DESCRIPTION

with 2.3A Switch Current The L T®3518 is a current mode DC/DC converter with an internal 2.3A, 45V switch specifi cally designed to drive LEDs. The L T3518 operates as a LED driver in boost, buck mode and buck-boost mode. It combines a traditional voltage loop and a unique current loop to operate as a constant-current source or constant-voltage source. Pro- grammable switching frequency allows optimization of the external components for effi ciency or component size. The switching frequency of the L T3518 can be synchronized to an external clock signal. The LED current is externally programmable with a 100mV sense resistor . The external PWM input provides 3000:1 LED dimming. The CTRL pin provides further 10:1 dimming ratio. The L T3518 is available in the tiny footprint 16-Lead QFN (4mm × 4mm) and the 16-Pin TSSOP package. The L T3518 provides a complete solution for both constant-voltage and constant-current applications. n 3000:1 T rue Color PWM™ Dimming Ratio n 2.3A, 45V Internal Switch n 100mV High Side Current Sense n Open LED Protection n Adjustable Frequency: 250kHz to 2.5MHz n Wide Input Voltage Range: Operation from 3V to 30V T ransient Protection to 40V n Operates in Boost, Buck Mode and Buck-Boost Mode n Gate Driver for PMOS LED Disconnect* n Constant-Current and Constant-Voltage Regulation n CTRL Pin Provides 10:1 Analog Dimming n Low Shutdown Current: <1μA n Available in (4mm × 4mm) 16-Lead QFN and 16-Pin TSSOP Packages n Display Backlighting n Automotive and Avionic Lighting n Illumination n Scanners 1.5A Buck Mode LED Driver Effi ciency L, L T , L TC and L TM are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.

(Note 2) VIN = 5V , SHDN = 5V , PWM = 5V unless otherwise noted. 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 L T3518E is guaranteed to meet performance specifi cations from 0°C to 125°C junction temperature. Specifi cations over the –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation with statistical process controls. The L T3518I is guaranteed over the full –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range. The L T3518H is guaranteed over the full –40°C to 150°C operating junction temperature range. Operating lifetime is derated at junction temperatures greater than 125°C. Note 3: Absolute maximum voltage at VIN, SHDN, PWM and TGEN pins is 40V for nonrepetitive 1 second transients and 30V for continuous operation. Note 4: This IC 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 specifi ed maximum operating junction temperature may impair device reliability.

The L T3518 is a constant frequency, current mode regula- tor with an internal power switch. Operation can be best understood by referring to the Block Diagram in Figure 1. At the start of each oscillator cycle, the SR latch is set, which turns on the Q1 power switch. A voltage proportional to the switch current is added to a stabilizing ramp and the resulting sum is fed into the positive terminal of the PWM comparator , A4. When this voltage exceeds the level at the negative input of A4, the SR latch is reset, turning off the power switch. The level at the negative input of A4 is set by the error amplifi er A3. A3 has two inputs, one from the voltage feedback loop and the other one from the current loop. Whichever feedback input is lower takes precedence, and forces the converter into either constant-current or constant-voltage mode. The L T3518 is designed to transi- tion cleanly between these two modes of operation. The current sense amplifi er senses the voltage across R SENSE and provides a pre-gain to amplifi er A1. The output of A1 is simply an amplifi ed version of the difference between the voltage across R SENSE and the lower of V CTRL/10 or 100mV . In this manner , the error amplifi er sets the correct peak switch current level to regulate the current through RSENSE. If the error amplifi er’s output increases, more current is delivered to the output; if it decreases, less current is delivered. The current regulated in R SENSE can be adjusted by changing the input voltage V CTRL. The current sense amplifi er provides rail-to-rail current sense operation. The FB voltage loop is implemented by the amplifi er A2. When the voltage loop dominates, the error amplifi er and the amplifi er A2 regulate the FB pin to 1.01V (constant-voltage mode). Dimming of the LED array is accomplished by pulsing the LED current using the PWM pin. When the PWM pin is low, switching is disabled and the error amplifi er is turned off so that it does not drive the V C pin. Also, all internal loads on the VC pin are disabled so that the charge state of the VC pin will be saved on the external compensation capacitor . This feature reduces transient recovery time. When the PWM input again transitions high, the demand current for the switch returns to the value just before PWM last transitioned low. To further reduce transient recovery time, an external PMOS is used to disconnect the LED array current loop when PWM is low, stopping C FIL T from discharging.

There are two methods to control the current source for dimming using the L T3518. The fi rst method uses the PWM pin to modulate the current source between zero and full current to achieve a precisely programmed aver- age current. To make this method of current control more accurate, the switch demand current is stored on the V C node during the quiescent phase. This feature minimizes recovery time when the PWM signal goes high. To further improve the recovery time, a disconnect switch is used in the LED current path to prevent the output capacitor from discharging in the PWM signal low phase. The minimum PWM on or off time will depend on the choice of operating frequency through R T input pin or SYNC pin. When using the SYNC function, the SYNC and PWM signals must have the aligned rising edges to achieve the optimized high PWM dimming ratio. For best current accuracy, the minimum PWM low or high time should be at least six switching cycles (3μs for f SW = 2MHz). Maximum PWM period is determined by the system and is unlikely to be longer than 12ms. The maximum PWM dimming ratio (PWM RATIO) can be calculated from the maximum PWM period (tMAX) and the minimum PWM pulse width (tMIN) as follows: PWMRATIO = tMAX tMIN (1) Example: tMAX = 9ms, tMIN = 3μs (fSW = 2MHz) PWMRATIO = 9ms/3μs = 3000:1 The second method of dimming control uses the CTRL pin to linearly adjust the current sense threshold during the PWM high state. When the CTRL pin voltage is less than 1V , the LED current is: ILED = VCTRL 10 RSENSE (2) Figure 2 Figure 3 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION When VCTRL is higher than 1V , the LED current is clamped to be: ILED = 100mV RSENSE (3) The LED current programming feature possibly increases 49.9k
