Advanced features are embedded to control
either the output voltage or output current
precisely and reliably using a reduced number of
components, mainly passive. Startup and lightload conditions are managed by dedicated
operating schemes to improve the quality of
output variable regulation in the final application.
Abnormal conditions such as open circuit, output
short-circuit, input overvoltage/undervoltage, and
circuit failures such as open loop and overcurrent
of the main switch are effectively controlled.

High voltage start-up and input voltage detection.
The pin, able to withstand 800 V, is to be tied to the input voltage using a low value resistor
(1 k typ.). It embeds the internal start-up unit that charges the capacitor connected between the
VCC pin and GND pin during the start-up and low consumption.
During the operational mode, the voltage at this pin is used to both measure the input voltage and
detect input overvoltages.

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.
4
Input for loop regulation.
The pin is intended to be directly driven by the phototransistor (emitter-grounded) of an optocoupler
and / or 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 and disable conditions are also related to the voltage applied to this pin.

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.
6
Multiple function pin able to detect the zero current instant, to sense the output voltage for 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.: start-up).
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.

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

Operating modes
The HVLED001 QR flyback controller is able to operate either as a single stage high power
factor (HPF) flyback controller or as a DC/DC flyback controller in dual stages topologies. Its
enhanced features are mainly intended to simplify the design and the management of
constant current applications (LED drivers).
Application schematics of the two main topologies are reported in Figure 5 and Figure 6.

Start-up mode
r

This state is entered to begin the switching activity (during application's turn on or exiting

The active mode is exited when abnormal conditions are present or the VCC drops below the
VCC,su threshold. The HVSU is inactive during the active mode.
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.
DocID027333 Rev 1
HVLED001
7.1.4
Application information
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 start-up
unit (HVSU) delivering Icharge to the output capacitor.
Note:
Important: HVSU charges VCC so any other external voltage (including auxiliary winding)
must be decoupled using a 1N4148 diode.
7.1.5
Soft-start
)
s

The soft-start phase is entered after the start-up and every time the IC exits from low
consumption mode. This phase lasts until the voltage at the CTRL pin reaches the “end of
soft-start” level (Veoss).
c

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.

MOSFET's source and compared with a threshold equal to:
Equation 1

V HVSU pk
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 MOSFET's turn on.

Feedback input
The FB pin is intended to be connected directly to the collector of the optocoupler that
provides the galvanic insulation to the control loop as well as to act as compensation output
for the primary side control (PSR) loop of the output voltage (see Section 7.2.4). A suitable
RC network can be placed between FB and ground to compensate the control loop.

7.2.3
The pin embeds protection to prevent from the operation with the failed optocoupler and can
be pulled to ground to interrupt the switching activity (stop mode).
Zero current detection
The zero level detection is performed by a trigger logic that, once armed by a rising voltage,
is sensitive to falling edges. The advanced ZCD logic is able to discriminate between the
normal operation, output short-circuit or start-up condition.
An internal blanking time prevents any triggering signal to activate the MOSFET's 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 0.3 V (typ.).

The TOFF pin is intended to select the blanking time duration. If the pin is left unconnected

The ZCD pin is also is 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: in this case the output voltage is obtained using the following

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 the secondary side error amplifier when an optocoupler is
used or by the internal error amplifier if the PSR operation is on.

IC supply management
The IC's voltage supply is managed by the UVLO circuitry together with the high voltage
start-up unit and reference generators. These logics define also supply currents during
different operating conditions.

7.4.1
Application information
VCC supply management
The IC is designed to operate with a range of supply voltage to ensure an 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 exhibits very low supply currents in
order to meet 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.

The overall structure is off until input voltage reaches the VHVSU, start threshold, after that

VCC pin.

Autorestart timer (ART)
The autorestart timer unit is responsible for the generation of the protection's intervals and
of the restart times after the low consumption mode. A summary of all possible combination
of times is described in each protection paragraph.
7.6
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.
7.6.1
)
s
t(
Overcurrent protection (OCP)
To prevent any damage to active components in case of inductor's saturation the MOSFET
is immediately turned off by the fast OCP protection. At this occurrence the IC temporarily
enters the stop state for a time equal to TOCP.
7.6.2
c
u
d
Input overvoltage protection (I-OVP)
e
t
le
o
r
P
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 damage during the off-state when
the drain voltage rises to Vin plus reflected voltage, eventually above the maximum absolute
rating of the MOSFET itself.
o
s
b
O
)
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 start-up 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 start-up procedure.
s
(
t
c
7.6.3
u
d
o
r
P
e
Brownout protection (BO)
The current sourced by the ZCD pin's negative clamp during 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.
t
e
l
o
s
b
O
7.6.4
When the protection is triggered, the ART performs the autorelaoding procedure after Trec.
The brownout protection is active during the active mode, but blanked during the soft-start.
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 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.

Application information
Disable and monitor feature
Several disabling means are available to externally disable the IC:
1.
Driving FB pin low (FB_DIS): this occurrence immediately stops the switching activity
until the FB voltage returns above the threshold.
2.
Driving CTRL pin low (CTRL_DIS): this occurrence immediately puts the device in
the low consumption mode; when the CTLR pin is left free, the internal biasing mean
pulls-up the voltage above the threshold entering the soft-start procedure.
3.
Driving 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 HVLED001 device enters low consumption, an internal pull-down discharges
the soft-start capacitor and resets the soft-start time.
