AL1697 High PF, Offline Dimmable LED Driver with Internal High-Voltage MOSFET Description Pin Assignments NEW PRODUCT The AL1697 is a high performance, high power factor, high efficiency and high precision buck-boost LED driver for mains dimmable LED lamp applications. The AL1697 topology provides an accurate output current over wide line and load regulation. The wide switching frequency operates at boundary conduction mode (BCM) to ease EMI/EMC design, and testing to meet the latest regulatory standards. (Top View) The AL1697 with built in MOSFET solution reduces the bill of material (BOM) cost by eliminating the need of auxiliary winding and an external high voltage MOSFET. The AL1697 has extensive protection features to enhance system safety and reliability. The AL1697 starts reducing output current when the driver’s temperature is higher than the built-in thermal foldback protection trigger point.

AL1697 Document number: DS38223 Rev. 3 - 2 5 of 13 www.diodes.com January 2016 © Diodes Incorporated AL1697 Functional Description and Application Information Convertor Operation High power factor (PF) is achieved using constant on-time mode; coupled with simple closed loop of constant current control the AL1697 achieves good line and load regulation. The AL1697 adopts source-driver technique to decrease the system operating current. It uses a novel method to detect the tOFF time which results in the removal for the need of an auxiliary winding for (VCC supply and) detecting the tOFF time, which enables the AL1697 to have an extremely low bill material (BOM) solution. The AL1697 operates at boundary conduction mode (BCM) which can ease EMI design.

It is available in two internal High-Voltage MOSFET options for 4Ω and 1.8Ω with Super-Junction which reduce the overall LED driver solution size of the LED lamp. Two different MOSFET options are targeted at optimizing the solutions of different LED chain lengths and powers. 4 6 5 D CS FB R5 D1 R4 R9 D2 L2 R7 R8 C5 LEDS + Figure 1. Typical Application Circuit Start-up and Supply Voltage Before start-up, the VCC capacitor C4 is charged by the startup resistors (R2, R3) from the high voltage mains. When the start-up voltage is reached, the AL1697 starts switching. During normal operation, the VCC supply is provided by start-up resisters (R2, R3) and the output voltage (VOUT) rectified by one diode (D2). In this way the system can provide VCC supply at low dimming angle. The AL1697 has an internal VCC clamp voltage (typical 15.5V), which is limited by one internal active Zener diode. When VCC voltage drops to below the VOPR(Min), switching is stop. So the device can operate normally when the voltage on VCC pin is between VOPR(MIN) and VCC clamp voltage. Protections Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO) When the voltage on the VCC pin drops to below VOPR(MIN), the IC stops switching. The IC can restart when the voltage on VCC exceeds the startup voltage (VTH(ST)). Leading-Edge Blanking (LEB) To prevent false detection of the peak current of the inductor, a blanking time following switch-on is designed. When the internal switch turns on, a short current spike can occur because of the capacitive discharge of the voltage over the drain and source. It is disregarded during the LEB time (tON_MIN). Cycle-by-cycle Over Current Protection (OCP) The AL1697 has a built-in peak current detector. It triggers when the voltage on CS pin reaches the peak level VCS_CLAMP. The R5 is connected to the CS pin to sense the current of the inductor. The maximum peak current (IPEAK(MAX))of the inductor can be calculated as below: AL1697 Document number: DS38223 Rev. 3 - 2 6 of 13 www.diodes.com January 2016 © Diodes Incorporated AL1697 Functional Description and Application Information (Cont.) I PEAK MAX VCS _ CLAMP R5 …………… (1) The detection circuit is activated after the LEB time. When the detection circuit sense the CS voltage is higher than 1V, the IC will turn off the switching to limit the output current. It automatically provides protection for the maximum LED current during operation. A propagation delay exists between over current detection and actual source-switch off, so the actual peak current is a little higher than the OCP level set by the R5. NEW PRODUCT Over-Voltage Protection and Output-Open Protection (OVP) The output voltage is sensed by the FB pin, which provides an over-voltage protection (OVP) function. When the output is open or large transient happens, the output voltage will exceed the rated value (R8, R9). When the voltage exceeds VFB, the over-voltage is triggered and the IC will discharge VCC. When the VCC is below the UVLO threshold voltage, IC will restart and the VCC capacitor is charged again by start-up resistance. If the over voltage condition still exists, the system will work in hiccup mode. Output-Short Protection (OSP) When LED is shorted, the device cannot detect the tOFF time, and the device controls the system operation at 4kHz low frequency. Thermal Foldback Protection (TFP) AL1697 has a thermal foldback function and adopts self-adaptive control method, which can prevent the system breaking down caused by high temperature. The overheating temperature is set at +145°C typical, when the junction temperature of the IC is higher than +145°C typical, the device will linearly decrease the internal reference voltage to decrease the output current. As a result of this feature, the device can control the system’s output power at high ambient temperature, to control the quantity of heat of the system. This enhances the safety of the system at high temperature. The thermal foldback waveform is shown below: Output Current 100% 50% TFOLD=145 OTP Junction Temperature/°C Figure 2. Thermal Foldback Waveform Over-Temperature Protection (OTP) The AL1697 has OTP protection function. When the junction temperature reach to +160°C typical, the IC will trigger an over-temperature protection condition which causes the device to shut down and latched. Once OTP has triggered, the system will resume after the system’s AC source supply has been reset and power up.

Dimming Control NEW PRODUCT AL1697 is a closed loop control device, the dimming function is realized by tON_MAX limited when dimmer is connected in. When the dimmer is at the largest conduction angle, the device still has the adjustability to control the output current constant before COMP voltage is adjusted to the maximum 4V, so for most of the dimmer, the output current is almost the same with the no dimmer condition at the largest conduction angle. If the conduction angle is decreased, the COMP pin voltage will continue to increase quickly till to the maximum level (typical 4V), the device will output tON_MAX to limit system’s output current. The tON_MAX is set by RT pin connected with one resistor, so the dimming depth can be adjusted by RT resistor (R6). Before the AL1697 enters tON_MAX mode, the AL1697 keep the output current constant the same as no dimmer condition. When enter tON_MAX mode, we can get the following equation: I PEAK _ DIM VI N _ RMS Sin( ) tON _ MAX …………………………………………… (9) L2 From the buck-boost output current equation, we can get the output current when dimming: 1 VREF 2 R5 I O ( ) 2VIN _ RMS Sin( ) 1 1 I PEAK _ DI M d 0 2 2VIN _ RMS Sin( ) VO if tON tON _ MAX else ……………… (10) Where, is the dimmer conduction angle.

LED Driver Schematic with Passive Bleeder AL1697 Document number: DS38223 Rev. 3 - 2 9 of 13 www.diodes.com January 2016 © Diodes Incorporated AL1697 Functional Description and Application information (Cont.) The passive bleeder includes a capacitor (C2, in hundreds of nF) to provide latching current. A resistor (R1) is necessary to dampen the current spike. Because a large C2 will affect the PF, THD and efficiency, the value of the capacitor (C2) should be selected accordingly. Generally, 100nF/400V to 330nF/400V is recommended. R1 is used to limit the latching current, If R1 is too large, the latching current is not enough and the TRIAC dimmer will misfire causing LED flicker. If R1 is too small, it will result in greater power dissipation. Generally speaking, a 200Ω to 2KΩ resistor is selected for R1. NEW PRODUCT Passive Damping Design FR1 is the damper for reducing the spike current caused by quick charging of C2 at firing. In General, FR1 is selected from 20Ω to 100Ω for low line like 120VAC application, and 51Ω to 200Ω for high line like 230VAC application.
