本文介紹了LT3496主要特性，方框圖，多種應用電路以及LT3496EUFD 評估板主要特性和電路圖。LT3496是Linear公司的三輸出DC/DC轉換器，能作為恒流工作，非常適合用來驅動LED。可調開關頻率在330kHz到1MHz，調光比達3000:1，可工作在降壓，升壓和降-升壓模式，內置了750mA/45V開關的三路獨立驅動器，有開路LED保護，主要用在RGB照明，汽車和軍用飛機照明，廣告牌和大型顯示器以及恒流源。
The LTR3496 is a triple output DC/DC converter designed to operate as a constant-current source and is ideal for driving LEDs. The LT3496 works in buck, boost or buckboost mode. The LT3496 uses a fixed frequency, current mode architecture resulting in stable operation over a wide range of supply and output voltages. A frequency adjust pin allows the user to program switching frequency between 330kHz and 2.1MHz to optimize efficiency and external component size.
The LT3496 supports 3000:1 dimming control on each channel. Each of the three regulators is independently operated by that channel’s PWM signal. The PWM feature allows precise adjustment of the color mixing or dimming ratio of the LED source. Each of the three channels has a built-in gate driver to drive an external LED-disconnect P-channel MOSFET, allowing high dimming range. The output current range of each channel of the LT3496 is programmed with an external sense resistor.
The CTRL pins are used to adjust the LED currents either for analog dimming or overtemperature protection.

LT3496EUFD 評估板
Demonstration circuit 986 is a Triple Step-Dow n LED Driver featuring the LT3496EU FD. The LT3496 is a triple output DC/DC converter designed to operate as current sources for driving high current LEDs. O n the demo board, the default current for each output channel is 500mA. Setting CTR L voltage to be less than 1V w ill control the current sense voltage to be one-tenth of CTR L voltage, therefore, reduce the LED current. The output current should not exceed the rated cur¬rent of the LEDs used. The LED current thermal de-rating should be considered to protect the LEDs. The maximum voltage of an LED string the demo board can drive is limited by the duty cycle and the input voltage of the LT3496. The demo board default switching frequency is 2.1M H z. At this frequency, the maximum duty cycle is 70% (M IN ). Lower the switching frequency results in higher maximum duty cycle. The maximum power input voltage (PVIN) is 45V. As a result, each channel of the demo board can drive up to ~31V total LED voltage. Adjustable switching frequency allows optimization of the efficiency and the external component size. At 2.1M H z, 93% efficiency can be achieved at 500mA with minimum solution size. Each of the three regulators on the demo board is in¬dependently operated. The PWM dimming feature of the LT3496 allow s True Color PWM dimming with the dimming ratio of 5000:1. Additional analog dimming is possible. The LT3476 datasheet gives complete description of the part, operation and application information. The datasheet must be read in conjunction with this quick start guide for working on or modifying the demo circuit 986.
