NOTES
The PCB is supplied with R3 and R8 0R0 resistors fitted.
The ‘ADJ’ pin and the ‘TADJ’ pin are disabled.
‘VIN’ and ‘VAUX’ are shorted on ZXLD1370EV1
The LED current of the ZXLD1370EV1 boards = 1.5A with 2x // 0R3 = 0R15 (R1 & R2)
The ZXLD1370 ‘VAUX’ pin can be driven from a separate supply instead of the ‘VIN’ voltage.
To do this, remove R14, fit R11 = 10k0, fit R13 = 10k0.
Use Zener diode D2 to keep ‘VAUX’ pin <15V.
For other reference designs or more applications information, please see the ZXLD1370 datasheet.
OPERATION
In Buck mode, the LED current is sensed by the resistor (R1 // R2). An output from the control loop
responsible for sensing this current drives the input of an internal comparator. The comparator drives the gate
of the external NMOS switch transistor through the ‘GATE’ pin. When the NMOS switch is on, current flows
from ‘VIN’, through (R1 // R2), the LED, the inductor and the switch to ground, and increases until a high value
is reached. Then, ‘GATE’ goes low, the switch turns off and the current flows through (R1 // R2), the LED, the
inductor and D1, back to ‘VIN’. When the inductor current has gone low, ‘GATE’ goes high, the switch turns
on, and the cycle repeats resulting in the circuit oscillates. The average current in the LED equals the average
of the maximum and minimum threshold currents. The ripple current (hysteresis) is equal to the difference
between the thresholds. The control loop keeps the average LED current at the level set by the voltage on the
‘ADJ’ pin. Loop compensation is achieved by C1.

ZXLD1370EV1
ADJ Terminal (DC output current adjustment)
On the ZXLD1370EV1, R3 connects the ‘ADJ’ pin to ‘VREF’ to give 100% LED current.
The ‘ADJ’ pin can be driven with an external DC voltage >=125mV and <=2.5V to adjust the LED current to
>=10% and <=200% of the nominal value.
To do this, remove R3, fit R5 and apply an external DC voltage between ‘ADJIN’ and ‘GND’.
The voltage ‘VADJ ‘ can be derived from a resistor-divider connected between ‘REF’ and ‘GND’.
‘ADJ’ has a high impedance within its normal operating voltage range. An internal 2.6V clamp protects the
device against high input voltages and limits the maximum output current to about 4% above the maximum
current set by ‘VADJ ‘ if the maximum input voltage is exceeded.
PWM Terminal (PWM output current control/dimming)
The LED current can be adjusted digitally, by applying a low frequency PWM logic signal to the ‘PWM’ pin to
turn the controller on and off. This will produce an average output current proportional to the duty cycle of the
control signal. During PWM operation, the device remains powered-up and only the output is switched by the
control signal.
The device can be shut down by taking the ‘PWM’ pin to to <0.4V for >15ms with a short to 0V or suitable
open collector NPN, or open drain NMOS transistor. In shutdown, most of the circuitry inside the device is off
and the quiescent current will be typically 90µA.
TADJ Terminal (Thermal control of LED current)
The Thermal control circuit monitors the voltage on the ‘TADJ’ pin and reduces the output current linearly if the
voltage on ‘TADJ’ < 625mV. An NTC thermistor and resistor can be connected to set the voltage on the ‘TADJ’
pin = 625mV at the required threshold temperature. This will give 100% LED current below the threshold
temperature and <100% current above it as shown in the graph. The temperature threshold can be changed
by adjusting the value of Rth and/or the thermistor to suit the LED used.
On the ZXLD1370EV1, Rth is 1K3 (R4). To use Thermal control, remove R8, fit R6, and fit a 10K NTC
(Negative Temperature Coefficient) type thermistor between ‘TADJ’ and ‘GND’. This will set the threshold
temperature to ~90ºC.
Thermal control by LED current reduction

The Thermal Control feature can be disabled by connecting ‘TADJ’ to ‘REF’ through the jumper resistor R8.
