LTM8042/LTM8042-1
µModule Boost LED Driver
and Current Source
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
n
The LTM®8042 is a complete μModule® Boost LED Driver
specifically designed to drive LEDs up to 1A, while the
LTM8042-1 drives up to 350mA. It combines a boost
power topology with a unique current loop to operate as
a constant-current source. The PWM input provides as
much as 3000:1 LED dimming, while 10:1 analog dimming
can be accomplished by a single resistor or analog voltage
applied to the CTL pin. As with any boost topology, the
LTM8042/LTM8042-1 has an uninterrupted current path
between its input and output and is thus intolerant to a
short-circuit or overload from the output to ground.

The LTM8042I/LTM8042I-1 are guaranteed to meet specifications over
the full –40°C to 125°C internal operating temperature range. Note that
the maximum internal temperature is determined by specific operating
conditions in conjunction with board layout, the rated package thermal
resistance and other environmental factors.
Note 4: This device includes overtemperature protection that is intended
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed the maximum internal operating temperature
when overtemperature protection is active. Continuous operation above
the specified maximum operating junction temperature may impair device
reliability.

PIN FUNCTIONS
GND (Bank 1): Signal and Power Return. Tie these pads
to a local ground plane below the LTM8042/LTM8042-1
and the circuit components. In most applications, the
bulk of the heat flow out of the LTM8042/LTM8042-1 is
through these pads, so the printed circuit design has a
large impact on the thermal performance of the part. See
the PCB Layout and Thermal Considerations sections for
more details.
VCC (Bank 2): Internal Housekeeping Power for the
LTM8042/LTM8042-1. Connect to an external power
source between 3V and 30V. The LTM8042/LTM8042-1
can withstand transients of 40V.
BSTIN/BKLED– (Bank 3): Power Input for Boost Operation,
as Well as the Cathode Connection for the LED String in
Buck Mode. If the LTM8042/LTM8042-1 is used in boost
mode, these pins must be locally decoupled.
BSTOUT/BKIN (Bank 4): Output of the Boost Converter,
as Well as the Input for Buck Mode. If the LTM8042/
LTM8042-1 is used in buck mode, these pins must be
locally decoupled.
LED+ (Bank 5): Connect this to the anode of the LED
string. This can also be connected to the PWM dimming
MOSFET if used.
RUN (Pin F1): Module Enable. Tie to 1.5V or higher to
enable the LTM8042/LTM8042-1 or 0.4V or less to disable device.
SYNC (Pin G1): Frequency Synchronization Pin. Tie an
external clock signal here. The RT resistor should be
chosen to program a switching frequency that is 20%
slower than SYNC pulse frequency. Tie the SYNC pin to
GND if this feature is not used.
RT (Pin H1): Timing Resistor Pin. Used to program the
switching frequency of the LTM8042/LTM8042-1 by connecting a resistor from this pin to GND. The Applications
Information section of the data sheet includes a table
to determine the resistance value based on the desired
switching frequency. Minimize capacitance at this pin.
SS (Pin J1): Soft-Start Pin. Place a soft-start capacitor
here. Leave the pin open if not used.
80421fa

LTM8042/LTM8042-1
PIN FUNCTIONS
TG (Pin J7): Top Gate Driver Output. In response to an
active high PWM signal, this pin will drive the gate of an
external series P-channel MOSFET device low. An internal
7V clamp protects the PFET gate. This pin can also be used
to disconnect the load when RUN is pulled low. Leave TG
unconnected if not used.
PWM (Pin K1): Pulse Width Modulation Input Pin. A low
signal turns off the LED string, disables the main switch
and pulls the TG pin high. Drive above 1.55V to deliver
current to the output. Tie the PWM pin to the RUN pin if
not used. There is an equivalent 50k resistor from PWM
pin to ground internally.
CTL (Pin L2): LED Current Adjustment Pin. Apply a voltage
between approximately 1V and 0V to modulate the LED+
output current, or tie a resistor to GND to modulate the
LED+ current. CTL is internally tied to a 2V precision reference via a 20k 1% resistor. Leave floating if unused.
TGEN (Pin L3): Top Gate (TG) Enable Input Pin. Tie to 1.5V
or higher to enable the P-channel MOSFET driver function.
Tie the TGEN pin to ground if the TG function is not used.
There is an internal 40k resistor from TGEN to GND.

LTM8042/LTM8042-1
OPERATION
The LTM8042/LTM8042-1 is a complete, full featured,
current mode regulator specifically designed to drive light
emitting diodes (LEDs) or other loads where a constant current up to 1A (350mA for the LTM8042-1) is required.
The LTM8042/LTM8042-1 can operate in any of three LED
drive topologies: boost, buck mode and buck-boost mode.
The device features both analog and PWM dimming, a PWM
P-channel MOSFET driver, and a suite of control functions:
RUN control, soft-start, user programmable switching
frequency, and external frequency synchronization.
Operation can be best understood by referring to the
Block Diagram. The power stage is a boost converter that
regulates the output current by reading the voltage across
a power sense resistor that is in series with the output.
As with any boost topology, there is an uninterrupted current path between the input and output terminals. Current
between these two terminals is not limited, so the device
is intolerant to a short-circuit or overload from any of the
output terminals (LED+, BSTOUT/BKIN) to GND.
There are two ways to dim a LED with the LTM8042/
LTM8042-1. One way is to adjust the current on the LED
array by setting the analog voltage on the CTL pin. The
CTL pin is internally pulled up to a precision 2V reference
through a 1% 20k resistor. Leaving the CTL pin floating
sets the LED pin current to 1A. Reducing the voltage below
1.1V on the CTL pin proportionally reduces the current
flowing out of LED+. This can be accomplished by connecting a resistor from the CTL pin to GND, forming a divider
network with the internal 20k resistor, or by driving the
CTL pin directly to a voltage source, such as a DAC.
The other way the LTM8042/LTM8042-1 can dim a LED
array is by pulse width modulation using the PWM pin
and an optional external P-channel MOSFET. The external
P-channel MOSFET can be conveniently operated by the
integrated gate driver at pin TG. The gate drive function
can be enabled or disabled by the TGEN pin.
If the PWM pin is pulled high, the part operates normally. If the PWM pin is unconnected or pulled low, the
LTM8042/LTM8042-1 stops switching and the internal
control circuitry is held in its present state. This way, the
LTM8042/LTM8042-1 “remembers” the current sourced
from the LED+ output until PWM is pulled high again.
This leads to a highly linear relationship between pulse
width and output light, allowing for a large and accurate
dimming range.
The RUN pin is used to deactivate the LTM8042/LTM8042-1.
When the RUN pin is pulled to a logic low state, the device
is shut down and draws typically less than 1μA of current.
The SS pin is used to limit inrush current during start-up.
The LTM8042/LTM8042-1 integrates a current source with
this function, so only a capacitor is necessary to establish
the soft-start characteristics of the output current.
The switching frequency is set by applying a single resistor
from the RT pin to GND, allowing operation anywhere from
250kHz to 2MHz, and the SYNC pin allows synchronization to an external source between 300kHz and 2.5MHz.

LTM8042/LTM8042-1
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
For most applications, the design process is straight
forward, summarized as follows:
1. Decide whether the LTM8042/LTM8042-1 should operate
in boost, buck, or buck-boost mode.
2. Look at Tables 1 through 6 and find the line that best
matches the input and output conditions of the system
under consideration.
3. Connect CIN, COUT, CVCC and RT as indicated in the
appropriate table.
4. Connect the remaining pins as needed by the system
requirements.
While these component combinations have been tested for
proper operation, it is incumbent upon the user to verify
proper operation over the intended system’s line, load and
environmental conditions.
If the desired LED current is not listed in Tables 1 through 6,
set it by applying the proper voltage the CTL pin. Graphs
of the LTM8042/LTM8042-1 LED current scaling vs CTL
voltage are given in the Typical Performance Characteristics section. If a voltage source is not available to drive
the CTL pin, a resistor may be applied from the CTL pin
to GND. The CTL pin is internally pulled up to a 2V reference voltage through a 20k resistor (please see the Block
Diagram for details).
Open LED Protection
The LTM8042/LTM8042-1 has internal open LED circuit protection. If the LED is absent or fails open, the
LTM8042/LTM8042-1 clamps the voltage on the LED+ and
BSTOUT/BKIN pin to protect the output against overvoltage.
The internal boost switching converter then regulates its
output to 36V. In buck mode, the full open LED voltage is
stood off by the internal power Schottky diode. At high
operating temperatures, the power Schottky reverse leakage current will rise. This increases the power dissipation
within the diode, which raises the junction temperature.
This temperature rise can be large, so care needs to be
taken at high operating temperatures.
Setting the Switching Frequency
The LTM8042/LTM8042-1 uses a constant frequency
architecture that can be programmed over a 250kHz to
2MHz range with a single external timing resistor from the
RT pin to ground. Table 7 shows suggested RT selections
for a variety of switching frequencies.

The other way to set the operating frequency of the
LTM8042/LTM8042-1 is to drive the SYNC pin with an
external signal. For proper operation, a resistor should be
connected at the RT pin and be able to generate a switching frequency 20% lower than the external clock when the
external clock is absent.
In general, a lower switching frequency should be used
where either very high or very low switching duty cycle
operation is required, or high efficiency is desired. Selection
of a higher switching frequency will allow use of smaller
value external components and yield a smaller solution
size and profile.
Operating Modes
The LTM8042/LTM8042-1 employs a ground referred power
switch to implement a boost power switching circuit. As
such, it can be used to implement the three most popular
LED driving topologies: boost, buck mode, and buck-boost
mode. Example layouts of each operating mode are given
in Figures 2 through 4 and schematics are shown in the
Typical Applications section.

LTM8042/LTM8042-1
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Which mode to use depends upon the operating conditions. Boost is generally selected when the voltage across
the LED string is always higher than the input voltage. Buck
mode is the dual of boost, used when the voltage across
the LED string is always lower than VIN. Finally, buck-boost
mode is used when the VIN can vary both above and below
the voltage across the LED string.
The land grid array of the LTM8042/LTM8042-1 is designed
to conveniently accommodate all three operating modes.
Please refer to the PCB Layout section for suggested
examples of how to lay out each operating mode.
PWMRATIO =
Dimming Control
There are two methods to control the current source for
dimming using the LTM8042/LTM8042-1. One method
uses the PWM pin to modulate the current source between
zero and full current to achieve a precisely programmed
average current. To make this method of current control
more accurate, the switch demand current is internally
stored during the quiescent phase (PWM low). This feature
minimizes recovery time when the PWM signal returns
high. When using PWM dimming, use a P-channel MOSFET
disconnect switch in the LED current path (see Figure 1)
to prevent the output capacitor from discharging during
the PWM off-time. Enable this function by pulling TGEN
above 1.5V.
LTM8042
VIN
The minimum PWM on or off-time will depend on the
choice of operating frequency through the RT input pin or
the SYNC pin. When using the SYNC function, the SYNC
and PWM signals must have the rising edges aligned to
achieve the optimized high PWM dimming ratio. For best
current accuracy, the minimum PWM low or high time
should be at least six switching cycles (3μs for ƒSW =
2MHz). The maximum PWM period is determined by the
system. The maximum PWM dimming ratio (PWMRATIO)
can be calculated from the maximum PWM period (TMAX)
and the minimum PWM pulse width (TMIN) as follows:
VCC
BSTIN/BKLED–
TGEN
(1)
A set of values that give a 3000:1 dimming ratio, for example, would be a switching frequency of ƒSW = 2MHz,
TMAX = 9ms and TMIN = 3μs. Equation (1) becomes:
PWMRATIO = 9ms/3μs = 3000:1
The second method of dimming control uses the CTL pin
to linearly adjust the current sense threshold during the
PWM high state. When the CTL pin voltage is less than
1V, the LED current is:
ILED = VCTL
When VCTL is higher than 1.1V, the LED current is clamped
to 1A.
The LED current programming feature can be used in
conjunction with the PWM to possibly increase the total
dimming range by an additional factor of ten.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
PCB Layout
Most of the headaches associated with PCB layout have
been alleviated or even eliminated by the high level of
integration of the LTM8042/LTM8042-1. The device is
nevertheless a switching power supply, and care must be
taken to minimize EMI and ensure proper operation. Even
with the high level of integration, you may fail to achieve
specified operation with a haphazard or poor layout. See
Figures 2, 3 and 4 for suggested layouts of boost, buck
and buck-boost operating modes.
4. Place the CIN, CVCC and COUT capacitors such that their
ground current flows directly adjacent to or underneath
the LTM8042/LTM8042-1.
5. Connect all of the GND connections to as large a copper
pour or plane area as possible on the top layer. Avoid
breaking the ground connection between the external
components and the LTM8042/LTM8042-1.
Use vias to connect the GND copper area to the board’s
internal ground planes. Liberally distribute these GND vias
to provide both a good ground connection and thermal
path to the internal planes of the printed circuit board.
Pay attention to the location and density of the thermal
vias in Figures 2 through 4. The LTM8042/LTM8042-1
can benefit from the heat sinking afforded by vias that
connect to internal GND planes at these locations, due to
their proximity to internal power handling components.
The optimum number of thermal vias depends upon the
printed circuit board design. For example, a board might
use very small via holes. It should employ more thermal
vias than a board that uses larger holes.
Ensure that the grounding and heat sinking are acceptable.
A few rules to keep in mind are:
1. Place the RT resistor as close as possible to its respective pins.
2. Place the CIN and CVCC capacitor as close as possible
to the VIN and GND connections of the LTM8042/
LTM8042-1.
3. Place the COUT capacitor as close as possible to the
BSTOUT/BKIN or BSTIN/BKLED– and GND connection
of the LTM8042/LTM8042-1.

LTM8042/LTM8042-1
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Thermal Considerations
The LTM8042/LTM8042-1 output current may need to be
derated if it is required to operate in a high ambient temperature or deliver a large amount of continuous power.
The amount of current derating is dependent upon the
input voltage, output power and ambient temperature. The
temperature rise curves given in the Typical Performance
Characteristics section can be used as a guide. These curves
were generated by an LTM8042/LTM8042-1 mounted to a
51cm2 4-layer FR4 printed circuit board. Boards of other
sizes and layer count can exhibit different thermal behavior,
so it is in-cumbent upon the user to verify proper operation
over the intended system’s line, load and environmental
operating conditions.
The thermal resistance numbers listed in the Pin Configuration section of the data sheet are based on modeling the
μModule package mounted on a test board specified per
JESD51-9 (“Test Boards for Area Array Surface Mount
Package Thermal Measurements”). The thermal coefficients provided are based on JESD 51-12 (“Guidelines
for Reporting and Using Electronic Package Thermal
Information”).
For increased accuracy and fidelity to the actual application, many designers use finite element analysis (FEA) to
predict thermal performance. To that end, the Pin Configuration section of the data sheet typically gives four
thermal coefficients:
1. θJA : thermal resistance from junction to ambient.
2. θJCBOTTOM : thermal resistance from junction to the
bottom of the product case.
3. θJCTOP : thermal resistance from junction to top of the
product case.
4. θJB: thermal resistance from junction to the printed
circuit board.
While the meaning of each of these coefficients may seem to
be intuitive, JEDEC has defined each to avoid confusion and
inconsistency. These definitions are given in JESD 51-12,
and are quoted or paraphrased in the following:
1. θJA is the natural convection junction-to-ambient air
thermal resistance measured in a one cubic foot sealed
enclosure. This environment is sometimes referred to as
“still air” although natural convection causes the air to
move. This value is determined with the part mounted to
a JESD 51-9 defined test board, which does not reflect
an actual application or viable operating condition.
2. θJCBOTTOM is the junction-to-board thermal resistance
with all of the component power dissipation flowing
through the bottom of the package. In the typical
μModule regulator, the bulk of the heat flows out the
bottom of the package, but there is always heat flow
out into the ambient environment. As a result, this
thermal resistance value may be useful for comparing
packages but the test conditions don’t generally match
the user’s application.
3. θJCTOP is determined with nearly all of the component
power dissipation flowing through the top of the
package. As the electrical connections of the typical
μModule regulator are on the bottom of the package,
it is rare for an application to operate such that most of
the heat flows from the junction to the top of the part.
As in the case of θJCBOTTOM, this value may be useful
for comparing packages but the test conditions don’t
generally match the user’s application.
4. θJB is the junction-to-board thermal resistance where
almost all of the heat flows through the bottom of the
μModule regulator and into the board, and is really the
sum of the θJCBOTTOM and the thermal resistance of
the bottom of the part through the solder joints and
through a portion of the board. The board temperature is
measured a specified distance from the package, using
a two sided, two layer board. This board is described
in JESD 51-9.

LTM8042/LTM8042-1
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The most appropriate way to use the coefficients is when
running a detailed thermal analysis, such as FEA, which
considers all of the thermal resistances simultaneously.
None of them can be individually used to accurately predict the thermal performance of the product, so it would
be inappropriate to attempt to use any one coefficient to
correlate to the junction temperature versus load graphs
given in the LTM8042/LTM8042-1 data sheet.
The die temperature of the LTM8042/LTM8042-1 must be
lower than the maximum rating of 125°C, so care should
be taken in the layout of the circuit to ensure good heat
sinking of the LTM8042/LTM8042-1. The bulk of the
heat flow out of the LTM8042/LTM8042-1 is through the
bottom of the module and the LGA pads into the printed
circuit board. Consequently, a poor printed circuit board
design can cause excessive heating, resulting in impaired
performance or reliability. Please refer to the PCB Layout
section for printed circuit board design suggestions.
A graphical representation of these thermal resistances
is given in Figure 5.
The blue resistances are contained within the μModule
regulator, and the green are outside.
