LT3922-1 36V, 2.3A Synchronous Step-Up LED Driver with 25,000:1 PWM Dimming FEATURESDESCRIPTION n ±2% LED Current Regulation The LT®3922-1 is a monolithic, synchronous, step-up DC/ n ±2% Output Voltage Regulation DC converter that utilizes fixed-frequency, peak current n 25,000:1 PWM Dimming at 100Hz control and provides PWM dimming for a string of LEDs. n 128:1 Internal PWM Dimming The LED current is programmed by an analog voltage or n Spread Spectrum Frequency Modulation the duty cycle of pulses at the CTRL pin. The LT3922-1 n Silent Switcher ® Architecture for Low EMI will maintain ±2% current regulation through an external n Operates in Boost, Buck Mode and Buck-Boost Mode sense resistor over a wide range of output voltages. n 2.8V to 36V Input Voltage Range The switching frequency is programmable from 200kHz n Up to 34V LED String Voltage to 2MHz by an external resistor at the RT pin or by an n 2.3A, 40V Internal Switches external clock applied at the SYNC/SPRD pin. With the n 200kHz to 2MHz Switching Frequency with SYNC optional spread spectrum frequency modulation enabled, n Analog or Duty Cycle LED Current Control the frequency varies from 100% to 125% to reduce EMI. n Open/Short LED Protection and Fault Indication The LT3922-1 also includes a driver for an external high n Thermally Enhanced 28-Lead (4mm × 5mm) QFN side PMOS for PWM dimming and an internal PWM signal generator for analog control of PWM dimming. When an external signal is available, the LT3922-1 can perform APPLICATIONS 25,000:1 PWM dimming with 100Hz PWM pulses. n Automotive and Industrial Lighting n Machine Vision Additional features include an accurate external reference voltage for use with the CTRL and PWM pins, an LED All registered trademarks and trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
