FUNCTIONAL PIN DESCRIPTION Description C_R Lamp Frequency Programming Capacitor Pin – lamp running frequency is set by the combination of C_R and I_R. The internal lamp current oscillator frequency can be forced to follow an external clock signal at this pin. In this case, the programmed frequency must be lower than the external frequency. Minimum pulse width for external synch signal is 1µsec. Maximum duty is 50% I_R Current Reference Resistor Input. Connects to an external resistor that determines the magnitude of internal bias currents. The I_R pin is a DC reference voltage of 1V. This voltage cannot be used for other than its intended function. The reference current established at this pin by connecting an external resistor is used to charge a capacitor at the C_R pin. The nominal lamp frequency can be adjusted by varying this resistor value in the range of 20K to 100K Ohms. (Note: C is in pF, R is in KΩ , Freq is in KHz). 242 × 10 3 FLAMP = CC _ R ⋅ RI _ R Other reference currents derived from I_R are used for the digital dimming burst oscillator and the strike time out function.

Microsemi .C OM Name Burst dimming mode frequency set capacitor. Internal bias currents set via the I_R pin are scaled down and used to charge and discharge the capacitor connected at the C_BST pin. The voltage at the C_BST pin is a sawtooth waveform displaying a voltage that ranges from 0.5V to 2.5V. The frequency of the PWM for digital dimming is set by the I_R and C_BST pins. 98039 where RI_R is in KΩ and CC_BST is in nF, FDIM is Hz FDIM = CC _ BST .RI _ R The internal burst oscillator frequency can also be forced to follow an external clock signal at this pin. In this case, the programmed frequency must be lower than the external frequency. C_TO Time Out set capacitor. An external capacitor is charged with an on chip current source to create a voltage ramp. Over voltage fault shutdown is disabled until C_TO voltage rises above 3.5V, providing a user programmed strike interval. After C_TO is reached to the internal threshold level, then it will be discharged to 0V. Also Short lamp detection will be disabled until C_TO voltage rises above 0.5V. Strike Interval time is where RI_R is in KΩ and CC_TO is in µF t = 0.035 RI _ R ⋅ CC _ TO And Short lamp detection disable time internal is t = 0.005 RI _ R ⋅ CC _ TO VDDA Analog Voltage Regulator Output. This output pin is used to connect an external capacitor to stabilize and filter the on-chip LDO regulator. The input of the LDO is the switched VDDP supply. The LDO output is nominally 4.0V and is used to drive all circuitry except the output buffers at AOUT, BOUT, COUT and DOUT. The drop out voltage is typically 0.05V at 2mA; the average internal load. This output can supply up to a 5mA external load. The output capacitor should be a 100nF ceramic dielectric type. ENABLE Chip Enable Input. If logic high, all functions are enabled. If logic low, internal power is disconnected from the VDDP pin, disabling all functions. Logic threshold is 1.85V / 1.35V maximum over supply and temperature range. Maximum current into VDDP when ENABLE < 0.8V, is 50µA. ENABLE may be connected directly to VDDP if the disable function is not used BRITE_D Brightness Control Input for digital dimming. The input signal can be a DC voltage or low frequency PWM signal. Active DC voltage range is 0.5V to 2.5V. Signals above 2.5V makes continuous operation, voltages between 0.5V and 2.5V makes PWM digital dimming. Digital dimming pulse width varies from 100% duty at 2.5V to 0% duty at 0.5V. A minimum BRITE_D input voltage (externally supplied) of approximately TBDV is required to prevent fault stop. PWM inputs from either 3.3V or 5V logic are permissible. Frequency may range up to 1KHz. Max jitter of more than 1µs / V on this input may cause noticeable lamp flicker. Refer to Dimming configuration Table for setting. VCOMP Voltage loop compensation pin for transformer output voltage regulation. An external capacitor is connected from this pin to Ground to adjust loop response. An external resistor divider is connected to limit the maximum output duty cycle while the IC is operating in strike mode. Recommended resistor divider value are 100K from VDDA and 300K to GND. BRITE_A Brightness control input for analog dimming. The input signal can be a DC voltage or a PWM signal that has been externally filtered to DC. Active DC voltage range is 0 to 2V. Signals above 2V and below 0.45V are clamped and do not change amplitude of output current. VIN_SNS Input voltage sense pin. An external resistor and capacitor are connected to this pin to control slope of the frequency tracking oscillator and open lamp voltage regulator timing ramp. Ramp slope becomes steeper as the external bridge power supply increases providing rapid line voltage transient response. This feature permits using very low profile transformers that can easily saturate if simultaneously exposed to both high voltage and high duty cycle operation.

This error amplifier is a gm type and does not require an external capacitor for stability. An External capacitor is connected from this pin to Ground to adjust loop response of the inverter module. This capacitor value can vary from 0.1nF to 33nF as required by specific applications. Error amplifier output voltage is not allowed to exceed the peak voltage of its associated comparator ramp by more than 10%. LX1692 ® TM Full Bridge Resonant CCFL Controller P RODUCTION D ATA S HEET FUNCTIONAL PIN DESCRIPTION (CONTINUED) Description OC_SNS Over current sense input. The OC_SNS input is compared to a 2V reference. The comparator output shuts off the PWM outputs to prevent possible secondary failures. The input voltage at this pin is not rectified. Normal operating voltage levels will be in the range of ±0.5V to VDDP. An abnormal voltage can operate continuously as high as ±7V peak under load fault conditions. Transients under fault conditions up to ±11 VPEAK are permitted. An input voltage above 4 peak but less than ±11V peak may cause saturation but will not cause malfunction, phase reversal, or reliability issues with the IC. OV_SNS Over Voltage Sense Input. This input pin monitors a voltage divider (approximately 1000:1) placed across the lamp. During strike mode the frequency tracking oscillator uses the voltage waveform from the divider to determine and track load resonant frequency, and the open lamp voltage regulator uses it to regulate open circuit voltage. During both run and strike modes, fault detection comparators monitor voltage amplitude to determine if load opens or shorts occur. See functional description section for details on internal circuit operation. Frequency range of the input signal is from 30KHz to 150KHz and must not be rectified. Normal operating voltage levels will be in the range of ±0.5 to ±VDDP peak, centered about +0.2 VDC. An abnormal voltage can operate continuously as high as ±7V peak under load fault conditions. Transients under load fault conditions up to ±11V peak are permitted. An input voltage above ±4Vpk may cause saturation, but will not cause malfunction, phase reversal, or reliability issues with the IC WWW . Microsemi .C OM Name ISNS Current Sense Input. The ISNS input is full wave rectified by an On-Chip circuit, then presented to the inverting input of the current error amplifier. Frequency range of the input signal is DC to 200KHz. The ISNS pin also monitors lamp current to determine if the lamp is ignited. If a single cycle at the ISNS pin is greater than 0.7V, the strike / run flip flop is clocked to the RUN state and threshold of the strike comparator is lowered to 0.3V. During RUN mode current levels are continuously monitored to detect less than 0.3V. A counter clocked by RMPD_OUT is reset each time current is sensed at this input. If the counter overflows (256 counts) a fault latch is set which shuts down the IC. This fault is expected to occur when the lamp is shorted to ground through an impedance of less than 2K ohms or the ISNS resistor itself is shorted. The counter is inhibited during digital dimming off time. Normal operating voltage levels will be in the range of ±0.5V to ±5.5V. An abnormal voltage can operate continuously as high as ±7V peak under load fault conditions. Transients under fault conditions up to ±11 VPK are permitted. Input voltages up 4V peak are linearly rectified. An input voltage above ±4V peak but less than ±11V peak may cause saturation but will not cause malfunction, phase reversal, or reliability issues with the IC. DOUT A buffer P-FET driver output.

VDDP is switched (see ENABLE) to remove power from chip. An LDO regulator follows the switch and generates 4.0VDC. The output driver stages are powered directly from the VDDP input. The output capacitor should be a 1000nF or larger ceramic dielectric type.

These include the following: a. Open or broken lamp b. High Voltage Arcing on transformer secondary side c. Short across lamp terminals d. Short from high side of lamp to ground e. Short from low side of lamp to ground ( current sense resistor shorted) Three inputs from the lamp are monitored to detect these conditions, ISNS, OV_SNS, and OC_SNS. Fault protection is designed to prevent fire or smoke from being generated by terminating inverter operation in the event of failures in the high voltage components and the power FET’s. All fault shut down events can only be reset by ENABLE or VDDP cycling. OPEN LAMP When the IC is first powered on or enabled, the inverter output voltage must be made higher than the normal operating voltage of the lamp to cause ignition. The LX1692 generates this higher “strike” voltage by operating at the open circuit resonant frequency of the load inductance and capacitance. Because of its high unloaded Q, a large resonant rise of voltage occurs across the lamp, and produces ignition. Both resonant frequency and Q of the lamp circuit are higher when the lamp is off than when on. The lamp may not ignite immediately when specified strike voltage is applied. It is customary to apply strike voltage for from 0.3 to 3 seconds to insure ignition of cold, dark, or aged lamps. The LX1692 has a programmable time out for this purpose. During strike time out, open lamp voltage is regulated to a value programmed by a voltage divider across the lamp and sensed at the OV_SNS pin. Microsemi Integrated Products Division 11861 Western Avenue, Garden Grove, CA. 92841, 714-898-8121, Fax: 714-893-2570 Page 1 DESCRIPTION OSCILLATOR CHARACTERISTICS The main oscillator in the LX1692 has two frequency control loops; a resonant tracking loop and a fixed frequency loop. The fixed frequency loop is user set via the I_R resistor and the C_R capacitor value. The resonant tracking loop follows the natural resonant frequency of the load. STRIKING THE LAMP Lamp ignition is determined by monitoring the lamp current feedback voltage at the ISNS pin. If less than 1.0V during the strike period, the lamp is considered not ignited and Strike mode continues until ignition is detected or strike time out (approximately 1 - 2 seconds) is reached. If greater than 1.0V, strike is declared and a latch is set. The IC is now in “run” mode. And threshold voltage for strike detect is reduced to 0.3V to permit a minimum 3:1 analog dimming ratio to be achieved. During strike, lamp operating frequency is always controlled by the resonant frequency tracking loop. At power up the lamp is not ignited and the loads’ natural resonant frequency will be typically1.3 to 1.5 times higher than after the lamp has ignited. The tracking oscillator frequency will slew to near the natural resonant frequency of the load. At open circuit resonance load Q is high and produces a large rise of voltage across the lamp, eliminating the need to use a high transformer turns ratio. Additionally, since frequency is high, the volt-seconds applied to the transformer primary is minimized. This permits the use of smaller transformers that have reduced core cross sectional area. During striking operation, ICOMP is limited to 2.5V until ignition latch is set. When it starts the striking operation, it starts the striking frequency as user programmed operating frequency. And when OVSNS is detected zero cross point , then tracking oscillator will start to sweep the frequency up to near to the circuit resonant frequency and it will track the frequency to reach user programmed open lamp voltage. At the moment of lamp ignition, operating frequency immediately switches to the programmed value of the fixed frequency oscillator. Lamp current flow is sensed by the strike detection comparator, which decides to return PWM timing control to the fixed frequency oscillator WWW . Microsemi .C OM OPERATING MODES Two operating modes, Strike and Run, are employed by the LX1692. Upon power up or ENABLE going true, strike mode is entered. After a successful strike, e.g., lamp is ignited, run mode is entered. If ignition is unsuccessful, or if the lamp extinguishes while running, a fault is declared and the controller automatically shuts down. LX1692 TM ® Full Bridge Resonant CCFL Controller P RODUCTION D ATA S HEET FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION (CONTINUED) HIGH VOLTAGE ARC OR OVER PROGRAMMED VOLTAGE If a high voltage arc occurs due to intermittent lamp contacts or component failure, if the over voltage feedback divider is improperly designed, or if the open lamp voltage regulation circuitry fails, the peak voltage on the OV_SNS pin will rise above + 3.2 VDC. This creates a pulse that increments a 4 bit accumulating counter. After 16 events are counted, an open lamp fault is declared and the IC outputs are latched off. This fault is enabled at all times, including during lamp striking. The 4 bit counter is reset by signal C_BST which typically operates at 100 to 300 Hz. Also, OVSNS pin voltage is greater than 3.2V, then ICOMP pin will be forced to discharge to 0V about 600ns. OPEN LAMP VOLTAGE REGULATION The open lamp voltage regulator regulates the peak voltage on the OV_SNS pin to ±1.97 volts, + the 0.2 volt offset, with a maximum tolerance ±8% (±158 mV). Assuming an additional ±5% tolerance for each of the two capacitors or resistors in the high voltage divider, maximum open lamp voltage tolerance at the system level is ±18%. At the high side of tolerance, OV_SNS peak voltage is +2.42V, on the low side of tolerance, OV_SNS input voltage will be regulated at +1.914 VPK. If tighter total voltage regulation is needed in a given application, the feedback divider can be made with 1% resistors. INTERMITTENT OR BROKEN LAMP AFTER SUCCESSFUL IGNITION Copyright © 2004 Rev. 1.2, 12/20/2006 SHORTS FROM THE HIGH VOLTAGE TERMINAL TO GROUND. Soft shorts, including the UL safety test that places a 2K ohm resistor across the lamp connector, are normally not a problem because the current regulation circuitry limits current flow to the normal lamp amplitude. However, if the short is strong enough to lower the voltage at the OV_SNS pin to less than 0.7 volts peak, the 7 bit shorted lamp time out counter reset is blocked. If this counter overflows a fault is declared and the IC outputs are latched off. This fault detection is enabled during both strike and run modes. This fault detection is disabled until voltage at C_TO rises above 0.5V. The watch dog counter is not allowed to increment during digital dimming off time while in run mode. This fault will also be generated In the event of a hard short directly across the lamp terminals, or from the high voltage terminal to ground. SHORT CIRCUITS FROM GROUND TO THE LOW SIDE LAMP TERMINAL. A Short to ground from the lamp return terminal also shorts out the lamp current sense resistor, removing current feedback to the controller. This short is detected as a rise in voltage across the OC_SNS resistor which is located on the normally grounded side of the HV transformer secondary. A comparator senses peak voltage > 2.0VDC at the OC_SNS pin. This comparator clocks the 4 bit watch dog timer described above in the open lamp fault logic. Sixteen events during a single cycle of the C_BST signal will overflow the watchdog counter and cause an over current shut down during either strike or run mode. ON CHIP LDO REGULATOR Output voltage is 4.0 ±5%. Supplies all internal circuitry except output driver stage. Capable to source 5mA to external circuitry. UNDER VOLTAGE LOCKOUT Keeps chip outputs active off until VDDA is high enough to insure stable operation. DIMMING MODES Separate input pins are available for digital and analog dimming modes for maximum flexibility. See dimming truth table below. Digital dimming rise and fall times can be controlled by the ICOMP capacitor (See Dimming Modes Table).

After ignition, peak voltage on the ISNS input is dependent on lamp current amplitude and voltage on the BRITE_A pin. I_SNS signal amplitude should be designed to be greater than ±400 mVPK (280 mVRMS) to insure a false open lamp fault shut down does not occur. A comparator monitors ISNS and generates a reset pulse to a watch dog timer for any peak voltage > 0.3V. The watch dog, a 9 bit binary counter, is reset once every cycle of I_SNS voltage. If lamp current flowing through the ISNS resistor is too low (e.g., voltage is less than 0.3V peak), reset pulses are not generated and the counter is allowed to overflow and set the fault latch. Nominal short circuit duration is 500 micro seconds when operating at 65KHz. SHORT CIRCUITS ACROSS THE LAMP TERMINALS AND WWW . Microsemi .C OM Strike time out is programmed by selecting the capacitor value at the C_TO pin. If the lamp has not ignited before the end of strike time out, a fault is declared and the IC outputs are latched off.
