DEMO MANUAL DC2345A LT8391EFE 60V Synchronous 4-Switch Buck-Boost Led Controller with Spread Spectrum DESCRIPTION Demonstration circuit 2345A is a 60V synchronous 4-switch buck-boost LED controller with spread spectrum featuring the LT®8391 LED driver. It accepts an input voltage from 4V to 60V and drives a single string of LEDs up to 25V at 2A. DC2345A runs at 400kHz switching frequency without spread spectrum, but spread spectrum frequency modulation (SSFM) can be enabled with a simple jumper. SSFM spreads the switching frequency to fsw ±15% for reduced EMI. The LT8391 has a wide input voltage range down to 4V and up to 60V. It has adjustable switching frequency between 150kHz and 600kHz. There is a simple jumper option for external frequency synchronization, spread spectrum frequency modulation, or neither. The LT8391 can be PWM dimmed with an external PWM signal and an internally-generated PWM signal. DC2345A has a jumper that can e set to switch between internallygenerated PWM signal, externally-generated PWM signal, and no PWM signal (100% on). It can be analog dimmed with a control voltage on either of its two control pins. LT8391 features both open LED and short LED (LED+ to GND) protection as well as a fault output flag. When run with both PWM dimming and spread spectrum, the spread spectrum aligns itself with the PWM signal for flicker-free operation. Small ceramic input and output capacitors are used to save space and cost. The board is designed with capacitors on both sides of the synchronous switches for a reduction in radiated EMI. The open LED overvoltage protection uses the IC’s constant voltage regulation loop to regulate the output to approximately 29.7V if the LED string is opened although it may reach 32V peak during transient from running LEDs to open. There is a protection diode from LED+ to GND to prevent negative ringing during a short-circuit with long wires. Undervoltage lockout can be adjusted on the circuit with a few simple resistor choices. There is an EMI filter on the input of DC2345A. This filter has a 3.2µH inductor and two 4.7µF capacitors. It is effective in reducing the conducted EMI in the AM band to pass CISPR25 class 5 regulations. When run with SSFM, DC2345A has low conducted EMI. The LT8391 data sheet gives a complete description of the part, operation and applications information. The data sheet must be read in conjunction with this Demo Manual for demonstration circuit DC2345A. The LT8391EFE is assembled in a 28-lead plastic TSSOP (FE) package with a thermally enhanced ground pad. Proper board layout is essential for maximum thermal performance.

Observe the LED string running at the programmed LED current. 1. With power off, connect a string of LEDs that will run with forward voltage less than or equal to 25V (at 2A) to the LED+ and GND banana jacks on the PCB as shown in Figure 1. 8. To change the brightness with analog dimming, simply attach a voltage source to either the CTRL1 or CTRL2 terminal and set the voltage between 0V and 1.5V. See data sheet for details. 2. Connect the EN/UVLO terminal to GND. 9. To change brightness with external PWM dimming, set JP1 to EXT/ON and JP3 to EXT. Attach a 3V rectangular waveform with varying duty cycle to the PWM terminal. 3. Set JP1 to EXT/ON and JP3 to ON for 100% always-on LED operation. Set JP2 to NO SPREAD/SYNC to run without SSFM or external synchronization. 4. With power off, connect the input power supply to the EMIVIN and GND banana jacks. Make sure that the DC input voltage will not exceed 60V. 5. Turn the input power supply on and make sure the voltage is between 4V and 60V for proper operation. 6. Release the EN/UVLO-to-GND connection. 2 10.To change brightness with internally-generated PWM dimming, set JP1 to INT and JP3 to INT. Adjust the setting of the VR1 variable resistor with a small flathead screwdriver to toggle between 0% and 100% PWM dimming duty cycle in 1/128 steps. 11.To enable spread spectrum frequency modulation, set JP2 to SPREAD ON. dc2345af DEMO MANUAL DC2345A QUICK START PROCEDURE + + – ILED IIN + – – + – VIN + – VOUT SET JP2 FOR SPREAD SPECTRUM OR EXTERNAL SYNCHRONIZATION SET JP3 FOR PWM DIMMING TYPE ON = 100% ON WITH NO PWM DIM INT = INTERNAL PWM DIMMING SET WITH JP1 AND VR1 EXT = EXTERNAL PWM DIMMING SET WITH JP1 AND PWM INPUT NOTE: SET JP1 TO MATCH JP3 OPTIONAL EXTERNAL FREQUENCY SYNC + OPTIONAL CONNECT TO GND FOR SHUTDOWN FLOAT = ENABLE – OPTIONAL PWM INPUT FOR EXTERNAL PWM DIMMING OPTIONAL OPTIONAL CTRL2 CTRL1 ANALOG ANALOG DIMMING DIMMING FLOAT FLOAT OKAY OKAY DC2345A F01 Figure 1.
