Figure 1. CS1610/11/12/13 Block Diagram
A typical schematic using the CS1610/11 for flyback
applications is shown on the previous page.
Startup current is provided from a patent-pending, external
high-voltage source-follower network. In addition to providing
startup current, this unique topology is integral in providing
compatibility with digital dimmers by ensuring VDD power is
always available to the IC. During steady-state operation, an
auxiliary winding on the boost inductor back-biases the
source-follower circuit and provides steady-state operating
current to the IC to improve system efficiency.
The rectified input voltage is sensed as a current into pin IAC
and is used to control the adaptive dimmer compatibility
algorithm and extract the phase of the input voltage for output
dimming control. During steady-state operation, the external
high-voltage, source-follower circuit is source-switched in
critical conduction mode (CRM) to boost the input voltage.
This allows the boost stage to maintain good power factor,
provides dimmer compatibility, reduces bulk capacitor ripple
current, and provides a regulated input voltage to the second
stage.
2
The output voltage of the CRM boost is sensed by the current
into the boost output voltage sense pin (BSTOUT). The quasiresonant second stage is implemented with peak-current
mode primary-side control, which eliminates the need for
additional components to provide feedback from the
secondary and reduces system cost and complexity.
Voltage across an external user-selected resistor is sensed
through pin FBSENSE to control the peak current through the
second stage inductor. Leading-edge and trailing-edge
blanking on pin FBSENSE prevents false triggering.
Pin FBAUX is used to sense the second stage inductor
demagnetization to ensure quasi-resonant switching of the
output stage.
When an external negative temperature coefficient (NTC)
thermistor is connected to the eOTP pin, the
CS1610/11/12/13 monitors the system temperature, allowing
the controller to reduce the output current of the system. If the
temperature reaches a designated high set point, the IC is
shutdown and stops switching.

The CS1610/11/12/13 has an internal shunt regulator that limits the voltage on the VDD pin. VZ, the shunt regulation voltage, is
defined in the VDD Supply Voltage section on page 4.
External circuitry should be designed to ensure that the ZCD current drawn from the internal clamp diode when it is forward biased
does not exceed specification.
The conductance is specified in Siemens (S or 1/). Each LSB of the internal ADC corresponds to 250nS or one parallel 4M
resistor. Full scale corresponds to 256 parallel 4M resistors or 15.625k.
Specifications are guaranteed by design and are characterized and correlated using statistical process methods.

CS1610/11/12/13
5. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
5.1 Overview
The CS1610/11/12/13 is a digital control IC engineered to
deliver a high-efficiency, cost-effective, flicker-free, phasedimmable, solid-state lighting (SSL) solution for the incandescent
lamp replacement market. The CS1610/11 is designed to control
a quasi-resonant flyback topology. The CS1612/13 is designed
to control a buck topology. The CS1610/12 and CS1611/13 are
designed for 120VAC and 230VAC line voltage applications,
respectively.
The CS1610/11/12/13 integrates a critical conduction mode
(CRM) boost converter that provides power factor correction and
dimmer compatibility with a constant output current, quasiresonant second stage. An adaptive dimmer compatibility
algorithm controls the boost stage and dimmer compatibility
operation mode to enable flicker-free operation to <2% output
current with leading-edge, trailing-edge, and digital dimmers
(dimmers with an integrated power supply).
5.2 Startup Circuit
An external, high-voltage source-follower circuit is used to
deliver startup current to the IC. During steady-state operation,
an auxiliary winding on the boost inductor biases this circuit to
an off state to improve system efficiency, and all IC supply
current is generated from the auxiliary winding. The patentpending technology of the external, high-voltage sourcefollower circuit enables system compatibility with digital
dimmers (dimmers containing an internal power supply) by
providing a continuous path for the dimmer’s power supply to
recharge during its off state. During steady-state operation, the
high-voltage FET, Q2, in this circuit is source-switched by a
variable internal current source on the SOURCE pin to create
the boost circuit. A Schottky diode with a forward voltage less than
0.6V is recommended for D5. Schottky diode D5 will limit inrush
current through the internal diode preventing damage to the IC.
5.3 Dimmer Switch Detection
The CS1610/11/12/13 dimmer switch detection algorithm
determines if the SSL system is controlled by a regular switch,
a leading-edge dimmer, or a trailing-edge dimmer. Dimmer
switch detection is implemented using two modes: Dimmer
Learn Mode and Dimmer Validate Mode. These assist in
limiting the system power losses. Once the IC reaches its UVLO
start threshold, VST(th), and begins operating, the
CS1610/11/12/13 is in Dimmer Learn Mode, allowing the
dimmer switch detection circuit to set the operating state of the
IC to one of three modes: No-dimmer Mode, Leading-edge
Mode, or Trailing-edge Mode.
5.3.1
Dimmer Learn Mode
In Dimmer Learn Mode, the dimmer detection circuit spends
approximately two line-cycles learning whether there is a
dimmer switch and, if present, whether it is a trailing-edge or
leading-edge dimmer. In Dimmer Learn Mode, a modified
version of the leading-edge algorithm is used. The trailing-side
slope of the input line voltage is sensed to decide whether the
8
dimmer switch is a trailing-edge dimmer. The dimmer detection
circuit transitions to Dimmer Validate Mode once the circuit
detects a dimmer is present.
5.3.2
Dimmer Validate Mode
During normal operation, CS1610/11/12/13 is in Dimmer
Validate Mode. This instructs the dimmer detection circuit to
periodically validate that the IC is executing the correct
algorithm for the attached dimmer. The dimmer detection
algorithm periodically verifies the IC operating state as a
protection against incorrect detection. As additional protection,
the output of the dimmer detection algorithm is low-pass filtered
to prevent noise or transient events from changing the IC’s
operating mode. The IC will return to Dimmer Learn Mode when
it has determined that the wrong algorithm is being executed.
5.3.3
No-dimmer Mode
Upon detection that the line is not phase cut with a dimmer, the
CS1610, CS1610-01, and CS1611/12/13 operates in Nodimmer Mode, where it provides a power factor that is in excess
of 0.9. The CS1610-01 and CS1611/12/13 accomplishes this
by boosting in CRM and DCM mode. The CS1610 boosts in
CRM mode only. The peak current is modulated to provide link
regulation. The CS1610/11/12/13 alternates between two
settings of peak current. To regulate the boost output voltage,
the device uses a peak current set by the RIPK resistor. The time
that this current is used is determined by an internal
compensation loop to regulate the boost output voltage. The
internal algorithm will reduce the peak current of the boost stage
to maintain output voltage regulation and obtain the desired
power factor.
5.3.4
Leading-edge Mode
In Leading-edge Mode, the CS1610/11/12/13 regulates the
link voltage while maintaining the dimmer phase angle. To
accomplish this, the CS1610/11/12/13 uses CCM boosting
with dimmer attach current as the initial peak current on the
initial firing event of the dimmer. After gaining control of the
incoming current, the CS1610/11/12/13 transitions to a CRM
boost algorithm to regulate the link voltage. The
CS1610/11/12/13 periodically executes a probe event on the
incoming waveform. The information from the probe event is
beneficial to maintaining proper operation with the dimmer
circuitry.
5.3.5
Trailing-edge Mode
In Trailing-edge Mode, the CS1610/11/12/13 determines its
operation based on the falling edge of the input voltage
waveform. To allow the dimmer to operate properly, the
CS1610/11/12/13 must charge the capacitor in the dimmer on
the falling edge of the input voltage. To accomplish this, the
CS1610/11/12/13 always executes the boost algorithm on this
falling edge. To ensure maximum compatibility with dimmer
components, the device boosts during this falling edge event
using a peak current that must meet a minimum value. In
Trailing-edge Mode, only CRM boosting is used.
DS929F5
CS1610/11/12/13
5.4 Boost Stage
The high-voltage FET in the source-follower startup circuit is
source-switched by a variable current source on the SOURCE
pin to operate a boost circuit. Peak FET switching current is
set with an external resistor on pin IPK.
VB S T
R8
IB S TOUT
RB S T
In No-Dimmer Mode, the boost stage begins operating when
the start threshold is reached during each rectified half line-cycle and is disabled at the nominal boost output voltage. The
peak FET switching current determines the percentage of the
rectified input voltage conduction angle over which the boost
stage will operate. The control algorithm adjusts the peak FET
switching current to maximize the operating time of the boost
stage, thus improving the input power factor.
Figure 9. BSTOUT Input Pin Model
When operating in Leading-edge Dimmer Mode, the boost
stage ensures the hold current requirement of the dimmer is
met from the initiation of each half-line dimmer conduction
cycle until the peak of the rectified input voltage. Trailing-edge
Dimmer Mode boost stage ensures that the trailing-edge is
exposed at the correct time with the correct current.
Resistor RBST sets the feedback current at the nominal boost
output voltage. For the CS1611/13, RBST is calculated as
shown in Equation 3:

Maximum Peak Current

A current proportional to the boost output voltage, VBST, is

Boost Auxiliary Winding
The boost auxiliary winding is used for zero-current detection
(ZCD). The voltage on the auxiliary winding is sensed through
the BSTAUX pin of the IC. It is also used to deliver current
during steady-state operation, as mentioned in section 5.2
Startup Circuit on page 8.

Boost Overvoltage Protection
5.5.1
Clamp Overpower Protection
The CS1610/11/12/13 supports boost overvoltage protection
(BOP) to protect the bulk capacitor C8 (see Figure 12. Flyback
Model). If the boost output voltage exceeds the overvoltage
protection thresholds of 249V for a 120V system, or 448V for
a 230V system, a BOP fault signal is generated. The control
logic continuously averages this BOP fault signal, and if at any
point in time the average exceeds a set event threshold, the
boost stage is disabled. The BOP fault averaging algorithm
sets the event threshold such that the boost output voltage is
never allowed to stay above the BOP threshold for more than
1.6ms.
The CS1610/11/12/13 clamp overpower protection (COP)
control logic averages the ‘ON’ time of the clamp circuit. If the
output of the averaging logic exceeds 49%, a COP event is
actuated, disabling the boost and second stages. The clamp
circuitry is turned off during the fault event. The ‘ON’ time
averaging algorithm sets the COP threshold such that the
clamp circuit cannot be continuously ‘ON’ for more than
13.8ms.
During a boost overvoltage protection event, the second stage
is kept enabled, and its dim input is railed to full scale. This
allows the second stage to dissipate the stored energy on the
bulk capacitor (C8) quickly, bringing down the boost output
voltage to a safe value. A visible flash on the LED might
appear, indicating that an overvoltage event has occurred.
When the boost output voltage drops to 195V for a 120V
application or 368V for a 230V application, the boost stage is
enabled, and the system returns to normal operation.
When operating with a dimmer, the dimming signal is
extracted in the time domain and is proportional to the
conduction angle of the dimmer. A control variable is passed
to the quasi-resonant second stage to achieve 2% to 100%
output currents.
5.5 Voltage Clamp Circuit
To keep dimmers conducting and prevent them from misfiring,
a minimum power needs to be delivered from the dimmer to
the load. This power is nominally around 2W for 230V and
120 V TRIAC dimmers. At low dim angles (< 90°), this excess
power cannot be converted into light by the second output
stage due to the dim mapping at light loads. The output
voltage of the boost stage (VBST) can rise above the safe
operating voltage of the primary-side bulk capacitor (C6).
The CS1610/11/12/13 provides active clamp circuitry on the
CLAMP pin, as shown in Figure 11.
5.6 Dimming Signal Extraction and the Dim
Mapping Algorithm
5.7 Quasi-resonant Second Stage
The second stage is a quasi-resonant current-regulated DCDC Converter capable of flyback or buck operation, delivering
the highest possible efficiency at a constant current while
minimizing line frequency ripple. Primary-side control is used
to simplify system design and reduce system cost and
complexity.

A PWM control loop ensures that the voltage on VBST (the
boost output) does not exceed 227 V for 120VAC applications
or 424 V for 230VAC applications. This control turns on the
BJT of the voltage clamp circuit, allowing the clamp circuit to
sink current through the load resistor, preventing VBST from
exceeding the maximum safe voltage.

The FBGAIN input is set using an external resistor, RFBGAIN .
Resistor RFBGAIN must be selected to ensure that the
switching period Ttotal is greater than the resonant switching
period Tcritical at maximum output power. See Equation 5:
T total   T critical = T 1 + T 2 

Figure 13. Buck Model
The digital buck algorithm ensures monotonic dimming from
2% to 100% of the dimming range with a linear relationship
between the dimming signal and the LED current.
Quasi-resonant operation is achieved by detecting second
stage inductor demagnetization via an auxiliary winding. The
digital control algorithm rejects line-frequency ripple created
on the second stage input by the front-end boost stage,
resulting in the highest possible LED efficiency and long LED
life.
5.7.1
The second stage requires three inputs and generates one
key output. The FBSENSE input is used to sense the current
in the second stage inductor. When the current reaches a
certain threshold, the gate drive turns off (output on pin GD).
The sensed current and the FBGAIN input are used to
determine the switching period Ttotal . The zero-current detect
input on pin FBAUX is used to determine the demagnetization
period T2 . The controller then uses the time Ttotal to determine
gate turn-on time.
Auxiliary Winding Configuration
[Eq.5]
where,
Tcritical = resonant switching period at max power
T1 = gate turn-on time
T2 = demagnetization time
The switching period Ttotal is computed for flyback topology
using Equation 6:

[Eq.6]
where,
 = dimming factor, proportional to the duty cycle of the
dimmer, between 0 and 1
IPK(FB) = transformer primary winding current
FBgain = Ttotal /T2; a constant, computed at full load
The auxiliary winding is also used for zero-current
detection (ZCD) and overvoltage protection (OVP). The
auxiliary winding is sensed through the FBAUX pin of the IC.
5.7.2
Control Parameters
The second stage control parameters assure:
• Line Regulation — The LED current remains constant
despite a ±10% AC line voltage variation.
• Effect of Variation in Transformer Magnetizing
Inductance — The LED current remains constant over
a ±20% variation in magnetizing inductance.

using Equation 7:

[Eq.7]
where,

IPK(FB) = transformer primary winding current
FBgain = Ttotal /(T1 + T2); a constant, computed at full load
An appropriate value for RFBGAIN needs to be selected to
provide the correct FBgain. Resistor RFBGAIN is calculated
using the formula shown in Equation 8:
6250
R FBGAIN = ----------------------------------------- FB gain  2  – 1
[Eq.8]
The value of FBgain also has a bearing on the linearity of the
dimming factor versus the LED current curve and must be
chosen using Application Note AN364: CS1610/11 Design
Guide.
5.7.3
Output Open Circuit Protection
Output open circuit protection and output overvoltage
protection (OVP) is implemented by monitoring the output
voltage through the transformer auxiliary winding. If the
voltage on the FBAUX pin exceeds a threshold (VOVP(th)) of
1.25V, a fault condition occurs. The IC output is disabled and
the controller attempts to restart after one second.
5.7.4
Overcurrent Protection (OCP)
Overcurrent protection is implemented by monitoring the
voltage across the second stage sense resistor. If this voltage
exceeds a threshold (VOCP(th)) of 1.69V, a fault condition
occurs. The IC output is disabled and the controller attempts
to restart after one second.
5.7.5
Open Loop Protection (OLP)
Both open loop protection and protection against a short of the
second stage sense resistor are implemented by monitoring
the voltage across the resistor. If the voltage on pin FBSENSE
does not reach the protection threshold (VOLP(th)) of 200mV,
the IC output is disabled and the controller attempts to restart
after one second.
5.8
Overtemperature Protection
The CS1610/11/12/13 incorporates both internal overtemperature protection (iOTP) and the ability to connect an external
overtemperature sense circuit for IC protection. Typically, a
NTC thermistor is used.
5.8.1
Internal Overtemperature Protection
Internal overtemperature protection (iOTP) is activated, and
switching is disabled when the die temperature of the devices
exceeds 135°C. There is a hysteresis of about 14°C before
resuming normal operation.
12
5.8.2
External Overtemperature Protection
The external overtemperature protection (eOTP) pin is used to
implement overtemperature protection using an external
negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor. The total
resistance on the eOTP pin is converted to an 8-bit digital
‘CODE’ (which gives an indication of the temperature) using a
digital feedback loop, which adjusts the current (ICONNECT)
into the NTC and series resistor (RS) to maintain a constant
reference voltage of 1.25V (VCONNECT(th)). Figure 14
illustrates the functional block diagram when connecting an
optional external NTC temperature sensor to the eOTP circuit.

Current ICONNECT is generated from an 8-bit controlled current

I CONNECT = ------------------------------------R
[Eq.9]
When the loop is in equilibrium, the voltage on the eOTP pin
fluctuates around VCONNECT(th). The digital ‘CODE’ output by
the ADC is used to generate ICONNECT. In normal operating
mode, the ICONNECT current is updated once every seventh
half line-cycle by a single ± LSB step. See Equation 10:

The tracking range of this resistance ADC is approximately
15.5k to 4M. The series resistor RS is used to adjust the
resistance of the NTC to fall within this ADC tracking range so
that the entire 8-bit dynamic range of the ADC is well used. A
14k (±1% tolerance) series resistor is required to allow
measurements of up to 130°C to be within the eOTP tracking
range when a 100k NTC with a Beta of 4334 is used. The
eOTP tracking circuit is designed to function accurately with
external capacitance up to 470pF. A higher 8-bit code output
reflects a lower resistance and hence a higher external
temperature.
DS929F5
CS1610/11/12/13
When exiting reset, the chip enters startup and the ADC
quickly (<5ms) tracks the external temperature to check if it is
below the 110°C reference code before the boost and second
stages are powered up. If this check fails, the chip will wait
until this condition becomes true before initializing the rest of
the system.
For external overtemperature protection, a second low-pass
filter with a time constant of two minutes filters the ADC output
and uses it to scale down the internal dim level of the system
(and hence the LED current, ILED) if the temperature exceeds
95 °C (see Figure 15). The large time constant for this filter
ensures that the dim scaling does not happen spontaneously
and is not noticeable (suppress spurious glitches). The ILED
starts reducing when RNTC ~ 6.3k (assuming a 14k1%
tolerance, series resistor), which corresponds to a
DS929F5
temperature of 95°C for a 100k NTC (100k at 25°C). The
ILED current is scaled until the NTC value reaches 2.5k
(125°C). The CS1610/11/12/13 uses this calculated value to
scale the output LED current, ILED, as shown in Figure 15.
Current (ILED, Nom.)
The ADC output code is filtered to suppress noise and
compared against a reference code that corresponds to
125/130°C. If the temperature exceeds this threshold, the
chip enters an external overtemperature state and shuts
down. This is not a latched protection state, and the ADC
keeps tracking the temperature in this state in order to clear
the fault state once the temperature drops below 110°C.

Beyond this temperature, the IC shuts down using the
mechanism discussed above. If the external overtemperature
protection feature is not required, connect the eOTP pin to
GND using a 50k-to-500k resistor to disable the eOTP
feature.
