High Contrast Shunt FET Dimming
The regulator operates using a constant off-time,
peak current control. The operation is simple: after an
off-time based on the output voltage, an on-time
begins. The on-time ends once the inductor peak
current threshold is reached. The TPS92515 device
can be configured to maintain a constant peak-topeak ripple during the ON and OFF periods of a
shunt FET dimming cycle. This is ideal for
maintaining a linear response across the entire shunt
FET dimming range.
Steady-state accuracy is aided by the inclusion of a
low-offset, high-side comparator. LED current can be
modulated using either Analog or PWM dimming, or
both simultaneously. Other features include UVLO,
wide input voltage operation, inherent LED Open
operation and wide operating temperature range with
thermal shut-down.
The TPS92515 and TPS92515-Q1 devices have an
operational input range up to 42 V. The TPS92515HV
and TPS92515HV-Q1 offer high-voltage options with
an input range up to 65 V. All are available in a
thermally enhanced 10-pin HVSSOP package.

The TPS92515 family of devices are compact
monolithic switching regulators integrating a low
resistance N-Channel MOSFET. The devices are
intended for high-brightness LED lighting applications
where efficiency, high bandwidth, PWM and/or analog
dimming and small size are important.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The TPS92515 is an internal N-channel MOSFET (monolithic NFET) hysteric control, buck regulator. Hysteretic
operation allows a high control bandwidth and is ideal for shunt FET and LED matrix applications (series LED
switched network). The high-side differential current sense with low adjustable threshold voltage via a 10:1
divider, provides an excellent method for regulating output current while maintaining high system efficiency. The
device uses a controlled OFF-time (COFT) architecture to allow the converter to operate in both continuous
conduction mode (CCM) and discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) with no external control loop compensation,
and provides an inherent cycle-by-cycle current limit.
The adjustable current sense threshold provides the capability for analog dimming the LED current over the full
range and the PWM dimming input allows for high-frequency PWM dimming control requiring no external
components. Configuration options allow for easy implementation of external shunt FET dimming. See also the
OFF-Timer, Shunt FET Dimming or Shunted Output Condition section.
The device does not internally limit the maximum attainable average LED current. It does have a thermal limit
based on the maximum junction temperature. The maximum junction temperature is a function of the system
operating points (efficiency, ambient temperature, thermal management), component choices, and switching
frequency. This functionality allows the device to provide constant currents up to 1 A in a wide variety of
applications and up to 2 A in a smaller sub-set of applications. This simple regulator contains all the features
necessary to implement a high-efficiency, versatile, high-performance LED driver.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 General Operation
The TPS92515 operates using a peak-current, constant OFF-time as described in Figure 11. Two states dictate
the high-side FET control. The switch turns on and stays on until the programmed peak current is reached. The
peak current is controlled by monitoring the voltage across the sense resistor. When the voltage drop is higher
than the programmed threshold, the peak current is reached, and the switch is turned OFF, which initiates the
OFF-time period. A capacitor on the COFF pin is then charged through a resistor connected to the output. When
the COFF pin voltage reaches the 1-V (typical) threshold, the OFF-time ends. The COFF pin capacitor resets
and the main switch turns ON, and the next cycle begins.

Although commonly referred to as constant OFF-time, the OFF-time control voltage is normally derived from the
output voltage. This connection ensures constant peak-to-peak ripple. To maintain a constant ripple over various
input and output voltages, the converter OFF-time becomes shorter or longer resulting in a change in frequency.
If the input voltage and output voltage are relatively constant, the frequency also remains constant. If either the
input voltage or the output voltage changes, the frequency changes. For a fixed input voltage, the device
operates at the maximum frequency at 50% duty cycle and the frequency reduces as the duty cycle becomes
shorter or longer. A graphical representation is shown in Figure 12. For a fixed output voltage (VLED), the
frequency is always the maximum at the highest input voltage as shown in Figure 13.

By making the OFF-time proportional to the output voltage, it is possible to illustrate how VLED can be removed
from the output current equation. When VLED >> VOFT , the output ripple can be defined as shown in Equation 1.

design example that uses the more detailed equation. A VLED > 10 V ensures a linear charging ramp below 1 V.
