ST’s commitment to energy saving
While technological progress has improved the quality of our lives, it has significantly increased global energy
consumption, from 7 billion toe (tonne of oil equivalent) in 1980 to 12 billion toe in 2007*. With increasing levels
of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and the dwindling of traditional energy resources, a more energy-efficient
approach is required.
STMicroelectronics is committed to developing products and technologies that enable efficient power supply, from
generation to consumption, across all microelectronics applications. STMicroelectronics follows two complementary
approaches - reduction of energy consumption in the chip itself, and new ways to further improve energy efficiency in
the end applications, such as lighting.
Lighting represents 15% of global electrical energy consumption, mainly in buildings and exterior applications. More
efficient lighting thus offers potentially large savings in energy and is closely related to the performances of its control
electronics.
A leading provider of complete lighting solutions with smart management and high protection levels, STMicroelectronics
supports energy-efficient electronic ballasts with a large portfolio of products (power discrete semiconductors,
application-specific ICs and microcontrollers). These ICs combine all the functions required to generate more light
from less energy, while ensuring longer lifetime for the lamps and full compliance with safety and power consumption
regulations.
Light emitting diodes (LEDs), thanks to their numerous advantages, are set to become a new standard source of
illumination for the 21st century.

LEDs are essentially PN junction semiconductor diodes that emit a monochromatic (single color) light when operated
in a forward biased direction. The basic structure of a LED consists of the die or light emitting semiconductor material,
a lead frame where the die is actually placed, and the encapsulation epoxy which surrounds and protects the die. The
first commercially usable LEDs were developed in the 1960’s, but they have only recently reached significant levels of
luminous efficiency.

LEDs offer longer lifetimes (up to 100,000 hours), a wide color spectrum, small size and greater design flexibility.
Moreover, LEDs increase safety through their low-voltage power supplies, and enhance user comfort as they turn on
instantly and operate silently. LEDs are environment friendly because they have no gas inside, no UV and little infrared
emission.
Most importantly, LEDs can save a lot of energy compared with standard lighting sources. It has been estimated that
the replacement of 5% of all incandescent bulbs in the world (12.5 billion/year) with LED-based lighting would allow the
saving of 60 TWh of electricity equivalent to 23.4 Gtonne of CO2 a year.
STMicroelectronics offers a large portfolio of compact and efficient LED driver solutions, fully addressing the lighting
market and featuring all the functions needed to ensure greater power saving.

The L597x is a step-down monolithic power switching regulator capable of delivering
more than 2 A DC current to the load depending on the application conditions. The
output voltage can be set from 1.235 V to 35 V.
The device uses an internal P-channel D-MOSFET (with a typical RDS(on) of 250 mΩ)
as switching element to minimize the size of the external components. An internal
oscillator fixes the switching frequency at 250 kHz.
Having a minimum input voltage of 4.4 V only, it is particularly suitable for 5 V buses,
available in all computer related applications.
Pulse-by-pulse current limit with the internal frequency modulation offers an effective
constant-current short-circuit protection.

switches are driven on/off 180° out-of-phase for exactly the same time. Output
voltage regulation is obtained by modulating the operating frequency. A fixed deadtime inserted between the turn-off of one switch and the turn-on of the other one
guarantees soft-switching and enables high-frequency operation.

L6565
The L6565 is a current-mode primary controller IC, specifically designed to build offline
quasi-resonant ZVS (zero voltage switching at switch turn-on) flyback converters.
Quasi-resonant operation is achieved by means of a transformer demagnetization
sensing input that triggers the switch’s turn-on. The converter’s power-capability
variations with the mains voltage are compensated by line voltage feedforward. At light
load, the device features a special function that automatically lowers the operating
frequency while maintaining the operation as close to ZVS as possible. In addition to
very low start-up and quiescent currents, this feature helps keep the consumption from
the mains low at light load to be Blue Angel and Energy Star compliant.
