FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The LM3549 is a high power LED driver with up to
700mA output current. It has three constant current
LED drivers and a buck boost SMPS for driving RGB
LEDs with high efficiency. LED drivers are designed
for sequential drive so only one driver can be enabled
at a time.

Over-Current Protection
Over-Temperature Protection
I2C Compatible Interface
Under-Voltage Lockout
LED Open and Short Protection and Detection
95% Peak Efficiency Buck-Boost Converter
LED driver output current settings can be stored to
integrated non-volatile memory which allows stand-
alone operation without I2C interface. Non-volatile
memory is rewritable so current setting can be
changed if needed.
NVM Memory for Calibration Data and
Standalone Usage without I2C Control
•
Soft Start
The LM3549 has a fault detection feature that can
detect several different fault conditions. In case of a
fault error flags are set and FAULT output sends
interrupt to control logic. Error flags can be read
through I2C interface.
APPLICATIONS
•
•
Portable Video Projectors
High Power LED Driving
Total brightness can be controlled with PWM input or
with master fader register if I2C interface is used.
