LM3404/04HV
1.0A Constant Current Buck Regulator for Driving High
Power LEDs
General Description
The LM3404/04HV are monolithic switching regulators de-
signed to deliver constant currents to high power LEDs. Ideal
for automotive, industrial, and general lighting applications,
they contain a high-side N-channel MOSFET switch with a
current limit of 1.5A (typical) for step-down (Buck) regulators.
Hysteretic controlled on-time and an external resistor allow
the converter output voltage to adjust as needed to deliver a
constant current to series and series-parallel connected LED
arrays of varying number and type. LED dimming via pulse
width modulation (PWM), broken/open LED protection, low-
power shutdown and thermal shutdown complete the feature
set.
