LM3433 Description
The LM3433 is an adaptive constant on-time DC/DC buck (step-down) constant current controller (a true current source). The LM3433 provides a constant current for illuminating high power LEDs. The output configuration allows the anodes of multiple LEDs to be tied directly to the ground referenced chassis for maximum heat sink efficacy.
