Applications Information
LED CURRENT SETTING/MAXIMUM LED CURRENT
The maximum LED current is restricted by the following fac-
tors: the maximum duty cycle that the boost converter can
achieve, the peak current limitations, and the maximum out-
put voltage.
MAXIMUM DUTY CYCLE
The LM3530 can achieve up to typically 94% maximum duty
cycle. Two factors can cause the duty cycle to increase: an
increase in the difference between V
crease in efficiency. This is shown by the following equation:
For a 9-LED configuration V
operating with η = 70% from a 3V battery, the duty cycle re-
quirement would be around 93.6%. Lower efficiency or larger
V
beyond 94%.
PEAK CURRENT LIMIT
The LM3530’s boost converter has a peak current limit for the
internal power switch of 839mA typical (739mA minimum).
When the peak switch current reaches the current limit, the
duty cycle is terminated resulting in a limit on the maximum
output current and thus the maximum output power the
LM3530 can deliver. Calculate the maximum LED current as
a function of V
INDUCTOR SELECTION
The LM3530 is designed to work with a 10µH to 22µH induc-
tor. When selecting the inductor, ensure that the saturation
rating for the inductor is high enough to accommodate the
peak inductor current . The following equation calculates the
peak inductor current based upon LED current, V

OUTPUT VOLTAGE LIMITATIONS
The LM3530 has a maximum output voltage of 41V typical
(40V minimum) for the LM3530-40 version and 24V typical
(23.6V minimum) for the 25V version. When the output volt-
age rises above this threshold (V

connected LEDs the output voltage can reach the OVP
threshold at larger LED currents and colder ambient temper-
atures. Typically white LEDs have a -3mV/°C temperature
coefficient.
OUTPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION
The LM3530’s output capacitor has two functions: filtering of
the boost converters switching ripple, and to ensure feedback
loop stability. As a filter, the output capacitor supplies the LED
current during the boost converters on time and absorbs the
inductor's energy during the switch off time. This causes a sag
in the output voltage during the on time and a rise in the output
voltage during the off time. Because of this, the output ca-
pacitor must be sized large enough to filter the inductor cur-
rent ripple that could cause the output voltage ripple to
become excessive. As a feedback loop component, the out-
put capacitor must be at least 1µF and have low ESR other-
wise the LM3530's boost converter can become unstable.
This requires the use of ceramic output capacitors.
lists part numbers and voltage ratings for different output ca-
pacitors that can be used with the LM3530.
When choosing L, the inductance value must also be large
enough so that the peak inductor current is kept below the
LM3530's switch current limit. This forces a lower limit on L
