THEORY OF OPERATION
The LM3410 is a constant frequency PWM, boost regulator
IC. It delivers a minimum of 2.1A peak switch current. The
device operates very similar to a voltage regulated boost con-
verter except that it regulates the output current through
LEDs. The current magnitude is set with a series resistor. This
series resistor multiplied by the LED current creates the feed-
back voltage (190 mV) which the converter regulates to. The
regulator has a preset switching frequency of either 525 kHz
or 1.60 MHz. This high frequency allows the LM3410 to op-
erate with small surface mount capacitors and inductors,
resulting in a DC/DC converter that requires a minimum
amount of board space. The LM3410 is internally compen-
sated, so it is simple to use, and requires few external com-
ponents. The LM3410 uses current-mode control to regulate
the LED current. The following operating description of the
LM3410 will refer to the Simplified Block Diagram (Figure 1)
the simplified schematic (Figure 2), and its associated wave-
forms (Figure 3). The LM3410 supplies a regulated LED
current by switching the internal NMOS control switch at con-
stant frequency and variable duty cycle. A switching cycle

internal oscillator. When this pulse goes low, the output con-
trol logic turns on the internal NMOS control switch. During

which generates an output proportional to the switch current.
The sensed signal is summed with the regulator’s corrective
ramp and compared to the error amplifier’s output, which is
proportional to the difference between the feedback voltage

During the switch off-time, inductor current discharges
through diode D1, which forces the SW pin to swing to the
output voltage plus the forward voltage (V
