ZLED7x20 Family
High Current 40V LED Driver with Internal Switch
Brief Description
Benefits
The ZLED7x20 continuous-mode inductive stepdown converter family is part of our line of LEDcontrol ICs. It is designed for applications requiring
high brightness and high current. It can efficiently
drive a single LED or multiple series-connected
LEDs from a voltage input higher than the LED forward voltage: Vin = 6 to 40 VDC. It provides an
adjustable output current ≤1.2A, which is set via an
external resistor and controlled by the ZLED7x20’s
integrated high-side output current-sensing circuit
and high speed internal 40V power switch. An
external control signal, which can be a DC voltage,
PWM, or microcontroller-generated waveform, on
the ADJ pin can also be used to linearly adjust a
continuous output current or to control a gated output current.
 High efficiency: up to 98%
 Single pin on/off and brightness control using
DC voltage or PWM
 Very few external components needed for
operation
 Footprint compatible with our ZLED7000
depending on the application.
Available Support
 Evaluation Kit
Physical Characteristics
 Operating junction temperature: -40°C to 125°C
 Switching frequency: up to 1MHz
The output can be turned off by applying a voltage
lower than 0.2V to the ADJ pin, which puts the
ZLED7x20 in a low-current standby state.
ZLED7x20 Family Selection Matrix
The ZLED7x20 enables diverse industrial and
consumer lighting applications requiring high
driving currents, wide operating voltage range,
high efficiency, and variable brightness control. It
offers over-temperature and LED open-circuit protection. The ZLED7x20 can also minimize bill-ofmaterial costs because very few external components are required for most applications. Only a
resistor, a diode, an inductor, and three capacitors
are needed for a typical basic application.

Circuit Description
2.1
ZLED7x20 Overview
The ZLED7x20 is a continuous-mode inductive step-down converter LED driver for driving single or multiple
series-connected LEDs from a voltage input higher than the LED voltage (Vin = 6 to 40 VDC; see section 3.2.2 for
important details). The ZLED7x20 provides an adjustable output current (1.2A maximum for ZLED7020; 1.0A
maximum for ZLED7320; 0.75A maximum for ZLED7520; 0.35A maximum for ZLED7720), which is nominally set
via an external sense resistor Rs and controlled by the ZLED7x20’s integrated high-side output current-sensing
circuit and output switch. An external control signal (e.g., DC voltage, PWM waveform, or microprocessor signal)
on the ADJ pin can be used to linearly adjust the output for continuous, variable, or gated-output current. See
page 3 for a block diagram of the ZLED7x20.
The output can be turned off by applying a voltage ≤0.2V (typical) to the ADJ pin, which puts the ZLED7x20 in a
low-current standby state. See section 2.7 for a description of this shutdown mode.
Only a resistor, a diode, an inductor, and three capacitors are needed for a typical basic application. Refer to the
application circuits in section 3 for the location of the components referenced in the following sections.
2.2
Control of Output Current via External Sense Resistor Rs
External sense resistor Rs, which is connected between the VIN and ISENSE pins as shown in Figure 3.1, sets
IOUTnom, the nominal average output current. Equation (1) can be used to calculate the nominal output current,
which is the LX switch output current ILX if the ADJ pin is floating (VADJ = VREF =1.2V). See section 3.3.1 for
recommended values for Rs in a typical basic application and section 3.4 for layout guidelines for Rs. Note that
the peak IOUTnom including ripple (see section 3.3.5) must not exceed the maximum current specifications (1.3.10).

Control of Output Current via an External DC Control Voltage on the ADJ Pin
An external DC voltage (VADJ) input on the ADJ pin can control brightness by setting the output current to a value
below the nominal average current IOUTnom determined by RS. With this method, the output current can be adjusted
from 25% to 100% of IOUTnom. The DC voltage source must be capable of driving the ADJ pin’s input impedance
RADJ (500kΩ ± approximately 25%; internal pull-up resistor to VREF). See Figure 3.2 for a typical application circuit.
The nominal average output current IOUTdc resulting from an external DC control voltage VADJ can be calculated via
equation (2) where 0.3V≤ VADJ ≤1.2V:

High Current 40V LED Driver with Internal Switch
Brightness is 100% if VADJ = VREF, the internal reference voltage, which can be measured on the ADJ pin when it is
floating (1.2V, typical). If VADJ ≥ 1.2V, the current is automatically clamped at 100% brightness.
Note: Absolute maximum VADJ= 6V.
2.4
Additional Requirements if the VIN Input Voltage has a High Slew Rate
The analog dimming input ADJ can be used for implementing a soft-start function of the LEDs by connecting a
capacitor to ground. The soft-start time constant is determined by the product of the internal pull-up resistor
(500k typical) and the external capacitor.
Important: If the supply voltage VIN might have a high slew rate (> 1V/µs) when powered on, a resistor that is
 1k must be placed in series with the capacitor to guarantee correct power-on timing for the ZLED7x20 and
proper loading of the current sense trimming data into the appropriate register. This resistor is not necessary if the
capacitor is  470pF.
If the ADJ pin is controlled from an external voltage source or PWM signal, a series resistor is strongly
recommended for noise immunity reasons and to avoid bulk current injection.
2.5
Control of Output Current via a PWM Signal on the ADJ Pin
An external pulse width modulation (PWM) control signal input on the ADJ pin can be used for brightness or gated
on/off control of the output current by driving the output current to a value below the nominal average current
determined by RS. See Figure 3.3 for a typical application circuit. The PWM or gated on/off control signal can be
within the range of 0 to 5 V. The logic high level must be higher than 1.2V and the logic low level must be below
0.2V. It must be capable of driving the ADJ pin’s input impedance RADJ (approximately 500kΩ; internal pull-up
resistor to VREF).
2.6
Control of Output Current via a Microcontroller Signal on the ADJ Pin
An external control signal from the open drain output of a microcontroller can provide on/off or PWM brightness
control by driving the ADJ pin. See Figure 3.4 for a typical application circuit. Diode D2 and resistor R1 shown in
Figure 3.4 suppress any negative high-amplitude spikes on the ADJ input due to the drain-source capacitance of
the FET in the microcontroller’s output. Negative spikes on the ADJ input could cause output current errors or
unintended ZLED7x20 operation. The signal input to the ADJ pin must be capable of driving the ADJ pin’s input
impedance RADJ (approximately 500kΩ; internal pull-up resistor to VREF).
2.7
Shutdown Mode
If the ADJ pin voltage VADJ is ≤ VADJoff (0.2V ± 0.05V), the supply current and output on the LX pin are quiescent at
a low standby level (IINQoff = 120μA nominal). Raising the ADJ pin voltage so that VADJ ≥ VADJion (0.25V ± 0.05V)
will switch the output back to full operational mode.

2.8.1
ZLED7x20 Protection Features
Thermal Shut-down Protection
The ZLED7x20 automatically protects itself from damage due to over-temperature conditions. If the ZLED7x20’s
temperature exceeds the thermal shutdown threshold (T SD = 150°C, typical), the ZLED7x20 will shut down. To
avoid erratic ZLED7x20 operation, a 20K hysteresis (TSD-HYS) is applied that prevents it from returning to operation
until its temperature falls below the hysteresis threshold (T SD - TSD-HYS). Also refer to section 3.2 for additional
thermal considerations.
2.8.2
LED Open Load Protection
As a step-down converter, the ZLED7x20 has inherent open-load circuit protection. Since the L1 inductor is
connected in series with the LED string, the current flow is interrupted if the load is open and the LX output of the
ZLED7x20 will not be damaged. This provides an advantage over other products such as boost converters, for
which the internal switch can be damaged by back EMF forcing the drain above its breakdown voltage.

3.2
Thermal Considerations for Application Design
3.2.1
Temperature Effects of Load, Layout, and Component Selection
Do not exceed the package power dissipation limits by driving high load currents or by operating the chip at high
ambient temperatures. Power dissipation also increases if the efficiency of the circuit is low as could result from
selecting the wrong coil or from excessive parasitic output capacitance on the switch output. See the layout
guidelines in section 3.4.
3.2.2
Temperature Effects of Low Supply Voltage VIN
Until the supply input voltage on the VIN pin has risen above the internally-set startup threshold, the ZLED7x20’s
internal regulator disables the drive to the internal power MOSFET output switch. Above this threshold, the
MOSFET on-resistance is low enough for the chip to start to operate; however, if the supply voltage remains
below the specified minimum (6V), the duty cycle of the output switch will be high and the ZLED7x20 power
dissipation will be at a maximum. Avoid operating the ZLED7x20 under such conditions to reduce the risk of
damage due to exceeding the maximum die temperature. When driving multiple LEDs, their combined forward
voltage drop is typically high enough to prevent the chip from switching when VIN is below 6V, so there is less risk
of thermal damage.
3.3
External Component Selection
Note: Also see section 3.4 for layout guidelines for the following external components.
3.3.1
Sense Resistor Rs
Table 3.1 gives values for Rs under normal operating conditions in the typical application shown in Figure 3.1.
These values assume that the ADJ pin is floating and at the nominal voltage of V REF=1.2V.
Note: Under the conditions given in Table 3.1, in order to maintain the switch current below the maximum value
specified in section 1, 0.082Ω is the minimum value for Rs for the ZLED7020, 0.1Ω for the ZLED7320, 0.13Ω for
the ZLED7520 and 0.27Ω for the ZLED7720. It is possible to use different values of Rs if the ADJ pin is driven
from an external voltage.
To ensure stable output current, use a 1% accuracy resistor with adequate power tolerance and a good
temperature characteristic for Rs.

Inductor L1
The recommended range for the L1 inductor is 33μH to 220μH. Select the inductor value for L1 as needed to
ensure that switch on/off times are optimized across the load current and supply voltage ranges. If the application
requires a high supply voltage and low output current, inductance values at the high end of this range are recommended to minimize errors due to switching delays, which can reduce efficiency and increase ripple on the output.
Also see section 3.4 for layout considerations for L1. Equations (3) and (4) can be used to calculate tON and tOFF.

The inductance value has an equivalent effect on tON and tOFF and therefore affects the switching frequency. For
the same reason, the inductance has no influence on the duty cycle, for which the relationship of the summed
LED forward voltages n * VF to the input voltage VIN is a reasonable approximation. Because the input voltage is a
factor in the on time, variations in the input voltage affect the switching frequency and duty cycle.
To achieve optimum performance, duty cycles close to 0.5 at the nominal average supply voltage are preferable
for improving the temperature stability of the output current.

For the L1 inductor, use a coil with a continuous current rating higher than the required mean output current and a
saturation current that exceeds the peak output current by 30% to 50% for robustness against transient conditions; e.g., during start-up.
3.3.3
Bypass Capacitor C1
The bypass capacitor C1 has two functions: maintaining operating voltage and bypassing the current ripple of the
switching converter. In general low ESR capacitors must be used.
If the circuit is supplied by rectified line voltage, C1 must provide enough charge to maintain the ZLED7x20’s
minimum operating voltage as well as the forward voltage of the LED string to keep the application working even
if the rectified supply voltage periodically drops below these values. A rough estimate for the minimum capacity
needed can be calculated with equation (9).

Example: For an application with 3 LEDs with 3.2V forward voltage each driven at 0.33A and supplied with
rectified 24VAC, a minimum bypass capacitor C1 of 220μF or 330μF might be adequate. Compared to the
calculation, a safety margin of about 50% must be added to consider temperature effects and aging.

A second function of C1 is to bypass the current ripple of the switching converter and thus prevent it from
disturbing a stable IC supply or backlash on the power supply circuit. For this reason, even in DC-supplied
applications, the use of an adequate C1 might be useful. The defining parameters are now as shown in
equation (11):

Example: For an application of 3 LEDs driven at 0.33A and supplied with 24VDC, a maximum ripple of 10% is
allowed. The ZLED7x20 is operated at 150kHz with a duty cycle of 0.4 leading to an on time of 2.67μs. As
calculated in equation 12, a capacitor C1 of 470nF may be adequate, again including a safety margin of about
50%.

To achieve maximum stability over temperature and voltage, an X7R, X5R, or better dielectric is recommended
while Y5V must be avoided.
3.3.4
De-bouncing Capacitor C2
External capacitor C2 minimizes ground bounce during switching of the internal MOSFET output switch. Ground
bounce is typically caused by parasitic inductance and resistance due to the distance between the grounds for the
power supply and the ZLED7x20 GND pin. Use a 0.1μF, X7R ceramic capacitor to ground for C2.

3.3.5
Capacitor C3 for Reducing Output Ripple
If required, the C3 can be used to reduce peak-to-peak ripple current in the LED string. Low ESR capacitors
should be used because the efficiency of C3 largely depends on its ESR and the dynamic resistance of the LEDs.
For an increased number of LEDs, using the same capacitor will be more effective. Lower ripple can be achieved
with higher capacitor values, but this will increase start-up delay by reducing the slope of the LED voltage as well
as cause increased current during converter start-up. The capacitor will not affect operating frequency or efficiency. For a simulation or bench optimization, C3 values of a few μF are an applicable starting point for the given
configuration. Ripple current reduction is approximately proportional to the value of C3.
3.3.6
Diode D1
The flyback diode D1 must have a continuous current rating greater than the maximum output load current and a
peak current rating higher than the peak L1 coil current. Important: Use a low-capacitance, fast Schottky diode
that has low reverse leakage at the maximum operating temperature and maximum operating voltage for the
application to avoid excess power dissipation and optimize performance and efficiency. For silicon diodes, there is
a concern that the higher forward voltage and increased overshoot from reverse recovery time could increase the
peak LX pin voltage (VLX). The total voltage VLX (including ripple voltage) must not be >50V.
3.4
Application Circuit Layout Requirements
The following guidelines are strongly recommended when laying out application circuits:
 Important: Locate the L1 inductor and the C1 input decoupling capacitor as close as possible to the
ZLED7x20 to minimize parasitic inductance and resistance, which can compromise efficiency. Use low
resistance connections from L1 to the LX and VIN pins.
 All circuit board traces to the LX pin must be as short as possible because it is a high-speed switching
node.
 If the ADJ pin floats, all circuit board traces to the ADJ pin must be as short as possible to reduce noise
pickup.
 Do not lay out high-voltage traces near the ADJ pin because if the board is contaminated, leakage current
can affect the ADJ pin voltage and cause unintended output current. To further reduce this risk, use a
ground ring around the ADJ pin. (Also see section 2.8 regarding the ZLED7x20’s protection circuitry for
preventing excessive output current.)
 To minimize ground bounce, locate the 0.1μF external capacitor C2 as close as possible to the VIN pin and
solder the ZLED7x20’s GND pin directly to the ground plane. (Also, see section 3.3.4 regarding ground
bounce.)
 Because Rs is typically a low value resistor, it is important to consider the resistance of the traces in series
with RS as part of the total current sense resistance. Use traces that are as short and wide as possible to
minimize this effect.
 The ZLED7x20’s thermal pad must be grounded.
