Product details
Overview
LT3755EUD-2#PBF from Analog Devices is a constant-frequency, current-mode DC/DC LED controller optimized for high-current automotive and industrial LED drivers. It drives an external N-channel MOSFET, supports 4.5V–40V input, delivers up to 75V output, features 100mV high-side current sensing, and enables true-color PWM dimming up to 3000:1 in boost/buck/buck-boost topologies.
For engineers reviewing the LT3755EUD-2#PBF datasheet, LT3755EUD-2#PBF pinout, LT3755EUD-2#PBF application, or LT3755EUD-2#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualification, open LED protection with dedicated OPENLED pin, programmable 100kHz–1MHz switching frequency via RT resistor, and dual-loop (constant-current + constant-voltage) regulation capability for robust LED system design.
Technical Context
The LT3755EUD-2#PBF implements a fixed-frequency current-mode control architecture with internal 7.15V INTVCC regulator powering the gate driver and logic. Its high-side ISP/ISN current sense interface operates up to 75V common-mode voltage and provides 100mV full-scale threshold with CTRL-adjustable scaling (0–1.1V), enabling precise LED current regulation across wide temperature and supply ranges.
Unlike the LT3755-1 (SYNC-capable) and base LT3755, the LT3755-2 variant integrates an improved open LED status pin (OPENLED) with latched fault reporting during PWM idle states and re-assertion behavior after overvoltage recovery-critical for automotive headlamp safety compliance.
Key Specifications

| Package | 16-lead 3mm × 3mm QFN with exposed pad - thermally enhanced for high-power LED driver PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
LT3755EUD-2#PBF uses a thermally enhanced 16-lead (3mm × 3mm) plastic QFN package with exposed pad (Pin 17) soldered to PCB ground for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PWMOUT (Pin 1) | Buffered PWM output | Drives NMOS disconnect switch; toggles low on FB overvoltage (>VFB + 60mV) to isolate LED load. |
| FB (Pin 2) | Voltage feedback input | Regulates to 1.25V nominal; enables CV mode and open-LED detection (pulls OPENLED when FB < VFB – 50mV). |
| ISN (Pin 3) | Negative current sense input | High-side current sense return; supports >2.9V common-mode for buck-boost configurations. |
| ISP (Pin 4) | Positive current sense input | High-side current sense high terminal; short-circuit detection active when ISN < 3V. |
| VC (Pin 5) | Error amplifier output | Integrates ISP–ISN error; high-impedance during PWM low to retain state for next cycle. |
| CTRL (Pin 6) | Current threshold adjust | Scales ISP–ISN threshold from 0–100mV linearly (0–1.1V); clamps at full scale above 1.2V. |
| VREF (Pin 7) | 2.0V reference output | Stable 2.0V source (±2%) for CTRL divider or temperature compensation networks. |
| PWM (Pin 8) | Digital dimming input | Active-low enable; disables switching, idles oscillator, and forces GATE/PWMOUT low. |
| OPENLED (Pin 9) | Open LED fault indicator | Open-collector pull-down asserted when FB < VFB – 50mV; latched during PWM idle (LT3755-2 specific). |
| SS (Pin 10) | Soft-start control | 10µA pull-up to 2.5V rail; external capacitor sets ramp time; reset by UVLO or thermal fault. |
| RT (Pin 11) | Frequency programming | Resistor-to-GND sets oscillator frequency (100kΩ → ~375kHz); no internal pull-up. |
| SHDN/UVLO (Pin 12) | Shutdown & input monitoring | 1.22V falling threshold with programmable hysteresis; sub-µA shutdown IQ. |
| INTVCC (Pin 13) | Internal LDO output | 7.15V regulated supply (±150mV); powers gate driver; requires 4.7µF local ceramic bypass. |
| VIN (Pin 14) | Main power input | 4.5V–40V input; must be bypassed with ≥0.22µF ceramic capacitor near pin. |
| SENSE (Pin 15) | Low-side current sense | Kelvin-connected to FET source; monitors switch current for slope-compensated current-mode control. |
| GATE (Pin 16) | MOSFET gate driver | Drives external N-channel FET between INTVCC and GND; fast rise/fall (<35ns into 3.3nF). |
| Exposed Pad (Pin 17) | Thermal & electrical ground | Must be soldered to PCB ground plane; serves as current sense return path for SENSE pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 qualification | Grade E (–40°C to +125°C) ensures reliability for automotive headlamp and interior lighting systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT3756EUD-2#PBF | Higher 60V ISP/ISN common-mode rating; identical pinout and feature set; rated for –40°C to +125°C. | Targeted at higher-output-voltage LED drivers where ISP/ISN node exceeds 48V but remains below 60V. | Select LT3756EUD-2#PBF only if ISP/ISN voltage exceeds 48V in your topology; otherwise LT3755EUD-2#PBF offers optimal cost/performance balance. |
| LM3410XSDX/NOPB | Single-stage boost-only controller; no high-side current sense; max 40V output; no OPENLED or FB overvoltage protection. | Cost-sensitive, lower-power (<15W) LED applications without fault diagnostics or multi-topology flexibility. | Choose LM3410XSDX/NOPB only for simple boost LED drivers with fixed output and no safety-critical fault reporting needs. |
Compared with LT3756EUD-2#PBF, LT3755EUD-2#PBF offers identical AEC-Q100 qualification and OPENLED functionality at lower ISP/ISN voltage rating (75V vs 60V), while LM3410XSDX/NOPB lacks high-side sensing, dual-loop regulation, and automotive qualification - making it unsuitable for safety-critical or multi-topology designs.

FAQ
What is the key functional difference between LT3755EUD-2#PBF and the base LT3755EUD#PBF?
The LT3755EUD-2#PBF includes an improved OPENLED pin implementation that latches the open-LED fault condition during PWM idle states and automatically re-asserts the signal after FB recovers from overvoltage events. This behavior enhances diagnostic reliability in automotive lighting systems where intermittent faults must be captured and reported consistently. The base LT3755EUD#PBF does not provide latched reporting or automatic re-assertion.
Can LT3755EUD-2#PBF operate in buck configuration with input voltage higher than output voltage?
Yes, LT3755EUD-2#PBF supports buck topology when VIN exceeds VOUT. Its high-side current sensing architecture (ISP/ISN) and ground-referenced FB pin enable stable constant-current regulation in buck mode. The controller maintains 100mV current sense threshold accuracy and full protection features-including open-LED detection and overvoltage shutdown-even in buck operation.
What is the maximum recommended switching frequency for LT3755EUD-2#PBF in a thermally constrained layout?
The LT3755EUD-2#PBF supports up to 1MHz switching frequency, but in thermally constrained layouts using the 3mm × 3mm QFN package, Analog Devices recommends limiting frequency to ≤500kHz. This balances gate drive losses, INTVCC loading (IINTVCC = QG × fOSC), and thermal rise-especially when driving high-QG MOSFETs or operating near 125°C junction temperature.
How does the CTRL pin affect LED current regulation in LT3755EUD-2#PBF?
The CTRL pin sets the ISP–ISN current sense threshold from 0mV to 100mV linearly over 0–1.1V input, enabling analog dimming or temperature compensation. For VCTRL > 1.2V, the threshold is fixed at 100mV. In LT3755EUD-2#PBF, this directly scales the regulated LED current ILED = (VCTRL – 100mV)/(10 × RLED) for VCTRL ≤ 1V, providing precise, temperature-stable current control independent of PWM duty cycle.
Is LT3755EUD-2#PBF compatible with external synchronization signals?
No, LT3755EUD-2#PBF does not support external synchronization. The SYNC pin is reserved for the LT3755-1 variant only. On LT3755EUD-2#PBF, Pin 9 is designated as OPENLED (not SYNC), and no internal circuitry exists to accept or process external clock signals. Frequency adjustment must be performed exclusively via the RT pin resistor.
