8.1 Startup Operation

Figure 8-1 shows the VCC pin peripheral circuit. The VCC pin is the power supply input for control circuit from the external power supply. When the VCC pin voltage increases to the Operation Start Voltage , VCC(ON) = 9.6 V, the control circuit starts operation. After that, when the PWM pin voltage exceeds the PWM Pin ON Threshold Voltage, V PWM(ON) of 1.5 V (less than absolute maximum voltage of 5 V), the COMP Pin Charge Current at Startup, I COMP(S) = −11 µA, flows from the COMP pin. This charge current flows to capacitors at the COMP pin. When the COMP pin voltage increases to the COMP Pin Voltage at Oscillation Start, V COMP(ON) = 0.50 V or more, the control circuit starts switching operation. As shown in Figure 8-2, when the VCC pin voltage decreases to the Operation Stop Voltage, VCC(OFF) = 9.1 V, the control circuit stops operation, by the UVLO (Undervoltage Lockout) circuit, and reverts to the state before startup.

Figure 8-3 shows the operation waveform with the PWM dimming signal at startup.

During this period, they are charged by the COMP Pin Source Current, I COMP(SRC) = –57 µA, when the PWM pin voltage is 1.5 V or more. Thus, the COMP pin voltage increases immediately. When the IFB pin voltage increases to V IFB(CMP1.VR) or more, the COMP pin source current is controlled according to the feedback amount, and the output current is controlled to be constant. The on-duty gradually becomes wide according to the increase of the COMP pin voltage, and the output power increases (Soft start operation). Thus, power stresses on components are reduced. When the VCC pin voltage decreases to the operation stop voltage or less, or the Auto Restart operation (see the Section 8.5 Protection Function) after protection is achieved, then the control circuit stops switching operation, and capacitors at the COMP pin are discharged by the COMP Pin Reset Current, ICOMP(R) = 360 µA, simultaneously. The soft start operation is achieved at restart. The IC is operated by Auto Restart 1 at startup

VIFB(COMP.VR) is determined by the VREF pin voltage, as shown in Figure 8-4. When VREF pin voltage is 1V, the value of VIFB(COMP.VR) becomes 0.60 V.

8.2 Constant Current Control Operation

Figure 8-5 shows the IFB pin peripheral circuit. When Q2 turns on, the LED output current, I OUT(CC), is detected by the current detection resistor, R11. The IC compares the IFB pin voltage with the VREF pin voltage by the internal error amplifier, and controls the IFB pin voltage so that it gets close to the VREF pin voltage. The reference voltage at the VREF pin is the divided voltage of the REG pin voltage, V REG = 5 V, by R20 and R21, and thus this voltage can be externally adjusted. The setting current, I OUT(CC), of the LED_OUT can be calculated as follows. SEN REF )CC(OUT R VI  (8-1) where: VREF is the VREF pin voltage. The value is recommended to be 0.5 V to 2.0 V.

8.3 PWM Dimming Function

Figure 8-6 shows the peripheral circuit of P WM pin and SW pin. The PWM pin is used for the PWM dimming signal input. The SW pin drives the gate of external MOSFET, Q2. The SW pin voltage is turned on / off by PWM signal, and thus the dimming of LED is controlled by PWM signal input. As shown in Figure 8-7, when the PWM pin voltage becomes the PWM Pin ON Threshold Voltage, VPWM(ON) = 1.5 V or more, the SW pin voltage becomes VCC. When the PWM pin voltage becomes the PWM Pin OFF Threshold Voltage, V PWM(OFF) = 1 .0 V or less, the SW pin voltage becomes 0.1 V or less. The PWM pin has the absolute maximum voltage of −0.3 V to 5.0 V, and the input impedance, R PWM, of 200 k Ω. The PWM dimming signal should meet these specifications and threshold voltages of VPWM(ON) and VPWM(OFF). SW Q2 R11 DrivePWM OSC Main Logic

  • Peripheral components of Q1 (R1, R2, and D2) and Q2 (R8, R9, and D3) affect losses of power MOSFET, gate waveform (ringing caused by the printed circui t board trace layout ), EMI noise, and so forth, these values should be adjusted based on actual operation in the application.
  • R3 for Q1 and R10 for Q2 are used to prevent malfunctions due to steep dv/dt at turn -off of the power MOSFET, and these resistors are connected near each the gate of the power MOSFETs and the ground line side of the current detection resistance .

As shown in Table 8-2, the IC performs protection operations according to kind of abnormal state. In a ll protection functions, when the fault condition is removed, the IC returns to normal operation automatically.

Auto Restart 1: As shown in Figure 8-10, the IC repeats a n intermitted oscillation operation, after the detection of any one of abnormal states 1 to 5 in Table 8-2. This interm itted oscillation is determined by tARS1 or tARS2, and tAROFF1. The t ARS1 is an oscillation time in the first intermitted oscillation cycle, TAR1. The tARS2 is an oscillation time in the second and subsequent intermitted oscillation cycle, TAR2. The t AROFF1 is a non -oscillation time in all intermitted oscillation cycle. In case PWM dimming frequency is low and the on-duty is small, the startup operation, the restart operation from on -duty = 0 % and the restart operation from intermitted oscillation operati on need a long time. Thus the value of t ARS1 and t ARS2 depend on frequency and on-duty of the PWM dimming signal, as shown in Figure 8-12 and Figure 8-13. In case the on -duty is 100 %, the value of t ARS1 is 61.4 ms, and t ARS2 is 41.0 ms . The value of t AROFF1 is about 1.3 s. Auto Restart 2: As shown in Figure 8-11, the IC stops the switching operation immediately after the detection of abnormal states 6 or 7 in Table 8-2, and repeats a n intermitted oscillation operation. In the intermitted oscillation cycle, the t ARSW is an oscillation time, the t AROFF1 is a non-oscillation time. The value of tARSW is a few microseconds. The value of tARS2 is derived from Figure 8-11, and t AROFF2 is calculated as follows: (s) 3.1ttt ARSW2ARS2AROFF  (8-3) 100 200 300 400 500 600 1 10 100 1000 PWM oscillation frequency of DRV pin (kHz) RFSET (kΩ)

When the fault condition is removed and the IFB pin voltage decreases to VIFB(OCL-OFF.VR) in Figure 8-15, or less, the IC returns to normal operation automatically. 2) In case IFB pin voltage decreased When the FB pin voltage decrease to VIFB(AR.VR) in Figure 8-15, or more, the operation of the IC switches to Auto Restart 1. When the fault condition is removed and the IFB p in voltage increases to above VIFB(AR.VR), the IC returns to normal operation automatically. < The operating condition of Auto Restart 2 > The Auto Restart 2 is operated by the detection signal of the IFB pin. As shown in Figure 8-16, when the FB pin voltage increase to the IFB Pin Overcurrent Protection High Threshold Voltage, VIFB(OCH) = 4.0 V, or more , the operation of the IC switches to Auto Restart 2, and the IC stops switching operation immediately. When the f ault condition is removed and the IFB pin voltage decreases to under VIFB(OCH), the operation of the IC switches to Auto Restart 1. IFB pin voltage SW pin voltage Time Return to normal operation VIFB(OCL-OFF.VR) Auto Restart 2 Auto Restart 1 VIFB(OCH) Figure 8-16 IFB pin threshold voltage and Auto Restart 2 operation < Caution of startup operation > When the LED current is low and the IFB pin voltage is less than VIFB(AR.BR), during startup for example, the IC is operated by Auto Restart 1. If the startup time is too long, the IC operation becomes the intermitted oscillation by the Auto Restart 1. It becomes cause of the fault startup operation, thus the startup time should be set less than tARS1 in Figure 8-10. The protection operation according to the abnormal states in Table 8-2 is described in detail as follows:

8.5.1 Overcurrent of Boost Converter Part

(OCP) When the OC pin detects the overcurrent of boost circuit, the IC switches to Auto Restart 1. Figure 8-17 shows the peripheral circuit of OC pin. When Q1 turns on, the current flowing to L1 is detected by R4, and the voltage on R4 is input to the OC pin. When the OC pin voltage increases to the OC Pin Overcurrent Protection Threshold Voltage, V OCP = 0.60 V or more, the on -duty becomes narrow by pulse-by-pulse basis, and the output power is limited.

8.5.2 Overcurrent of LED Output

(LED_OCP) Figure 8-18 shows the peripheral circuit of IFB pin and COMP pin. When Q2 turns on, the output current is detected by R11. When the boost operation cannot be done by failure such as short cir cuits in LED string, t he IFB pin voltage is increased by the increase of LED current. There are three types of operation modes in LED_OCP state. (1) When the IFB pin voltage is increased by the increase of LED current, COMP pin voltage is decreases. In addition, when the COMP pin voltage decreases to the COMP Pin Voltage at Oscillation Stop, VCOMP(OFF) = 0.25 V or less, the IC stops switching operation, and limits the increase of the output current. When IFB pin voltage is decreased by the decrease of LED curre nt, COMP pin voltage increases. When COMP pin voltage becomes V COMP(ON) = 0.5 0 V or more, the IC restarts switching operation. (2) When IFB pin voltage becomes V IFB(OCL.VR) or more (see Figure 8-15), the IC switches to Auto Restart 1. (3) The LED current increases further and when the IFB pin voltage increases to the IFB Pin Overcurrent

8.5.3 Overvoltage of LED_OUT (+) (OVP)

Figure 8-19 shows OVP pin peripheral circuit. The OVP pin detects the divided LED outp ut voltage by R6 and R7. When the LED_OUT (+) or the IFB pin is open and the OVP pin voltage increases to the OVP Pin Overvoltage Protection Threshold Voltage, VOVP = 3 .00 V, the IC immediately stops switching operation. When the OVP pin voltage decreases to the OVP Pin Overvoltage Protection Release Threshold Voltage, VOVP(OFF) = 2.75 V or the IFB pin voltage decreases to VIFB(AR.VR) in Figure 8-15, then the IC switches to Auto Restart 1.

8.5.4 Short Mode between LED_OUT(−)

When the LED_OUT ( –) and the GND are shorted, and the IFB pin voltage decreases to V IFB(AR.VR) in Figure 8-15, then the IC switches to Auto Restart 1.

8.5.5 Short Mode of LED Current Detection

Resistor (RSEN_Short) When the output current detection resistor, R11, is shorted, the IFB pin voltage decreases. When the IFB pin voltage decreases to V IFB(AR.VR) in Figure 8-15, then the IC switches to Auto Restart 1.

8.5.6 Short Mode of LED Output Both Ends

When the LED_OUT (+) and LED_OUT ( –) are shorted, the short current flows through the detection resistor (R11) while Q2 turns on. The IFB pin detects the voltage rise of the detection resistor. When the IFB pin voltage increases to the IFB Pin Overcurrent Protection High Threshold Voltage, VIFB(OCH) = 4.0 V or more, the IC switches to Auto Restart 2.

8.5.7 Open Mode of LED Current Detection

Resistor (RSEN_Open) When the output current detection resistor, R11, is open, the IFB pin voltage increases. When the IFB pin voltage increases to the IFB Pin Overcurrent Protection High Threshold Voltage, VIFB(OCH) = 4 .0 V or more, the IC switches to Auto Restart 2.

8.5.8 Overtemperature of junction of IC

(TSD) When the temperature of the IC increases to Tj(TSD) = 125 °C (min) or more, the TSD is activated, and the IC stops switching operation. When the junction temperature decreases by T j(TSD) − Tj(TSD)HYS after the fault condition is removed, the IC returns to normal operation automatically.

8.6 Error Signal Output Function

When the protection function is active, the internal switch becomes OFF. The drain of this internal switch is connected to ER pin. In case the error signal is received by external microcomputer, the pull -up resistor, R17, and the protection resistor of ER pin, R ER, are connected as shown in Figure 8-20. When the protection function is active, ER_OUT becomes REG pin voltage from 0 V. The resistances of R17 and RER are about 10 kΩ.

BL0100A-DS Rev.1.1 SANKEN ELECTRIC CO.,LTD. 14 Nov. 27, 2013 9. Design Notes

9.1 Peripheral Components

Take care to use the proper rating and proper type of components.  Input and output electrolytic capacitors, C1 and C2 ▫ Apply proper design margin to accommodate ripple current, voltage, and temperature rise. ▫ Use of high ripple current and low impedance types, designed for switch -mode power supplies, is recommended, depending on their purposes.  Inductor,L1 ▫ Apply proper design margin to temperature rise by core loss and copper loss. ▫ Apply proper design margin to core saturation  Current detection resistors, R4 and R11 Choose a type of low internal inductance because a high frequency switching current fl ows to the current detection resisto r, and of properly allowable dissipation.

9.2 Inductor Design Parameters

The CRM * or DCM* mode of boost converter with PWM dimming can improve the output current rise during PWM dimming. * CRM is the critical conduction mode, DCM is the discontinuous conduction mode. The CRM or DCM inductor design procedure is described as follow: (1) On-duty Setting The output voltage of boost converter is more than the input voltage. The on -duty, DON can be calculated using following equation. The equality of the equation means the condition of CRM mode operation and the inequality means that of DCM mode operation. OUT INOUT ON V VVD  (9-1) where: VIN is the minimum input voltage, VOUT is the maximum forward voltage drop of LED string. DON is selected by the above equation applied to CRM or DCM mode. In case f PWM = 100 kHz, the range of D ON should be 1.4 % to 90 %. In case fPWM = 500 kHz, the range of D ON should be 7 % to 90 %.

9.3 PCD Trace Layout and Component

Since the PCB circuit trace design and the component layout significantly affects operation, EMI noise, and power dissipation, the high frequency PCB trace as shown in Figure 9-1 should be low impedance with small loop and wide trace. Figure 9-1 High-frequency current loops (hatched areas) In addition, the ground traces affect radiated EMI noise, and wide, short traces should be taken into account. Figure 9-2 shows the circuit design example. (1) Main Circuit Trace Layout This is the main trace containing switching currents, and thus it should be as wide trace and small loop as possible. C1 s hould be connected near the inductors, L1, in order to reduce impedance of the high frequency current loop. (2) Control Ground Trace Layout Since the operation of IC may be affected from the large current of the main trace that flows in control ground trace, t he control ground trace should be

BL0100A-DS Rev.1.1 SANKEN ELECTRIC CO.,LTD. 18 Nov. 27, 2013 OPERATING PRECAUTIONS In the case that you use Sanken products or design your products by using Sanken products, the reliability largely depends on the degree of derating to be made to the rated values. Derating may be interpreted as a case that an operation range is set by derating the load from each rated value or surge voltage or noise is considered for derating in order to assure or improve the reliability. In general, derating factors include electric stresses such as electric voltage, electric current, electric power etc., environmental stresses such as ambient temperature, humidity etc. and thermal stress caused due to self-heating of semiconductor products. For these stresses, insta ntaneous values, maximum values and minimum values must be taken into consideration. In addition, it should be noted that since power devices or IC’s including power devices have large self-heating value, the degree of derating of junction temperature affects the reliability significantly. Because reliability can be affected adversely by improper storage environments and handling methods, please observe the following cautions. Cautions for Storage  Ensure that storage conditions comply with the standard temperature (5 to 35°C) and the standard relative humidity (around 40 to 75%); avoid storage locations that experience extreme changes in temperature or humidity.  Avoid locations where dust or harmful gases are present and avoid direct sunlight.  Reinspect for rust on leads and solderability of the products that have been stored for a long time. Cautions for Testing and Handling When tests are carried out during inspection testing and other standard test periods, protect the products from power surges from the testing device, shorts between the product pins, and wrong connections. Ensure all test parameters are within the ratings specified by Sanken for the products. Soldering  When soldering the products, please be sure to minimize the working time, within the following limits:

  • 260 ± 5 °C 10 ± 1 s (Flow, 2 times)
  • 380 ± 10 °C 3.5 ± 0.5 s (Soldering iron, 1 time) Electrostatic Discharge  When handling the products, the operator must be grounded. Grounded wrist straps worn should have at least 1M Ω of resistance from the operator to ground to prevent shock hazard, and it should be placed near the operator.  Workbenches where the products are handled should be grounded and be provided with conductive table and floor mats.  When using measuring equipment such as a curve tracer, the equipment should be grounded.  When soldering the products, the head of soldering irons or the solder bath must be grounded in order to prevent leak voltages generated by them from being applied to the products.  The products s hould always be stored and transported in Sanken shipping containers or conductive containers, or be wrapped in aluminum foil.
