  Triple LED Driver in 4mm Г— 5mm QFN Supports LCD
  Backlights in Buck, Boost or Buck-Boost Modes and
  Delivers 3000:1 PWM Dimming Ratio
  Design Note 449
  Hua (Walker) Bai
  Introduction
  By integrating three independent LED drivers, the LTВ®3496
  offers a highly efficient, compact and cost-effective
  solution to drive multiple LED strings. All three drivers
  have independent on/off and PWM dimming control, and
  can drive different numbers or types of LEDs. High side
  current sensing and built-in gate drivers for PMOS LED
  disconnect allow the LT3496 to operate in buck, boost,
  SEPIC or buck-boost modes with up to 3000:1 True Color
  PWMв„ў dimming ratio.
  The LT3496 is offered in a single 4mm Г— 5mm QFN or
  FE28 package. The efficiency of each driver can exceed
  95%. Integrated PMOS Drivers Improve PWM Dimming
  Ratio to 3000:1
  A high PWM dimming ratio is critical in many display
  applications, especially in high end LCD panels. Beware,
  though, the definition of dimming ratio varies among
  suppliers. When comparing dimming ratios, pay close …

  Introduction
  The LT3496 is a triple output DC/DC
  converter designed for high performance, True Color PWMTM dimming
  in multichannel LED lighting applications. By integrating three independent
  driver channels, the LT3496 provides
  a space-saving and cost-efficient solution to drive multiple LED strings.
  FigureВ 1 shows a 50W LT3496 3-channel LED driver that occupies 350mm2
  and with a sub-1.5mm profile.
