LT3592 500mA Wide Input Voltage Range Step-Down LED Driver with 10:1 Dimming
FEATURES DESCRIPTION
n
Wide Input Voltage Range
The LT®3592 is a fi xed frequency step-down DC/DC con-
Operation from 3.6V to 36V
verter designed to operate as a constant-current source. n
Resistor Adjustable 400kHz–2.2MHz Switching
An external sense resistor monitors the output current
Frequency
allowing accurate current regulation, ideal for driving n
Shorted and Open LED Protected
high current LEDs. The output current can be dimmed n
Internal Switch Current Sense Resistor
by a factor of 10 using an external signal for nighttime n
External Resistor Programs LED Current, Pin
brake lights.
Selects 10:1 Ratio
The high switching frequency offers several advantages by n 50mA/500mA LED Current Settings permitting the use of a small inductor and small ceramic n Catch Diode Current Sense to Prevent Runaway at capacitors. Small components combined with the LT3592’s High VIN 10-pin DFN leadless surface mount package save space and n Small Thermally Enhanced 10-Lead DFN cost versus alternative solutions. The constant switching (2mm × 3mm) and MSOP-10 Packages frequency combined with low-impedance ceramic capaci- tors result in low, predictable output ripple.
APPLICATIONS
A wide input voltage range of 3.6V to 36V makes the n LT3592 useful in a variety of applications. Current mode Automotive Signal Lighting n PWM architecture provides fast transient response and Industrial Lighting n cycle-by-cycle current limiting. Thermal shutdown provides Constant-Current, Constant Voltage Supplies additional protection. L, LT, LTC and LTM are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.
