AL9910/AL9910A UNIVERSAL HIGH VOLTAGE HIGH BRIGHTNESS LED DRIVER NEW PRODUCT Description Pin Assignments The AL9910/A high voltage PWM LED driver-controller provides an efficient solution for offline high brightness LED lamps from rectified line voltages ranging from 85VAC up to 277VAC. The AL9910 drives external MOSFETs at switching frequencies up to 300kHz, with the switching frequency determined by a single resistor. The AL9910 topology creates a constant current through the LEDs providing constant light output. The output current is programmed by one external resistor and is ultimately determined by the external MOSFET chosen and therefore allows many low current LEDs to be driven as well as a few high current LEDs (Top View) VIN 1 CS GND 2 Gate 8 Rosc 3 7 6 LD VDD 4 5 PWM_D AL9910 SO-8 (Top View) The LED brightness can be varied by both Linear and PWM dimming using the AL9910’s LD and PWM_D pins respectively. The PWM_D input operates with duty ratio of 0-100% and frequency of up to several kHz. The AL9910 can withstand input voltages up to 500V which makes it very resilient to transients at standard mains voltages.

It can also be made to operate in continuous as well as discontinuous conduction mode. VIN VIN 7.5/10V LDO NEW PRODUCT OSC ROSC VDD VDD 250mV S R LD O GATE CS OTP PWM_D 100k AL9910/AL9910A RSENSE GND Figure 1. Functional block diagram The AL9910 contains a high voltage LDO (see figure 1) the output of the LDO provides a power rail to the internal circuitry including the gate driver. A UVLO on the output of the LDO prevents incorrect operation at low input voltage to the VIN pin. In a non-isolated Buck LED driver when the gate pin goes high the external power MOSFET Q1 is turned on causing current to flow through the LEDs, inductor (L1) and current sense resistor (RSENSE). When the voltage across RSENSE exceeds the current sense pin threshold the external MOSFET Q1 is turned off. The stored energy in the inductor causes the current to continue to flow through the LEDs via diode D1. The AL9910’s LDO provides all power to the rest of the IC including Gate drive this removes the need for large high power start-up resistors. This means that operate correctly it requires around 0.5mA from the high voltage power rail. The LDO can also be used to supply up to 1mA to external circuits. The AL9910 operates and regulates by limiting the peak current of the external MOSFET; the peak current sense threshold is nominally set at 250mV. The same basic operation is true for isolated topologies, however in these the energy stored in the transformer delivers energy to LEDs during the off-cycle of the external MOSFET. Design parameters Setting the LED current In the non-isolated buck converter topology, figure 1, the average LED current is not the peak current divided by 2 - however, there is a certain error due to the difference between the peak and the average current in the inductor. The following equation accounts for this error: 250mV . R SENSE = (ILED + (0.5 * IRIPPLE ))) AL9910/AL9910A Document number: DS 35103 Rev. 2 - 2 6 of 14 www.diodes.com March 2011 © Diodes Incorporated AL9910/AL9910A UNIVERSAL HIGH VOLTAGE HIGH BRIGHTNESS LED DRIVER Applications Information (Continued) Setting Operating Frequency The AL9910 is capable of operating over a 25 and 300 kHz switching frequency range. The switching frequency is programmed by connecting an external resistor between ROSC pin and ground. The corresponding oscillator period is: tOSC = Rosc + 22 µs 25 with ROSC in kΩ NEW PRODUCT The switching frequency is the reciprocal of the oscillator period. Typical values for ROSC vary from 75kΩ to 1MΩ When driving smaller numbers of LEDs, care should be taken to ensure that tON > tBLANK. The simplest way to do this is to reduce/limit the switching frequency by increasing the ROSC value. Reducing the switching frequency will also improve the efficiency. When operating in buck mode the designer must keep in mind that the input voltage must be maintained higher than 2 times the forward voltage drop across the LEDs. This limitation is related to the output current instability that may develop when the AL9910 operates at a duty cycle greater than 0.5. This instability reveals itself as an oscillation of the output current at a subharmonic (SBO) of the switching frequency. The best solution is to adopt the so-called constant off-time operation as shown in Figure 2. The resistor (ROSC) is, connected to ground by default, to set operating frequency. To force the AL9910 to enter constant OFF time mode ROSC is connected to the gate of the external MOSFET. This will decrease the duty cycle from 50% by increasing the total period, tOFF + tON. VIN VDD LD VIN Q1 AL9910/A GATE PWM_D ROSC GND CS ROSC Figure 2. Constant off-time configuration The oscillator period equation above now defines the AL9910 off time, tOFF. When using this mode the nominal switching frequency is chosen and from the nominal input and output voltages the off-time can be calculated: ⎛ VOUT ( nom ) ⎞ ⎟∗ 1 tOFF = ⎜1 − ⎜ VIN ( nom ) ⎟⎠ fOSC ⎝ From this the timing resistor, ROSC, can be calculated: R OSC = (t OFF (µs) ∗ 25 ) − 22(kΩ ) AL9910/AL9910A Document number: DS 35103 Rev. 2 - 2 7 of 14 www.diodes.com March 2011 © Diodes Incorporated AL9910/AL9910A UNIVERSAL HIGH VOLTAGE HIGH BRIGHTNESS LED DRIVER Applications Information (Continued) Inductor Selection NEW PRODUCT The non-isolated buck circuit, Figure 1, is usually selected and it has two operation modes: continuous and discontinuous conduction modes. A buck power stage can be designed to operate in continuous mode for load current above a certain level usually 15% to 30% of full load. Usually, the input voltage range, the output voltage and load current are defined by the power stage specification. This leaves the inductor value as the only design parameter to maintain continuous conduction mode. The minimum value of inductor to maintain continuous conduction mode can be determined by the following example. The required inductor value is determined from the desired peak-to-peak LED ripple current in the inductor; typically around 30% of the nominal LED current. (VIN − VLEDs ) × D Where D is duty cycle L= (0.3 × ILED ) × fOSC The next step is determining the total voltage drop across the LED string. For example, when the string consists of 10 HighBrightness LEDs and each diode has a forward voltage drop of 3.0V at its nominal current; the total LED voltage VLEDS is 30V. Dimming The LED brightness can be dimmed either linearly (using the LD pin) or via pulse width modulation (using the PWM-D pin); or a combination of both - depending on the application. Pulling the PWM_D pin to ground will turn off the AL9910. When disabled, the AL9910’s quiescent current is typically 0.5mA (0.65 for AL9910A). Reducing the LD voltage will reduce the LED current but it will not entirely turn off the external power transistor and hence the LED current – this is due to the finite blanking period. Only the PWM_D pin will turn off the power transistor. Linear dimming is accomplished by applying a 45 to 250mV analog signal to the LD pin. This overrides the default 250mV threshold level of the CS pin and reduces the output current. If an input voltage greater than 250mV is applied to the LD then the output current will not change. The LD pin also provides a simple cost effective solution to soft start; by connecting a capacitor to the LD pin down to ground at initial power up the LD pin will be held low causing the sense threshold to be low. As the capacitor charges up the current sense threshold will increase thereby causing the average LED current to increase. PWM dimming is achieved by applying an external PWM signal to the PWM_D pin. The LED current is proportional to the PWM duty cycle and the light output can be adjusted between zero and 100%.. The PWM signal enables and disables the AL9910 - modulating the LED current. The ultimate accuracy of the PWM dimming method is limited only by the minimum gate pulse width, which is a fraction of a percentage of the low frequency duty cycle. PWM dimming of the LED light can be achieved by turning on and off the converter with low frequency 50Hz to 1000Hz TTL logic level signal. With both modes of dimming it is not possible to achieve average brightness levels higher than the one set by the current sense threshold level of the AL9910. If a greater LED current is required then a smaller sense resistor should be used Output Open Circuit Protection The non-isolated buck LED driver topology provides inherent protection against an open circuit condition in the LED string due to the LEDs being connected in series with the inductor. Should the LED string become open circuit then no switching occurs and the circuit can be permanently left in this state with damage to the rest of the circuit.

From this and the LED chain voltage the duty cycle can be determined: D = VLEDs /VIN = 30/169 = 0.177 From the switching frequency, for example fOSC = 50kHz, the required on-time of the external MOSFET can be calculated: tON = D/fOSC = 3.5 µs The value of the inductor is determined as follows: L = (VIN - VLEDs) * tON /(0.3 * ILED) = 4.6mH AL9910/AL9910A Document number: DS 35103 Rev. 2 - 2 9 of 14 www.diodes.com March 2011 © Diodes Incorporated AL9910/AL9910A UNIVERSAL HIGH VOLTAGE HIGH BRIGHTNESS LED DRIVER Applications Information (Continued) Input Bulk Capacitor For Offline lamps an input bulk capacitor is required to ensure that the rectified AC voltage is held above twice the LED string voltage throughout the AC line cycle. The value can be calculated from: CIN ≥ Pin × (1 − Dch ) 2 × VLine _ min × 2fL × ΔVDC _ max NEW PRODUCT Where Dch : Capacity charge work period, generally about 0.2~0.25 fL : Input frequency for full range (85~265VRMS) ΔVDC _ max Should be set 10~15% of 2 VLine _ min If the capacitor has a 15% voltage ripple then a simplified formula for the minimum value of the bulk input capacitor approximates to: I × VLEDs × 0.06 CMIN = LED VIN 2 Power Factor Correction If power factor improvement is required then for the input power less than 25W, a simple passive power factor correction circuit can be added to the AL9910 typical application circuit. Figure 4 shows that passive PFC circuitry (3 current steering diodes and 2 identical capacitors) does not significantly affect the rest of the circuit. Simple passive PFC improves the line current harmonic distortion and achieves a power factor greater than 0.85.

When driving long LED chains care should be taken not to induce SBO – maximum LED chain voltage should be less half of VIN. So either maximum duty cycle should be kept below 50% or use of constant off-time removes this issue. NEW PRODUCT DC-DC Boost LED driver Due to the topology of the AL9910 LED driver-controller it is capable of being used in boost configurations – at reduced accuracy. The accuracy can be improved by measuring the LED current with an op amp and use the op amp’s output to drive the LD pin. A Boost LED driver is used when the forward voltage drop of the LED string is higher than the input supply voltage. For example, the Boost topology can be appropriate when input voltage is supplied by a 48V power supply and the LED string consists of twenty HB LEDs, as the case may be for a street light. L1 VDD C1 VIN VIN D1 Q1 AL9910/A PWM_D GATE C2 LD ROSC CS C3 GND ROSC RSENSE Figure 5. Boost LED driver In a Boost converter, when the external MOSFET is ON the energy is stored in the inductor which is then delivered to the output when the external MOSFET switches OFF. If the energy stored in the inductor is not fully depleted by the next switching cycle (continuous conduction mode) the DC conversion between input and output voltage is given by: V − VIN V VOUT = IN Î D = OUT 1− D VOUT From the switching frequency, fOSC, the on-time of the MOSFET can be calculated: D t ON = fOSC From this the required inductor value can be determined by: V ∗t L = IN ON 0.3 ∗ ILED The Boost topology LED driver requires an output capacitor to deliver current to the LED string during the time that the external MOSFET is on. In boost LED driver topologies if the LEDs should become open circuit damage may occur to the power switch and so some form of detection should be present to provide Over-voltage detection/protection.
