Product details
Overview
LT3755EUD#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a constant-frequency, current-mode DC/DC LED controller driving external N-channel MOSFETs in boost, buck, buck-boost, SEPIC, or flyback topologies. It delivers up to 75V output, supports 4.5V–40V input, provides 100mV high-side current sensing, enables 3000:1 PWM dimming, and features integrated 7.15V INTVCC regulator - used in automotive LED headlamps and industrial high-power lighting.
For engineers reviewing the LT3755EUD#TRPBF datasheet, LT3755EUD#TRPBF pinout, LT3755EUD#TRPBF application, or LT3755EUD#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include high-side current sense architecture, programmable 100kHz–1MHz switching frequency, AEC-Q100 qualification (E-grade), open LED protection via FB-based detection, and thermal shutdown with 125°C max junction temperature.
Technical Context
The LT3755EUD#TRPBF implements fixed-frequency current-mode control with slope compensation, using an internal transconductance error amplifier (VC) to regulate either LED current (via ISP/ISN differential sensing) or output voltage (via FB). Its dual-loop capability allows simultaneous or selective regulation - current loop dominates when CTRL > 1.2V and ISP–ISN > 2.9V; voltage loop activates when FB deviates from 1.25V nominal reference.
It integrates a 7.15V LDO for gate drive and logic, supports soft-start via SS pin with 10µA pull-up, and includes dedicated protection circuits: open LED detection (FB < VFB – 50mV), overvoltage shutdown (FB > VFB + 60mV), short-circuit detection (ISP–ISN > 150mV at ISN < 3V), and thermal limit at 165°C. The GATE driver delivers fast rise/fall times (<35ns) into 3300pF loads.

Pinout & Package
LT3755EUD#TRPBF uses a thermally enhanced 16-lead (3mm × 3mm) plastic QFN package with exposed ground pad (Pin 17). Pin numbering follows standard top-view layout; exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PWMOUT (Pin 1) | Buffered PWM output | Drives NMOS disconnect switch; toggles low during FB overvoltage fault to isolate LED load |
| FB (Pin 2) | Voltage feedback input | Regulates output voltage to 1.25V; triggers OPENLED pull-down if below VFB – 50mV (open LED) |
| 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 input; combined with ISN to set LED current ILED = 100mV/RSENSE |
| VC (Pin 5) | Error amplifier output | Integrates difference between ISP–ISN and CTRL-set threshold; stabilizes loop with RC network |
| CTRL (Pin 6) | Current threshold adjust | Sets ISP–ISN regulation point: 100mV (full scale) when VCTRL > 1.2V; linear scaling below 1V |
| VREF (Pin 7) | 2.0V reference output | Supplies bias for CTRL divider; supports analog dimming and temperature compensation circuits |
| PWM (Pin 8) | Digital dimming input | Active-high signal enabling/disabling switching; internal pull-down; controls PWMOUT and oscillator |
| OPENLED (Pin 9) | Open LED status output | Open-collector pull-down asserted when FB < VFB – 50mV; requires external <1mA pull-up |
| SS (Pin 10) | Soft-start control | 10µA 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 → ~1MHz, 1MΩ → ~100kHz |
| SHDN/UVLO (Pin 12) | Shutdown & UVLO input | 1.22V falling threshold with programmable hysteresis; disables IC and resets soft-start on undervoltage |
| INTVCC (Pin 13) | Internal regulated supply | 7.15V LDO output powering GATE, PWMOUT, and internal logic; requires 4.7µF local ceramic bypass |
| VIN (Pin 14) | Main input supply | 4.5V–40V input; must be bypassed with ≥0.22µF ceramic capacitor near pin |
| SENSE (Pin 15) | Low-side current sense | Kelvin-connected to source of external sense resistor; monitors switch current for current-mode control |
| GATE (Pin 16) | MOSFET gate driver | Drives external N-channel FET between INTVCC and GND; fast 35ns rise/fall into 3300pF |
| Exposed Pad (Pin 17) | Thermal & electrical ground | Must be soldered to PCB ground plane; serves as current sense return path and thermal conduction path |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT3756EUD#TRPBF | Higher 60V ISP/ISN common-mode range (vs 75V), identical pinout and feature set; supports up to 150V output in boost mode | Targeted at ultra-high-voltage LED strings (>100V) and laser diode drivers where extended ISP/ISN voltage tolerance is required | Select LT3756EUD#TRPBF only when output voltage exceeds 75V or ISP/ISN common-mode voltage exceeds 75V - otherwise LT3755EUD#TRPBF offers optimal cost/performance balance |
| LM3410XMF/NOPB | Single-stage buck-only controller; no high-side sensing, no OPENLED, lower 32V output capability, no AEC-Q100 rating | Suitable for low-cost, non-automotive, low-power (<15W) LED lighting with fixed input voltage and simple CV/CC requirements | Choose LM3410XMF/NOPB for cost-sensitive consumer lighting where AEC-Q100, high-side sensing, and 75V capability are unnecessary |
Compared with LT3756EUD#TRPBF, the LT3755EUD#TRPBF trades ultra-high-voltage capability for tighter thermal performance in compact QFN packages; versus LM3410XMF/NOPB, it adds automotive qualification, topology flexibility, and robust fault protection - making it essential for safety-critical or high-reliability LED systems.

FAQ
What topology configurations does the LT3755EUD#TRPBF support?
The LT3755EUD#TRPBF supports boost, buck, buck-boost, SEPIC, and flyback topologies through its high-side current sensing architecture and flexible feedback structure. Unlike traditional controllers constrained to ground-referenced LED cathodes, the LT3755EUD#TRPBF's ISP/ISN inputs enable direct high-side sensing - allowing the LED string to float relative to ground. This eliminates topology limitations imposed by low-side sensing and makes LT3755EUD#TRPBF suitable for applications such as automotive headlamps where the LED anode must connect to battery voltage.
How does the LT3755EUD#TRPBF implement open LED detection?
The LT3755EUD#TRPBF implements open LED detection using the FB pin voltage level: when FB falls below VFB – 50mV (typically 1.20V), the OPENLED pin asserts a pull-down signal. This occurs because an open LED string causes the output voltage to rise uncontrollably, pulling FB above its regulation point - but once the feedback loop loses control, FB collapses due to lack of current flow. The LT3755EUD#TRPBF monitors this collapse and signals fault condition via OPENLED, enabling system-level diagnostics without external comparators.
Can the LT3755EUD#TRPBF operate with input voltage below 6V?
Yes, the LT3755EUD#TRPBF can operate with input voltage as low as 4.5V, but SHDN/UVLO pin operation requires special attention below 6V: per datasheet Note 3, the SHDN/UVLO pin must not exceed VIN for proper undervoltage lockout function. To ensure reliable startup and shutdown behavior at low VIN, tie SHDN/UVLO directly to VIN or use a resistor divider referenced to VIN instead of ground. Also, connecting INTVCC to VIN (instead of regulating) is recommended when VIN ≤ 8V to avoid dropout issues.
What is the role of the CTRL pin in the LT3755EUD#TRPBF?
The CTRL pin in the LT3755EUD#TRPBF sets the ISP–ISN current sense threshold: for VCTRL > 1.2V, the threshold is fixed at 100mV; for 0V < VCTRL < 1V, it scales linearly as (VCTRL – 100mV)/(10 × RSENSE). This enables analog dimming, temperature compensation (by feeding VREF into CTRL via thermistor divider), or dynamic current derating. Leaving CTRL unconnected causes undefined regulation - it must be actively driven or tied to VREF/GND depending on desired mode.
Does the LT3755EUD#TRPBF require external components for thermal protection?
No, the LT3755EUD#TRPBF includes internal thermal protection that activates at 165°C junction temperature, forcing GATE and PWMOUT low until temperature recovers. However, sustained operation above 125°C degrades lifetime - so external thermal design remains critical. The 3mm × 3mm QFN package with exposed pad must be soldered to a minimum 1cm² copper pour for effective heat dissipation. No external thermal sensor or circuitry is needed for basic overtemperature shutdown, as the LT3755EUD#TRPBF handles this autonomously.
