Circuit Description
Key Features
This circuit is proposed for driving the
Sharp ZENIGATA LED module in a variety
of lighting applications. Configurations like
this are found in 12 VAC track lighting
applications, automotive applications, and
low voltage AC landscaping applications as
well as task lighting such as under-cabinet
lights and desk lamps that might be
powered from standard off-the-shelf 5 and
12 VAC wall adapters. The circuit is based
on the NCP3065 operation at ~150 kHz in a
non-isolated
configuration.
Key
consideration in this design was achieving
flat current regulation across input line
variation and output voltage variation with a
12VAC input.

Basic Power Topology
The principle of the Buck-Boost converter is fairly simple (see Figure 2):
While in the On-state, the input voltage source is directly connected to the inductor (L). This results in
accumulating energy in L. In this stage, the capacitor C supplies energy to the output load;
While in the Off-state, the inductor is connected to the output load and capacitor through the Output
Diode, so energy is transferred to the load.
Remember this is an inverting output. So the negative output will connect to the anode of the LED, and
the positive output will connect to the cathode of the LED.
Also note, when trying to make measurements with a scope probe, that ground is NOT ground. The
scope will need to be floating (ground connection removed from the AC wall source) or there will be a
ground loop / short circuit that will cause the device to turn off.

Figure 3 – NCP3065 Burst Mode Controller
Burst Mode Control
The basic control loop consists of a 0.235V internal Reference, a Feedback Comparator, and two SetDominant RS Latches. Basically the NCP3065 allows the Power FET for the Buck-Boost stage to
switch ON as the Feedback Voltage falls below the reference voltage. The Power FET will be then be
forced OFF unconditionally during Ct Ramp down.
R8 is used to sense the inductor current and is fed to the FB pin of the NCP3065.
This application produces OFF time instantaneous (Ivalley) inductor current control (see Figure 4). A
cycle of switch ON time is only allowed to start once the OFF time Inductor current crosses the Vref
threshold.

Figure 4 - Buck-Boost Inductor Current
Since the controller does not provide integral PWM control and utilizes only a comparator trip point for
feedback, the peak to average load current is not in direct proportion as in a Buck Converter, but rather
follows the following formula:

Where, Ivalley is the lowest inductor current point. Plotting Iave vs Vin shows a dramatic curve which
would cause a significant change in light output of the LED (see Figure 5).

Figure 6 - Average LED Current vs Vin DC (With Vin Compensation)
A resistive divider network consisting of R3, R5 and summing resistor R4 are used to add Vin
proportional voltage to the FB pin in order to reduce the load current as Vin is increased. This has the
effect of flattening the curve of Figure 5 and reduces the overall current error (see Figure 6). This
average line can be DC shifted with R8 and the ends can be aligned by adjusting R5, R3 and R4.
R9 and C6 are used to limit the gate to source voltage on the external switch at high input voltage. The
resistor divider network of R9 and R2 are used to program and gate to source maximum.

Pulsed Feedback Resistor
R7 and D5 are used to reduce the possibility of pulse skipping (see Figure 7). Since burst mode control
involves only one feedback voltage, cross-detection per cycle and does not involve the use of a window
comparator, it is possible to have skipped pulses which do not effect the DC regulation but could be
visible as flicker in an LED application. R7 and D5 add current to the Ct timing capacitor C2. This
effectively limits the maximum achievable duty cycle of the NCP3065. When conditions warrant low
duty cycle, R7 and D5 make higher than desired duty cycles unavailable. D7 is necessary to block
voltage during the OFF time, since this is Buck-Boost Topology. More information on Pulsed
Feedback compensation is available in the NCP3065 data sheet.

AC Operation vs DC
Since there is a half sine wave input to the Buck-Boost stage, there is a different operating point as
compared with pure DC input. Since small size is a goal for this design very little input capacitance is
used past the full bridge rectifier. Therefore, the input to the converter is a half wave rectified sine
wave. Since the regulator is non-functional below ~4V there are dead spots in the regulation. So we end
up with regulation for some finite portion ~80% of the 60Hz line cycle, and then no output for ~20%.
This has the effect of reducing the average current by ~20% when operating with AC input.
An additional AC compensation network is added to the Vin Compensation to account for the different
operating point (see Figure 8).

Protection
Z1 and R1, along with the Current limit feature of the NCP3065, are used for open circuit protection. In
the event of an open circuit at the load, the loop will try to increase the output voltage in order to satisfy
the current demand which feeds back zero current. When (Vin + Vout) exceeds the voltage of Z1,
current will flow in R1 which triggers the current limit function of the NCP3065.
Short circuit protection is handled with a fuse, F1, on the input. Surge protection from inductive loads
is an important consideration specifically in transformer fed systems that carry significant source
inductance. The surge device needs to be selected to a voltage that will never exceed the gate to source
voltage of the power FET with reasonable voltage margin. This may require some trial and error to
select since the clamp voltage will stretch depending on how much energy needs to be absorbed
Increasing Output CurrentThe reference design is configured for 350mA average LED current. Increasing the current regulation
point on the reference board is as simple as cutting the current sense resistor R8 in half from
250mOhms to 125mOhms. Also, the input fuse must be increased to accommodate the increased input
current draw. Heat sinking may be required depending on the implementation of the Housing and the
environmental characteristics when moving to the higher power design.
