It combines a high- performance low voltage PWM controller chip and an 800 V, avalanche rugged Power MOSFET, in the same package. The PWM is a current mode controller IC specifically designed for ZVS (“Zero Voltage Switching”) flyback LED drivers, with constant output current (CC) regulation using primary sensing feedback (PSR). This eliminates the need for the optocoupler, the secondary voltage reference, as well as the current sense on the secondary side, while still maintaining a good LED current accuracy. Moreover, it guarantees a safe operation when short-circuit of one or more LEDs occurs. The device can also provide a constant output voltage regulation (CV): it allows the application to be able to work safely when the LED string opens due to a failure. In addition, the device offers the shorted secondary rectifier (i.e., LED string shorted due to a failure) or transformer saturation detection. Quasi-resonant operation is achieved by means of a transformer demagnetization sensing input that triggers MOSFET turn-on. This input serves also as both output voltage monitor, to perform CV regulation, and input voltage monitor, to achieve mains-independent CC regulation (line voltage feedforward). The maximum switching frequency is top limited below 166 kHz, so that at medium-light load a special function automatically lowers the operating frequency while still maintaining the operation as close to ZVS as possible. At very light load, the device enters a controlled burst mode operation that, along with the built-in high voltage startup circuit and the low operating current of the device, helps minimize the residual input consumption. Although an auxiliary winding is required in the transformer to correctly perform CV/CC regulation, the chip is able to power itself directly from the rectified mains. This is useful especially during CC regulation, where the flyback voltage generated by the winding drops. 5.1 Application information The device is an off-line LED driver with all-primary sensing, based on quasi-resonant flyback topology, with high power factor capability. In particular, using different application schematic the device is able to provide a compact, efficient and cost-effective LED driver solution with high power factor (PF >0.9 - see application schematic in Figure 1) or with standard power factor (PF > 0.5/0.6 - see application schematic in Figure 2), based on the specific application requirements. Referring to the application schematic in Figure 1, the IC modulates the input current according to the input voltage providing the high power factor capability (PF > 0.9) keeping a good line regulation. This application schematic is intended for a single range input voltage. For wide range application a different reference schematic can be used; refer to AN4346 application note for further details. Moreover, the device is able to work in different modes depending on the LED's driver load condition (see Figure 11): 1. QR mode at heavy load. Quasi-resonant operation lies in synchronizing MOSFET's turn-on to the transformer's demagnetization by detecting the resulting negative-going edge of the voltage across any winding of the transformer. Then the system works close to the boundary between discontinuous (DCM) and continuous conduction (CCM) of the transformer. As a result, the switching frequency is different for different line/load conditions (see the hyperbolic-like portion of the curves in Figure 11). Minimum turn-on losses, low EMI emission and safe behavior in short-circuit are the main benefits of this kind of operation. 2. Valley-skipping mode at medium/ light load. Depending on voltage on COMP pin, the device defines the maximum operating frequency of the converter. As the load is reduced, MOSFET's turn-on does not occur any more on the first valley but on the second one, the third one and so on. In this way the switching frequency is no longer increased (piecewise linear portion in Figure 11). 3. Burst mode with no or very light load. When the load is extremely light or disconnected, the converter enters a controlled on/off operation with constant peak current. Decreasing the load result in frequency reduction, which can go down even to few hundred hertz, thus minimizing all frequency-related losses and making it easier to comply with energy saving regulations or recommendations. Being the peak current very low, no issue of audible noise arises. DS9147 - Rev 6 page 12/32 HVLED815PF Power section and gate driver Figure 11.

The Power MOSFET has a VDSS of 800 V min. and a typical RDS(on) of 6 Ω. The internal gate driver of the Power MOSFET is designed to supply a controlled gate current during both turn-on and turn-off in order to minimize common mode EMI. Under UVLO conditions an internal pull-down circuit holds the gate low in order to ensure that the Power MOSFET cannot be turned on accidentally. 5.3 High voltage startup generator Figure 12 shows the internal schematic of the high voltage start-up generator (HV generator). It includes an 800 V-rated N-channel MOSFET, whose gate is biased through the series of a 12 MΩ resistor and a 14 V Zener diode, with a controlled, temperature compensated current generator connected to its source. The HV generator input is in common with the DRAIN pins, while its output is the supply pin of the device (VCC pin). A mains “UVLO” circuit (separated from the UVLO of the device that sense VCC) keeps the HV generator off if the drain voltage is below VSTART (50 V typical value). DS9147 - Rev 6 page 13/32 HVLED815PF High voltage startup generator Figure 12. High voltage start-up generator–internal schematic DRAIN 14V Vcc_OK 12M Mains UVLO HV_EN IHV VCC CONTROL Icharge GND With reference to the timing diagram of Figure 13, when power is applied to the circuit and the voltage on the input bulk capacitor is high enough, the HV generator is sufficiently biased to start operating, thus it will draw about 5.5 mA (typical) to the VCC capacitor. Most of this current will charge the bypass capacitor connected between the VCC pin and ground and make its voltage rise linearly. As soon as the VCC pin voltage reaches the VCC_ON turn on threshold (13 V typ.) the chip starts operating, the internal Power MOSFET is enabled to switch and the HV generator is cut off by the Vcc_OK signal asserted high. The IC is powered by the energy stored in the VCC capacitor. The chip is able to power itself directly from the rectified mains: when the voltage on the VCC pin falls below VCC_RESTART (10.5 V typ.), during each MOSFET's off-time the HV current generator is turned on and charges the supply capacitor until it reaches the VCC_ON threshold. In this way, the self-supply circuit develops a voltage high enough to sustain the operation of the device. This feature is useful especially during constant current (CC) regulation, when the flyback voltage generated by the auxiliary winding alone may not be able to keep VCC pin above VCC_RESTART.

To do so, the triggering block must be previously armed by a positive-going edge exceeding 100 mV. This feature is used to detect transformer demagnetization for QR operation, where the signal for the DMG input is obtained from the transformer's auxiliary winding used also to supply the IC. Figure 14.

This TBLANK blanking time is dependent on the voltage on COMP pin: it is TBLANK = 30 µs for VCOMP = 0.9 V, and decreases almost linearly down to TBLANK = 6 µs for VCOMP = 1.3 V. DS9147 - Rev 6 page 15/32 HVLED815PF Constant current operation The voltage on the pin is both top and bottom limited by a double clamp, as illustrated in the internal diagram of the DMG block of Figure 14. The upper clamp is typically located at 3.3 V, while the lower clamp is located at -60 mV. The interface between the pin and the auxiliary winding will be a resistor divider. Its resistance ratio as well as the individual resistance values will be properly chosen (see Section 5.6 , Section 5.7 , and Section 5.11 ). Please note that the maximum IDMG sunk/sourced current has to not exceed ±2 mA (AMR) in all the VIN range conditions. No capacitor is allowed between DMG pin and the auxiliary transformer. The switching frequency is top limited below 166 kHz, as the converter's operating frequency tends to increase excessively at light load and high input voltage. A starter block is also used to start up the system, that is, to turn on the MOSFET during converter power-up, when no or a too small signal is available on the DMG pin. The starter frequency is 2 kHz if COMP pin is below burst mode threshold; i.e., 1 V, while it becomes 8 kHz if this voltage exceeds this value. After the first few cycles initiated by the starter, as the voltage developed across the auxiliary winding becomes large enough to arm the DMG circuit, MOSFET's turn-on will start to be locked to transformer demagnetization, hence setting up QR operation. The starter is activated also when the IC is in “Constant Current” regulation and the output voltage is not high enough to allow the DMG triggering. If the demagnetization completes - hence a negative-going edge appears on the DMG pin - after a time exceeding time TBLANK from the previous turn-on, the MOSFET will be turned on again, with some delay to ensure minimum voltage at turn-on. If, instead, the negative- going edge appears before TBLANK has elapsed, it will be ignored and only the first negative-going edge after TBLANK will turn-on the MOSFET. In this way one or more drain ringing cycles will be skipped (““valley-skipping mode”, Figure 15) and the switching frequency will be prevented from exceeding 1/TBLANK. Figure 15. Drain ringing cycle skipping as the load is progressively reduced VDS VDS TON TFW TW VDS t TOSC t TOSC Pin = Pin' t TOSC Pin = Pin'' < Pin' Pin = Pin''' < Pin'' (limit condition) Note: 5.5 When the system operates in valley skipping-mode, uneven switching cycles may be observed under some line/load conditions, due to the fact that the OFF-time of the MOSFET is allowed to change with discrete steps of one ringing cycle, while the OFF-time needed for cycle-by-cycle energy balance may fall in between. Thus one or more longer switching cycles will be compensated by one or more shorter cycles and vice versa. However, this mechanism is absolutely normal and there is no appreciable effect on the performance of the converter or on its output voltage. Constant current operation Figure 16 presents the principle used for controlling the average output current of the flyback converter. The voltage of the auxiliary winding is used by the demagnetization block to generate the control signal for the internal MOSFET switch Q. A resistor R in series with it absorbs a current equal to VILED/R, where VILED is the voltage developed across the capacitor CLED capacitor. The flip-flop's output is high as long as the transformer delivers current on secondary side. This is shown in Figure 17. DS9147 - Rev 6 page 16/32 HVLED815PF Constant current operation Figure 16.

Constant current operation–switching cycle waveforms IPRIM t ISEC t TONSEC Q t ICLED IREF t VILED/R T The capacitor CLED has to be chosen so that its voltage VILED can be considered as a constant. Since it is charged and discharged by currents in the range of some ten µA (IREF = 20 µA typ.) at the switching frequency rate, a capacitance value in the range 4.7–10 nF is suited for switching frequencies in the ten kHz. When high power factor schematic is implemented, a higher capacitor value should be used (i.e., 1–10 µF). The average output current IOUT can be expressed as: DS9147 - Rev 6 page 17/32 HVLED815PF Constant voltage operation I TONSEC IOUT = SEC 2 × T (1) Where ISEC is the secondary peak current, TONSEC is the conduction time of the secondary side, and T is the switching period. Taking into account the transformer ratio N between primary and secondary side, ISEC can also be expressed as a function of the primary peak current IPRIM: As in steady state the average current ICLED: ISEC = N ∙ IPRIM IREF ∙ T − TONSEC + Which can be solved for VILED: V IREF − ILED ∙ TONSEC = 0 R VILED = R × IREF ∙ T T = VCLED ∙ T T ONSEC ONSEC (2) (3) (4) Where VCLED = R * IREF and is internally defined (0.2 V typical–see Table 5). The VILED pin voltage is internally compared with the CS pin voltage (constant current comparator): I VCS = RSENSE ∙ IPRIM = RSENSE ∙ SEC N (5) Combining Eq. (1), Eq. (2), Eq. (4), and Eq. (5), the average output current results: VCLED IOUT = N 2 ∙ RSENSE (6) Eq. (6) shows that the average output current IOUT no longer depends on the input voltage VIN or the output voltage VOUT, nor on transformer inductance values. The external parameters defining the output current are the transformer ratio n and the sense resistor RSENSE. Eq. (6) is valid for both standard and high power factor implementation. 5.6 Constant voltage operation The IC is specifically designed to work in primary regulation and the output voltage is sensed through a voltage partition of the auxiliary winding, just before the auxiliary rectifier diode. Figure 18 shows the internal schematic of the constant voltage mode and the external connections. Due to the parasitic wires resistance, the auxiliary voltage is representative of the output just when the secondary current becomes zero. For this purpose, the signal on DMG pin is sampled-and-held at the end of transformer's demagnetization to get an accurate image of the output voltage and it is compared with the error amplifier internal reference voltage VREF (2.51 V typ. - see Table 5). During the MOSFET's OFF-time the leakage inductance resonates with the drain capacitance and a damped oscillation is superimposed on the reflected voltage. The S/H logic is able to discriminate such oscillations from the real transformer's demagnetization. When the DMG logic detects the transformer's demagnetization, the sampling process stops, the information is frozen and compared with the error amplifier internal reference. The internal error amplifier is a transconductance type and delivers an output current proportional to the voltage unbalance of the two outputs: the output generates the control voltage that is compared with the voltage across the sense resistor, thus modulating the cycle-by-cycle peak drain current. The COMP pin is used for the frequency compensation: usually, an RC network, which stabilizes the overall voltage control loop, is connected between this pin and ground. As a result, the output voltage VOUT at zero-load (i.e., no LED on the LED driver output) can be selected through the RFB resistor in according to the following equation: RFB = RDMG ∙ VREF NAUX − VREF NSEC ∙ VOUT (7) Where NAUX and NSEC are the auxiliary and secondary turn numbers, respectively. The RDMG resistor value can be defined depending on the application parameters (see Section 5.7 ). DS9147 - Rev 6 page 18/32 HVLED815PF Voltage feedforward block Figure 18. Voltage control principle–internal schematic S/H EA + + 2.5V Rf b Aux To PWM Logic - DMG Rdmg DEMAG LOGIC CV From CS pin COMP R C 5.7 Voltage feedforward block The current control structure uses the VCLED voltage to define the output current, according to Eq. (6) in Section 5.5 . Actually, the constant current comparator will be affected by an internal propagation delay TD, which will switch off the MOSFET with a peak current than higher the foreseen value. This current overshoot will be equal to: ∆ IPRIM = VIN ∙ TD LP (8) The previous terms introduce a small error on the calculated average output current set- point, depending on the input voltage. The HVLED815PF device implements a line feedforward function, which solves the issue by introducing an input voltage dependent offset on the current sense signal, in order to adjust the cycle-by-cycle current limitation. The internal schematic is shown in the following figure. Figure 19. Feedforward compensation–internal schematic DRAIN DMG Feedforward Logic . Rfb Aux IFF CC Block - Rdmg PWM LOGIC CC + Rff CS SOURCE Rsense During MOSFET's ON-time the current sourced from DMG pin is mirrored inside the ‘Feedforward Logic’ block in order to provide a feedforward current, IFF. Such ‘feedforward current’ is proportional to the input voltage according to the following equation: DS9147 - Rev 6 page 19/32 HVLED815PF Burst mode operation at no load or very light load N VIN ∙ AUX VIN NPRIM IFF = = m∙R Rdmg dmg (9) Where m is the primary-to-auxiliary turns ratio. According to the schematic in Figure 19, the voltage on the non-inverting comparator will be: V − = RSENSE ∙ ID + IFF ∙ RFF ∙ RSENSE (10) The offset introduced by feedforward compensation will be: VIN VOFFSET = R + RSENSE m ∙ Rdmg ∙ FF (11) As RFF >> RSENSE, the previous one can be simplified as: VIN VOFFSET = m ∙ Rdmg ∙ RFF (12) This offset is proportional to VIN and it is used to compensate the current overshoot, according to the following equation: VIN ∙ TD V ∙ RSENSE = m ∙ RIN ∙R LP dmg FF (13) Finally, the RDMG resistor can be calculated as follows: N LP ∙ RFF Rdmg = AUX ∙ NPRIM TD ∙ RSENSE (14) In this case the peak drain current does not depend on input voltage anymore, and as a consequence the average output current IOUT does not depend on the VIN input voltage. When high power factor is implemented (see Section 5.11 ), the feedforward current has to be minimized because the line regulation is assured by the external offset circuitry (see Figure 1). The maximum value is limited by the minimum IDMG internal current needed to guarantee the correct functionality of the internal circuitry: 5.8 Vin_min ac ∙ 2 N RdmgMAX = N AUX ∙ 100μA PRIM (15) Burst mode operation at no load or very light load When the voltage at the COMP pin falls 65 mV is below the internally fixed threshold VCOMPBM, the IC is disabled with the MOSFET kept in OFF state and its consumption reduced at a lower value to minimize VCC capacitor discharge. In this condition the converter operates in burst mode (one pulse train every TSTART = 500 µs), with minimum energy transfer. As a result of the energy delivery stop, the output voltage decreases: after 500 µs the controller switches on the MOSFET again and the sampled voltage on the DMG pin is compared with the internal reference VREF. If the voltage on the EA output, as a result of the comparison, exceeds the VCOMPL threshold, the device restarts switching, otherwise it stays OFF for another 500 µs period. In this way, the converter will work in burst mode with a nearly constant peak current defined by the internal disable level. A load decrease will then cause a frequency reduction, which can go down even to few hundred hertz, thus minimizing all frequency-related losses and making it easier to comply with energy saving regulations. This kind of operation, shown in the timing diagrams of Figure 20along with the others previously described, is noise-free since the peak current is low.

Load-dependent operating modes–timing diagrams COMP 50 mV hysteresis (Hys) VCOMPL IDS t Normal-mode 5.9 Burst-mode Normal-mode t Soft-start and starter block The soft-start feature is automatically implemented by the constant current block, as the primary peak current will be limited from the voltage on the CLED capacitor. During the startup, as the output voltage is zero, the IC will start in constant current (CC) mode with no high peak current operations. In this way the voltage on the output capacitor will increase slowly and the soft-start feature will be ensured. Actually, the CLED value is not important to define the soft-start time, as its duration depends on others circuit parameters, like transformer ratio, sense resistor, output capacitors and load. The user will define the best appropriate value by experiments. 5.10 Hiccup mode OCP The device is also protected against short-circuit of the secondary rectifier, short-circuit on the secondary winding or a hard-saturated flyback transformer. An internal comparator monitors continuously the voltage on CS pin and activates a protection circuitry if this voltage exceeds an internally fixed threshold VCSdis (1 V typ., see Table 5). To distinguish an actual malfunction from a disturbance (e.g., induced during ESD tests), the first time the comparator is tripped, the protection circuit enters a “warning state”. If in the subsequent switching cycle the comparator is not tripped, a temporary disturbance is assumed and the protection logic will be reset in its idle state; if the comparator will be tripped again a real malfunction is assumed and the device will be stopped. This condition is latched as long as the device is supplied. While it is disabled, however, no energy is coming from the self-supply circuit; hence the voltage on the VCC capacitor will decay and cross the UVLO threshold after some time, which clears the latch. The internal start-up generator is still off, then the VCC voltage still needs to go below its restart voltage before the VCC capacitor is charged again and the device restarted. Ultimately, this will result in a low-frequency intermittent operation (hiccup mode operation), with very low stress on the power circuit.

This application schematic is intended for a single range input voltage. For wide range application a different reference schematic can be used; refer to AN4346 application note for further details. Through the RPF resistor a contribution proportional to the input voltage is added on the CS pin: as a consequence, the input current is proportional to the input voltage during the line period, implementing a high power factor correction. The contribution proportional to the input voltage is generated using the auxiliary winding, as a consequence a diode in series to the RPF resistor is needed. Through the ROS resistor a positive contribution proportional to the average value of the input voltage is added on the CS pin in order to keep a good line regulation. The voltage contribution proportional to the average value of the input voltage is generated through the low pass filter RA/RB resistor and COS capacitor. A diode in series to the RA/RB resistor is suggested to avoid the discharge of COS capacitor in any condition. The R1 resistor between CS and SOURCE pin is needed to add on the CS pin also the contribution proportional the output current trough the RSENSE resistor.

Rf b Aux IFF CC Block1 - Rdmg PWM LOGIC2 CC + Rf f CS RPF SOURCE R1 ROS VIN (after bridge diode) RA Rsense RB COS The components selection flow starts from the RDMG resistor: this resistor has to be selected in order to minimize the internal feedforward effect. The maximum selectable value is limited by the minimum internal current circuitry IDMG needed to guarantee the correct functionality of the internal circuitry: N V ∙ 2 RdmgMAX = AUX ∙ IN_MIN NPRIM 100μA (16) where NAUX and NPRIM are the auxiliary and primary turn numbers, respectively, and VIN_MIN is the minimum rms input voltage of the application (i.e., 88 V for 110 Vac or 175 V for 230 Vac range). The RFB resistor defines the VOUT output voltage value in the open circuit condition (no-load condition, i.e., no LED on the output of LED driver) and it can be selected using the following relationship: RFB = RDMG ∙ VREF NAUX − VREF NSEC ∙ VOUT (17) where NAUX and NSEC are the auxiliary and secondary turn's number respectively and VREF is the internal reference voltage (VREF = 2.51 V typ., see Table 5). The R1 resistor is typically selected in the range of 500 Ω - 1.5 kΩ in order to minimize the internal feedforward effect and to minimize the power dissipation on the RA/RB resistor offset circuitry. The RA, RB, ROS resistors are selected to add a positive offset on CS pin in order to keep a good line regulation over the input voltage range and cab be selected using the following equation: ROS = R1 ∙ VOS_TYP VCLED ∙ NSEC ∙ 2 ∙ POUT ∙ LP ∙ FSW − 1 VOUT ∙ NPRIM (18) Where VOS_TYP is the desired voltage across COS capacitor applying the VIN_TYP typical input voltage (i.e., VIN_TYP = 220 V for 176/264 Vac input range); FSW is the switching frequency and can be estimated using the following equation, where fT and fR are the transition and resonant frequency respectively: FSW = DS9147 - Rev 6 2 ∙ fT fT fT 1+ + 1+2∙ fR fR (19) page 23/32 HVLED815PF Layout recommendations fT = 1 2 POUT NSEC 1 2 ∙ η ∙ LP ∙ + VIN_TYP ∙ 2 VOUT ∙ NPRIM 1 fR = 2 ∙ π ∙ LP ∙ CD (20) (21) where CD is the total equivalent capacitor afferent at the drain node. Based on the desired voltage across the COS capacitor and calculated ROS resistor, then the sum of RA and RB can then calculated as a result of partitioning divider: RA + RB = ROS ∙ 2 −V VIN_TYP ∙ 2 ∙ π OS_TYP VOS_TYP (22) Using the previous ROS resistor value the RPF resistor can be estimated using the following equation: RPF = N VIN_TYP ∙ 2 ∙ N AUX PRIM NAUX VIN_TYP ∙ 2 ∙ N ∙ ROS + VOS_TYP ∙ RDMG PRIM ∙ ROS ∙ RDMG (23) Finally, the current sense resistor RSENSE can be estimated in order to select the desired average output current value: N V RSENSE = PRIM ∙ 1 ∙ CLED NSEC 2 IOUT (24) Where VCLED is internally defined (0.2 V typ., see Table 5). 5.11.1 System design tips Starting from the previous estimated components value, further fine-tuning on the real LED driver board could be necessary and it can be easily done considering that: 5.12 • Decreasing/increasing the RPF resistor value, the power factor effect increases/decreases. • Decreasing/increasing the ROS resistor value, the line regulation effect increases/decreases. • Decreasing/increasing the ROS resistor value, the RA + RB resistors value should be increased/decreased to keep the desired voltage across the COS capacitor (Eq. (22)). • Decreasing/increasing the RSENSE resistor value the average output current increases/decreases (Eq. (24)). Layout recommendations A proper printed circuit board layout is essential for correct operation of any switch-mode converter, and this is true for the HVLED815PF device as well. Careful component placing, correct traces routing, appropriate traces widths and compliance with isolation distances are the major issues. In particular: • • • • • DS9147 - Rev 6 Current sense resistor (RSENSE) should be connected as close as possible to the SOURCE pin, maintaining the trace for the GND as short as possible. Resistor connected on CS pin (ROS, RPF, R1) should be connected as close as possible to the pin. Compensation network (RCOMP, CCOMP) should be connected as close as possible to the COMP pin, maintaining the trace for the GND as short as possible. Signal ground should be routed separately from power ground, as well from the sense resistor trace. DMG partition resistors (RDMG, RFB) should be connected as close as possible to the DMG pin, minimizing the equivalent parasitic capacitor on DMG pin. page 24/32 HVLED815PF Layout recommendations Figure 23.
