LT3003
3-Channel LED
Ballaster with PWM
DESCRIPTION
The LT
®
3003 drives three separate strings of LEDs up
to 350mA/channel with 3% accurate current matching,
resulting in uniform LED brightness and intensity. This
approach is superior to conventional methods of running
three separate channels with external ballast resistors
requiring expensive factory calibration.
The LT3003 operates in boost, buck and buck-boost mode.
A True Color PWM Dimming ratio of up to 3000:1 is achiev-
able using a logic-level signal at the PWM pin for all modes
without the need for external level-shifting circuitry. For
applications with input supply above and below the output
voltage of the LED strings, the LT3003 allows the LEDs to
be returned to the input supply (buck-boost mode) instead
of being limited to only SEPIC solutions.
The LT3003 is ideal for high power LED driver applications
such as TFT LCD backlighting and heads-up displays. Ad-
ditional overtemperature outputs allow appropriate system
management for increased reliability.
The LT3003 is available in a small 10-pin MSE package.

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 LT3003E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 85°C junction temperature. Specifications over the –40°C
to 125°C operating junction temperature range are assured by design,
characterization and correlation with statistical process controls.
Note 3:
This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature protection is active.
Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction
temperature may impair device reliability.
Note 4:
Correlation to static test at T

= 25°C.

PIN FUNCTIONS
LED1 (Pin 1):
Controlled current input for a string of LEDs
with a cathode lead connected to the pin. Connect the first
string of LEDs to this pin.
LED2 (Pin 2):
Controlled current input for a string of LEDs
with a cathode lead connected to the pin. Connect the sec-
ond string of LEDs to this pin.
LED3 (Pin 3):
Controlled current input for a string of LEDs
with a cathode lead connected to the pin. Connect the third
string of LEDs to this pin.
V
MAX
(Pin 4):
• Boost: Connect to V
OUT
• Buck Mode: Connect to Input Supply
• Buck-Boost Mode: Connect to V
OUT
V
IN
(Pin 5):
Input Supply, Upper Rail. This pin must be
locally bypassed with a capacitor to ground. V
IN
powers
the internal control circuitry.
• Boost: Connect to Input Supply
• Buck Mode: Connect to Input Supply
• Buck-Boost Mode: Connect to V
OUT
PWM (Pin 6):
Input Pin for PWM Dimming Control. A
PWM signal above 0.5V (on threshold) turns the LT3003
channels on. A PWM signal below 0.5V completely discon-
nects each LED string. If the application does not require
PWM dimming, then the PWM pin can be left either open
(an internal 10µA source current pulls PWM high) or it
can be connected to a supply between 0.5V to 15V.
OT1 (Pin 7):
Overtemperature Output. OT1 pulls 100µA
from the pin when the junction temperature exceeds
125°C. The part has to cool down by 6°C for the flag to
reset; ideal for providing an overtemperature flag to the
system microprocessor.
OT2 (Pin 8):
Overtemperature Output. OT2 Pulls 300µA
from the pin when the junction temperature exceeds
125°C. The part has to cool down by 6°C for the flag to
reset; ideal for connecting to the switching regulator g
m
error amplifier output to defeat switching.
SHDN (Pin 9):
Micropower Shutdown Pin. Below 0.7V
shuts down the IC. Typically I
VIN
= 4µA for SHDN = 0V.
• Boost: Connect to System Shutdown Signal or V
IN
• Buck Mode: Connect to System Shutdown Signal
or V
IN
• Buck-Boost Mode: If PWM dimming, connect to PWM
(Pin 6); if no PWM dimming, connect to system shut-
down signal or V

(Pin 10):
Lower Rail.
• Boost: Connect to System Ground
• Buck Mode: Connect to Inductor
• Buck-Boost Mode: Connect to Input Supply
Exposed Pad (Pin 11):
GND. The ground for the IC should
be soldered to a continuous copper ground plane under
the LT3003 die. Soldering the Exposed Pad to the copper
ground plane under the device will reduce thermal resis-
tance and increase the power capability of the LT3003.
