AP1684
AC/DC, HIGH PF, HIGH EFFICIENCY LED DRIVER CONTROLLER
Description
Pin Assignments
The AP1684 is a high performance AC/DC power factor corrected
LED driver controller which is driving high voltage bipolar transistor.
The device uses Pulse Frequency Modulation (PFM) technology to
regulate output current while achieving high power factor and low
THD. It operates as a boundary condition mode (BCM) buck controller
which is good for EMI.
(Top View)
The AP1684 provides accurate constant current (CC) regulation while
removing the opto-coupler and secondary control circuitry. It also
eliminates the need of loop compensation circuitry while maintaining
stability. It can meet the requirement of IEC6100-3-2 harmonic
standard.

AP1684
Application Information
The AP1684 is designed for single voltage application, and it features high power factor correction (PFC), low total harmonic distortion (THD), low
BOM cost and good EMI performance. The device can be widely used in non-dimmable LED application such as GU10, bulb lamps, down lamp,
etc. The AP1684 adopts constant on time control method within one AC cycle to achieve the high power factor and low THD. The control scheme
is very simple, the power factor correction effectiveness is obvious, and the constant current control is also good enough.

Design Parameters
Setting the Current Sense Resistor R8
As the AP1684 adopts constant on time control method, the current of the inductance will follow the input voltage to get a sinusoidal wave. The
current sense pin CS of the AP1684 will sense the peak current of the inductance by sensing the voltage dropped on the current sense resistor R8,
and the constant current control is realized by controlling the peak current. In buck structure, when the Vo is higher than Vin, no energy will be
transferred from input to output which is called dead zone, and considering the dead zone of buck structure, the output current can be calculated
as below:
I o _ mean  k 
1 Vcs _ ref

 R8
Where,
Vcs_ref is the reference of the current sense, and the typical value is 1V.
K is the current modification coefficient, and the value of k is approximate to be 0.7.
So, the current sense resistor R8 is determined:
R8  k 
V cs _ ref
  I o _ mean
Transformer Selection (T1)
The non-isolated buck circuit in Figure 1 is usually selected, and the system is operating at boundary conduction mode. The system’s operating
frequency does not keep constant, and considering the limit of the BJT’s operating frequency, the minimum switching frequency at the crest is set
as fmin, and then the buck inductance value L can be got:
L
( 2  Vin _ rms  Vo )  R8  Vo
Vcs _ ref  2  Vin _ rms  f m in
Where,
Vo is the output voltage.
Vin_rms is the RMS value of the input voltage.

AP1684
Application Information (Cont.)
The next step is determining the transformer’s winding turns number, the worst case operation condition of transformer is at the peak voltage area
of sine waveform input voltage where the current of across the inductance is the maximum value. The transformer design should be based on the
worst case operation condition to guarantee that the transformer is not saturated. According to Ferrari's law of electromagnetic induction, the
winding turns number of the buck inductance NL is:
NL 
L  I pk
Ae  Bm

L Vcs _ ref
Ae  Bm  R8
Where,
Ae is the core effective area.
Bm is the maximum magnetic flux density.
The auxiliary winding is power supply for VCC, the winding turns number Naux is:
N aux  N L 
Vcc
Vo  V d
Where,
Vcc is the power supply voltage for IC from auxiliary winding.
Vd is the voltage drop of the freewheel diode.
Setting the Initial On Time
As the AP1684 adopts constant on-time control method, the AP1684 will generate an initial on time to start a working cycle. If the initial on time is
longer than the rated on time, overshoot will happen which could damage the LED. And a good system performance does not permit overshoot, so
the appropriate initial on time should be guaranteed. And initial on time is determined by resister R1 shown in Figure 1.
According to initial on time generation mechanism, the ton_initial is
ton _ initial  80  R11012 s
To guarantee the system with no overshoot phenomenon, the resistor is selected
R1 
1.25  L
R8  2U in _ rms _ max
 1010 
The system operation mode is determined by R2, to guarantee the system working at BCM mode, resistance R2 is generally selected as R2≤R1.
Valley on Control Method
The valley on function can provide low turn-on switching losses for buck converter. The voltage across the collector and emitter of the BJT is
reflected by the auxiliary winding of the buck transformer. The voltage is sensed by the FB pin.

Application Information (Cont.)
According to Figure 2, when the falling edge of 0.1V is sensed by the FB pin, the AP1684 will see the tOFF time is over and delay 1µs to start a
new operating cycle. In this way we can realize valley on function.

AP1684
Figure 3. OVP Circuit
The output voltage is sensed by the auxiliary winding voltage of the buck transformer, the VCC pin and FB pin provide over voltage protection
function. When the output is open or large transient happens, the output voltage will exceed the rated value. When the voltage of VCC cap exceeds
Vcc_ovp or VFB_CV, the over voltage is triggered and the IC will discharge VCC. When the VCC is below the UVLO threshold voltage, the IC will start
a new work cycle and the VCC cap is charged again by start resistance. If the over voltage condition still exists, the system will work in hiccup
mode.
Output Short Protection
When the output is shorted, the output voltage will be clamped at 0. At this condition, V CC will drop down without auxiliary winding for power supply.
And the VCC will drop to UVLO threshold voltage, the IC will shut down and restart a new operating cycle, and the VCC is charged by startup
resistance. When the VCC is higher than Vcc_start voltage, the IC will output a bunch of pulse to control BJT on and off, which will consume the
energy stored in the VCC cap, because of no VCC supply from the auxiliary winding, the VCC will drop down to VCC UVLO threshold voltage again. If
output short condition still exists, the system will operate in hiccup mode.
Over Temperature Protection
The AP1684 has two kinds of over temperature protection processes. First, the system is operating normally, the ambient temperature is changed
to +170°C suddenly, the IC will trigger over temperature protection which leads to a latch work mode. Second, if the system starts, the over
temperature protection will be triggered when the ambient temperature is higher than +150°C. So the AP1684 can startup successfully when the
ambient temperature is less than +150°C.
Recommended Applications
The AP1684 is designed to drive BJT as the power switch, because of the BJT’s current limit, the maximum output current is limited. In buck
structure, the output voltage has some limitation because of the dead zone. The device is designed for single voltage application, so the
recommended application is given in the table below.
