ST’s innovative high voltage technology allows
direct connection of the HVLED001A device to
the input voltage to start up the device and to
monitor the input voltage, without the need for
external components.
The device embeds advanced features to control
either the output voltage or the output current
precisely and reliably using a reduced number of
mainly passive components. Startup and light
load conditions are managed by dedicated
operating schemes to improve the quality of the
regulation of the output variable in the final
application. Abnormal conditions such as open
circuit, output short-circuit, input overvoltage/
undervoltage and circuit failures like open loop
and overcurrent of the main switch are effectively
controlled.
A smart auto-recover timer (ART) function is builtin to guarantee automatic application recovery,
without loss of reliability.

Description
HVSU
1
High voltage startup and input voltage detection.
The pin, able to withstand 800 V, is intended to be tied to the input voltage using a low value resistor
(1 k typ.) . It embeds the internal startup unit that charges the capacitor connected between the
VCC pin and GND pin during the startup and low consumption.
During the operational mode, the voltage at this pin is used to both - measure the input voltage and
detect input overvoltages.
N.C.
2
Not connected pin.
TOFF
3
A blanking time for zero voltage detection can be set applying a voltage to this pin. A minimum
blanking time is obtained leaving the pin unconnected.
FB
4
Input for loop regulation.
The pin is intended to be directly driven by the phototransistor (emitter-grounded) of an optocoupler
and/or to be connected to the compensation network related to the output voltage primary side
regulation loop.
An upper threshold VOFP detects a failure of the optocoupler.
The burst mode is also related to the voltage applied to this pin.
CTRL
5
This pin is used to disable the IC and generate the soft-start ramp.
External active circuitry can be used to turn-off the application.
ZCD
6
Multiple function pin able to detect the zero current instant, to sense the output voltage for the
primary side regulation and the input voltage for brownout detection. A negative-going edge triggers
the MOSFET's turn-on, while an internal starter unit is active to generate the triggering signal when
not externally available (e.g.: startup).
CS
7
Input to the current sense comparator for the power regulation. A second level overcurrent (OCP)
threshold detects abnormal currents (e.g.: due to transformer's saturation) and, on this occurrence,
activates the second level overcurrent protection procedure.
GND
8
Reference pin.

Description
Gate driver output. The output stage is able to drive the power MOSFET's and IGBT's gate.
Supply voltage of the IC.
Internal UVLO logic prevents the operation at voltages that are insufficient for the efficient gate
driving or signal processing. Both a bulk capacitor (typically around 10 µF) and a high frequency
10 filter capacitor (100 nF ceramic, mounted as close as possible to the device) are connected between
this pin and GND. An internal clamp structure prevents accidental low energy spikes damaging the
device. An external clamping device should be used to avoid the voltage applied to the VCC pin to
overcome the AMR.

The HVLED001A has four main operating modes: the startup mode, active mode, stop
mode and low consumption mode.

DocID029000 Rev 3
HVLED001A
7.1.1
Application information
Startup mode
This state is entered to begin the switching activity (during application's turn-on or exiting
from the low consumption state). The HVSU is involved into the mechanism of VCC
charging; all other peripherals, except the UVLO and logic supply, are turned off to minimize
the startup time.
During this state the CTRL pin is internally pulled to ground.

Application information
7.1.2
HVLED001A
Active mode
It is the normal operational mode. During this state the external MOSFET is driven
accordingly to signals coming from the application in order to regulate the desired output
parameter in the closed loop (peak current control method).
The active mode is exited when abnormal conditions are present or VCC drops below the
Vcc,su threshold. The HVSU is inactive during the active mode.
7.1.3
Stop mode
This state is intended to stop the switching activity without turning off the entire function set,
to quickly restart when abnormal or disabling conditions end. During this state the power
consumption is not minimized and the soft-start procedure is not enabled.
7.1.4
Low consumption mode
This state is intended to stop the switching activity reducing the power consumption to
a minimum level. The soft-start procedure is set to be performed when abnormal or
disabling condition is removed.
During this state the VCC is kept between VCC,su and VCC,on by the high voltage startup
unit (HVSU) delivering Icharge to the output capacitor.
Note:
IMPORTANT: The HVSU charges the VCC so any other external voltage (including
auxiliary winding) must be decoupled using a diode (e.g.: 1N4148).
7.1.5
Soft-start
The soft-start phase is entered after the startup and every time the IC exits from the low
consumption mode. This phase lasts until the voltage at the CTRL pin reaches the “end of
soft-start” level (Veoss).
The current sense maximum limit is derived from this voltage, therefore the charging time of
a capacitor placed between the CTRL pin and GND defines the soft-start time.
During this phase some protections [optocoupler failure protection (OFP), brownout (BO)
and analog disable (AN_DIS)] are ignored.

Application information
Control loop
The control loop is based on the current mode quasi resonant flyback control scheme and is
therefore performed by turning off the MOSFET when the peak of its source current reaches
the threshold set by the control loop, and by turning on the MOSFET in correspondence of
the resonant valley following the demagnetization of the transformer or inductor.
A detail of the block involved into this scheme is shown in Figure 8.

7.2.1
Current sense input
The peak of the primary current is read across a shunt resistor placed between the
MOSFET's source and compared with a threshold equal to:
Equation 1
Where the term VHVSU,pk is the maximum value of the HVSU voltage within around 20 ms
and is used to compensate the dependency on the input voltage of the open loop gain
transfer function. The gain kp collects all the proportional terms between the HVSU voltage
and CS threshold.
A leading edge blanking time (LEB) is applied after the MOSFET's turn-on.
The VCS signal is upper limited to a value that depends on the CTRL voltage and is lower
limited to 55 mV.
A second level OCP threshold is present to temporarily stop the switching activity in case of
inductor saturation.

Application information
7.2.2
HVLED001A
Feedback input
The FB pin is intended to be connected to the compensation network for the primary side
control (PSR) loop of the output voltage (see Section 7.2.4) as well as to be connected
directly to the collector of the optocoupler that provides the galvanic insulation to the
secondary side regulation control loop.
In case of constant output voltage applications, the PSR loop can be used to regulate the
output voltage saving the secondary side error amplifier.
The FB voltage is also used as an input parameter for the burst mode operation described in
Section 7.2.5.
The pin embeds a protection to prevent from the operation with a failed optocoupler.
7.2.3
Zero current detection
The zero level detection is performed by a trigger logic that, once armed (if a ZCD voltage is
higher than VZCD,arm after Tblank,min starting from GD turn-off instant), is sensitive to
falling edges. The advanced ZCD logic is able to discriminate between the normal
operation, output short-circuit or startup condition.
An internal blanking time prevents any triggering signal to activate the MOSFETs at the very
beginning of the off-time, where spurious resonances could be present. As a result, the first
falling edge occurring after the blanking time turns on the MOSFET.
To ensure a proper operation, the transformer has to be designed to guarantee that the
inductor's demagnetization time is longer than TBLANK (at VTOFF > VTOFF,fix) when the
VCS value (Equation 1) is higher than 0.7 V (typ.).
The TOFF pin is intended to select the blanking time duration. If the pin is left unconnected
a fixed blanking time is provided.
The TBLANK value depends on the TOFF voltage (Figure 9).
An internal starter provides the triggering signal whenever a valid arming signal is not
detected.
The ZCD pin embeds a negative clamp to limit the negative-going current.

Primary side regulation feature
The ZCD pin is also used as input of the PSR error amplifier (E/A). The reference voltage of
this loop is internally fixed to VREF,PSR and applied to the non-inverting input of the E/A.
The output of such error amplifier is connected to the FB pin where the relevant
compensation network has to be connected.
In a flyback or buck-boost topology the output voltage can be read from the primary side
using an auxiliary winding of the power magnetic: in this case the output voltage is obtained
using Equation 2:
Equation 2
The internal small signal model of the PSR E/A is obtained by considering the voltage gain
(GV = 73 dB) and the gain bandwidth product (GBWP = 1 MHz) and is illustrated in
Figure 10:

".
7.2.5
Burst mode operation
As soon as the FB pin drops below Vbm the burst mode operating mode is entered. The
switching activity is temporarily interrupted until the FB voltage returns above the Vbm
value. An internal hysteresis improves the noise rejection of this feature. The FB biasing
current follows the same rules as in the normal operation; therefore the burst mode
operation is either defined by a secondary side error amplifier when an optocoupler is used
or by the internal error amplifier if the PSR operation is on.
During the burst mode, the output voltage value is refreshed every millisecond by means of
the generation of four switching pulses separated by the ZCD voltage's falling edge. The
TBLANK,min interval is also present between each pulse.
A minimum power delivery is associated with the burst mode. A small preloading device
(resistor or clamping Zener) should be placed on the output port to prevent the output
voltage runaway when no load is connected to the output port.

Application information
Gate driver
The output stage, connected to VCC potential and capable of the 300 mA source and
600 mA sink current, is suitable to drive high current MOSFETs. The resulting managed
power can be greater than 150 W.
7.3
IC supply management
The IC's voltage supply is managed by the UVLO circuitry together with the high voltage
startup unit and reference generators. These logics define also supply currents during
different operating conditions.
7.3.1
VCC supply management
The IC is designed to operate with a range of supply voltage to ensure optimum gate
driving. An active limiting device is embedded to prevent low energy fluctuations to bring the
VCC voltage above the technological constraints.
Both the active mode and the low consumption mode exhibit very low supply currents in
order to meet the energy saving regulation.
The VCC pin can be driven independently from the HVSU pin's connection, for example
when auxiliary supply voltage is present. In this case the HVSU pin will be used solely to
monitor input voltage.
A bulk capacitor, having a capacitance of around 10 µF, followed by a ceramic capacitor,
having a typical capacitance of 100 nF and connected very tight to the VCC pin, are
necessary to properly sustain the VCC voltage during all operating phases.

HVLED001A
High voltage startup
The high voltage startup (HVSU) circuitry is primarily intended to provide the startup current
to the VCC pin and maintain the IC responsive during low consumption modes.
This structure is able to sustain at least 800 V to avoid any damage in case of a surge or
burst on the stage's input.
The overall structure is off until input voltage reaches the VHVSU,start threshold, after that it
sources a minimum current (Icharge,su) to charge the VCC pin up to the Vcc,su threshold.
This condition prevents the IC from severe damages in case of the short-circuit on the VCC
pin.
At this VCC voltage a higher current (Icharge) is provided to the VCC to reach the VCC,on
threshold. At this occurrence the active mode is invoked and the HVSU is turned off.
During other active mode's phases and the stop mode the HVSU is off.
If the low consumption mode is entered, the HVSU unit is turned on.
Table 7 summarizes the HVSU behavior in all IC conditions.

Auto-restart timer (ART)

the restart times after the low consumption mode. A summary of all possible combinations
of times is described in Section 7.5.

Application information
Protections
A comprehensive set of protections is embedded to ensure a high level of reliability of the
final application using a limited number of components.
7.5.1
Overcurrent protection (OCP)
To prevent any damage to active components in case of inductor's saturation the MOSFET
is immediately turned off by fast OCP protection. At this occurrence the IC temporarily
enters the stop state for a time equal to TOCP.
7.5.2
Input overvoltage protection (I-OVP)
Disturbances of the input voltage like surges or bursts may increase the voltage applied to
the transformer primary side. Worst, an excessive input voltage could be applied to the
application. These occurrences may result into MOSFET’s damages during the off state
when the drain voltage rises to Vin plus reflected voltage, eventually above the maximum
absolute rating of the MOSFET itself.
An input voltage higher than VSurge, measured by HVSU structure, immediately stops the
IC. If the extra voltage diminishes before Tsurge the device restarts immediately without
activating the startup procedure, otherwise the low consumption mode is entered until the
input voltage returns below the safety threshold. An internal hysteresis improves the noise
rejection of this feature. In the latter case the ART activates the startup procedure.
7.5.3
Brownout protection (BO)
The current sourced by the ZCD pin's negative clamp during the on time is compared to
a minimum value to determine whether the input voltage is lower than the input range
specification (brownout protection). If a value lower than IBO for a time longer than TBO,
managed by the ART, is detected the IC is stopped for Trec and then restarted.
When the protection is triggered, the ART performs the autoreloading procedure after Trec.
The brownout protection is active during the active mode, but blanked during the soft-start.
7.5.4
Optocoupler failure protection (OFP)
This protection detects either the absence of the optocoupler control (no pull-down) or the
overload condition for more than a time equal to TOFP and switches off the application
putting the device in the low consumption mode. This prevents the output power from a
rising above excessive values due to the loss of control.
The ART manages the TOFP interval and performs the auto-reloading procedure after Trec.
The OFP is active during the active mode, but blanked during the soft-start.
7.5.5
Output overvoltage protection (oOVP)
In case of the ZCD sampled voltage is well above the VREF,PSR voltage (around 3 V) OTA
provides an extra sink current ( 2 mA typ.) to the FB pin to speed up the energy transfer
reduction and limiting the output voltage overshooting.

HVLED001A
Disable and monitor feature
Several disabling means are available to externally disable the IC:
1.
Driving the CTRL pin low (CTRL_DIS): this occurrence immediately puts the device
in the low consumption mode; when the CTRL pin is left free, the internal biasing mean
pulls up the voltage above the threshold entering the soft-start procedure.
2.
Driving the CTRL pin high (AN_DIS): a CTRL voltage higher than the threshold for
a time longer than Tdis causes the device to enter the low consumption mode. The
ART timer performs an auto recover procedure after Trec.
Anytime the HVLED001A device enters low consumption an internal pull-down discharges
the soft-start capacitor and resets the soft-start time.
