Product details
Overview
LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a constant-current, current-mode DC/DC LED controller driving external N-channel MOSFETs in boost, buck, buck-boost, SEPIC, or flyback topologies. It features 4.5V–40V input range, 75V output capability, 100kHz–1MHz adjustable switching frequency, high-side current sensing with 100mV threshold, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive headlamp drivers.
For engineers reviewing the LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF datasheet, LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF pinout, LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF application, or LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include open LED protection behavior (LT3755-2 variant), CTRL-based analog dimming, PWM dimming up to 3000:1, thermal shutdown at 165°C, and QFN-16 (3mm × 3mm) package with exposed pad grounding.
Technical Context
The LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF implements fixed-frequency current-mode control with internal 7.15V INTVCC regulator powering gate driver and logic. Its high-side current sense architecture (ISP/ISN inputs) enables topology flexibility and avoids ground loop issues in LED string configurations.
It integrates dual-loop regulation: LED current control via ISP–ISN differential voltage referenced to CTRL pin (100mV full-scale), and optional constant-voltage regulation via FB pin (1.25V reference). The LT3755-2 variant adds improved OPENLED status latching behavior during PWM idle states and replaces SYNC functionality with OPENLED on Pin 9.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5V to 40V - supports 12V/24V automotive battery rails with cold-crank margin |
| Output Voltage Capability | Up to 75V - enables driving long LED strings (e.g., 20× white LEDs @ 3.5V) |
| Switching Frequency Range | 100kHz to 1MHz - set by RT resistor; higher frequencies reduce inductor size but increase switching loss |
| Current Sense Threshold | 100mV (typical) at ISP–ISN - sets LED current as ILED = 100mV / Rsense when CTRL > 1.2V |
| CTRL Pin Adjustment Range | 0V to 1.1V - linearly scales current threshold from 0mV to 100mV for analog dimming |
| Open LED Detection | FB < 1.20V (typical) - asserts OPENLED pull-down to signal LED string disconnection |
| Shutdown Current | <1µA - achieved by pulling SHDN/UVLO ≤ 0.4V; critical for always-on automotive systems |
Pinout & Package
LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF 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 numbering follows standard QFN top-view layout.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PWMOUT (Pin 1) | Buffered PWM output | Drives NMOS disconnect switch; toggles low if FB exceeds 1.31V to protect LEDs from overvoltage |
| FB (Pin 2) | Voltage feedback input | Regulates to 1.25V; enables CV mode and open-LED detection (FB < 1.20V asserts OPENLED) |
| ISN (Pin 3) | Negative current sense input | Kelvin-connected to low side of sense resistor; bias current ~25µA; short-circuit detection active below 3V |
| ISP (Pin 4) | Positive current sense input | Kelvin-connected to high side of sense resistor; bias current varies with CTRL voltage |
| VC (Pin 5) | Error amplifier output | High-impedance during PWM low; stores demand state; requires RC compensation network to GND |
| CTRL (Pin 6) | Current threshold adjust | Sets ISP–ISN threshold from 0–100mV; 0–1.1V range provides linear analog dimming control |
| VREF (Pin 7) | 2.0V reference output | Stable 2.0V source (±2%); supplies current to CTRL divider or temperature compensation circuitry |
| PWM (Pin 8) | Digital dimming input | Active-high; enables/disables switching; internal pull-down; supports 3000:1 PWM dimming ratio |
| OPENLED (Pin 9) | Open-circuit fault indicator | Open-collector output; pulled low when FB < 1.20V; latched during PWM idle (LT3755-2 specific) |
| SS (Pin 10) | Soft-start timing | 10µA internal pull-up to 2.5V rail; external capacitor sets startup ramp time and prevents inrush |
| RT (Pin 11) | Frequency programming | Resistor-to-GND sets oscillator frequency; 100kΩ → ~375kHz; 10kΩ → ~1MHz |
| SHDN/UVLO (Pin 12) | Enable & undervoltage detect | 1.22V falling threshold; hysteresis programmable via external divider; disables IC below threshold |
| INTVCC (Pin 13) | Internal LDO output | 7.15V regulated supply; powers gate driver and logic; requires 4.7µF local ceramic bypass |
| VIN (Pin 14) | Main power input | Accepts 4.5–40V; must be bypassed with ≥0.22µF ceramic capacitor near pin |
| SENSE (Pin 15) | Low-side switch current sense | Kelvin-connected to source of external NMOS; monitors switch current for slope compensation |
| GATE (Pin 16) | MOSFET gate driver | Drives external N-channel FET between INTVCC and GND; rise/fall time <35ns (CL=3300pF) |
| Exposed Pad (Pin 17) | Thermal & electrical ground | Must be soldered to PCB ground plane; improves thermal resistance (θJC = 4.2°C/W) and noise immunity |

FAQ
What is the key functional difference between LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF and the base LT3755EUD#TRPBF?
The LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF implements an improved OPENLED latching mechanism: during PWM idle periods, it retains the last valid open-LED fault state and updates only upon the next PWM high transition. This ensures robust fault reporting in pulsed-dimming automotive applications, unlike the base LT3755 which de-asserts OPENLED during idle. All other electrical specs and pinout remain identical for LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF.
Can LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF operate in buck topology with a grounded LED cathode?
Yes, LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF supports buck topology with grounded LED cathode using high-side current sensing. Connect the LED anode to VOUT, cathode to ground, and place the current sense resistor between ISP and ISN in series with the LED string's high side. This preserves ground reference for MCU interfaces and avoids noise coupling into low-side sensing paths - a key advantage confirmed in the LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF datasheet Figure 1.
What is the minimum recommended value for the RT resistor to achieve 1MHz switching on LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF?
The LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF achieves approximately 1MHz switching frequency with a 10kΩ resistor from RT to GND, as verified in the "Switching Frequency vs RT" typical performance curve (Figure 7). Using a precision 1% metal-film resistor ensures stable operation. Values below 10kΩ risk exceeding maximum oscillator frequency limits and may cause instability or increased jitter - the datasheet specifies 10kΩ as the practical lower bound for reliable 1MHz operation on LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF.
How does the CTRL pin affect LED current regulation in LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF?
The CTRL pin on LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF directly scales the ISP–ISN current sense threshold: for 0V < VCTRL < 1V, threshold = (VCTRL – 0.1V) × 10; above 1.2V, threshold is fixed at 100mV. This enables precise analog dimming - e.g., 0.5V on CTRL yields 40mV threshold, reducing LED current to 40% of full scale. The relationship is monotonic and specified across temperature, making LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF suitable for closed-loop thermal compensation circuits.
Is LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF compatible with 5V logic-level PWM signals?
Yes, LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF accepts 5V PWM signals directly: its PWM input high threshold is 1.5V (min), and absolute maximum rating is 12V. With internal pull-down, a 5V CMOS signal cleanly meets logic high requirements while staying within safe operating limits. No level-shifting is needed, simplifying interface design with microcontrollers or FPGA outputs - a confirmed capability in the "Logic Inputs/Outputs" section of the LT3755EUD-2#TRPBF datasheet.
