The LT®3799-1 is an isolated flyback controller with power factor correction specifically designed for driving LEDs. The controller operates using critical conduction mode allowing the use of a small transformer. Using a novel current sensing scheme, the controller is able to deliver a well regulated current to the secondary side without using an opto-coupler. A strong gate driver is included to drive an external high voltage MOSFET. Utilizing an onboard multiplier, The LT3799-1 uses a micropower hysteretic start-up to efficiently operate at offline input voltages, with a third winding to provide power to the part. An internal LDO provides a well regulated supply for the part’s internal circuitry and gate driver. Isolated PFC LED Driver with Minimum Number of External Components VIN and VOUT Limited Only by External Components Active Power Factor Correction (Typical PFC > 0.97) Low Harmonic Content No Opto-Coupler Required Accurate Regulated LED Cur...
