The HV9925 controls the output current (rather than output voltage) of the converter that can be programmed by a single external resistor (RSENSE), for the purpose of driving a string of light emitting diodes (LED). An external enable input (PWMD) is provided that can be utilized for PWM dimming of an LED string. The typical rising and falling edge transitions of the LED current when using the PWM dimming feature of the HV9925 are shown in Fig. 6 and Fig. 7. When the input voltage of 20 to 400V appears at the DRAIN pin, the internal linear regulator seeks to maintain a voltage of 7.5VDC at the VDD pin. Until this voltage exceeds the internally programmed under-voltage threshold, no output switching occurs. When the threshold is exceeded, the integrated high-voltage switch turns on, pulling the DRAIN low. A 200mV hysteresis is incorporated with the undervoltage comparator to prevent oscillation. When the voltage at RSENSE exceeds 0.47V, the switch turns off and the DRAIN output becomes high impedance. At the same time, a one-shot circuit is activated that determines the off-time of the switch (10.5µs typ.). A “blanking” delay of 300ns is provided upon the turn-on of the switch that prevents false triggering of the current sense comparator due to the leading edge spike caused by circuit parasitics. Application Information Selecting L1 and D1 The required value of L1 is inversely proportional to the ripple current ∆IO in it. Setting the relative peak-to-peak ripple to 20~30% is a good practice to ensure noise immunity of the current sense comparator. L1 = (VO • TOFF) / ΔIO (1) VO is the forward voltage of the LED string. TOFF is the offtime of the HV9925. The output current in the LED string (IO) is calculated then as: IO = (VTH / RSENSE) - 1/2ΔIO (2) where VTH is the current sense comparator threshold, and RSENSE is the current sense resistor. The ripple current introduces a peak-to-average error in the output current setting that needs to be accounted for. Due to the constant off-time control technique used in the HV9925, the ripple current is nearly independent of the input AC or DC voltage variation. Therefore, the output current will remain unaffected by the varying input voltage. Adding a filter capacitor across the LED string can reduce the output current ripple even further, thus permitting a reduced value of L1. However, one must keep in mind that the peak-to-average current error is affected by the variation of TOFF. Therefore, the initial output current accuracy might be sacrificed at large ripple current in L1. Another important aspect of designing an LED driver with HV9925 is related to certain parasitic elements of the circuit, including distributed coil capacitance of L1, junction capacitance, and reverse recovery of the rectifier diode D1, capacitance of the printed circuit board traces CPCB and output capacitance CDRAIN of the controller itself. These parasitic elements affect the efficiency of the switching converter and could potentially cause false triggering of the current sense comparator if not properly managed. Minimizing these parasitics is essential for efficient and reliable operation of HV9925. Coil capacitance of inductors is typically provided in the manufacturer’s data books either directly or in terms of the self-resonant frequency (SRF). SRF = 1 / (2π√(L • CL)) where L is the inductance value, and CL is the coil capacitance. Charging and discharging this capacitance every switching cycle causes high-current spikes in the LED string. Therefore, connecting a small capacitor CO (~10nF) is recommended to bypass these spikes. Using an ultra-fast rectifier diode for D1 is recommended to achieve high efficiency and reduce the risk of false triggering of the current sense comparator. Using diodes with shorter reverse recovery time trr, and lower junction capacitance CJ, achieves better performance. The reverse voltage rating VR of the diode must be greater than the maximum input voltage of the LED lamp. The total parasitic capacitance present at the DRAIN output of the HV9925 can be calculated as: CP = CDRAIN + CPCB + CL + CJ (3) When the switch turns on, the capacitance CP is discharged into the DRAIN output of the IC. The discharge current is limited to about 150mA typically. However, it may become lower at increased junction temperature. The duration of the leading edge current spike can be estimated as: TSPIKE = ((VIN • CP) / ISAT) + trr ● 1235 Bordeaux Drive, Sunnyvale, CA 94089 ● Tel: 408-222-8888 ● www.supertex.com 5 (4) HV9925 In order to avoid false triggering of the current sense comparator, CP must be minimized in accordance with the following expression: (5) where TBLANK(MIN) is the minimum blanking time of 200ns, and VIN(MAX) is the maximum instantaneous input voltage. The typical DRAIN and RSENSE voltage waveforms are shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4. When the LED driver is powered from the full-wave rectified AC line input, the exact equation for calculating the conduction loss is more cumbersome. However, it can be estimated using the following equation: PCOND = (KC • IO2 • RON) + (KD • IDD • VAC) where VAC is the input AC line voltage. The coefficients KC and Kd can be determined from the minimum duty ratio Dm=0.71Vo/(VAC). 0.7 Estimating Power Loss 0.6 Discharging the parasitic capacitance CP into the DRAIN output of the HV9925 is responsible for the bulk of the switching power loss. It can be estimated using the following equation: (6) where FS is the switching frequency and ISAT is the saturated DRAIN current of the HV9925. The switching loss is the greatest at the maximum input voltage. Disregarding the voltage drop at HV9925 and D1, the switching frequency is given by the following: FS = (10) VIN - VO (7) VIN • TOFF When the HV9925 LED driver is powered from the full-wave rectified AC input, the switching power loss can be estimated as: (8) 0.5 KD ( DM ) K C ( DM ) 0.4 0.3 0.2 0.1 0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 DM Figure 1. Conduction Loss Coefficients KC and Kd EMI Filter As with all off-line converters, selecting an input filter is critical to obtaining good EMI. A switching side capacitor, albeit of small value, is necessary in order to ensure low impedance to the high frequency switching currents of the converter. As a rule of thumb, this capacitor should be approximately 0.10.2 µF/W of LED output power. A recommended input filter is shown in Figure 2 for the following design example. VAC is the input AC line voltage. Design Example 1 The switching power loss associated with turn-off transitions of the DRAIN output can be disregarded. Due to the large amount of parasitic capacitance connected to this switching node, the turn-off transition occurs essentially at zerovoltage. Let us design an HV9925 LED lamp driver meeting the following specifications: When the HV9925 LED driver is powered from DC input voltages, conduction power loss can be calculated as: PCOND = (D • IO2 • RON) + IDD • VIN • (1 - D) (9) Input: Universal AC, 85-264VAC Output Current: 20mA Load: String of 10 LED (LW541C by OSRAM VF = 4.1V max. each) The schematic diagram of the LED driver is shown in Figure 2. where D = VO /VIN is the duty ratio, RON is the ON resistance, IDD is the internal linear regulator current. ● 1235 Bordeaux Drive, Sunnyvale, CA 94089 ● Tel: 408-222-8888 ● www.supertex.com 6 HV9925 Step 1.

We will use an aluminum electrolytic capacitor for CIN in order to prevent interruptions of the LED current at zero crossings of the input voltage. As a “rule of thumb”, 2~3μF per each watt of the input power is required for CIN in this case. Step 1. Calculating L1. The output voltage VO = 12 · VF = 30V (max.).
