and a 6-bit (64-step) ±50% correction register. All con-
trols are programmable via a simple serial data interface.
Three banks of 16-channels each can be configured such
that they operate 120° out-of-phase with each other.
The LT8500 features two diagnostic information flags:
synchronization error and open LED. The flags are sent,
with additional state information, on the serial data inter-
face during status read back. The 50MHz cascadable serial
data interface includes buffering and skew-balancing, mak-
ing the chip suitable for PWM intensive applications such
as large screen LCD dynamic backlighting and mono-,
multi- and full-color LED displays. The LT8500 is also
ideally suited to control three LT3595A LED drivers.

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:
The LT8500E is 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
LT8500I is guaranteed over the full –40°C to 125°C operating junction
temperature range.

Propagation delays, setup/hold times and hi times are measured
from 50% to 50%.
