LT3498
20mA LED Driver and
OLED Driver with Integrated
Schottky in 3mm x 2mm DFN
DESCRIPTION
The LT
®
3498 is a dual output boost converter featuring a
2.3MHz PWM LED Driver and PFM OLED Driver. It includes
an internal power switch and Schottky diode for each
driver. Both converters can be independently shut down
and modulated. This highly integrated power solution is
ideal for dual display electronic devices.
The 2.3MHz step-up converter is designed to drive up to six
white LEDs in series from a Li-Ion cell. The device features
a unique high side LED current sense that enables the part
to function as a “one-wire” current source—one side of the
LED string can be returned to ground anywhere. Traditional
LED drivers use a grounded resistor to sense LED current,
requiring a 2-wire connection to the LED string.
The PFM OLED driver is a low noise boost converter that
features a novel control technique.* The converter controls
power delivery by varying both the peak inductor current
and switch off time. This technique results in low output
voltage ripple, as well as, high efficiency over a wide load
range. The off time of the switch is not allowed to exceed a
fixed level, guaranteeing a switching frequency that stays
above the audio band.

Note 1:
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2:
The LT3498 is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 85°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C junction
operating temperature range are assured by design, characterization and
correlation with statistical process controls.
Note 3:
Internal reference voltage is determined by finding V
FB2
voltage
level which causes quiescent current to increase 20µA above “Not
Switching” level.
Note 4:
If CTRL2 is overriding the internal reference, start-up mode
occurs when V
FB2
is less then half the voltage on CTRL2. If CTRL2 is not
overriding the internal reference, start-up mode occurs when V
FB2
is less
then half the voltage of the internal reference.
