FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
•
The TPS92550 Constant Current Buck LED Driver
Micro-Module drives maximum 450mA LED current
up to 10 LEDs in a single string (maximum 14W). It
integrates all the power components including the
power inductor. The TPS92550 provides a full turnkey, highly efficient solution for wide range of single
string LED lighting applications with up to 96% power
efficiency. It accepts an input voltage ranging from
4.5V to 36V and delivers a 350mA LED current as
default. The LED current is adjustable from 300mA to
450mA by changing a single external resistor.

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Limits in standard type are for TJ = 25°C unless otherwise stated; limits in boldface type apply over the operating junction
temperature range TJ of –40°C to 125°C. Minimum and maximum limits are specified through test, design, or statistical
correlation. Typical values represent the most likely parametric norm at TJ = 25°C, and are provided for reference purposes
only. Unless otherwise stated the following conditions apply: VIN =24 V, ILED = 350mA. VIN is the voltage applied across LED+
and GND. IIN is the input current flowing into the LED+ node. ILED is a LED current flowing into the LED- pin. VLED is the
voltage applied across LED+ and LED-. VDIM is the voltage applied across the DIM pin to ground. Resistor RIADJ connect from
IADJ pin to ground. Resistor RVREF connect from VREF pin to ground.

Operation Description
The TPS92550 is a high power floating buck LED driver with wide input voltage range. It requires no external
current sensing elements and loop compensation network. The integrated power switch enables high output
power up to 14W with 450mA LED current.
High speed dimming control input allows precision and high resolution brightness control for applications which
require fine brightness adjustment.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
SETTING THE LED CURRENT
The TPS92550 requires no external current sensing resistor for LED current regulation. The average LED current
of the TPS92550 is adjustable from 300mA to 450mA by varying the resistance of the resistor according to the
following equation and table.

Minimum Switch On-Time
The on-time of the internal switch should be no shorter than 400ns. The number of LED (typical forward voltage
at 3.2V) to input voltage is constrained by that as shown in the following table.

Peak Switch Current Limit
The TPS92550 features an integrated switch current limiting mechanism to prevent the LEDs from being overdriven. The switch current limiter is triggered when the switch current is three times exceeding the current level
set by resistor. Once the current limiter is triggered, the internal power switch turn OFF for 3.6µs to discharge the
inductor until inductor current reduces back to normal level. The current limiting feature is exceptionally important
to avoid permanent damage of the TPS92550 application circuit due to short circuit of LED string.

PWM Dimming Control
The DIM pin of the TPS92550 is an input with internal pull-up that accepts logic signals for average LED current
control. Applying a logic high (above 1.2V) signal to the DIM pin or leaving the DIM pin open will enable the
device. Applying a logic low signal (below 0.7V) to the DIM pin will disable the switching activity of the device but
maintain operation of the VCC regulator active. The TPS92550 operation of high speed dimming and very fine
dimming control as shown in Figure 34.
Figure 34. Shortened Current Slew up Time of the TPS92550
To ensure normal operation of the TPS92550, it is recommended to set the dimming frequency not higher than
1/10 of the switching frequency. The dim pulse on time is tested down to 16µs. In applications that require high
dimming contrast ratio, low dimming frequency should be used.
Parallel Operation
When a load current higher than 450mA is required by the application, TPS92550 can be used in parallel to
deliver higher current. With common VINs and GNDs, the TPS92550 will operate as independent asynchronous
current sinks driving the same LED load. The total DC current of the modules will be additive; however, low
frequency sub-harmonic current ripple may be present and its frequency and magnitude will depend upon the
phase relationship between the internal clocks as there is no provision for synchronizing driver clocks. It is
suggested to have minimum 2.2μF COUT located close to the module to filter out the current ripple, and the
resultant LED current will become DC. Current sharing modules should have a local CIN capacitor of minimum
2.2μF located as close to VIN and GND as possible. Refer to Figure 35 for the TPS92550 parallel operation
circuit schematic. Refer to Figure 36 for the TPS92550 parallel operation results ILED vs VIN.

PC Board Layout Considerations
The overall performance of the LED driver is highly depends on the PCB layout. Poor board layout can disrupt
the performance of the TPS92550 and surrounding circuitry by contributing to EMI, ground bounce and resistive
voltage drop in the traces. These can send erroneous signals to the LED driver resulting in poor regulation and
stability. Good layout can be implemented by following a few simple design rules.
1. Place CIN as close as possible to the VIN pin and GND exposed pad (EP).
2. Place COUT (optional for reduction of LED current ripple and EMI compliance) as close as possible to the
VLED+ pin and VLED- pin.
3. The exposed pad (EP) must connect to the GND pin directly.
EMI Design Considerations
From an EMI reduction standpoint, it is imperative to minimize the di/dt current paths (refer to Figure 37).
Therefore, it is essential to connect an 2.2µF capacitor (COUT) across the LED+ pin and LED- pin. This will
minimize the ripple current so that it can reduce radiated EMI (refer to Figure 38 and Figure 39).
