The average current mode control is suitable for DC/DC converters where both voltage and current feedback are required, as well as for Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamps (CCFL) backlight applications for small and large Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD). OZT1060 operates in a zero-voltage switching mode that minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI). In addition, OZT1060 achieves a high power-conversion efficiency 09/03/04 Copyright 2004 by O2Micro OZT1060 utilizes a pulse width modulation (PWM) dimming method to achieve a wide dimming range. The IC performs the CCFL dimming function with an analog or low frequency PWM control. The PWM frequency is userdefined. To avoid over-shoot and in-rush current to the CCFLs during ignition, a soft start function is provided for reliable CCFL operation. The controller provides open-lamp protection and over-voltage protection, while providing an appropriate response for either open-lamp ignition or removal of a CCFL during normal operation. Intelligent open-lamp protection and over voltage protection provides design flexibility with various transformer characteristics. Openlamp protection time is user-defined. In addition, OZT1060 provides a shutdown delay function that will keep the inverter module in normal operation for a short period of time if the input voltage suddenly drops and subsequently resumes to a normal level. The shutdown delay time is user-defined. OZT1060 provides under-voltage lockout protection and will disable the IC if VDDA falls below a threshold. OZT1060 will resume normal operation when VDDA exceeds the threshold. To reset the IC, toggle the enable (ENA) pin. OZT1060 operates with a standby current of approximately 200uA.

The following discussions will address the OZT1060 driving a DC/AC CCFL application. Refer to the Functional Block Diagram in Figure 1, page 6 and the Reference Application Circuit in Figure 2 , page 9. The drive circuit consists of four outputs, PDR_A, NDR_B, PDR_C and NDR_D, (pins 19, 20, 12 and 11) respectively. The drive circuit is designed to achieve high efficiency, zero-voltage switching operation. The four power MOSFET gate output drives, PDR_A, NDR_B, PDR_C and NDR_D are designed such that switches QA/QB and QC/QD never turn-on simultaneously. The configuration prevents any shoot-through issues associated with bridge-type power conversion applications. CCFL current regulation is achieved by adjusting the overlap conduction between diagonal switches QA/QD and QB/QC. The overlap is adjusted when the power source voltage varies. The Protection Block intelligently monitors and differentiates the striking condition and openlamp condition. The open-lamp protection function disables the drive circuit if a fault condition is encountered. The Reference Block provides a precision reference voltage for both internal and external uses. The LPWM Generator Block provides a low frequency PWM (LPWM) function that provides wide dimming control for the CCFLs. The LPWM frequency is user-defined by connecting an external capacitor to LCT (pin 15). An analog voltage at DIM (pin 14) is compared with the LCT waveform that yields a LPWM signal to control the power delivered to the CCFLs. OZT1060 is enabled with a voltage greater than 2V applied to ENA (pin 3). A voltage of less than 1V to ENA pin will disable the controller. Toggling ENA (pin 3) from High-Low-High will reset the controller. A current source of 30uA coupled with an external capacitor and external resistor connected to pin 1 controls the shutdown delay time. The shutdown delay time will keep the inverter module in normal operation for a short period of time if the input voltage suddenly drops and subsequently increases to a normal level. The shutdown delay time is user-defined. The Under-Voltage Lockout block provides a brown-out period during which the output signals are disabled while the VDDA voltage drops below a ~3.4V threshold. OZT1060 resumes normal operation once VDDA voltage reaches a voltage threshold of greater than ~4.3V. Soft-start circuitry provides a gradual increase in power to the drive circuit to power the CCFLs during the ignition period. The Soft-Start Time (SST) is user-defined by an external capacitor connected to SST (pin 4) coupled with an SST current source of 5.5uA. A High Frequency Oscillator Block generates a user-defined operating frequency determined by an external capacitor (C5) and timing resistor (R9) connected to CT (pin 18) and RT (pin 17) respectively. An external resistor (R10) connected to RT1 (pin 8) in parallel with RT determines the striking frequency. The current control loop monitors CCFL current that is sensed with a voltage at FB (pin 9). The voltage at FB (pin 9) is input to an Error Amplifier and the output, CMP (pin 10), regulates the CCFL current. OZT1060 provides an Over-Voltage Protection (OVP) function to safely operate the CCFLs under all conditions. The OVP Block regulates the striking voltage for the CCFL during start-up. The striking time is user-defined and determined by an external capacitor connected to CTIMR (pin 1) coupled with the CTIMR current source of 2.6uA.

Steady-State Operation Referring to the example schematic shown in Figure 2, page 9, OZT1060 drives a full-bridge power train where the transformer couples the energy from the power supply source to the CCFL. The switches in the bridge denoted as QA, QB, QC and QD are configured such that the transistors in each pair, QA/QB and QC/QD, are turned-on complementarily. The turn-on duration of the diagonal switches, QA/QD and QB/QC, simultaneously determines the amount of energy delivered to the transformer and subsequently to the CCFL. The current in the CCFL is sensed and regulated by adjusting the turn-on time (overlap) for both diagonal switches. This is accomplished through an error amplifier in the current feedback loop. A voltage loop is used to regulate the output voltage for CCFL ignition and is programmable by using a capacitor divider (C8/C13). Over Voltage Protection (OVP) limits the transformer voltage under an open-lamp condition. A soft-start circuit ensures a gradual increase in power to the CCFL. The soft-start capacitor (C9) determines the rate of rise of the voltage on the SST pin. Meanwhile, the voltage level determines the turn-on time of the diagonal switches QA/QD and QB/QC. The output drives for the power MOSFET gates include PDR_A, NDR_B, PDR_C and NDR_D that output a complementary square pulse. The operation of the four switches is implemented with zero-voltage switching that provides a highefficiency power conversion. 2. Enable OZT1060 is enabled when the voltage on ENA (pin 3) is greater than 2V. A voltage of less than 1V disables the IC. When the inverter controller is disabled, it draws approximately 200uA. An under-voltage lockout protection feature is provided that will disable the IC if VDDA voltage drops below an ~3.4V threshold. The IC will resume normal operation once VDDA reaches a threshold voltage of greater than ~4.3V. the voltage at ENA (pin 3) is greater than 2V. The soft-start time is determined by an external capacitor (C9) connected to the SST (pin 4). At start-up, as C9 charges via a charging current, the voltage level at the capacitor controls the gradual increase in power delivered to the transformer T1. 4. Ignition The OZT1060 provides an option of selecting a different frequency for striking the CCFLs. The striking time is user-defined and determined by an external capacitor CCTIMR (C6) and external resistor RCTIMR (R5) connected to CTIMR (pin 1). The approximate striking time is determined by the following equation. T[second] = CCTIMR[µF] x (3-(RCTIMR[kΩ] x 0.0026)) 2.6 The approximate striking frequency is determined by the following equation. 65•10 4 fstriking[kHz] = CCT[pF]•(RRT // RRT1) [kΩ] Note: RRT // RRT1 means RRT is in parallel with RRT.1. 5. Normal Operation Once the IC is enabled, the voltage at SST (pin 4) controls the rate of power delivered to the load. SST voltage increases to a level such that the CCFLs are ignited. The striking frequency is determined by external components R10, R9 and C5 connected to RT1 (pin 8), RT (pin 17) and CT (pin 18) respectively. Once the external resistor R16 senses sufficient current, the control loop takes control and regulates the CCFL current. The normal operating frequency is determined by the combination of external resistor R9 and external capacitor C5. The operating frequency is approximated by the following equation. 65•10 4 fop[kHz] = 3. Soft-Start CCT[pF]•RRT[kΩ] To avoid component stresses and in-rush current to the CCFLs during ignition, a soft start function is implemented to provide reliable CCFL operation. The soft-start function is initiated when CONFIDENTIAL OZT1060-DS-1.2 Page 7 Recipient #102292 printed on 1/10/2005. This is a ONE-TIME copy. Updates will not be provided. OZT1060 6. Open Lamp Protection If the controller encounters an open lamp, damaged lamp or lamp removal during normal operation, the control loop generates a protection signal and will immediately shutdown the controller. OZT1060 provides a shutdown delay feature that keeps the inverter module in normal operation if the input voltage suddenly drops and subsequently recovers. The shutdown delay time is user-defined by external resistor RCTIMR (R5) and external capacitor CCTIMR (C6) connected to CTIMR (pin 1). The shutdown delay time is approximated by the following equation: CCTIMR[µF] x (3 – (RCTIMR [kΩ] * 0.03)) T[second] = 30 7. Over-Voltage Protection & Striking Time During start-up, once the voltage at the transformer secondary reaches a programmed threshold, the control loop takes over and regulates the voltage at the transformer secondary. SST voltage at pin 4 is held constant and CTIMR is activated to provide additional time to ignite an aged CCFL. If no current is sensed after approximately 1 to 2 seconds, the controller shuts down. Toggling the ENA pin will reset the controller. 8. PWM Dimming Control OZT1060 provides a low frequency PWM (LPWM) dimming function to perform a wide dimming range of 0% to 100%. The LPWM frequency is determined by external capacitor C10 connected to LCT (pin 15). The frequency is approximated by the following equation. Note: RCTIMR (R5) value equal or greater than 110kΩ will result in zero delay time. Toggling ENA (pin 3) from High-Low-High resets the controller. CONFIDENTIAL 1496 f LF[Hz] = CLCT[nF] The LPWM frequency is user-defined by the selection of external capacitor C10. An analog voltage at DIM (pin 14) is compared with the LCT waveform that yields a LPWM signal to control the power delivered to the CCFLs. The typical peak and valley of the LCT waveform is ~2.06V and ~0.31V respectively. OZT1060-DS-1.2 Page 8 Recipient #102292 printed on 1/10/2005. This is a ONE-TIME copy. Updates will not be provided.
