Dimmable Power Factor
Corrected LED Driver
NCL30486
The NCL30486 is a power factor corrected flyback controller
targeting isolated constant current LED drivers. The controller
operates in a quasi−resonant mode to provide high efficiency. Thanks
to a novel control method, the device is able to tightly regulate a
constant LED current from the primary side. This removes the need
for secondary side feedback circuitry, its biasing and for an
optocoupler.
The device is highly integrated with a minimum number of external
components. A robust suite of safety protection is built in to simplify
the design. This device is specifically intended for very compact space
efficient designs and supports analog and digital dimming with two
dedicated dimming inputs control ideal for Smart LED Lighting
applications.

NCL30486
Application Information
The NCL30486 implements a current−mode architecture
operating in quasi−resonant mode. Thanks to proprietary
circuitry, the controller is able to accurately regulate the
secondary side current and voltage of the fly−back converter
without using any opto−coupler or measuring directly the
secondary side current or voltage. The controller provides
near unity power factor correction
• Quasi−Resonance
Current−Mode
Operation:
implementing quasi−resonance operation in peak
current−mode control, the NCL30486 optimizes the
efficiency by switching in the valley of the MOSFET
drain−source voltage. Thanks to an internal algorithm
control, the controller locks−out in a selected valley and
remains locked until the input voltage or the output
current set point significantly changes.
• Primary Side Constant Current Control: thanks to a
proprietary circuit, the controller is able to take into
account the effect of the leakage inductance of the
transformer and allows an accurate control of the
secondary side current regardless of the input voltage and
output load variation.
• Primary Side Constant Voltage Regulation: By
monitoring the auxiliary winding voltage, it is possible to
regulate accurately the output voltage. The output voltage
regulation is typically within ±2%.
• Load Transient Compensation: Since PFC has low loop
bandwidth, abrupt changes in the load may cause
excessive over or under−shoot. The slow Over Voltage
Protection contains the output voltage when it tends to
become excessive. In addition, the NCL30486 speeds up
the constant voltage regulation loop when the output
voltage goes below 80% or 85% of its regulation level.
• Power Factor Correction: A proprietary concept allows
achieving high power factor correction and low THD
while keeping accurate constant current and constant
voltage control.
• Line Feed−forward: allows compensating the variation of
the output current caused by the propagation delay.
• VCC Over Voltage Protection: if the VCC pin voltage
exceeds an internal limit, the controller shuts down and
waits 4 seconds before restarting pulsing.
• Fast Over Voltage Protection: If the voltage of ZCD pin
exceeds 130% of its regulation level, the controller shuts
down and waits 4 s before trying to restart.
• Brown−Out: the controller includes a brown−out circuit
which safely stops the controller in case the input voltage
is too low. The device will automatically restart if the line
recovers.
• Cycle−by−cycle peak current limit: when the current
sense voltage exceeds the internal threshold VILIM, the
MOSFET is turned off for the rest of the switching cycle.
• Winding Short−Circuit Protection: an additional
comparator senses the CS signal and stops the controller
•
•
•
•
if VCS reaches 1.5 x VILIM (after a reduced LEB of tBCS).
This additional comparator is enabled only during the
main LEB duration tLEB, for noise immunity reason.
Output Under Voltage Protection: If a too low voltage is
applied on ZCD pin for 90 ms time interval, the
controllers assume that the output or the ZCD pin is
shorted to ground and shutdown. After waiting 4 seconds,
the IC restarts switching.
Analog Dimming: the ADIM pin is dedicated to analog
dimming. There are several options for the minimum
dimming level. Pulling the pin voltage lower than
VADIM(EN) disables the controller.
PWM dimming: the PDIM pin is dedicated to PWM
dimming. The controller measures the duty ratio of a
signal applied to the pin and reduces the output current
accordingly. If this pin is left open, the controller delivers
the maximum output current. If the pin is pulled down, the
controller is disabled.
Thermal Shutdown: an internal circuitry disables the gate
drive when the junction temperature exceeds 150°C
(typically). The circuit resumes operation once the
temperature drops below approximately 100°C.
POWER FACTOR AND CONSTANT CURRENT
CONTROL
The NCL30486 embeds an analog/digital block to control
the power factor and regulate the output current by
monitoring the ZCD, CS and HV pin voltages (signals
VZCD, VHV_DIV, VCS). This circuit generates the current
setpoint signal and compares it to the current sense signal to
turn the MOSFET off. The HV pin provides the sinusoidal
reference necessary for shaping the input current. The
obtained current reference is further modulated so that when
averaged over a half line period, it is equal to the output
current reference (VREFX). The modulation and averaging
process is made internally by a digital circuit. If the HV pin
properly conveys the sinusoidal shape, power factor will be
close to 1. Also, the Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) will
be low especially if the output voltage ripple is small.

The auxiliary winding voltage is sampled internally
through the ZCD pin.
A precise internal voltage reference VREF(CV) sets the

amplifier (OTA) and compared to VREFCV.

Figure 54. Constant Voltage Feedback Circuit
Secondary Side Regulation Compatible
The NCL30486 features a high voltage startup circuit that
allows charging VCC capacitor very fast.
When the power supply is first connected to the mains
outlet, the internal current source is biased and charges up
the VCC capacitor. When the voltage on this VCC capacitor
reaches the VCC(on) level, the current source turns off. At this
time, the controller is only supplied by the VCC capacitor,
and the auxiliary supply should take over before VCC
collapses below VCC(off).
The HV startup circuitry is made of two startup current
levels, IHV(start1) and IHV(start1). This helps to protect the
controller against short−circuit between VCC and GND. At
power−up, as long as VCC is below VCC(TH), the source
delivers IHV(start1) (around 300 mA typical). Then, when
VCC reaches VCC(TH), the source smoothly transitions to
IHV(start2) and delivers its nominal value. As a result, in case
of short−circuit between VCC and GND occurring at high
line (Vin = 305 V rms), the maximum power dissipation will
be 431 x 300 m = 130 mW instead of 1.5 W if there was only
one startup current level.
To speed−up the output voltage rise, the following is
implemented:
• The digital OTA output is increased until VREF(PFC)
signal reaches VREFX. Again, this is to speed−up the
control signal rise to their steady state value.
• At the beginning of each operating phase of a VCC cycle,
the digital OTA output is set to 0. Actually, the digital
OTA output is set to 0 in the case of a cold start−up or in
the case of a start−up sequence following an operation
interruption due to a fault. On the other hand, if the VCC
hiccups just because the system fails to start−up in one
VCC cycle, the digital OTA output is not reset to ease the
second (or more) attempt.
The NCL30486 is able to support secondary−side
regulation as well. The controller features an option to
provide a pullup resistor Rpullup on COMP pin instead of the
CV OTA output. This allows connecting directly an
optocoupler collector and properly biases it. The internal
voltage biasing Rpullup is around 5 V.
In secondary side regulation, the slow and fast OVP on
ZCD pin are still active thus providing an additional over
voltage protection. In this case, the ZCD pin resistors should
be calculated to trigger VOVP2 at the output voltage of
interest.

STARTUP PHASE (HV STARTUP)
It is generally requested that the LED driver starts to emit
light in less than 1 s and possibly within 300 ms. It is
challenging since the start−up consists of the time to charge
the VCC capacitor and that necessary to charge the output
capacitor until sufficient current flows into the LED string.
This second phase can be particularly long in dimming cases
where the secondary current is a portion of the nominal one.

mode with VCC oscillating between VCC(off) and VCC(on)
until the output under voltage protection (UVP) trips.
UVP is triggered if the ZCD pin voltage does not exceed
VZCD(short) within a 90 ms operation of time. This
indicates that the ZCD pin is shorted to ground or that an
excessive load prevents the output voltage from rising.
Cycle−by−Cycle Current Limit
When the current sense voltage exceeds the internal
threshold VILIM, the MOSFET is turned off for the rest of the
switching cycle.
HV Startup Power Dissipation
Winding and Output Diode Short−Circuit Protection
At high line (305 V rms and above) the power dissipated
by the HV startup in case of fault or when the controller is
disabled with PDIM becomes high. Indeed, in case of fault,
the NCL30486 is directly supplied by the HV rail. When the
controller is disabled with PDIM, the optocoupler collector
current is also supplied by the controller, since the
NCL30486 allows directly connecting the optocoupler
transistor to PDIM pin. Thus, the HV startup circuit also
supplies the optocoupler transistor in case of faults. The
current flowing through the HV startup will heat the
controller. It is highly recommended adding enough copper
around the controller to decrease the RqJA of the controller.
Adding a minimum pad area of 215 mm2 of 35 mm copper
(1 oz) drops the RqJA to around 120°C/W (no air flow, RqJA
measured at ADIM pin)
The PCB layout shown in Figure 56 is a layout example
to achieve low RqJA.
In parallel to the cycle−by−cycle sensing of the CS pin,
another comparator with a reduced LEB (tBCS ) and a
threshold of (VCS(stop) = 140% x VILIM ) monitors the CS pin
to detect a winding or an output diode short circuit. The
controller shuts down if it detects 4 consecutives pulses
during which the CS pin voltage exceeds VCS(stop).
The controller goes into auto−recovery mode.
PWM Dimming
The NCL30486 has a dedicated pin for PWM dimming.
The controller directly measures the duty ratio of a PWM
signal applied to PDIM.
Two counters with a high frequency clock are used for this
purpose. A first counter measure the high state duration of
the PWM signal (ton_PDIM) and the second counter measures
its period (Tsw_PDIM). A divider computes (ton_PDIM /
Tsw_PDIM) and the result is directly the output current
setpoint (VREFX set point). A filter is added after the digital
divider to remove the ripple of the signal. A cascode
configuration on PDIM pin allows decreasing the fall time
of the signal.
Thanks to this circuit, the LED current is controlled in an
analog way, even if a PWM signal is used for dimming. This
allows having a good PF during dimming.

Figure 57. PDIM Internal Waveforms
Analog Dimming
Practically, the controller extracts the duty−cycle by
measuring the current inside PDIM pin which is directly the
opto coupler collector current.
If PDIM pin is left open, the controller delivers 100% of
Iout. If the pin is pulled down for longer than 25 ms, the
controller is disabled.
If the PWM dimming signal is removed during dimming,
the controller delivers 100% of Iout.
The NCL30486 set 100% of output current when the
duty−cycle of the signal applied on PDIM is above 93%.
The pin ADIM pin allows implementing analog dimming
of the LED light.
If the power supply designer applies an analog signal
varying from VDIM(EN) to VDIM100 to the DIM pin, the
output current will increase or decrease proportionally to the
voltage applied. For VDIM = VDIM100, the power supply
delivers the maximum output current (VREFX = 1 V).
If a voltage lower than VADIM(MIN) is applied to ADIM
pin, the output current is clamped to the selected dimming
clamp value (see Dimming clamp section below)
www.onsemi.com

NCL30486
If a voltage lower than VADIM(EN) is applied to the DIM
pin, the DRV pulses are disabled for controllers without the
dimming CV mode option.
The DIM pin is pulled up internally by a small current
source or resistor. Thus, if the pin is left open, the controller
is able to start.
NOTE:
• Interaction between ADIM and PDIM: if ADIM and
•
PDIM are both used at the same time, the resulting
dimming set point if a multiplication of VADIM and the
duty−ratio of PDIM signal.
During dimming, when the “Enable” signal is OK, the
controller starts pulsing after 1 time−out pulse, even if a
higher valley number is selected by VREFX. This is to
avoid too long startup time while dimming at low output
current value.

By default, when the output current is not dimmed, the
controller operates in the first valley at low line and in the
second valley at high line.
There is an option to have the valley thresholds
incremented by 1 at high line for better Iout control at
305 V rms.
Quasi−Square wave resonant systems have a wide
switching frequency excursion. The switching frequency
increases when the output load decreases or when the input
voltage increases. The switching frequency of such systems
must be limited.

Zero Crossing Detection Block
The Time−out also acts as a substitute clock for the valley
detection and simulates a missing valley in case of too
damped free oscillations.
At startup, the output voltage reflected on the auxiliary
winding is low. Because of the ZCD resistor bridge setting
the constant voltage regulation target, the voltage on the
ZCD pin is very low and the ZCD comparator might be
unable to detect the valleys. In this condition, setting the
DRV latch with the 6.5 ms time−out leads to a continuous
conduction mode operation (CCM) at the beginning of the
soft−start. This CCM operation only last a few cycles until
the voltage on ZCD pin becomes high enough and trips the
ZCD comparator.
The ZCD pin allows detecting when the drain−source
voltage of the power MOSFET reaches a valley.
A valley is detected when the ZCD pin voltage crosses
below the 55 mV internal threshold.
At startup or in case of extremely damped free
oscillations, the ZCD comparator may not be able to detect
the valleys. To avoid such a situation, Optimus Prime
features a Time−Out circuit that generates pulses if the
voltage on ZCD pin stays below the 55 mV threshold for
6.5 ms.

Figure 61. Valley Detection and Time−out Chronograms
If the ZCD pin or the auxiliary winding happen to be
shorted the time−out function would normally make the
controller keep switching and hence lead to improper
regulation of the LED current.
The Under Voltage Protection (UVP) is implemented to
avoid these scenarios: a secondary timer starts counting
when the ZCD voltage is below the VZCD(short) threshold. If
this timer reaches 90 ms, the controller detects a fault and
enters the auto−recovery fault mode.
Slow OVP
If ZCD voltage exceeds VOVP1 for 4 consecutive
switching cycles, the controller stops switching during
1.4 ms. The PFC loop is not reset. After 1.4 ms, the
controller initiates a new DRV pulse to refresh ZCD
sampling voltage. If VZCD is still too high (VZCD > 110%
VREF(CV)), the controller continues to switch with a 1.4 ms
period. The controller resumes its normal operation when
VZCD < 110% VREF(CV).
During slow OVP, the peak current setpoint is COMP pin
voltage scaled down by a fixed ratio.
ZCD Over Voltage Protection
Because of the power factor correction, it is necessary to
set the crossover frequency of the CV loop very low (target
10 Hz, depending on power stage phase shift). Because the
loop is slow, the output voltage can reach high value during
startup or during an output load step. It is necessary to limit
the output voltage excursion. For this, the NCL30486
features a slow OVP and a fast OVP on ZCD pin.
Fast OVP
If ZCD voltage exceeds VZCD(OVP2) (130% of VREF(CV))
for 4 consecutive switching cycles (slow OVP not triggered)
or for 2 switching cycles if the slow OVP has already been
triggered, the controller detects a fault and starts the
auto−recovery fault mode (cf: Fault Management Section)

proportional to the line voltage is added to the CS signal. The

to not influence the detection of the leakage inductance

The offset is always applied even at light load in order to

condition overrides the hiccup on VCC (VCC does not wait
to reach VCC(off)) and the IC immediately goes into startup
mode.
An option with higher brown−out levels is also available
(see ordering table and electricals parameters)
Line OVP
In order to protect the power supply in case of too high
input voltage, the NCL30486 features a line over voltage
protection. When the voltage on HV pin exceeds VHV(OVP)
the controller stops switching; VCC hiccups.
When VHV becomes lower than VHV(OVP)RST for more
than 25 ms, the controller initiates a clean startup sequence
and re−starts switching.
Brown−out
In order to protect the supply against a very low input
voltage, the controller features a brown−out circuit with a

and shuts−down if the HV pin voltage decreases and stays

Protections
• Winding or Output Diode Short Circuit protection
The circuit incorporates a large variety of protections to
make the LED driver very rugged.
Among them, we can list:
• Fault of the GND connection
If the GND pin is properly connected, the supply current
drawn from the positive terminal of the VCC capacitor,
flows out of the GND pin to return to the negative terminal
of the VCC capacitor. If the GND pin is not connected, the
circuit ESD diodes offer another return path. The
accidental non connection of the GND pin can hence be
detected by detecting that one of this ESD diode is
conducting. Practically, the ESD diode of CS pin is
monitored. If such a fault is detected for 200 ms, the circuit
stops generating DRV pin.
• Output short circuit situation (Output Under Voltage
Protection)
Overload is detected by monitoring the ZCD pin voltage:
if it remains below VZCD(short) for 90 ms, an output short
circuit is detected and the circuit stops generating pulses
for 4 s. When this 4 s delay has elapsed, the circuit
attempts to restart.
• ZCD pin incorrect connection:
♦ If the ZCD pin grounded, the circuit will detect an
output short circuit situation when 90 ms delay has
elapsed.
♦ A 200 kW resistor pulls down the ZCD pin so that
the output short circuit detection trips if the ZCD pin
is not connected (floating).
•
•
•
•
The circuit detects this failure when 4 consecutive DRV
pulses occur within which the CS pin voltage exceeds
(VCS(stop) = 140% x VILIM). In this case, the controller
enters auto−recovery mode (4−s operation interruption
between active bursts).
VCC Over Voltage Protection
The circuit stops generating pulses if the VCC exceeds
VCC(OVP) and enters auto−recovery mode. This feature
protects the circuit if output LEDs happen to be
disconnected.
ZCD fast OVP
If ZCD voltage exceeds VZCD(OVP2) for 4 consecutive
switching cycles (slow OVP not triggered) or for 2
switching cycles if the slow OVP has already been
triggered, the controller detects a fault and enters
auto−recovery mode (4 s operation interruption between
active bursts).
Die Over Temperature (TSD)
The circuit stops operating if the junction temperature
(TJ) exceeds 150°C typically. The controller remains off
until TJ goes below nearly 130°C.
Brown−Out Protection (BO)
The circuit prevents operation when the line voltage is too
low to avoid an excessive stress of the LED driver.
Operation resumes as soon as the line voltage is high
enough and VCC is higher than VCC(on).
www.onsemi.com

NCL30486
• CS pin short to ground
The CS pin is checked at start−up (cold start−up or after
a brown−out event). A current source (Ics(short)) is applied
to the pin and no DRV pulse is generated until the CS pin
exceeds Vcs(low). Ics(short) and Vcs(low) are 500 mA and
60 mV typically (VCS rising). The typical minimum
impedance to be placed on the CS pin for operation is then
120 W. In practice, it is recommended to place more than
•
250 W to take into account possible parametric deviations.
Also, along the circuit operation, the CS pin could happen
to be grounded. If it is grounded, the MOSFET
conduction time is limited by the 20 ms maximum
on−time. If such an event occurs, a new pin impedance
test is made.
