Switch Controlled Direct Drive Linear Controller for Offline
LED Drivers

Introduction
The TPS92410EVM-001 evaluation module (EVM) helps designers evaluate the operation and
performance of the TPS92410 direct drive linear controller designed for use with the TPS92411 in offline
LED-drive applications. The TPS92410 is designed to control the drive of high-brightness light emitting
diodes (LEDs) and features a wide input voltage range (9.5 V to 400 V), thermal foldback, analog dimming
capability, and linear FET overvoltage protection.
2
Warnings and Cautions
Observe the following precautions when using the TPS92410EVM-001.
WARNING
High Voltage
CAUTION
DO NOT STARE DIRECTLY INTO THE LED LIGHT SOURCE.
Intense light sources have a high secondary blinding effect. A temporary
reduction in visual acuity and afterimages can occur, leading to irritation,
annoyance, visual impairment, and even accidents – depending on the
situation. Always consider the use of light filtering and darkening protective
eyewear and be fully aware of surrounding laboratory type set-ups when
viewing intense light sources to minimize or eliminate such risks in order to
avoid accidents related to temporary blindness.
WARNING
Do not stare at the operating LED – (Risk Group 1
(RG1)). See IEC62471-1 ed1.0:2009-08 for risk group definitions.

Description
The TPS92410EVM-001 provides a high-brightness LED driver based on the TPS92410 in conjunction
with the TPS92411 direct drive switch. It is designed to operate with an input voltage in the range of 90
VAC to 135 VAC with a 120 VAC nominal input voltage. This input voltage range is typical for offline
applications. The EVM is set up for a default input current of 58 mA for 6.8 W total power and 3 LED
voltage stacks of 20 V, 40 V, and 80 V. The TPS92410 helps provide high efficacy, good power factor, low
THD, and flicker-free triac and phase dimming, due to its dimmer detect function that switches the input
current mode to a DC level.
3.1
Typical Applications
This converter design describes an application of the TPS92410 as an LED driver controller with the
specifications listed in Section 4. For applications with a different input voltage range or different output
voltage range, refer to the TPS92410 datasheet (SLUSBW9) and TPS92411 datasheet (SLUSBQ6).
3.2
Connector Descriptions
This section describes the connectors and test points on the EVM and how to properly connect, setup,
and use the TPS92410EVM-001.
3.2.1
J1
The screw down connector J1 is for the input voltage supply to the LED driver. The leads to the input
supply should be twisted and kept as short as possible to minimize voltage drop, inductance, and EMI
transmission. The input is not polarized. Line and neutral may be connected to either terminal.
3.2.2
VPx, VSx, ISx
The test points VP1, VS1, IS1, VP2, VS2, IS2, VP3, VS3, and IS3 are for testing the different LED stack
voltages and currents. For example, connect a voltmeter from VP1 to IS1 across the 1-Ω resistor, R1, to
measure the current in the top (80 V) LED string (1 mV = 1 mA). Connect a voltmeter from VP1 to VS1 to
measure the top stack voltage. The middle and lower stack currents and voltages can be measured in the
same way using the test points labeled with 2 and 3, respectively.
3.2.3
ADIM
The test point ADIM connects directly to the ADIM pin of the TPS92410. The voltage range is 0 V to 3 V.
Applying a voltage between 1.5 V and 3 V allows the internal reference to take over, resulting in a 1.5-V
reference at the CS pin. Applying a voltage below 1.5 V results in the applied voltage being the reference
at the CS pin down to 50 mV. Below 50 mV, the linear regulator is disabled and the GDL pin is pulled to
ground.
