DescripTion
The
LT
®
3761A
is a DC/DC controller designed to operate as
a constant-current source and constant-voltage regulator.
It features a programmable internal PWM dimming signal.
The LT3761A is ideally suited for driving high current LEDs,
but also has features to make it suitable for charging bat-
teries and supercapacitors. The fixed frequency, current
mode architecture results in stable operation over a wide
range of supply and output voltages. A voltage feedback
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 LT3761A senses output current at the high side or at
the low side of the load. The PWM input can be configured
to self-oscillate at fixed frequency with duty ratio program-
mable from 4% to 96%.
The LT3761A offers improved
accuracy of internal PWM dimming over LT3761.
When
driven by an external signal, the PWM input provides LED
dimming ratios of up to 3000:1. 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 2:
Do not apply a positive or negative voltage or current source to
GATE or PWMOUT pins, otherwise permanent damage may occur.
Note 3:
The LT3761AE is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from the 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
LT3761AI is guaranteed over the full –40°C to 125°C operating junction
temperature range. Operating lifetime is derated at junction temperatures
greater than 125°C.
Note 4:
The LT3761A 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 operation above
the specified maximum junction temperature may impair device reliability.
Note 5:

Duty = I
