Description
IS31LT3948 is a PFM step-up DC-DC converter
designed for driving the white LED arrays for large size
LCD panel backlighting applications. With internal OVP
circuit, the chip and the system can be safe even if the
load is not connected. The device features external
PWM dimming or DC dimming, which allows the
flexible control of the backlighting luminance.
IS31LT3948 incorporates a unique FB scheme which
automatically adjusts the integrated DC/DC converter
to the optimum output voltage for the system,
maximizing the efficiency.
IS31LT3948 general DEMO board is used in general
lamp.
Features
Wide input voltage range: 5V-100V
Constant Current Output limited only by external
component selection (Note)
No loop compensation required
Internal over-voltage protection
Internal over-temperature protection
Note: The maximum output current is determined by Vout/Vin
ratio as well as the external components. If output current and
Vout/Vin ratio is high, high current components of inductor
and NMOS are needed.

Caution: Do not exceed the conditions listed above, otherwise
the board will be damaged or the output current will be
limited.
Procedure
The IS31LT3948 DEMO Board is fully assembled and
tested. Follow the steps listed below to verify board
operation.
Caution: Do not turn on the power supply until all connections
are completed.
1)
Connect the negative terminal of the power supply
to the VIN1 pin and the positive terminal to the
VIN2 pin.
2)
Connect the negative of the LED panel (LED
arrays) to the LED- terminal.
3)
Connect the positive of the LED panel (LED arrays)
to the LED+ terminal.
4)
Turn on the power supply and the LED panel (LED
arrays) will be light.
