The LTR3760 is an 8-channel LED driver with a step-up DC/DC controller capable of driving up to 45V of LEDs.

Each channel contains an accurate current sink with ±2% current matching. Channels follow a master programmable current to allow between 20mA to 100mA 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.

The LT3760 allows a PWM dimming range up to 3000:1 and an analog dimming range up to 25:1. Operating frequency can be programmed from 100kHz up to 1MHz using a single resistor or synchronized to an external clock.

Additional features include: programmable maximum VOUT for open LED protection, a fault flag for open LED, programmable LED current derating vs temperature, micropower shutdown and internal soft-start. The LT3760 is available in a thermally enhanced 28-pin TSSOP Package.
