Product details
Overview
LT3755EUD#PBF from Analog Devices is a 40V input, 75V output constant-current LED controller IC designed to drive high-power LEDs in boost, buck, or buck-boost topologies. It features high-side current sensing (100mV threshold), 100kHz–1MHz adjustable switching frequency, and integrated 7.15V gate driver for external N-channel MOSFETs-enabling automotive headlamp drivers and industrial LED lighting systems.
For engineers reviewing the LT3755EUD#PBF datasheet, LT3755EUD#PBF pinout, LT3755EUD#PBF application, or LT3755EUD#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its AEC-Q100 qualification, 3000:1 PWM dimming capability, open-LED protection via FB-based fault detection, and compatibility with thermally enhanced 3mm × 3mm QFN packaging.
Technical Context
The LT3755EUD#PBF implements fixed-frequency current-mode control with internal slope compensation, enabling stable regulation across wide VIN (4.5V–40V) and VOUT (up to 75V) ranges. Its dual-loop architecture supports simultaneous constant-current (via ISP/ISN) and constant-voltage (via FB) regulation, with independent thresholds: 100mV for LED current sense and 1.25V for FB voltage feedback.
High-side current sensing enables flexible topology deployment without ground-referenced load constraints. The CTRL pin provides analog dimming by scaling the ISP–ISN current threshold from 0V to 1.1V, while PWM input delivers true-color dimming up to 3000:1. Internal 7.15V INTVCC regulator powers gate and PWMOUT drivers, with thermal shutdown and undervoltage lockout (1.22V falling threshold) for robust operation.

Pinout & Package
LT3755EUD#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 performance. Pin numbering follows standard top-view layout with GND on Pin 17.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PWMOUT (Pin 1) | Buffered PWM output | Drives NMOS disconnect switch; toggles low during FB overvoltage (>VFB + 60mV) to protect LEDs |
| FB (Pin 2) | Voltage feedback input | Ground-referenced node for CV regulation and open-LED detection (asserts OPENLED when FB < VFB – 50mV) |
| ISN (Pin 3) | Negative current sense input | High-side current sense return; enables short-circuit detection when ISN < 3V |
| ISP (Pin 4) | Positive current sense input | High-side current sense high terminal; bias current varies with CTRL voltage |
| VC (Pin 5) | Error amplifier output | Integrates error signal for loop stability; high-impedance during PWM low to retain state |
| CTRL (Pin 6) | Analog dimming control | Scales ISP–ISN current threshold from 0V to 1.1V; enables linear current adjustment |
| VREF (Pin 7) | 2V reference output | Stable 2.00V source for CTRL divider or temperature compensation networks |
| PWM (Pin 8) | Digital dimming input | Active-high enable; controls switching and latches OPENLED status during idle |
| OPENLED (Pin 9) | Open-LED fault indicator | Open-collector pull-down asserted when FB drops below VFB – 50mV (LT3755/LT3755-2 only) |
| SS (Pin 10) | Soft-start control | 10µA pull-up to 2.5V rail; external capacitor sets startup ramp time |
| RT (Pin 11) | Frequency programming | Resistor-to-GND sets oscillator frequency; 100kΩ = ~100kHz, 10kΩ = ~1MHz |
| SHDN/UVLO (Pin 12) | Enable & undervoltage detect | 1.22V falling threshold with programmable hysteresis; resets soft-start on UV event |
| INTVCC (Pin 13) | Internal LDO output | 7.15V regulated supply for gate/PWMOUT drivers; must be bypassed with 4.7µF ceramic |
| VIN (Pin 14) | Main input supply | 4.5V–40V input; requires local 0.22µF+ ceramic bypass near pin |
| SENSE (Pin 15) | Low-side current sense | Kelvin-connected to FET source; monitors switch current for peak-current mode control |
| GATE (Pin 16) | NMOS gate driver | Swings between INTVCC and GND; drives external power FET with 35ns rise/fall times |
| Exposed Pad (Pin 17) | Thermal & electrical ground | Mandatory solder connection to PCB ground plane for thermal dissipation and noise immunity |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3783EFE#PBF | Fixed 500kHz frequency; no RT pin; includes internal MOSFET drivers for synchronous rectification | Better suited for compact, lower-power designs where fixed frequency simplifies EMI filtering | Select when board space is constrained and 500kHz operation meets efficiency targets |
| LM3410XSD/NOPB | Lower max input (20V); integrated 1.5A MOSFET; no high-side current sensing or OPENLED pin | Targeted at portable LED flashlights and indicator lighting, not high-power automotive systems | Choose only for sub-20W applications with simpler protection requirements |

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage supported by the LT3755EUD#PBF?
The LT3755EUD#PBF supports output voltages up to 75V, enabling it to drive long series strings of high-brightness LEDs. This capability is critical for automotive headlamp applications where 15–20 white LEDs (3.5V each) require ~60–70V total forward voltage. The controller achieves this through high-side current sensing and robust gate drive, not internal voltage rating-external components (inductor, diode, capacitor) must be rated accordingly.
Does the LT3755EUD#PBF support both constant-current and constant-voltage regulation?
Yes, the LT3755EUD#PBF supports dual-loop regulation: constant-current via ISP/ISN differential sensing (100mV threshold) and constant-voltage via FB pin (1.25V reference). When FB is used, the IC regulates output voltage; when ISP/ISN is active, it regulates LED current. Both loops coexist-the FB loop dominates during open-LED faults, while the current loop governs normal operation. Connecting FB to GND disables CV mode entirely.
How does the OPENLED pin function on the LT3755EUD#PBF?
The OPENLED pin on the LT3755EUD#PBF is an open-collector output that pulls low when the FB voltage falls below VFB – 50mV (typically 1.20V), indicating an open LED string. It requires an external pull-up resistor (<1mA current). During PWM low periods, the state is latched; it updates only when PWM goes high again. This pin is present on LT3755 and LT3755-2 variants-but replaced by SYNC on LT3755-1-so LT3755EUD#PBF (standard version) includes functional OPENLED reporting.
What package type and thermal characteristics does the LT3755EUD#PBF use?
The LT3755EUD#PBF uses a 16-lead 3mm × 3mm plastic QFN package with exposed thermal pad (Pin 17). Its thermal resistance is θJA = 68°C/W and θJC = 4.2°C/W. The exposed pad must be soldered to a PCB ground plane for effective heat dissipation. This package supports operation from –40°C to +125°C junction temperature and is rated for automotive-grade reliability per AEC-Q100.
Can the LT3755EUD#PBF be synchronized to an external clock?
No, the LT3755EUD#PBF does not support external synchronization. Synchronization capability is exclusive to the LT3755-1 variant (e.g., LT3755EUD-1#PBF), which replaces the OPENLED pin with a SYNC input. The LT3755EUD#PBF is the base version with OPENLED functionality and no SYNC pin. For designs requiring clock synchronization, the LT3755EUD-1#PBF or LT3755EUD-2#PBF (which adds improved OPENLED behavior) should be selected instead.
