1. General description
The SSL2108X is a range of high-voltage Integrated Circuits (ICs), intended to drive LED
lamps in general lighting applications.
The main benefits of the product family are:
•
•
•
•
Small Printed-Circuit Board (PCB) footprint, and compact solution
High efficiency (up to 95 %)
Ease of integration
Low electronic Bill Of Material (BOM)
The product family is made of ICs with a range of internal HV switches for easy power
scaling.
The ICs work as boundary conduction mode converters, typically in buck configuration.
The IC range has been designed to start up directly from the HV supply by an internal
high-voltage current source. Thereafter, the dV/dt supply is used with capacitive coupling
from the drain, or any other auxiliary supply. This functionality provides full flexibility in the
application design. The IC consumes 1.3 mA of supply current with an internal clamp
limiting the supply voltage.
The ICs provide accurate output current control with LED current accuracy within 5%. The
ICs can be operated using Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) dimming and has many
protection features including easy LED temperature feedback.

8. Functional description
8.1 Converter operation
The converter in the SSL2108X is a Boundary Conduction Mode (BCM), peak current
controlled system. For the basic application diagram see Figure 4, for the waveforms see
Figure 5. This converter type operates at the boundary between continuous and
discontinuous mode. Energy is stored in inductor L each period that the switch is on. The
inductor current IL is zero when the internal MOSFET switch is switched on. Thereafter,
the amplitude of the current build-up in L is proportional to VIN VOUT and the time that the
internal MOSFET switch is on. When the internal MOSFET switch is switched off, the
current continues to flow through the freewheel diode and the output capacitor. The
current then falls at a rate proportional to the value of VOUT. The LED current ILED is
almost equal to half the peak switch current. A new cycle is started, as soon as the
inductor current IL is zero.

8.2 Conversion frequency
The conversion frequency must be limited to below 200 kHz. Therefore, select an
inductance value so that the conversion frequency is always within limits, given the supply
voltage, LED voltage and component spread.
8.3 Valley detection
A new cycle is started when the primary switch is switched on (see Figure 5). Following
time t1, when the peak current is detected on the SOURCE pin, the switch is turned off
and the secondary stroke starts (3). When the secondary stroke is complete and the coil
current at t3 equals zero, the drain voltage starts to oscillate around the VIN  VOUT level.
The amplitude equals VOUT. A special feature, called valley detection is an integrated part
of the SSL2108X circuitry. Dedicated built-in circuitry connected to the DRAIN pin, senses
when the voltage on the drain of the switch has reached its lowest value. The next cycle is
then started and as a result the capacitive switching losses are reduced. A valley is
detected and accepted if both the frequency of the oscillations and the voltage swing are
within the range specified (fring and ∆Vvrec(min)) for detection. If a valid valley is not
detected, the secondary stroke is continued until the maximum off-time (toff(high)) is
reached, then the next cycle is started.

Internal OverTemperature Protection (OTP)
Brownout protection
Short-Winding Protection (SWP)
Output Short Protection (OSP)
LED overtemperature control and protection
The SWP and the OSP are latched protections. These protections cause the IC to halt
until a reset (a result of power cycling) is executed. When Vcc drops lower than Vcc(rst), the
IC resets the latch protection mode. The internal OTP and LED over temperature
protections are safe-restart protections. The IC halts, causing VCC to fall lower than
VCC(stop), and instigates start-up. Switching starts only when no fault condition exists.
8.4.1 UnderVoltage LockOut (UVLO)
When the voltage on the VCC pin drops lower than Vcc(stop), the IC stops switching. An
attempt is then made to restart by supplying VCC from the HV pin voltage.
8.4.2 Leading-Edge Blanking (LEB)
To prevent false detection of the short-winding or overcurrent, a blanking time following
switch-on is implemented. When the internal MOSFET switch turns on there can be a
short current spike due to capacitive discharge of voltage over the drain and source.
During the LEB time (tleb), the spike is disregarded.
8.4.3 OverCurrent Protection (OCP)
The SSL2108X contains a highly accurate peak current detector. It triggers when the
voltage at the SOURCE pin reaches the peak-level Vth(ocp)SOURCE. The current through
the switch is sensed using a resistor connected to the SOURCE pin. The sense circuit is
activated following LEB time tleb. As the LED current is half the peak current (by design), it
automatically provides protection for maximum LED current during operation. There is a
propagation delay between overcurrent detection and the actual closure of the switch
td(ocp-swoff). Due to the delay, the actual peak current is slightly higher than the OCP level
set by the resistor in series to the SOURCE pin.
8.4.4 OverTemperature Protection (OTP)
When the internal OTP function is triggered at a certain IC temperature (Tth(act)otp), the
converter stops operating. The OTP safe-restart protection and the IC restarts again with
switching resuming when the IC temperature drops lower than Tth(rel)otp.
8.4.5 Brownout protection
Brownout protection is designed to limit the lamp power when the input voltage drops
close to the output voltage level. Since the input power has to remain constant, the input
current would otherwise increase to a level that is too large for the input circuitry. For the
SSL2108X, there is a maximum limit on the on-time of the switch ton(high). The rate of
current rise in the coil during the on-phase is proportional to the difference between input
voltage and output voltage. Therefore, the peak current cannot be reached before ton(high)
and as a result the average output current to the LEDs is reduced.
Using the SO12 package, the ton(high) can be lowered by connecting a capacitor to the
TONMAX pin. The external capacitor is charged during the primary stroke with ITONMAX. If
VTONMAX level is reached before the ton(high) time, the switch is turned off and the

secondary stroke starts. When no capacitor is connected to the pin, VTONMAX is reached
quickly, shorter than the minimum limit of one microsecond. In this case, or in case the
TONMAX pin is grounded, the internal time constant, ton(high) determines the maximum
on-time.
8.4.6 Short-Winding Protection (SWP)
SWP activates if there is a steep rising current through the MOSFET and thus through the
external resistor connected to the SOURCE pin. This current can occur when there is a
short from the freewheel diode. Additionally, it occurs due to a small/shorted inductor
between the input voltage and the DRAIN pin. If the voltage on the SOURCE pin is greater
than 1.5 V, latched protection is triggered following LEB time tleb. In addition, if Vcc drops
lower than VCC(rst) the IC resets the latched protection mode.
8.4.7 Output Short Protection (OSP)
During the second stroke (switch-of time), if a valley is not detected within the off-time limit
(toff(high)), then typically the output voltage is less than the minimum limit allowed in the
application. This condition can occur either during starting up or due to a short. A timer is
started when toff(high) is detected, and is stopped only if a valid valley-detection occurs in
one of the subsequent cycles. If no valley is detected for tdet(sc), it is concluded that a real
short-circuit exists and not start-up. The IC enters latched protection. If Vcc drops lower
than VCC(rst), the IC resets the latched protection mode. During PWM dimming, the OSP
timer is paused during the off-cycle of the PWM signal.
8.5 VCC supply
The SSL2108X can be supplied using three methods:
• Under normal operation, the voltage swing on the DVDT pin is rectified within the IC
providing current towards the VCC pin
• At start-up, there is an internal current source connected to the HV pin. The current
source provides internal power until either the dV/dt supply or an external current on
the VCC pin provides the supply
• An external voltage source can be connected to the VCC pin
The IC starts up when the voltage at the VCC pin is higher than VCC(startup). The IC locks
out (stops switching) when the voltage at the VCC pin is lower than VCC(stop). The
hysteresis between the start and stop levels allows the IC to be supplied by a buffer
capacitor until the dV/dt supply is settled. The SSL2108X has an internal Vcc clamp, which
is an internal active Zener (or shunt regulator). This internal active Zener limits the voltage
on the supply VCC pin to the maximum value of Vcc. If the maximum current of the dV/dt
supply minus the current consumption of the IC (determined by the load on the gate
drivers), is lower than the maximum value of IDD no external Zener diode is needed in the
dV/dt supply circuit.
8.6 DVDT supply
The DVDT pin is connected to an internal single-sided rectification stage. When an
alternating voltage with sufficient amplitude is supplied to the pin, the IC can be powered
without any other external power connection. This solution provides an effective method

to prevent the additional high-power losses, which would result if a regulator were used for
continuously powering the IC. Unlike an auxiliary supply, additional inductor windings are
not needed.
8.7 VCC regulator
During supply dips, the input voltage can drop too low to supply the required IC current
through the DVDT pin. Under these conditions, if the VCC voltage drops lower than
VCC(swon)reg level, another regulator with a current capability of up to IHVhigh(oper) is started.
The job of the regulator is to fill in the required supply current, which the DVDT supply
does not deliver, thus preventing the IC going into UVLO. When the VCC voltage is higher
than VCC(swon)reg level, the regulator is turned off.
8.8 NTC functionality and PWM dimming
The NTC pin can be used as a control method for LED thermal protection. Alternatively,
the pin can be used as an input to disable/enable light output using a digital signal (PWM
dimming). The pin has an internal current source that generates the current of Ioffset(NTC).
An NTC resistor to monitor the LED temperature can be directly connected to the NTC
pin. Depending on the resistance value and the corresponding voltage on the NTC pin,
the converter reacts as shown in Figure 6.

NTC control curve
When the voltage on the NTC pin is higher than Vth(high)NTC see Figure 6 (4), the converter
delivers nominal output current. When the voltage is lower than this level, the peak current
is gradually reduced until Vth(low)NTC is reached, see Figure 6 (3). The peak current is now
half the peak current of nominal operation. When Vact(tmr)NTC is passed, see Figure 6 (2) a
timer starts to run to distinguish between the following situations:
• If the low-level Vdeact(tmr)NTC is not reached within time tto(deact)NTC, Figure 6 (1) LED
overtemperature is detected. The IC stops switching and attempts to restart from the
HV pin voltage. Restart takes place when the voltage on NTC pin is higher than
Vth(high)NTC, see Figure 6 (4). It is assumed that the reduction in peak current did not
result in a lower NTC temperature and LED OTP is activated.

• If the low-level Vdeact(tmr)NTC is reached within the time tto(deact)NTC, Figure 6 (1) it is
assumed that the pin is pulled down externally. The restart function is not triggered.
Instead, the output current is reduced to zero. PWM dimming can be implemented this
way. The output current rises again when the voltage is higher than Vdeact(tmr)NTC.
8.8.1 Soft-start function
The NTC pin can be used to make a soft start function. During switch-on, the level on the
NTC pin is low. By connecting a capacitor (in parallel with the NTC resistor), a time
constant can be defined. The time constant causes the level on the NTC pin to increase
slowly. When passing level Vth(low)NTC Figure 6 (3), the convertor starts with half of the
maximum current. The output current slowly increases to maximum when Vth(high)NTC
Figure 6 (4) is reached.
8.9 Heat sink
For SSL2108X (SO12) applications, the copper of the PCB acts as the heat sink. The
SSL2108X (SO12) uses thermal leads (pins 2, 6, 10 and 11) for enhanced heat transfer
from die to the PCB copper heat sink. The thermal lead connection can drastically reduce
thermal resistance.
Equation 1 shows the relation between the maximum allowable power dissipation P and
the thermal resistance from junction to ambient.

Where:
Rth(j-a) = thermal resistance from junction to ambient
Tj(max) = maximum junction temperature
