General Description
The LM3409/09HV are P-channel MosFET (PFET) controllers for step-down (buck) current regulators. They offer wide input voltage
range, high-side differential current sense with low adjustable threshold voltage, fast output enable/disable function and
a thermally enhanced eMSOP-10 package. These features combine to make the LM3409/09HV ideal for use as constant current sources
for driving LEDs where forward currents up to 5A are easily achievable. The LM3409/09HV uses Constant Off-Time (COFT) control
to regulate an accurate constant current without the need for external control loop compensation. Analog and PWM dimming
are easy to implement and result in a highly linear dimming range with excellent achievable contrast ratios. Programmable
UVLO, low-power shutdown, and thermal shutdown complete the feature set.

Note: The Early Failure Rates (EFR) were calculated as point estimate PPM based on rejects and sample size for EFR.
The Long Term Failure Rates were calculated
at 60% confidence using the Arrhenius equation at 0.7eV activation energy and derating the assumed stress
temperature of 150°C to an application temperature of 55°C.
