ONSEMI NCL30002

NCL30002
Power Factor Corrected
Buck LED Driver
The NCL30002 is a switch mode power supply controller intended
for low to medium power single stage power factor (PF) corrected
LED Drivers. The device operates as a critical conduction mode
(CrM) buck controller to regulate LED current at a high power factor
for a specific line voltage range. The current limit threshold is tightly
trimmed allowing open loop control techniques to reduce parts count
while maintaining accurate current regulation and high power factor.
CrM operation is particularly suited for LED applications as very high
efficiency can be achieved even at low power levels. These are
important in LED lighting to comply with regulatory requirements and
meet overall system luminous efficacy requirements. In CrM, the
switching frequency will vary with line and load. Switching losses are
low as recovery losses in the output rectifier are negligible since the
current goes to zero prior to reactivating the main MOSFET switch.
The device features a programmable on time limiter, zero current
detect sense block, gate driver, trans−conductance error amplifier as
well as all PWM control circuitry and protection functions required to
implement a CrM switch mode power supply. Moreover, for high
efficiency, the device features low startup current enabling fast, low
loss charging of the VCC capacitor. The current sense protection
threshold has been set at 485 mV to minimize power dissipation in the
external sense resistor. To support the environmental operation range
of Solid State Lighting, the device is specified across a wide junction
temperature range of −40°C to 125°C.

Table 1. PIN FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
Pin
Name
Function
1
MFP
The multi−function pin is connected to the internal error amplifier. By pulling this pin below the Vuvp threshold, the
controller is disabled. In addition, this pin also has an over voltage comparator which will disable the controller in the
event of a fault.
2
COMP
The COMP pin is the output of the internal error amplifier. A compensation network connected between this pin and
ground sets the loop bandwidth.
3
Ct
The Ct pin sources a regulated current to charge an external timing capacitor. The PWM circuit controls the power
switch on time by comparing the Ct voltage to an internal voltage derived from VControl. The CT pin discharges the
external timing capacitor at the end of the on time cycle.
4
CS
The CS input threshold is precisely trimmed to accurately sense the instantaneous switch current in the external
MOSFET. This signal is conditioned by an internal leading edge blanking circuit. The current limit threshold is tightly
trimmed for precise peak current control.
5
ZCD
The voltage of an auxiliary zero current detection winding is sensed at this pin. When the ZCD control block circuit
detects that the winding current has gone to zero, a control signal is sent to the gate drive block to turn on the
external MOSFET.
6
GND
This is the analog ground for the device. All bypassing components should be connected to the GND pin with a short
trace length.
7
DRV
The high current capability of the totem pole gate drive (+0.5/−0.8 A) makes it suitable to effectively drive high gate
charge power MOSFETs. The driver stage provides both passive and active pull down circuits that force the output to
a voltage less than the turn−on threshold voltage of the power MOSFET when VCC(on) is not reached.
8
VCC
This pin is the positive supply of the controller. The circuit starts to operate when VCC exceeds VCC(on), nominally
12 V and turns off when VCC goes below VCC(off), typically 9.5 V. After startup, the operating range is 10.2 V up to
20 V.

Figure 2. Simplified PFC Buck Application
Overview
Buck switching on the low side eliminates a floating gate
drive but references the LED to the HV rail. Buck converters
only produce output when the input voltage exceeds the load
voltage. Consequently, the input current goes to zero near
the zero crossing of the line. The exact phase angle of this
event depends on the LED string voltage and the line
voltage. Unlike the boost PFC, the buck PFC has increased
distortion near the zero crossing. However even with cross
over distortion, high power factor and acceptable harmonics
can be achieved.
Figure 2 illustrates the basic NCL30002 architecture for
a non-isolated low power high power factor LED driver. One
of the notable features of this architecture is the open loop
control. Notice that there is no direct measurement of the
LED current. Tight peak current control coupled with line
feed-forward compensation to vary the on-time allows for
accurate LED drive current. Fortunately in the vast majority
of LED bulb and luminaire applications, the LED forward
voltage range is well bounded and the line voltage may be
limited to one operating range. This is a huge advantage
which makes the simplicity of open loop control possible.

NCL30002
THEORY OF OPERATION
power factor is 0.7. So a certain amount of distortion can be
accepted while maintaining high power factor. This buck
topology meets the requirements for PF greater than 0.9 and
regulate LED current in a single power stage. Unlike the
boost converter, the NCL30002 buck controller operates in
several different modes over the line cycle.
High power factor, high efficiency, and small size are key
parameters for LED drivers in the incandescent replacement
market. The NCL30002 has all the features required to
accomplish that is in a compact SOIC-8 package. Power
factor is broadly defined as:
PF +
P in(avg)
V in(rms) I in(rms)
Buck Modes
This differs from the classical definition where there is a
phase angle difference between the input voltage and
current. However, the underlying concept of optimizing
power delivery by minimizing line current is the same.
Ideally, current would be directly proportional to the voltage
which is the case when the load is a resistor. Offline power
converters are active devices which are not purely resistive,
capacitive, or inductive often drawing distorted current
waveforms from the power lines. This distortion reduces
power factor by increasing input RMS current.
Preregulators using boost converters are the most common
method to correcting the distortion and making the offline
power supply appear to be a resistor as far as the power line
is concerned. Their performance is excellent achieving
power factor greater than 0.99. Regrettably, this two stage
approach negatively impacts efficiency and board area.
Fortunately, power factors greater than 0.9 are acceptable in
the general lighting market and in some applications like US
Energystart Integral LED bulbs, the minimum acceptable
1. “Zero” Input Current (Iin=0) - Buck converters
cannot deliver power when Vin is less than Vout.
The “dead time” where no current flows around
the zero crossing is dependent on the line voltage
and the load voltage.
2. Constant On-Time (Ton = constant) - This is the
same as the boost converter. Constant Ton forces
the peak current to be proportional to the input
voltage which is key to improved PF.
3. Constant Peak Current (Ipeak = constant) – The
NCL30002 limits the peak inductor and thus the
LED current. In this region, the unique nature of
the CrM buck means that the average output
current is equal to half the peak current. Also the
off time is fixed is this mode since the peak current
and the output voltage are virtually constant.
In the example below (Figure 23) in spite of the distortion,
the power factor is 0.97. The corresponding pre-filtered
output current is shown in Figure 24.

Mode 2 ton = Constant

On Time Control
An output capacitor filters the output current in the LED
string. The dynamic LED resistance, line frequency, and the
size of the filter capacitance determine the exact LED ripple.
The NCL30002 operates as a CrM controller. The
controller draws very low currents while the Vcc filter
capacitor charges to the start-up threshold. Since CrM
operation is not clocked at a fixed frequency and depends on
the state of the power circuit to initiate a new switching
cycle, a kick start timer turns on the gate driver to start a new
cycle. The kick start timer will do this anytime the driver is
off for more than about 180 msec as long as none of the
protection circuits are disabling the gate driver output.
The NCL30002 (refer to the block diagram − Figure 1) is
composed of 4 key functional blocks along with protection
circuitry to ensure reliable operation of the controller.
• On−Time Control
• Zero Current Detection Control
• MOSFET Gate Driver
• Startup and VCC Management
The on−time control circuitry (Figure 25) consists of a
precision current source which charges up an external
capacitor (Ct) in a linear ramp. The voltage on Ct (after
removing an internal offset) is compared to an external
control voltage and the output of the comparator is used to
turn off the output driver thus terminating the switching
cycle. A signal from the driver is fed back to the on−time
control block to discharge the Ct capacitor thus preparing the
circuit for the start of the next switching cycle.
The state of Vcontrol is determined by the external
regulation loop. The range of on−time is determined by the
charging slope of the Ct capacitor and is clamped at 4.93 V
nominal. The Ct capacitor is sized to ensure that the required
on−time is reached at maximum output power and the
minimum input line voltage condition.

The off time is determined by the peak inductor current,
the inductance and the output voltage. In mode 2, the off time
is variable because the peak inductor current is not fixed.
However in mode 3, the off time is constant since the peak
current and the output voltage are both fixed. The auxiliary
winding used to provide bias to the NCL30002 is also used
to detect when the current has dropped to zero. This is
illustrated in Figure 26.

NCL30002
ZCD Detection Block
the ZCD input has a dual comparator input structure to arm
the latch when the ZCD detect voltage rises above 1.4 V
(nominal) thus setting the latch. When the voltage on ZCD
falls below 0.7 V (nominal) a zero current event is detected
and a signal is asserted which initiates the next switching
cycle. This is illustrated in Figure 27. The input of the ZCD
has an internal circuit which clamps the positive and
negative voltage excursions on this pin. The current into or
out of the ZCD pin must be limited to ±10 mA with an
external resistor.
A dedicated circuit block is necessary to implement the
zero current detection. The NCL30002 provides a separate
input pin to signal the controller to turn the power switch
back on just after inductor current reaches zero. When the
output winding current reaches zero the winding voltage
will reverse. Since all windings of the inductor reflect the
same voltage characteristic this voltage reversal appears on
the bias winding. Coupling the winding voltage to the ZCD
input of the NCL30002 allows the controller to start the next
switching cycle at the precise time. To avoid false triggering,

Figure 27. ZCD Operation
At startup, there is no energy in the ZCD winding and no
voltage signal to activate the ZCD comparators. To enable
the controller to start under these conditions, an internal
watchdog timer is provided which initiates a switching cycle
in the event that the output drive has been off for more than
180 ms (nominal).
The timer is deactivated only under an OVP or UVP fault
condition which will be discussed in the next section.

The dedicated CS pin of the NCL30002 senses the current

voltage of the CS pin exceeds VILIM, the internal comparator
will detect the event and turn off the MOSFET. The peak

MFP Input
The multi−function pin connects to the inverting terminal
of the transconductance amplifier, the undervoltage and
overvoltage protection comparators. This allows this pin to
perform several functions. To place the device in standby,
the MFP pin should be pulled below the Vuvp threshold. This
is illustrated in Figure 29. Additionally, raising the MFP pin
above Vovp will also suspend switching activity but not place
the controller in the standby mode. This can be used
implement overvoltage monitoring on the bias winding and
add an additional layer of fault protection.
(eq. 1)
To avoid false detection, the NCL30002 incorporates
leading edge blanking circuit (LEB) which masks the CS
signal for a nominal time of 190 ns. If required, an optional
RC filter can be added between Rsense and CS to provide
additional filtering. This is illustrated below.

Design Tool
The positive input of the transconductance amplifier is
connected to a 2.51 V (nominal) reference. A filtered line
feed-forward signal (see Figure 2) is connected to the
negative input of the error amplifier and used to control the
on-time of controller.
The NCL30002 implements a unique control method to
achieve high power and superior current regulation even
though the average current is not directly sensed. There are
a number of design tradeoffs that can be made between peak
switch current, inductor size, and desired power factor that
can impact the current regulation accuracy, efficiency, and
physical size. These tradeoffs can be made by adjusting the
amount of line feed forward applied, selecting the amount of
time where the controller is operating in mode 2 and 3, as
well as factoring in the LED forward voltage range. To
simplify the component selection process and allow the
designer to interactively make these tradeoffs,
ON Semiconductor has developed an EXCELt based
Design Guide which allows step-by-step analysis. This tool
is available at onsemi.com along with a supporting
application note that illustrates a complete design and
provides typical application performance.
VCC Management
The NCL30002 incorporates a supervisory circuitry to
manage the startup and shutdown of the circuit. By
managing the startup and keeping the initial startup current
at less than 35 mA, a startup resistor connected between the
rectified ac line and VCC charges the VCC capacitor to
VCC(on). Turn on of the device occurs when the startup
voltage has exceeded 12 V (nominal) when the internal
reference and switching logic are enabled. A UVLO
comparator with a hysteresis of 2.5 V nominal gives ample
time for the device to start switching and allow the bias from
the auxiliary winding to supply VCC.
