Linear Technology DC1775A Demo Manual

DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 1775A is an off-line isolated fly-
back LED driver featuring the LT
provides a constant-current output of 0.5A over an LED
string voltage of 20V and 30V. It is optimized to operate
over a wide AC input voltage range (90VAC to 270VAC).
LED current typically stays within ±4% over the whole
input voltage range. The DC1775A provides a steep decline
in LED current with decreasing TRIAC dimming angle, to
achieve a wide TRIAC dimming range. It is designed to
comply with IEC 61000-3-2 Class C harmonics standard
and EN55015B conducted EMI standard.
The LT3799 controls an isolated flyback converter in
boundary mode. Its unique bleeder circuit makes the LED
driver compatible with TRIAC dimmers without additional
components. Its novel current sensing scheme delivers a

Note 1: For applications with low LED string voltage, FB pin divider resistor
R6 and output clamp D3 can be adjusted to reduce the open voltage limit.
