Dimmable Quasi-Resonant
Primary Side Current-Mode
Controller for LED TV
Backlight
The NCP1370 is a PWM current mode controller targeting isolated
flyback and non−isolated constant current topologies. The controller
operates in a quasi−resonant mode to provide high efficiency. Thanks
to a novel control method, the device is able to precisely regulate a
constant LED current from the primary side. This removes the need
for secondary side feedback circuitry, biasing and an opto−coupler.
The device is highly integrated with a minimum number of external
components. A robust suite of safety protection is built in to simplify
the design. This device supports analog/digital dimming and both
modes can be combined to enhance dimming precision. The NCP1370
has a programmable peak current limit to optimize design
compatibility over a wide range of applications. The controller
features a standby mode with reduced current consumption.

NCP1370
Application Information
The NCP1370 is a LED driver for flyback and
non−isolated buck−boost / SEPIC converters. It implements
a current−mode architecture quasi−resonant architecture to
prevent valley−jumping instability. A proprietary circuitry
ensures accurate regulation of the output current without the
need of a secondary side feedback. The circuit features
powerful protections to ensure a robust LED driver design
without the need of extra external components or
overdesign.
• Quasi−Resonance Current−Mode Operation:
implementing quasi−resonance operation in peak
current−mode control, the NCP1370 optimizes the
efficiency by switching in the valley of the MOSFET
drain−source voltage. Thanks to smart control
algorithm, the controller locks−out in a selected valley
and remains locked until the input voltage or the output
current set point significantly changes.
• Primary Side Constant Current Control: thanks to a
proprietary circuit, the controller accurately controls the
output current without requiring a secondary side
feedback (no optocoupler needed). An output current
deviation below ±2% is typically obtained.
• VCC Over Voltage Protection: if the voltage on VCC
pin exceeds an internal limit, the controller shuts down
and waits 4 seconds before restarting pulsing (version
B) or stays latched (A version).
• Adjustable peak current limit: the cycle−by−cycle
maximum peak current limit and the second over
current protection level can be adjusted externally by
connecting a resistor between ILIM pin and ground.
• Brown−Out: the controller includes a brown−out
circuit which safely stops the controller in case the
input voltage is too low. The device will automatically
restart if the line recovers.
• Adjustable Over voltage protection: By connecting a
zener diode to the VIN pin, an adjustable over voltage
protection can be implemented to protect against open
LEDs. Upon detection, the controller waits 4 s
(version A) or 1 s (version B) before attempting to
restart switching.

Winding Short−Circuit Protection (2nd over current
protection level): an additional comparator with a short
LEB filter (tBCS) senses the CS signal and stops the
controller if VCS reaches 140% of VILIMIT). For noise
immunity reasons, this comparator is enabled only
during the main LEB duration tLEB.
Output Short−circuit protection: If a very low
voltage is applied on ZCD pin for 90 ms (nominal), the
controllers assume that the output or the ZCD pin is
shorted to ground and enters shutdown. After waiting
for 4 seconds, the controller restarts switching.
Linear or PWM dimming: the DIM pin allows
implementing both analog and PWM dimming.
OFF Mode: The IC enters in OFF mode after detecting
a fault and whenever the DIM pin voltage stays low
during more than 4 seconds. In this mode, the IC is off
and has a reduced current consumption. This allows
simplifying the PCB design around the ON/OFF
opto−coupler.
Floating or Short pin detection: The NCP1370
protections help passing safety tests. For instance, the
circuit stops operating when the CS pin is grounded or
when the GND pin is open.
Constant Current Control
Capitalizing on the constant current control technique
developed in the NCL3008X product, the NCP1370
accurately regulates the output current of a flyback
converter from its primary side.
By connecting the clamping capacitor of the flyback
converter to the sense resistor as shown in the typical
application schematic (Figure 1), we have an image of the
drain current waveform and of the leakage inductance
current waveform. Thus, by looking at the current sense pin
waveform, the controller is able to detect the reset of the
transformer leakage inductance. Indeed, the leakage
inductance limits the output rectifier peak current as shown
in Figure 3 where it is shown that: Nsp * ID,pk < IL,pk.
Also, by monitoring the auxiliary winding voltage
through the ZCD pin, we can detect the end of conduction
of the secondary rectifier.

The constant current control block picks up the leakage

and controls the drain current to maintain the output current
constant.
We have:

(eq. 2)
From (Equation 1), the first key point is that the output
current is independent of the inductor value. Moreover, the
leakage inductance does not influence the output current
value as the reset time is taken into account by the controller.
(eq. 1)
Soft−Start
Where:
• VREF is the output current internal reference
• Nsp is the secondary to primary transformer turns ratio:
Nsp = Ns / Np
• Rsense is the current sense resistor
At startup or after recovering from a fault, there is a small
internal soft−start of 200 ms maximum.
In addition, during startup, as the output voltage is zero
volts, the demagnetization time is long and the constant
current control block will slowly increase the peak current
towards its nominal value as the output voltage grows.
Figure 5 shows a soft−start simulation example for a 9 W
LED power supply.
The output current value is set by choosing the sense
resistor:

Adjustable Cycle−by−Cycle Current Limit
The pin ILIM allows adjusting the threshold for maximum
peak current limit VILIMIT and also the 2nd over current
protection (OCP2) threshold VCS(stop) which helps
protecting against short circuit of the secondary winding or
of the output diode.
More precisely, the maximum peak current threshold
VILIMIT is equal to the ILIM pin voltage and VCS(stop) value
is derived from VILIMIT. By connecting a resistor between
ILIM and GND pins, the value of internal cycle−by−cycle
current limit VILIMIT is:
(eq. 3)
The threshold for immediate short circuit protection
VCS(stop) is given by:
V CS(stop) + 1.4 @ V ILIMIT
(eq. 4)
Practically, VILIMIT can be adjusted from 0.5 V to 2.6 V,
meaning VCS(stop) range is from 0.7 V to 3.64 V.
When the current sense voltage exceeds the internal
threshold VILIMIT, the MOSFET is turned off for the rest of
the switching cycle. Figure 5 shows the schematic of ILIM
pin.

In parallel with the cycle−by−cycle sensing of the CS pin,
another comparator with a reduced LEB (tBCS ) and a higher
threshold (VCS(stop)) is able to sense winding short−circuit
and stop the controller. In version B, the controller stops the
DRV pulses after counting 4 cycles of VCS > VCS(stop). The
controller attempts to re−start after waiting 4 seconds. In
version A, after counting 4 cycles of VCS > VCS(stop), the
controller stays latched.
The controller is unlatched by one of the 3 following events:
• VCC < VCC(off)
• Standby by VDIM < VDIM(EN) during 4 seconds
• BO_NOK becomes high

PWM or Linear Dimming Detection
Practically, when VDIM < VDIM(EN), the controller
decreases the peak current from its current state to nearly
zero before stopping the DRV pulses.
This allows having a very good correlation between the
dimming duty−cycle and the output current value when
dimming at low duty−cycle.
Also, it is important to note that for good correlation
between the dimming duty−cycle (which represent the
expected output current value relative to the nominal value)
and the actual measured output current, the high state
duration of the dimming signal should not be below 200 ms.
Figure 8 shows the drain source waveform during
soft−stop.
The pin DIM allows dimming the LED light. Analog
dimming or digital (PWM) dimming can be used.
If the power supply designer apply an analog signal
varying from VDIM(EN) to VDIM100 to the DIM pin, the
output current will increase or decrease proportionally to the
voltage applied. For VDIM = VDIM100, the power supply
delivers the maximum output current.
If a voltage lower than VDIM(EN) is applied to the DIM pin,
the DRV pulses are disabled. Thus, for digital dimming, a
PWM signal with a low state value lower than VDIM(EN) and
a high state value higher than VDIM100 should be applied.
The DIM pin is pulled up internally by a small current
source or resistor. Thus, if the pin is left open, the controller
is able to start.
OFF Mode with DIM Pin
The OFF Mode is entered when VDIM stays below
VDIM(EN) for 4 seconds. In this mode, IC consumption is
reduced to ICC(off) (below 50 mA). The OFF mode is exited
only when VDIM becomes higher than VDIM(EN)+VEN(HYS).
Soft Stop during PWM Dimming
The NCP1370 features an internal soft−stop of 200 ms
maximum in order to compensate the output current
decrease caused by the soft−start during PWM dimming.

Mode (see Fault Management section for more information)
In the latched mode, the controller stops pulsing and waits
that one of the 3 following events occurs to reset the latch:
• VCC < VCC(off)
• Standby by VDIM < VDIM(EN) during 4 seconds
• BO_NOK becomes high
When the OVP Latch is reset, the controller goes into OFF
Mode.
VCC Over Voltage Protection
In order to protect itself against too high supply voltage,
the controller features an over voltage protection for the VCC
pin. When the VCC voltage reaches the VCC(OVP) threshold,
the controller stops the DRV pulses and shutdown.
Depending on the version, the controller goes in
auto−recovery mode (version B) or in latched mode
(version A).
In the auto−recovery mode, the controller waits 4 s and
tries to re−start. In order to restart pulsing, the controller

Valley Selection
The input voltage is sensed by the VIN pin. The internal
logic selects the operating valley according to VIN pin
voltage and DIM pin voltage.
By default, when the output current is not dimmed, the
controller operates in the first valley at low line and in the
second valley at high line for version A. For version B, the
controller operates in the 3rd valley at high line. Table 5
summarizes the valley selected by the controller as a
function of the output current and the input voltage. The
numbers in blue are the selected valleys for version B.
Quasi−Square wave resonant systems have a wide
switching frequency excursion. The switching frequency
increases when the output load decreases or when the input
voltage increases. The switching frequency of such systems
must be limited.
The NCP1370 changes valley as the input voltage
increases and as the output current set−point is varied during
dimming. This limits the switching frequency excursion.
Once a valley is selected, the controller stays locked in the
valley until the input voltage or the output current set−point
varies significantly.

Zero Crossing Detection Block
At startup or in case of extremely damped free
oscillations, the ZCD comparator may not be able to detect
the valleys. To avoid such a situation, the NCP1370 features
a Time−Out circuit that generates pulses if the voltage on
ZCD pin stays below the 55−mV threshold for 6.5 ms.
The Time−out also acts as a substitute clock for the valley
detection and simulates a missing valley in case of too
damped free oscillations (Figure 11).
The ZCD pin allows detecting when the drain−source
voltage of the power MOSFET reaches a valley.
A valley is detected when the voltage on pin 1 crosses
down the 55−mV internal threshold.
In order to decrease the capacitor value needed on ZCD
pin to turn−on the MOSFET right in the valley or in some
case remove it, a small delay (250 ns) is added internally
before turning−on the MOSFET.

Output Short Circuit Protection
Line Feed−Forward
Because of the time−out function, if the ZCD pin or the
auxiliary winding is shorted, the controller will continue
switching leading to improper regulation of the LED
current.
Moreover during an output short circuit, the controller
will strive to maintain the constant current operation.
In order to avoid these scenarios, a secondary timer starts
counting when the ZCD voltage is below the VZCD(short)
threshold (Figure 10). If this timer reaches 90 ms, the
controller detects a fault and enters the auto−recovery fault
mode: the controller stops pulsing and waits 4−s before
going through a complete startup sequence.
This protection is disabled when VDIM < VDIM(EN).
Because of the propagation delays, the MOSFET is not
turned−off immediately when the current set−point is
reached. As a result, the primary peak current is higher than
expected and the output current increases. To compensate
the peak current increase brought by the propagation delays,
a positive voltage proportional to the line voltage is added
on the current sense signal. The amount of offset voltage can
be adjusted using the RCS resistor as shown in Figure 12.

The offset voltage is applied only during the MOSFET

Figure 12. Line Feed−Forward, Adjustable OVP and Brown−out Schematic
Adjustable Over Voltage Protection
A clamping circuit on VIN pin limits the voltage
excursion to 4.1 V (Figure 12). This level is high enough to
allow good linearity of the line feedforward current for
universal mains applications with an input voltage up to
265 V rms.
When the zener diode starts conducting, it injects current
inside the clamping circuit and the voltage on VIN pin
increases. When VVIN exceeds VOVP during tOVP(delay), the
circuit detects an over voltage condition and stops the DRV
pulses. The controller waits until the OVP timer
(tOVP(recovery)) has elapsed (4 s for version A, 1 s for
version B) and restarts switching.
•
Brown−out
In order to protect the supply against a very low input
voltage, the NCP1370 features a brown−out circuit with a
fixed ON/OFF threshold (Figure 12). The controller is
allowed to start if a voltage higher than 1 V is applied to the
VIN pin and shuts−down if the VIN pin voltage decreases
and stays below 0.9 V when the BO blanking timer has
elapsed (BO_NOK high). When a brown−out condition is
detected, the circuit stops pulsing and goes into the OFF
mode detailed in the “Fault Management Section”.
110 W typically, the circuit does not start pulsing and
shutdown. The circuit attempts to restart after waiting 4
seconds. In practice, it is recommended to place a
minimum of 250 W in series between the CS pin and
the current sense resistor to take into account parasitic
component effect and electrical parameters tolerance.
Fault of GND pin connection
If the GND pin is properly connected, the current
drawn from the positive terminal of the VCC capacitor
flows out of the GND pin to return to the negative
terminal of the VCC capacitor. If the GND pin is not
connected, the circuit ESD diodes offer another return
path. The accidental non−connection of the GND pin is
monitored by detecting that one of the ESD diode is
conduction. Practically, the ESD diode of CS pin is
monitored. If such a fault is detected for 200 ms, the
circuit stops generating DRV pulses.
Fault Management and Startup Sequence
Figure 13 and Figure 14 shows the state diagrams of the
NCP1370.
OFF Mode
At startup, as long as VCC is not high enough, the
controller is reset. Its current consumption is ICC(start). When
VCC > VCC(on), the controller goes in OFF mode and waits
for the enable signal (VDIM > VDIM(EN)). In OFF mode, the
IC consumption is very low (50 mA maximum).
Pin Connection Faults
• CS pin Short to ground
The circuit senses the CS pin impedance every time it
starts−up. If the measured impedance does not exceed
www.onsemi.com
16
NCP1370
• An Output / Auxiliary winding Short circuit is detected:
The OFF mode is exited only if VCC > VCC(on) and VDIM
> VDIM(EN). The controller then goes in FAULT mode.
More generally, the OFF mode is entered upon the
following events:
• VCC < VCC(off)
• Brown−out edge
• VDIM < VDIM(EN) after 4 seconds
• Die over temperature (TSD)
• The 4−s auto−recovery timer has elapsed
“Aux_SCP high”
• Second OCP level triggered
When the 4−s timer has elapsed, the controller goes in
OFF Mode.
Adjustable OVP Management
When the adjustable OVP on VIN pin is triggered, the
controller stops the DRV pulses and starts the OVP2 Timer
(4 s in version A, 1 s in version B).
When the OVP2 timer has elapsed, the controller goes in
FAULT mode and restart switching if no other fault is
detected.
FAULT Mode
In this mode, the controller measures CS pin impedance.
If CS pin is not shorted the controller is allowed to start the
DRV pulses. If CS pin is shorted, the controller starts the 4
seconds timer. No DRV pulse is generated in this mode.
Latched Protection (VCC OVP, Output Diode Short
Circuit Protection in Version A)
When VCC > VCC(OVP) or when the 2nd OCP is triggered,
the DRV pulses stop and the controller is latched
(Figure 14).
The Latch resets when one of the 3 following events occurs:
• VCC < VCC(off)
• VDIM < VDIM(EN) during 4 seconds
• BO_NOK becomes high
AR Mode
In the auto−recovery mode, the 4 seconds timer is
