LT3598EFE

LED Driver IC Overview

The LT3598EFE is a fixed frequency step-up DC/DC converter designed to drive up to six strings of LEDs at an output voltage up to 44V. It features six internal current sources, each capable of driving up to 10 white LEDs with a maximum current of 30mA per string. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 3.2V to 30V and supports PWM dimming. It utilizes a peak current mode control scheme with an adaptive feedback loop to regulate output voltage slightly above the required LED voltage for optimal efficiency. Current matching between channels is maintained within 15% accuracy.
