is at least six switching cycles.
Switching duty cycle is a key variable defining converter
operation, therefore, its limits must be considered when
programming the switching frequency for a particular
application. The fixed minimum on-time and minimum
off-time (see Figure 4) and the switching frequency define
the minimum and maximum duty cycle of the switch,
respectively. The following equations express the mini-
mum/maximum duty cycle:
Min Duty Cycle = (minimum on-time) • switching fre-
quency
Max Duty Cycle = 1 – (minimum off-time) • switching
frequency
When calculating the operating limits, the typical values
for on/off-time in the data sheet should be increased by
at least 60ns to allow margin for PWM control latitude,
GATE rise/fall times and SW node rise/fall times.
Programming the Switching Frequency
The RT frequency adjust pin allows the user to program
the switching frequency from 100kHz to 1MHz to optimize
efficiency/performanceorexternalcomponentsize.Higher
frequency operation yields smaller component size but
increases switching losses and gate driving current, and

Thermal Considerations
The LT3756 series is rated to a maximum input voltage
of 100V. Careful attention must be paid to the internal
power dissipation of the IC at higher input voltages to
ensure that a junction temperature of 125°C (150°C for
H-grade) is not exceeded. This junction limit is especially

Open LED Detection (LT3756 and LT3756-2)
TheLT3756andLT3756-2provideanopen-collectorstatus
pin, OPENLED, that pulls low when the FB pin is within
~50mV of its 1.25V regulated voltage. If the open LED
clamp voltage is programmed correctly using the FB pin,
then the FB pin should never exceed 1.1V when LEDs are
connected, therefore, the only way for the FB pin to be
within 50mV of the regulation voltage is for an open LED
event to have occurred. The key difference between the
LT3756 and LT3756-2 is the behavior of the OPENLED pin
whentheFBpincrossesandre-crossestheFBovervoltage

OPENLED freely when crossing the 1.31V threshold.
The LT3756, by comparison, de-asserts OPENLED when
FB exceeds 1.31V and is prevented from re-asserting
OPENLED until the FB pin falls below the 1.2V (typ) open
LED threshold and clears the fault. The LT3756-2 has the
more general purpose behavior and is recommended for
applications using OPENLED.

Input Capacitor Selection
If LT3756 junction temperature reaches 165°C, the GATE
and PWMOUT pins will be driven to GND and the soft-
start (SS) pin will be discharged to GND. Switching will
be enabled after device temperature is reduced 10°C. This

Theswitchingfrequency,outputcurrentandtolerableinput
voltage ripple are key inputs to estimating the capacitor
value. An X7R type ceramic capacitor is usually the best
choice since it has the least variation with temperature
and DC bias. Typically, boost and SEPIC converters re-
quire a lower value capacitor than a buck mode converter.
Assuming that a 100mV input voltage ripple is acceptable,
the required capacitor value for a boost converter can be

In the buck mode configuration, the input capacitor has
large pulsed currents due to the current returned through
the Schottky diode when the switch is off. In this buck

as possible to the Schottky diode and to the GND return
of the switch (i.e., the sense resistor). It is also important
to consider the ripple current rating of the capacitor. For
best reliability, this capacitor should have low ESR and
ESL and have an adequate ripple current rating. The RMS
input current for a buck mode LED driver is:
A typical value for the soft-start capacitor is 0.01µF. The
soft-start pin reduces the oscillator frequency and the
maximum current in the switch. The soft-start capacitor
is discharged when SHDN/UVLO falls below its threshold,
during an overtemperature event or during an INTV
CC
undervoltage event. During start-up with SHDN/UVLO,
charging of the soft-start capacitor is enabled after the
first PWM high period.

are listed in Table 3. The MOSFETs used in the application
circuits in this data sheet have been found to work well
with the LT3756. Consult factory applications for other
recommended MOSFETs.
The selection of the output capacitor depends on the load
and converter configuration, i.e., step-up or step-down
and the operating frequency. For LED applications, the
equivalent resistance of the LED is typically low and the
output filter capacitor should be sized to attenuate the
current ripple. Use of an X7R type ceramic capacitor is
recommended.

Schottky Rectifier Selection
These equations provide an estimate of the sense resistor
value based on reasonable assumptions about induc-
tor current ripple during steady state switching. Lower
values of sense resistor may be required in applications
where inductor ripple current is higher. Examples include
applications with current limited operation at high duty
cycle, and those with discontinuous conduction mode
(DCM) switching. It is always prudent to verify the peak
inductor current in the application to ensure the sense
resistor selection provides margin to the SENSE current
limit threshold.
The power Schottky diode conducts current during the
interval when the switch is turned off. Select a diode rated
forthemaximumSWvoltage. IfusingthePWMfeaturefor
dimming, it is important to consider diode leakage, which
increaseswiththetemperature,fromtheoutputduringthe
PWM low interval. Therefore, choose the Schottky diode
with sufficiently low leakage current. Table 4 has some
recommended component vendors.

The lengths of the high dI/dt traces: 1) from the switch

2) from the switch node through the Schottky rectifier and

The inductor and output capacitor are chosen based on
performance, size and cost. The compensation resistor
and capacitor at VC are selected to optimize control loop
response and stability. For typical LED applications, a
2.2nF compensation capacitor at VC is adequate, and

Board Layout
The high speed operation of the LT3756 demands careful
attention to board layout and component placement. The
exposed pad of the package is the only GND terminal of
the IC and is also important for thermal management of
the IC. It is crucial to achieve a good electrical and thermal
contact between the exposed pad and the ground plane of
