PRODUCTION DATA.
PIN | I/O(1) | FUNCTION | ||
---|---|---|---|---|
NAME | LM3423 | LM3421 | ||
AGND | 6 | 6 | G | Analog ground. Connect to PGND through the DAP copper pad to provide ground return for CSH, COMP, RCT, and TIMR. |
COMP | 3 | 3 | I | Compensation. Connect a capacitor to AGND to set the compensation. |
CSH | 4 | 4 | I | Current sense high. Connect a resistor to AGND to set the signal current. For analog dimming, connect a controlled current source or a potentiometer to AGND as detailed in the Analog Dimming section. |
DDRV | 13 | 9 | O | Dim gate drive output. Connect to the gate of the dimming MOSFET. |
DPOL | 12 | — | I | Dim polarity. Connect to AGND if dimming with a series P-channel MOSFET or leave open when dimming with series N-channel MOSFET. |
EN | 2 | 2 | I | Enable. Connect to AGND for zero current shutdown or apply more than 2.4 V to enable device. |
FLT | 9 | — | I | Fault flag. Connect to pullup resistor from VIN and N-channel MOSFET open-drain output is high when a fault condition is latched by the timer. |
GATE | 15 | 11 | O | Main gate drive output. Connect to the gate of the main switching MOSFET. |
HSN | 20 | 16 | I | LED current sense negative. Connect through a series resistor to the negative side of the LED current sense resistor. |
HSP | 19 | 15 | I | LED current sense positive. Connect through a series resistor to the positive side of the LED current sense resistor. |
IS | 17 | 13 | I | Main switch current sense. Connect to the drain of the main N-channel MOSFET switch for RDS-ON sensing or to a sense resistor installed in the source of the same device. |
LRDY | 11 | — | O | LED ready flag. Connect to pullup resistor from VIN and N-channel MOSFET open-drain output pulls down when the LED current is not in regulation. |
nDIM | 8 | 8 | I | Dimming input and undervoltage protection. Connect a PWM signal for dimming as detailed in the PWM Dimming section and/or a resistor divider from VIN to program input undervoltage lockout (UVLO). Turnon threshold is 1.24 V and hysteresis for turnoff is provided by a 23-µA current source. |
OVP | 7 | 7 | I | Overvoltage protection. Connect to a resistor divider from VO to program output overvoltage lockout (OVLO). Turnoff threshold is 1.24 V and hysteresis for turnon is provided by 23-µA current source. |
PGND | 14 | 10 | G | Power ground. Connect to AGND through the DAP copper pad to provide ground return for GATE and DDRV. |
RCT | 5 | 5 | I | Resistor capacitor timing. External RC network sets the predictive off-time and thus the switching frequency. |
RPD | 18 | 14 | I | Resistor pulldown. Connect the low side of all external resistor dividers (VIN UVLO, OVP) to implement zero-current shutdown. |
TIMR | 10 | — | I | Fault timer. Connect a capacitor to AGND to set the time delay before a sensed fault condition is latched. |
VIN | 1 | 1 | I | Input voltage. Bypass with 100-nF capacitor to AGND as close to the device as possible in the printed-circuit-board layout. |
VCC | 16 | 12 | I | Internal regulator output. Bypass with 2.2-µF to 3.3-µF ceramic capacitor to PGND. |
Thermal PAD | G | Thermal PAD on bottom of IC. Star ground, connecting AGND and PGND. | ||
DAP | DAP (21) | DAP (17) | G | Star ground, connecting AGND and PGND. |
