Linear Technology
DESCRIPTION
The LT®3754 is a 16-channel LED driver with a step-up DC/DC controller capable of driving up to 45V of LEDs. Eachchannelcontainsanaccuratecurrentsinkwith±2.8% currentmatching. Channelsfollowamasterprogrammable current to allow between 10mA to 50mA of LED current per string. Channels can be paralleled for higher LED current. Output voltage adapts to variations in LED VF for optimum efficiency and open LED faults do not affect the operation of connected LED strings.
