Product details
Overview
LT3762HUFD#PBF from Analog Devices is a 28-lead QFN synchronous boost LED controller supporting constant-current (±3.5%) and constant-voltage (±2%) regulation, rail-to-rail current sensing (0V–60V), 100kHz–1MHz programmable switching frequency, and 3000:1 external PWM dimming. It drives high-current LEDs in automotive lighting, industrial signage, and battery-powered LED systems with up to 60V output voltage.
For engineers reviewing the LT3762HUFD#PBF datasheet, LT3762HUFD#PBF pinout, LT3762HUFD#PBF application, or LT3762HUFD#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its -40°C to +150°C operating junction temperature, integrated 7.5V INTVCC regulator, spread-spectrum modulation (SSFM) for EMI reduction, PMOS switch driver for output disconnect, and dual-mode operation in boost, SEPIC, buck, or buck-boost topologies.
Technical Context
The LT3762HUFD#PBF implements current-mode control with rail-to-rail ISP/ISN sensing (0V–60V common-mode range) and a transconductance error amplifier (VC pin) for loop stabilization. Its oscillator uses an external RT resistor to set frequency from 100kHz to 1MHz, while SSFM pin enables triangle-wave-modulated frequency shifting (–30% deviation) to suppress conducted EMI peaks.
It integrates dual gate drivers: BG (low-side N-MOSFET, 230ns min on-time) and TG (synchronous high-side N-MOSFET, 130ns min on-time), plus PWMTG - an inverted, clamped (7V) P-MOSFET driver enabling LED output disconnect and overcurrent protection. The internal 7.5V INTVCC regulator powers all logic and drivers, eliminating need for external bias supply.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Range | 2.5V to 38.5V input - supports wide-input battery and industrial rails including 12V/24V automotive systems. |
| Output Voltage | Up to 60V - enables driving long LED strings (e.g., 15× 3.5V white LEDs) in boost configuration. |
| Current Regulation | ±3.5% accuracy - ensures stable LED brightness across temperature and line variations without external calibration. |
| Switching Frequency | 100kHz–1MHz (RT-programmable) - balances efficiency, inductor size, and EMI compliance in space-constrained designs. |
| Dimming Ratio | 3000:1 external PWM - meets stringent automotive headlight and display backlight dimming requirements. |

Pinout & Package
LT3762HUFD#PBF uses a 28-lead 4mm × 5mm plastic QFN package with exposed thermal pad (Pin 29 = GND). Thermal resistance θJA = 43°C/W, θJC = 3.4°C/W. Exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pin 29) | Ground reference & thermal path | Exposed pad tied directly to PCB ground plane; critical for thermal dissipation and noise immunity. |
| ISP / ISN | High-side LED current sense inputs | Rail-to-rail sensing (0V–60V) enables accurate constant-current regulation regardless of LED string voltage. |
| SW / BOOST / TG / BG | Power switching node & gate drivers | SW connects to boost capacitor negative; BOOST supplies TG bootstrapping; TG/BG drive synchronous MOSFETs. |
| PWMTG | Inverted P-MOSFET gate driver | Drives series PMOS between VISP and (VISP – 7V); enables safe LED output disconnect and short-circuit protection. |
| FB | Voltage feedback & fault detection | Regulates to 1.25V; triggers OPENLED/SHORTLED flags when out-of-range - supports CV mode and LED protection. |
| RT / SSFM / SS | Frequency, EMI, and soft-start control | RT sets switching frequency; SSFM enables spread-spectrum; SS provides soft-start timing and fault latching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous boost topology support | Enables >90% efficiency at 60W (e.g., 3V–24VIN → 30V/2A LED) by eliminating diode conduction loss. |
| Integrated 7.5V INTVCC regulator | Eliminates need for external bias supply; delivers up to 140mA, powering gate drivers and internal logic reliably. |
| Spread-spectrum modulation (SSFM) | Reduces peak EMI by modulating switching frequency ±15% around center value - simplifies EMC filter design. |
| Programmable open/short LED protection | OPENLED flag asserts when VISP–ISN < 25mV and FB > VFB–50mV; SHORTLED asserts if FB < 300mV or VISP–ISN > 600mV. |
| 3000:1 external PWM dimming | Supports automotive ADB and adaptive lighting via clean, jitter-free digital PWM signal applied to PWM pin. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC3789EMSE#PBF | 4-switch synchronous buck-boost controller; no integrated LED-specific protections (OPENLED/SHORTLED); requires external current sense amp. | Designed for general DC/DC conversion, not optimized for LED constant-current regulation or dimming interfaces. | Select only if system requires bidirectional voltage conversion (VIN > VOUT or VIN < VOUT) and can implement custom LED protection logic. |
| LM3409QMH/NOPB | Asynchronous boost LED controller; max 40V output; no SSFM; 1000:1 PWM dimming; -40°C to +125°C rating. | Lacks synchronous rectification, spread-spectrum, and high-temp rating - limited to lower-power, cost-sensitive lighting. | Choose for simpler, lower-cost designs where 60V output, 150°C operation, or EMI reduction are not required. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage supported by the LT3762HUFD#PBF?
The LT3762HUFD#PBF supports synchronous boost output voltage up to 60V. This is confirmed in the "Features" section and Typical Application schematic (3762 TA01a), where a 30V, 2A LED load is driven from 3V–24V input. The absolute maximum rating for ISP, ISN, SW, and BOOST pins is 80V, but functional boost operation is specified to 60V per datasheet Section 1 and Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
Does the LT3762HUFD#PBF support both constant-current and constant-voltage regulation modes?
Yes, the LT3762HUFD#PBF supports both modes. Constant-current regulation achieves ±3.5% accuracy via ISP/ISN sensing; constant-voltage regulation holds FB at 1.25V ±2%. The FB pin serves dual roles: voltage feedback for CV mode and open-LED fault detection in CC mode - explicitly stated in the "Description" and "Features" sections.
How does the LT3762HUFD#PBF implement spread-spectrum frequency modulation?
The LT3762HUFD#PBF implements spread-spectrum modulation via the SSFM pin. When enabled, it generates a triangle ramp that modulates the internal switching frequency between FSWITCH and FSWITCH – 30%, reducing EMI peak amplitudes. The ramp frequency is set by CSSFM (12μA/(2 × 1V × CSSFM)), as detailed in Pin Functions (Section 12) and Electrical Characteristics (Table 2).
What is the purpose of the PWMTG pin on the LT3762HUFD#PBF?
The PWMTG pin on the LT3762HUFD#PBF is an inverted P-MOSFET gate driver that outputs VISP – 7V (clamped) when active. It enables safe LED output disconnect, overcurrent protection, and short-circuit protection - described in "Features", "Pin Functions", and Block Diagram (Section 13). It is distinct from TG/BG and operates independently of synchronous switching.
Is the LT3762HUFD#PBF qualified for automotive under-hood applications?
Yes, the LT3762HUFD#PBF is qualified for automotive under-hood use. Its H-grade temperature rating covers –40°C to +150°C junction temperature (Order Information table, Page 2), and it includes features critical for automotive: programmable UVLO, OPENLED/SHORTLED fault flags, thermal shutdown at 165°C, and AEC-Q100 stress testing alignment per Linear's automotive qualification process.
