Description
DC1573A is an 8-Channel 100mA High Voltage LED Driver
featuring the LT
3760. The LT3760 drives up to 100mA
®
per string and has a maximum LED string voltage of 45V.
DC1573A is set at 1MHz switching frequency for smallest
inductor and capacitor size as well as maximum PWM
dimming performance. Overvoltage protection is set at
55V in case the LEDs are removed from the circuit. If the
LEDs are opened, the FAULT terminal output flag goes
low and reports the fault condition. The V
powered from 10V to 14V input separated from the 24V
PV
supply for best thermal performance. If one or more
IN
of the 8 LED channels is not used, its LED pin or terminal
should be tied to LED+ to disable it. Multiple channels can
be used in parallel for higher LED current by tying their
LED1-8 pins together.

DEMO MANUAL DC1573A
High Voltage LED Driver
The LT3760 data sheet gives a complete description of
the part, operation and applications information. The data
sheet must be read in conjunction with this demo manual
for demonstration circuit 1573A. The LT3760 is assembled
in a small 28-lead FE (4.4mm TSSOP) package with a
thermally enhanced ground pad. Proper board layout is
essential for maximum thermal performance. See the
Layout Considerations section in the data sheet.
