Product details
Overview
LT3755IUD-1#PBF from Analog Devices is a constant-frequency, current-mode DC/DC LED controller driving external N-channel MOSFETs in boost, buck, or buck-boost 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 LT3755IUD-1#PBF datasheet, LT3755IUD-1#PBF pinout, LT3755IUD-1#PBF application, or LT3755IUD-1#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its frequency synchronization capability (LT3755-1 variant), open LED protection logic, PWM/CTRL dual dimming interface, and thermally enhanced 3mm × 3mm QFN package with exposed pad.
Technical Context
The LT3755IUD-1#PBF implements fixed-frequency current-mode control with internal 7.15V INTVCC regulator powering gate driver and logic. Its oscillator supports external RT resistor programming and synchronization via dedicated SYNC pin-exclusive to the -1 variant-enabling precise timing alignment with system clocks.
High-side current sensing across ISP/ISN enables flexible topology support without ground loop interference; the FB pin provides constant-voltage regulation or open-LED fault detection at 1.25V reference, while CTRL pin adjusts current sense threshold from 0V to 100mV linearly below 1V and holds full-scale above 1.2V.

Pinout & Package
LT3755IUD-1#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 during FB overvoltage (>VFB + 60mV) to isolate LED load |
| FB (Pin 2) | Voltage feedback input | Regulates to 1.25V; 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; short-circuit detection active below 3V common-mode voltage |
| 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 ISP–ISN error; high-impedance during PWM low to retain state for next cycle |
| CTRL (Pin 6) | Current threshold adjust | Sets ISP–ISN threshold from 0V to 100mV linearly (0–1V), then holds full scale (>1.2V) |
| VREF (Pin 7) | 2.0V reference output | Stable 2.0V source for CTRL divider or temperature compensation networks; supplies ≤100µA |
| PWM (Pin 8) | Digital dimming input | Active-low shutdown; disables oscillator, pulls GATE/PWMOUT low, and places VC in high-Z hold |
| SYNC (Pin 9) | Frequency sync input | Replaces OPENLED on -1 variant; accepts external clock to lock oscillator phase and reduce EMI |
| 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 set resistor | Connects to GND; selects switching frequency from 100kHz (100kΩ) to 1MHz (10kΩ) |
| SHDN/UVLO (Pin 12) | Shutdown & undervoltage detect | 1.22V falling threshold with programmable hysteresis; sub-µA bias in shutdown |
| INTVCC (Pin 13) | Internal LDO output | 7.15V regulated supply for gate driver and 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 FET source; monitors switch current for slope-compensated current-mode control |
| GATE (Pin 16) | NMOS gate driver | Drives external FET gate between INTVCC and GND; clamped during fault or shutdown |
| 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT3755IUD#PBF | Lacks SYNC pin; OPENLED function retained; identical pinout and electrical specs except sync capability | Suitable where EMI-sensitive synchronous operation is not required; retains open-LED status reporting | Select when system clock synchronization is unnecessary and fault indication is prioritized |

FAQ
What is the primary function of the SYNC pin on the LT3755IUD-1#PBF?
The SYNC pin on the LT3755IUD-1#PBF replaces the OPENLED function found on non–1 variants and enables external clock synchronization of the internal oscillator. It accepts a logic-level square wave to lock switching frequency and phase-reducing EMI peaks and enabling deterministic timing in multi-converter systems. The LT3755IUD-1#PBF requires the external clock to run 20% faster than the RT-set frequency for reliable operation, and the PWM rising edge must precede SYNC by ≥200ns for optimal dimming fidelity.
How does the LT3755IUD-1#PBF implement open LED detection without an OPENLED pin?
The LT3755IUD-1#PBF does not provide dedicated open LED reporting because its Pin 9 is assigned to SYNC instead of OPENLED. Open-circuit detection must be implemented externally-typically by monitoring FB voltage with a comparator circuit that triggers when FB exceeds VFB – 50mV (1.20V typical). This differs from LT3755IUD#PBF and LT3755IUD-2#PBF, which assert OPENLED internally. System designers using LT3755IUD-1#PBF must allocate additional components for fault signaling.
What is the maximum output voltage supported by the LT3755IUD-1#PBF?
The LT3755IUD-1#PBF supports output voltages up to 75V, as confirmed by Absolute Maximum Ratings (ISP/ISN pins rated to 75V) and Typical Application circuits achieving 50W LED string operation at 75V. This rating applies regardless of topology-boost, buck, buck-boost, SEPIC, or flyback-as long as external components (MOSFET, diode, inductor, capacitors) are rated accordingly. The 75V limit ensures safe operation with standard 100V-rated power semiconductors.
Can the LT3755IUD-1#PBF operate in constant-voltage mode?
Yes, the LT3755IUD-1#PBF supports constant-voltage regulation via its FB pin, which is internally referenced to 1.25V. When configured with a resistive divider from output to FB, the controller regulates output voltage instead of LED current. In this mode, the ISP/ISN current sense loop remains active but is overridden by the voltage loop-provided FB remains within its valid range. The device also provides FB overvoltage protection (PWMOUT forced low if FB > VFB + 60mV) and open-LED detection (via FB drop) when used in CV mode.
What thermal management requirements apply to the LT3755IUD-1#PBF in high-power LED applications?
The LT3755IUD-1#PBF requires soldering of its exposed thermal pad (Pin 17) directly to a PCB ground plane to achieve θJA = 68°C/W. For continuous 50W LED driver operation, a minimum 250mm² copper area with 2–4 thermal vias (0.3mm diameter, spaced ≤1mm apart) beneath the pad is recommended. Junction temperature must remain ≤125°C; derating is required above 85°C ambient. Thermal shutdown activates at 165°C, but sustained operation above 125°C degrades long-term reliability per Analog Devices' characterization data.
