Introduction

Introduction
This application note is an engineering report of GU10 LED lamp reference design for universal input 7.5W
180mA converter. The converter is using ICL8201 (SOT23-6-1), average current controlled, non-isolated
single stage buck topology in cascode structure LED driver and IPU50R3K0CE (IPAK), a CE series of high
voltage power CoolMOS™. With this cascode structure, system can achieve fast IC start up without the need
to use a costly depletion MOSFET or alternatively a low cost start up resistor that causes continuous power
losses during normal operation. This reference design is a single stage design with high efficiency and power
factor, critical conduction operation mode with single choke(without auxiliary winding), truly regulated
output current over a wide input and output voltage range, good EMI performance and various modes of
protections for high reliability with minimum external components.

Single stage power factor correction
Single stage power factor correction (PFC) zero current detection bulk helps realising highly efficient, cost
effective and compact LED driver design. In this reference board, ICL8201 achieves the single stage power factor
correction by fixing on time over half AC sinusoidal cycle waveform.
As can be noted from below picture, the averaged input current is shaped to be approximately sinusoidal and thus
high power factor is achieved with input current harmonics fulfilling the requirements of EN 61000-3-2 standard.

Reference board set up, test waveforms and results
9.1
Input and output
The input of REF-ICL8201_GU10 is Live (L) and Neutral (N) wires and its operating input AC voltage range is
90VAC ~265 VAC.
The output of REF-ICL8201_GU10 is LED+ and LED- wires which can supply 40V, 180mA to the LED module.
Attention: As this is a non-isolated design, high voltage exists at the output! An isolated transformer is
advised to be used during evaluating of this reference board.
9.2
Start up
When the AC input voltage is applied to the reference board, VCC capacitor will be charged through external
LED module, Buck choke (L3), external power switch (Q1) and VCC diode (D3). Once the VCC voltage reaches
7.5V, the IC will start switching with a digital soft start and enter into normal operation.

Switching waveform
The current mode controller, ICL8201 uses zero current switching technique without zero crossing detection
winding but by sensing the drain pin voltage of the controller. This helps to simplify the structure of the buck
choke without auxiliary winding and improve both EMI and efficiency performance. Typical switching
waveform of ICL8201 is as shown below.
VDS_high_max150℃). If the
temperature continues to increase and exceeds Tj > 160 °C, the IC will enter LATCH OFF mode. Figure 17 is
the real testing curve (ILED vs. AMB) which is tested under the condition of putting GU10 board into oven.
Measuring the ILED corresponding to AMB (Ambient Temperature) from -25℃ to +135℃. GU10 board starts
to reduce ILED from 155mA@ AMB=125℃ to 76.7mA@ AMB=132.9℃ which is about 50% of 155mA. Continue
to increase AMB, GU10 board enter to latch mode @ AMB=135℃.
