AP8802 1A LED Step-down Converter General Description Features • • • • • • • • LED driving current up to 1A High efficiency up to 92% Operating input voltage up to 48V High switching frequency up to 500kHz PWM/DC input for dimming control Built-in output open-circuit protection SOP-8L, SOP-8L-EP and DFN3030-10 are available in “Green” Molding Compound (No Br, Sb) Lead Free Finish/ RoHS Compliant (Note 1) The AP8802 is a step-down DC/DC converter designed to drive LEDs with a constant current. The device can drive up to thirteen LEDs, depending on the forward voltage of the LEDs, in series from a voltage source of 8V to 48V. Series connection of the LEDs provides identical LED currents resulting in uniform brightness and eliminating the need for ballast resistors. The AP8802 switches at frequency up to 500kHz. This allows the use of small size external components, hence minimizing the PCB area needed. Maximum output current of AP8802 is set via an external resistor connected between the VIN and SET input pins. Dimming is achieved by applying either a DC voltage or a PWM signal at the CTRL input pin. An input voltage of 0.2V or lower at CTRL shuts down the output at SW and puts the device into a low-current standby state.

For most applications the LED current will be within 8% over the duty cycle range specified. Duty cycle accuracy is also dependent on propagation delay. Smaller size inductors can be used but LED current accuracy may be greater than 8% at extremes of duty cycle. This is most noticeable at low duty cycles (less than 0.1) or when the input voltage is high and only one LED is being driven.

X5R and X7R types are recommended because they retain their capacitance over wider voltage and temperature ranges than other types such as Z5U. A 2.2μF input capacitor is sufficient for most intended applications of AP8802. A 4.7μF input capacitor is suggested for application with an input voltage equal or higher than 40V. Diode Selection Schottky diodes, e.g. B2100 or B1100, with their low forward voltage drop and fast reverse recovery, are the ideal choice for AP8802 applications. PWM Dimming A Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signal with a max resolution of 8bit, can be applied to the CTRL pin to change the output current to a value above or below the nominal average value set by resistor RSET. To achieve this resolution the PWM frequency has to be lower than 500Hz. Thermal Considerations The graph below in figure 8, gives details for power derating.
