Design Procedure
Overview
This section describes how to design a 12 W dimmable LED driver using the CY8CLEDAC02 for specifications listed
in Table 1 on page 6. It outlines the design equations used to size components in different subcircuits along with the
transformer. The component values suggested here are a good starting point to optimize the design further for efficiency,
power factor, and EMI.

Input AC Peak Voltage and Minimum DC Voltage
The minimum AC peak voltage is as follows:
VINAC _ PEAK (min) = 2 × VINAC _ RMS (min)
VINAC _ PEAK (min) = 2 × 207V = 292.7V
The maximum AC peak voltage is as follows:
V INAC _ PEAK (max) = 2 × V INAC _ RMS (max)
V INAC _ PEAK (max) = 2 × 253V = 357.8V
This design targets a 60 V ripple on the input bulk capacitor to optimize its lifetime. Therefore, the minimum DC input
voltage is determined as follows:
VINDC (min) = VINAC _ PEAK (min) − VBULK _ RIPPLE
VINDC (min) = 292.7V − 60V = 232.7V

Output Voltage and Secondary Winding Voltage
As a rule of thumb, provide 5 percent headroom for the output voltage to accommodate for any LED forward voltage
variation:
VOUT (max) = 105% × V LOAD (max)
VOUT (max) = 105% × 27.2V = 28.56V
Using a Schottky diode with 0.5 V forward drop for output diode (D7), the secondary winding peak voltage is as follows:
V SEC (max) = VOUT (max) + V F _ D 7
V SEC (max) = 28.56V + 0.5V = 29.06V
VIN Scaling Ratio
The CY8CLEDAC02 uses a scaled and slightly modified version of the input AC voltage to sense the input line
characteristics using the VIN pin. The scaling ratio is a ratio of maximum VIN pin voltage to the maximum input AC voltage.
Scaling _ ratio =
VIN _ RMS (max)
,
VINAC _ RMS (max)
Where VIN_RMS(max) = 1 V. This scales the maximum input AC voltage to 1 VRMS across the internal 2.5-kΩ resistor on the VIN
pin.
Scaling _ ratio =
1V
= 0.004
253V
Volt-Second Product
The maximum volt-second product (VINtON) is determined using the minimum input bulk-capacitor voltage and maximum
possible on time for the flyback MOSFET switch.
(VINtON)limit is calculated as:
(VIN tON ) lim it = VINDC (min) × tON (max)
(VIN tON ) lim it = 232.7V × 5.6μs
(VIN tON ) lim it = 1303.12Vμs
The (VINtON)limit calculated earlier is the ideal maximum volt-microsecond for this system. This value does not take into
account operational stresses imposed with a high value. Using a high value for (VINtON)limit causes higher inductance,
greater primary side current, and greater component limits such as peak voltage on the flyback FET and output diode.
To minimize stress in the system, use a lower (VINtON)limit, referred to as (VINtON)max. A (VINtON)max of 700 Vµs is used.

Design of Key Components and Subcircuits
Refer to the schematic provided in the Reference Implementation section on page 18 for component designators.
Major Capacitors

voltage droops. The maximum input power is:

This design uses a standard 6.8-µF capacitor for C3 rated at 400 V.

VCC Capacitors (C8, C9)
Size the VCC capacitor (C9) such that it can sustain power to the chip during the dimmer detection cycles because the bias
winding does not supply energy to charge it during this period. The dimmer detection time is four AC half-cycles.

Input Voltage Scaling and Quick Start Subcircuits
Input Scaling Subcircuit (R3, R4, R28, R29, C7, Z2)
The scaling resistors are determined using the scaling ratio. Select R29 = 56 kΩ to start with. The sum of R3 and R4 can be
determined as follows:
Scaling _ ratio =
Z VIN
( R3 + R 4) + R 29 + Z VIN
2.5kΩ
( R3 + R 4) + 56kΩ + 2.5kΩ
∴ R3 + R 4 = 574kΩ

PR 3 + R 4 =
R3 + R 4

574kΩ
This design uses two 301 kΩ, 1206 package, thick-film resistors for R3 and R4. Choose the 1206 footprint for these
resistors to allow for the 200 V working voltage requirements for each resistor. Typically, the total resistance is divided
equally to balance the power dissipation.
C7 = 1 nF, a filter capacitor required to filter any high- frequency noise from the boost and flyback converters.
The following are recommended component values:
R28 = 20 kΩ
Z2, Reverse breakdown voltage of 20 V
Fast Start Subcircuit (R9, R10, Q3, D5)
Components R9, R10, Q3, and D5 provide a path to fast charge CVCC, which is required to meet the 500 ms startup time
target for the design. Typically, using one-eighth the value of R3 and R4 for R9 and R10 is enough to meet the startup time
requirement.
R9 = R10 =

32.4kΩ + 32.4kΩ
∴ PR 9 = PR10 = 0.988W
R9 and R10 are selected in 1210 packages because the 0.988 W power dissipation is only for the first 100 ms during
startup. The quick start transistor (Q3) must be a depletion type MOSFET with appropriate current rating.
The quick start diode (D5) can be a small signal silicon diode with appropriate voltage rating. This design uses a 150 V
rated diode.
Flyback Converter Design
Transformer (T1) Turns Ratio
To determine the transformer (T1) turns ratio, use the minimum target switching frequency ƒSW(maxop_targ). With a target
switching frequency of 120 kHz for optimum performance and efficiency in a small transformer package, derive the turns
ratio as follows:
Starting with the equation for valley mode switching:
t PERIOD(max) = tON (max) + tOFF (max) + tVALLEY 1
t PERIOD(max) =

∴ N TR ( rec ) = 4.99
NTR(rec) is the recommended NTR value. However, for transformer manufacturability, this design uses a NTR = 5.
Now that the NTR is confirmed, calculate the actual minimum switching frequency for the design with the previous equation
as:
f SW (max op ) = 117.47kHz
Current Sense Resistors (R15, R16)

This design uses an 800 V, 4.6 A FET for Q1 for optimum efficiency.
The output diode should be able to withstand a reverse voltage of at least:
V R _ D 7 = 1.3 × (V INAC _ PEAK (max) / N TR + V SEC ( Max ) )
V R _ D 7 = 1.3 × (357.8V / 5 + 29.06V ) = 130.81V
Additionally, the diode should be able to sustain the maximum secondary current:
I SEC (max) = NTR × I PRI (max) ,
Calculate the maximum primary peak current (IPRI(max)) as follows:
I PRI (max) =
V REGTH
RISENSE
I PRI (max) =
1.8V
= 0.416 A
4.33Ω
Therefore:
I SEC (max) = 5 × 0.416 A = 2.08 A
This design uses a 200 V, 3A diode for D7.

Supporting Circuits
Chopper Circuit (L3, Q2, R5, R6)
Selection of chopper components plays a significant role in overall dimmer compatibility. The following chopper component
values are recommended for most high line (230 VAC) designs and are based on extensive testing of dimmers.
R5 = 220 Ω, 2 W, the chopper drain resistor
R6 = 59 Ω, 1/2 W, chopper source (current limit) resistor
L3 = 5 mH, chopper inductor
Q2, the chopper FET switch, should be selected as specified (or similar) in the Bill of Materials (BOM) section on page 16.
Flyback FET (Q1) Drain Clamp (C4, R11, D4)
Adding an RCD snubber limits the voltage spike on the drain of the flyback MOSFET at turn-off. The energy stored in the
leakage inductance of the transformer is then dissipated over the rest of the switching period. For maximum efficiency,
minimize the leakage inductance. Final component values are determined after careful characterization of first prototypes.
This design uses a 2.2-nF capacitor for C4 and a 330 kΩ, 1206-package resistor for R11. D4 is a 1000 V, 1 A diode.
Output Diode (D7) Clamp (C12, R17)
Adding an RC clamp on the output diode improves fidelity of the ISENSE signal. Final component values are determined after
careful characterization of first prototypes.
This design uses 100 pF for C12 and 107 Ω, 1206-package resistor for R17.
Chopper Diode (D3) Clamp (C14, R7, R31)
Adding an RC clamp on the chopper diode improves conducted EMI performance of the design. Final component values
are determined after careful characterization of first prototypes.
This design uses 68 pF for C14 and 3.4 kΩ, 1206-package resistor for R7 and R31.
Over Temperature Protection (R27, R18)
The reference design does not implement over temperature protection (OTP). For more information on OTP and operation
of the VT pin, refer to the CY8CLEDAC02 device data sheet.
This design has a 0-Ω resistor for R27, which is a placeholder for an appropriate NTC resistor. R18 is 20 kΩ, which disables
OTP on the VT pin.

Reference Implementation
Schematic
The guidelines discussed in this document provide a method to arrive at first-pass components used to prepare a prototype
for this design. Based on functional and performance data gathered while testing this prototype board, different circuit
components are tuned to meet the end system requirements.
The transformer specifications obtained from the calculations may not always result in a feasible winding structure. For
example, for the number of turns in the primary winding, a value larger than the minimum number calculated from the
primary winding section may be necessary. In this design, NP is selected as 200 turns. In addition, the primary magnetizing
inductance may have to be increased to reduce the switching frequency and hence the switching losses in the system. The
current sense resistance may have to be tuned based on the efficiency of the transformer and the accuracy of its turnsratio. Figure 2 on page 18 is the final schematic for this 12 W reference design and is in the document package.
