The ILD6150 is suitable for LED applications with a wide range of supply voltages from 4.5 V to 60 V. A multifunctional PWM input signal allows dimming of the LEDs with an analog DC voltage or an external PWM signal. To minimize colorshifts of the LEDs an analog PWM voltage is converted to an internal 1.6 kHz PWM signal modulating the LED current. The ILD6150 incorporates an undervoltage lock-out that will shut down the IC when the minimum supply voltage threshold is exceeded. The over-current protection turns off the output stage once the output current exceeds the current threshold. An integrated over-temperature protection circuit will start to reduce the LED current by internal PWM modulation once the adjustable junction temperature threshold of the IC is exceeded. Realizing a thermal coupling between LED driver and LEDs this feature eliminates the need of external temperature sensors as NTCs or PTCs. The hysteretic concept the current control is extremely fast and always stable. A maximum contrast ratio of 3000:1 can be achieved depending of the dimensioning of the external components. The efficiency of the LED driver is remarkable high, reaching up to 98 % of efficiency over a wide range. The output current accuracy from device to device and under all load conditions and over temperature is limited to a minimum, making ILD6150 the perfect fit for LED ballasts.

Application Note 7 Revision 2.2, 20 March 2015 Advanced Thermal Protection for High Power LEDs with 60V LED Driver IC ILD6150 Measurement Results 3 Measurement Results 3.1 LED current vs supply voltage The average LED current is determined by the value of the external current sense resistor (R sense), formed by R1, R2 and R3 connected between Vs and Vsense. For ILD6150, the mean current sense threshold voltage is 152mV. The equation that determines the output LED current is given: 𝐼𝑂𝑈𝑇 = 𝑉𝑠 − 𝑉𝑠𝑒𝑛𝑠𝑒 152𝑚𝑉 = 𝑅𝑠𝑒𝑛𝑠𝑒 𝑅𝑠𝑒𝑛𝑠𝑒 The target current setting for the demo board is 1 A. Based on above equation the Rsense is equal to 0.152 Ω. A resistor at the value of 0.15 Ω is chosen for the demo board. The measurement results in this session are based on the condition below, unless otherwise specified: Table 2 Typical condition for measurement Vs Rsense Inductance LED load 48 V 0.15 Ω 47 µH 12 pcs Figure 5 shows the actual operating waveforms.

To minimize the colorshifts of the LEDs, the analog DC voltage is converted into a 1.6 kHz PWM signal modulating the LED current. The linear range of the analog dimming is from 0.5 V to 2.5 V. LEDs is fully turned on for voltage above 2.5 V and fully turned off for voltage below 0.5 V. Figure 7 shows the analog dimming ratio vs PWM pin voltage.

However, it should not be operated with combining both analog and PWM input. For example, input a PWM signal with the input voltage of low level = 0 V and high level = 1.5 V, the output current will be modulated by the internal and external PWM frequency. Application Note 11 Revision 2.2, 20 March 2015 Advanced Thermal Protection for High Power LEDs with 60V LED Driver IC ILD6150 Measurement Results 3.3 Contrast ratio The contrast ratio of a system depends on the dimensioning of the external components, PWM frequency as well as supply voltage. The definition of the contrast ratio (CR) is given as: 𝐶𝑅 = 1 𝐷𝑀𝐼𝑁 Where 𝐷𝑀𝐼𝑁 = 𝑇= 𝑡𝐷 + 𝑡𝑆𝑈 𝑇 1 𝑓𝑃𝑊𝑀 Figure 10 shows the relationship of the PWM and LED current waveforms.

On the other hand, with the PWM frequency of 100 Hz, the contrast ratio of 3000:1 can be achieved. 3.4 Over temperature protection The ILD6150 feature with an integrated over temperature protection (OTP) circuit will start to reduce the LED current by internal PWM modulation once the adjustable junction temperature threshold of the IC is exceeded. The OTP profile can be adjusted by using a resistor connect between between the Tadj pin and GND pin. Figure 12 shows the measurement results of OTP profile with output LED current’s duty cycle vs junction temperature of the ILD6150 by using 0 Ω, 10 kΩ, 20 kΩ, 35 kΩ and open at Tadj pin. With the adjustable OTP, it offers a great flexibility which the starting point of the current reduction at high temperature can be designed according to LED lamp requirement. This new OTP feature offers a great flexibility for the adjustable of the roll-off temperature and eliminates the use of the NTC/PTC thermistor in the system.

Under this condition, the ILD6150 is working in the DC mode, meaning that the DMOS is fully turned on and no switching activities. One of the nice features that ILD6150 offer is during the transition from the DC mode to switch mode, it will not have any overshoot in the output current. Figure 14 shows the LED current measurement results for the entire operating voltage range from 4.5 V to 60 V, Rsense = 0.1 Ω with different number of LEDs as load. Figure 14 LED current at the transition from DC to switch mode Application Note 15 Revision 2.2, 20 March 2015 Advanced Thermal Protection for High Power LEDs with 60V LED Driver IC ILD6150 Measurement Results 3.7 Soft start The soft start of the LED light can be achieved by adding a capacitor at the PWM pin. The ILD6150 having an internal current source of 18 µA will charge up the capacitor at the PWM pin from 0 V to 4.7 V linearly. The soft start timing can be calculated using below equation: 𝑖=𝐶 ∴ 𝑑𝑡 = 𝑑𝑣 𝑑𝑡 𝐶 × 𝑑𝑣 𝑖 Refer to the specification of the analog dimming; the linear range of the output current from 0 % to 100 % is within the range from 0.67 V to 2.43 V. Hence the value of dv is equal to 1.76 V and the current i is equal to 18 µA. For example if a capacitor in the value of 10 µF is connected to the PWM pin, the soft start timing for the light output from 0 % to 100 % require 0.978 second. Figure 15 shows the LED current waveform which modulated by the PWM signal from 0 % to 100 % output. The actual measurement result for the soft start is 1.08 second. Figure 16 shows the average of the LED current during the soft start-up phase.

However, the over current protection feature does not guarantee the protection for the LEDs load. This is because different type of LEDs having different maximum rating on the current specification. The threshold current to trigger the OCP for ILD6150 is 2.5 A. Figure 17 below shows the waveforms where the ILD6150 in the OCP mode. The R sense is shorted, the LEDs load is replaced by a 3 Ω resistor and input supply voltage is 20 V. During the OCP, the MOSFET will be turned off for about 60 µs when the 2.5 A current threshold is reached.

Figure 18 Thermal resistance of PCB-FR4 versus ground copper area The data in the above Figure 18 were measured with the following conditions:  Two copper layers.  2 oz copper (70 µm thick) and board thickness of about 1.6 mm.  FR4 material.  No forced convection.  No heat sink.  No special mask opening for improved heat dissipation.  In the chart, only three points are marked by diamond symbol. These are measured data. The broken line represents intermediate points which can be derived by linear interpolation. Application Note 19 Revision 2.2, 20 March 2015 Advanced Thermal Protection for High Power LEDs with 60V LED Driver IC ILD6150 Measurement Results 3.10 Thermal protection with NTC thermistor The build in thermal protection offers flexibility for the adjustment of roll-off temperature. However, the ILD6150 is required to be placed near the LEDs lamp to optimize this feature. In case where the ILD6150 is placed far away from the LEDs (for example, in the electronic control gear), an external NTC thermistor can be used to realize the thermal protection. The NTC thermistor shall be placed near to the LEDs to sense the temperature of the LEDs accurately. Please refer to Figure 19 for the schematic. When the NTC thermistor is heated up, the resistance of the thermistor will drop and the voltage on the PWM pin will decrease. As the DC voltage on the PWM pin decreased, the output LED current will be reduced by analog dimming and the temperature of the LEDs will be reduced also. Figure 19 Thermal sensing with NTC thermistor Application Note 20 Revision 2.2, 20 March 2015 Advanced Thermal Protection for High Power LEDs with 60V LED Driver IC ILD6150 Measurement Results 3.11 Slow start with additional PMOS for hot swapping In the event where the LED light is require for hot swappable, there is a possibility where the rise time of Vs voltage is very fast. In order to prevent the fast rising time of the Vs which might trigger the internal ESD structure of the ILD6150, it is require a larger blocking capacitor on the Vs pin as described in the datasheet, page 10. To address this, with an additional PMOS by means of limiting the current flow during the hot swapping allows user to choose a smaller size of ceramic capacitor. Figure 20 shows the option of using the PMOS for hot swapping application with a smaller size of capacitor. Figure 20 Schematic of additional PMOS circuitry Application Note 21 Revision 2.2, 20 March 2015 Advanced Thermal Protection for High Power LEDs with 60V LED Driver IC ILD6150 Measurement Results 3.12 Driving of LEDs with current more than 1.5 A by external MOSFETs The build-in MOSFET in the ILD6150 limits the output current up to 1.5 A. In the situation where the LED current of more than 1.5 A is needed, the ILD6070 can be used as a controller to drive an external MOSFET in order to boost the output current. This chapter describes the design idea on how to achieve higher output current for driving high power LEDs. Figure 21 shows the schematic example of applying ILD6070 as a controller and additional components. The extra components required are: 2 pull-up resistors, 2 zener diodes and 2 MOSFETs. The zener diodes at the gates are to prevent the Vgs breakdown of the external MOSFETs as the Vs could be higher than the maximum rating of the MOSFETs. The ILD6070 is a DC/DC LED driver with build in MOSFET up to 700 mA. For more information about the ILD6070, refer to next chapter - References for the link to datasheet.
