nn Automotive Navigation TFT LCD Displays nn Desktop and Notebook TFT LCD Displays The LT®3599 is a fixed frequency 2A step-up DC/DC converter designed to drive four strings of 120mA LEDs up to a 44V output voltage. The switching frequency is programmable from 200kHz to 2.1MHz through an external resistor. LED dimming can be achieved with analog dimming on the CTRL pin, and with pulse width modulation dimming on the PWM pin.
