A Product Line of Diodes Incorporated ZXLD1370 60V HIGH ACCURACY BUCK/BOOST/BUCK-BOOST LED DRIVER CONTROLLER Description The ZXLD1370 is an LED driver controller IC for driving external MOSFETs to drive high current LEDs. It is a multitopology controller enabling it to efficiently control the current through series connected LEDs. The multi-topology enables it to operate in buck, boost and buck-boost configurations. The 60V capability coupled with its multi-topology capability enables it to be used in a wide range of applications and drive in excess of 15 LEDs in series. The ZXLD1370 is a modified hysteretic controller using a patent pending control scheme providing high output current accuracy in all three modes of operation. High accuracy dimming is achieved through DC control and high frequency PWM control. The ZXLD1370 uses two pins for fault diagnosis. A flag output highlights a fault, while the multi-level status pin gives further information on the exact fault.

The functional range of VIN is the voltage range over which the device will function. Output current and device parameters may deviate from their normal values for VIN and VAUX voltages between 6V and 8V, depending upon load and conditions. 2. VAUX can be driven from a voltage higher than VIN to provide higher efficiency at low VIN voltages, but to avoid false operation; a voltage should not be applied to VAUX in the absence of a voltage at VIN. 3. The device contains circuitry to control the switching frequency to approximately 400kHz. The maximum and minimum operating frequency are not tested in production. 4. This gives maximum resolution at the expense of accuracy.

In the event of more than one fault/warning condition occurring, the higher priority condition will take precedence. E.g. `Excessive coil current' and `Out of regulation' occurring together will produce an output of 0.9V on the STATUS pin. The voltage levels on the STATUS output assume the Internal regulator to be in regulation and VADJ<=VREF. A reduction of the voltage on the STATUS pin will occur when the voltage on VIN is near the minimum value of 6V. 6. Flag is asserted if VSHP<2.5V or VSHP>3.5V 7. GATE is switched to the supply voltage VAUX for low values of VAUX (i.e. between 6V and approximately 12V). For VAUX>12V, GATE is clamped internally to prevent it exceeding 15V. 8. GATE is switched to PGND by an NMOS transistor 9. If tON exceeds tSTALL, the device will force GATE low to turn off the external switch and then initiate a restart cycle. During this phase, ADJ is grounded internally and the SHP pin is switched to its nominal operating voltage, before operation is allowed to resume. Restart cycles will be repeated automatically until the operating conditions are such that normal operation can be sustained. If tOFF exceeds tSTALL, the switch will remain off until normal operation is possible.

The device can be configured to operate in buck, boost, or buck-boost modes by suitable configuration of the external components as shown in the schematics shown in the device operation description. DEVICE OPERATION a) Buck mode - the most simple buck circuit is shown in Figure 13 LED current control in buck mode is achieved by sensing the coil current in the sense resistor Rs, connected between the two inputs of a current monitor within the control loop block. An output from the control loop drives the input of a comparator which drives the gate of the external NMOS switch transistor M1 via the internal Gate Driver. When the switch is on, current flows from VIN, via Rs, LED, coil and switch to ground. This current ramps up until an upper threshold value is reached. At this point GATE goes low, the switch is turned off and the current flows via Rs, LED, coil and D1 back to VIN. When the coil current has ramped down to a lower threshold value, GATE goes high, the switch is turned on again and the cycle of events repeats, resulting in continuous oscillation. Figure 13: Buck configuration The average current in the LED and coil is equal to the average of the maximum and minimum threshold currents. The ripple current (hysteresis) is equal to the difference between the thresholds. The control loop maintains the average LED current at the set level by adjusting the thresholds continuously to force the average current in the coil to the value demanded by the voltage on the ADJ pin. This minimizes variation in output current with changes in operating conditions. The control loop also attempts to minimize changes in switching frequency by varying the level of hysteresis. The hysteresis has a defined minimum (typ 5%) and a maximum (typ 30%), the frequency may deviate from nominal in extreme conditions. Loop compensation is achieved by a single external capacitor C2, connected between SHP and SGND.

An output from the control loop drives the input of a comparator which drives the gate of the external NMOS switch transistor M1 via the internal Gate Driver. In boost and buck-boost modes, when the switch is on, current flows from VIN, via Rs, coil and switch to ground. This current ramps up until an upper threshold value is reached. At this point GATE goes low, the switch is turned off and the current flows via Rs, coil, D1 and LED back to VIN (Buck-boost mode), or GND (Boost mode). When the coil current has ramped down to a lower threshold value, GATE goes high, the switch is turned on again and the cycle of events repeats, resulting in continuous oscillation. The average current in the coil is equal to the average of the maximum and minimum threshold currents and the ripple current (hysteresis) is Figure 15: Boost and Buck-Boost configuration equal to the difference between the thresholds. The average current in the LED is always less than the average current in the coil and the ratio between these currents is set by the values of external resistors RGI1 and RGI2. The peak LED current is equal to the peak coil current. The control loop maintains the average LED current at the set level by adjusting the thresholds and the hysteresis continuously to force the average current in the coil to the value demanded by the voltage on the ADJ and GI pins. This minimises variation in output current with changes in operating conditions. Loop compensation is achieved by a single external capacitor C2, connected between SHP and SGND.

ZXLD1370 Document number: DS32165 Rev. 2 - 2 11 of 33 www.diodes.com May 2010 (c) Diodes Incorporated A Product Line of Diodes Incorporated ZXLD1370 Application Information A basic ZXLD1370 application circuit is shown in Figure 13 and 15. External component selection is driven by the characteristics of the load and the input supply, since this will determine the kind of topology being used for the system. Component selection starts with the current setting procedure, the inductor/frequency setting and the MOSFET selection. Finally after selecting the freewheeling diode and the output capacitor (if needed), the application section will cover the PWM dimming and thermal feedback. Setting the output current The first choice when defining the output current is whether the device is operating with the load in series with the sense resistor (buck mode) or whether the load is not in series with the sense resistor (boost and buck-boost modes). The output current setting depends on the choice of the sense resistor Rs, the voltage on the ADJ pin and the voltage on the GI pin, according to the device working mode. The sense resistor Rs sets the coil current IRS. The ADJ pin may be connected directly to the internal 1.25V reference (VREF) to define the nominal 100% LED current. The ADJ pin can also be overdriven with an external dc voltage between 125mV and 2.5V to adjust the LED current proportionally between 10% and 200% of the nominal value. ADJ and GI are high impedance inputs within their normal operating voltage ranges. An internal 2.6V clamp protects the device against excessive input voltage and limits the maximum output current to approximately 4% above the maximum current set by VADJ if the maximum input voltage is exceeded. Below are provided the details of the LED current calculation both when the load in series with the sense resistor (buck mode) and when the load is not in series with the sense resistor (boost and buck-boost modes). In Buck mode, GI is connected to ADJ giving the ratio of average LED current (ILED) to average sense resistor/coil current (IRS). RS VIN ISM ILED = IRs = 225mV VADJ R S VREF REF If the ADJ and GI pins are connected to VREF directly, this becomes: ADJ ILED Therefore: = IRs = 225mV RS GI SGND Rs = 225mV ILED Figure 17: Buck configuration RS In Boost and Buck-boost mode GI is connected to ADJ through a voltage divider. With VADJ equal to VREF, the ratio defined by the resistor divider at the GI pin determines the ratio of average LED current (ILED) to average sense resistor/coil current (IRS). VIN ISM REF ILED = VGI R GI1 IRs = IRs VADJ (R GI1 + R GI2 ) 225mV VADJ RS VREF ADJ R GI2 GI Where IRs = R GI1 SGND When the ADJ pin is connected to VREF directly, this becomes: IRs = 225mV RS 12 of 33 www.diodes.com Figure 18: Boost and Buck-boost connection ZXLD1370 Document number: DS32165 Rev. 2 - 2 May 2010 (c) Diodes Incorporated A Product Line of Diodes Incorporated ZXLD1370 Therefore: Rs = R GI1 225mV (R GI1 + R GI2 ) ILED Note that the average LED current for a boost or buck-boost converter is always less than the average sense resistor current. For the ZXLD1370, the recommended potential divider ratio is given by: 0. 2 RGI1 0.50 (RGI1 + RGI2 ) It is possible to use a different combination of GI pin voltages and sense resistor values to set the LED current. In general the design procedure to follow is: Define input conditions in terms of VIN and IIN Set output conditions in terms of LED current and the number of LEDs Define controller topology - Buck, Boost or Buck-boost Calculate the maximum duty-cycle as: Buck mode D MAX = Boost mode VLEDs VINMIN VLEDS - VIN MIN VLEDS DMAX = Buck-boost mode DMAX = VLEDS VLEDS + VIN MIN Set the appropriate GI ratio according to the circuit duty and the max switch current admissible cycle limitations VGI R GI1 = 1 - D MAX VADJ (R GI1 + R GI2 ) - Set RGI1 as: - Calculate RGI2 as: 10k R GI1 200k R GI2 - D MAX x R GI1 1 - D MAX Calculate the sense resistor as: Rs = R GI1 225mV (R GI1 + R GI2 ) ILED If the potential divider ratio is greater than 0.64, the device detects that buck-mode operation is desired and the output current will deviate from the desired value. For example, as in the typical application circuit, in order to get ILED= 350mA with IRS=1.5A the ratio has to be set as: ZXLD1370 Document number: DS32165 Rev. 2 - 2 13 of 33 www.diodes.com May 2010 (c) Diodes Incorporated A Product Line of Diodes Incorporated ZXLD1370 ILED VGI RGI1 = = 0.23 IRS VADJ (RGI1 + RGI2) Setting RGI1= 33k it results R GI2 = R GI1( VADJ - 1) = 110k VGI This will result in: Rs = R GI1 225mV = 150m (R GI1 + R GI2 ) ILED Table 1 shows typical resistor values used to determine GIRATIO with E24 series resistors Table 1 GI ratio 0.2 0.25 0.3 0.35 0.4 0.45 0.5 RGI1 30k 33k 39k 30k 100k 51k 30k RG2 120k 100k 91k 56k 150k 62k 30k INDUCTOR/FREQUENCY SELECTION Recommended inductor values for the ZXLD1370 are in the range 22 H to 100 H. The chosen coil should have a saturation current higher than the peak sensed current and a continuous current rating above the required mean sensed current by at least 50%. The inductor value should be chosen to maintain operating duty cycle and switch 'on'/'off' times within the recommended limits over the supply voltage and load current range. The frequency compensation mechanism inside the chip tends to keep the frequency within the range 300kHz - 400kHz in most of the operating conditions. Nonetheless, the controller allows for higher frequencies when either the number of LEDs or the input voltage increases. The graphs below can be used to select a recommended inductor to maintain the ZXLD1370 switching frequency within a predetermined range when used in different topologies.

The following websites may be useful in finding suitable components www.coilcraft.com www.niccomp.com www.wuerth-elektronik.de MOSFET Selection The ZXLD130 requires an external NMOS FET as the main power switch with a voltage rating at least 15% higher than the maximum transistor voltage to ensure safe operation during the ringing of the switch node. The current rating is recommended to be at least 10% higher than the average transistor current. The power rating is then verified by calculating the resistive and switching power losses. P = Presistive + Pswitching Resistive power losses The resistive power losses are calculated using the RMS transistor current and the MOSFET on-resistance. Calculate the current for the different topologies as follows: Buck mode IMOSFET -MAX = D MAX x ILED Boost / Buck-boost mode IMOSFET -MAX = D MAX x ILED 1 - DMAX The approximate RMS current in the MOSFET will be: Buck mode IMOSFET -RMS =ILED D Boost / Buck-boost mode IMOSFET -RMS = D x ILED 1- D 18 of 33 www.diodes.com May 2010 (c) Diodes Incorporated ZXLD1370 Document number: DS32165 Rev. 2 - 2 A Product Line of Diodes Incorporated ZXLD1370 The resistive power dissipation of the MOSFET is: Presistive = IMOSFET-RMS x RDS -ON 2 Switching power losses Calculating the switching MOSFET's switching loss depends on many factors that influence both turn-on and turn-off. Using a first order rough approximation, the switching power dissipation of the MOSFET is: Pswitching = CRSS x V 2 IN x fsw x ILOAD IGATE where CRSS is the MOSFET's reverse-transfer capacitance (a data sheet parameter), fSW is the switching frequency, IGATE is the MOSFET gate-driver's sink/source current at the MOSFET's turn-on threshold. Matching the MOSFET with the controller is primarily based on the rise and fall time of the gate voltage. The best rise/fall time in the application is based on many requirements, such as EMI (conducted and radiated), switching losses, lead/circuit inductance, switching frequency, etc. How fast a MOSFET can be turned on and off is related to how fast the gate capacitance of the MOSFET can be charged and discharged. The relationship between C (and the relative total gate charge Qg), turn-on/turn-off time and the MOSFET driver current rating can be written as: dt = dV C Qg = I I where dt = turn-on/turn-off time dV = gate voltage C = gate capacitance = Qg/V I = drive current - constant current source (for the given voltage value) Here the constant current source" I " usually is approximated with the peak drive current at a given driver input voltage. Example 1) Using the DMN6068 MOSFET (VDS(MAX) = 60V, ID(MAX) = 8.5A): QG = 10.3nC at VGS = 10V ZXLD1370 IPEAK = I GATE = 300mA dt = Qg IPEAK = 10.3nC = 35ns 300mA Assuming that cumulatively the rise time and fall time can account for a maximum of 10% of the period, the maximum frequency allowed in this condition is: tPERIOD = 20*dt f = 1/ tPERIOD = 1.43MHz This frequency is well above the max frequency the device can handle, therefore the DNM6068 can be used with the ZXLD1370 in the whole spectrum of frequencies recommended for the device (from 300kHz to 1MHz). Example 2) Using the ZXMN6A09K (VDS(MAX) = 60V, ID(MAX) = 12.2A): QG = 29nC at VGS = 10V ZXLD1370 IPEAK = 300mA dt = Qg IPEAK = 29nC = 97ns 300mA Assuming that cumulatively the rise time and fall time can account for a maximum of 10% of the period, the maximum frequency allowed in this condition is: tPERIOD = 20*dt f = 1/ tPERIOD = 515kHz This frequency is within the recommended frequency range the device can handle, therefore the ZXMN6A09K is recommended to be used with the ZXLD1370 for frequencies from 300kHz to 500kHz). The recommended total gate charge for the MOSFET used in conjunction with the ZXLD1370 is less than 30nC. ZXLD1370 Document number: DS32165 Rev. 2 - 2 19 of 33 www.diodes.com May 2010 (c) Diodes Incorporated A Product Line of Diodes Incorporated ZXLD1370 Junction temperature estimation Finally, the ZXLD1370 junction temperature can be estimated using the following equations: Total supply current of ZXLD1370: IQTOT IQ + f * QG Where IQ = total quiescent current IQ-IN + IQ-AUX Power consumed by ZXLD1370 PIC = VIN * (IQ + f * Qg) Or in case of separate voltage supply, with VAUX < 15V PIC = VIN * IQ-IN + Vaux * (IQ-AUX + f * Qg) TJ = TA + PIC * RTH(JA)= TA + PIC * (RTH(JC)+ RTH(CA)) Where the total quiescent current IQTOT consists of the static supply current (IQ) and the current required to charge and discharge the gate of the power MOSFET. Moreover the part of thermal resistance between case and ambient depends on the PCB characteristics. DIODE SELECTION For maximum efficiency and performance, the rectifier (D1) should be a fast low capacitance Schottky diode* with low reverse leakage at the maximum operating voltage and temperature. The Schottky diode also provides better efficiency than silicon PN diodes, due to a combination of lower forward voltage and reduced recovery time. It is important to select parts with a peak current rating above the peak coil current and a continuous current rating higher than the maximum output load current. In particular, it is recommended to have a voltage rating at least 15% higher than the maximum transistor voltage to ensure safe operation during the ringing of the switch node and a current rating at least 10% higher than the average diode current. The power rating is verified by calculating the power loss through the diode. The higher forward voltage and overshoot due to reverse recovery time in silicon diodes will increase the peak voltage on the Drain of the external MOSFET. If a silicon diode is used, care should be taken to ensure that the total voltage appearing on the Drain of the external MOSFET, including supply ripple, does not exceed the specified maximum value. *A suitable Schottky diode would be PDS3100 (Diodes Inc). OUTPUT CAPACITOR An output capacitor may be required to limit interference or for specific EMC purposes. For boost and buck-boost regulators, the output capacitor provides energy to the load when the freewheeling diode is reverse biased during the first switching subinterval. An output capacitor in a buck topology will simply reduce the LED current ripple below the inductor current ripple. In other words, this capacitor changes the current waveform through the LED(s) from a triangular ramp to a more sinusoidal version without altering the mean current value. In all cases, the output capacitor is chosen to provide a desired current ripple of the LED current (usually recommended to be less than 40% of the average LED current). Buck: C OUTPUT = 8 x fSW IL -PP x rLED x ILED -PP Boost and Buck-boost C OUTPUT = where: * * * * fSW D x ILED -PP x rLED x ILED -PP IL is the ripple of the inductor current, usually 20% of the average sensed current ILED is the ripple of the LED current, it should be <40% of the LEDs average current fsw is the switching frequency (From graphs and calculator) rLED is the dynamic resistance of the LEDs string (n times the dynamic resistance of the single LED from the datasheet of the LED manufacturer). The output capacitor should be chosen to account for derating due to temperature and operating voltage. It must also have the necessary RMS current rating. The minimum RMS current for the output capacitor is calculated as follows: ZXLD1370 Document number: DS32165 Rev. 2 - 2 20 of 33 www.diodes.com May 2010 (c) Diodes Incorporated A Product Line of Diodes Incorporated ZXLD1370 Buck ICOUTPUT - RMS = ILED -PP 12 D MAX 1 - D MAX Boost and Buck-boost ICOUTPUT -RMS = ILED Ceramic capacitors with X7R dielectric are the best choice due to their high ripple current rating, long lifetime, and performance over the voltage and temperature ranges. INPUT CAPACITOR The input capacitor can be calculated knowing the input voltage ripple VIN-PP as follows: Buck CIN = Boost D x(1 - D)x ILED fSW x VIN-PP IL -PP 8 x fSW x VIN-PP D x ILED fSW x VIN-PP Use D = 0.5 as worst case CIN = Buck-boost CIN = Use D = DMAX as worst case The minimum RMS current for the output capacitor is calculated as follows: Buck ICIN-RMS = ILED x Dx(1 - D) Boost use D=0.5 as worst case ICIN-RMS = Buck-boost IL -PP 12 ICIN-RMS = ILED x D (1 - D) Use D=DMAX as worst case PWM OUTPUT CURRENT CONTROL & DIMMING The ZXLD1370 has a dedicated PWM dimming input that allows a wide dimming frequency range from 100Hz to 1kHz with up to 1000:1 resolution; however higher dimming frequencies can be used - at the expense of dimming dynamic range and accuracy. Typically, for a PWM frequency of 1kHz, the error on the current linearity is lower than 5%; in particular the accuracy is better than 1% for PWM from 5% to 100%. This is shown in the graph below: ZXLD1370 Document number: DS32165 Rev. 2 - 2 21 of 33 www.diodes.com May 2010 (c) Diodes Incorporated A Product Line of Diodes Incorporated ZXLD1370 Buck m ode - L=33uH - Rs = 150m - PW @ 1kHz M 1500.00 1250.00 LED current [mA] 1000.00 750.00 500.00 250.00 0.00 0 10 20 30 40 50 PWM PWM @ 1kHz Error 60 70 80 90 10% 9% 8% 7% 6% 5% 4% 3% 2% 1% 0% 100 Error Error Figure 27: LED current linearity and accuracy with PWM dimming at 1kHz For a PWM frequency of 100Hz, the error on the current linearity is lower than 2.5%; it becomes negligible for PWM greater than 5%.

It can be driven also by an open drain/collector transistor. In this case the designer can either use the internal pull-up network or an external pull-up network in order to speed-up PWM transitions, as shown in the Boost/ Buck-Boost section. Figure 29: PWM dimming from open collector switch Figure 30: PWM dimming from MCU ZXLD1370 Document number: DS32165 Rev. 2 - 2 22 of 33 www.diodes.com May 2010 (c) Diodes Incorporated A Product Line of Diodes Incorporated ZXLD1370 LED current can be adjusted digitally, by applying a low frequency PWM logic signal to the PWM pin to turn the controller on and off. This will produce an average output current proportional to the duty cycle of the control signal. During PWM operation, the device remains powered up and only the output switch is gated by the control signal. The PWM signal can achieve very high LED current resolution. In fact, dimming down from 100% to 0, a minimum pulse width of 2s can be achieved resulting in very high accuracy. While the maximum recommended pulse is for the PWM signal is10ms. 2s Gate < 10 ms 0V PWM < 10 ms 0V 2s Figure 31:PWM dimming minimum and maximum pulse The device can be put in standby by taking the PWM pin to ground, or pulling it to a voltage below 0.4V with a suitable open collector NPN or open drain NMOS transistor, for a time exceeding 15ms (nominal). In the shutdown state, most of the circuitry inside the device is switched off and residual quiescent current will be typically 90A. In particular, the Status pin will go down to GND while the FLAG and REF pins will stay at their nominal values.

An external NTC thermistor and resistor can therefore be connected as shown below to set the voltage on the TADJ pin to 625mV at the required temperature threshold. This will give 100% LED current below the threshold temperature and a falling current above it as shown in the graph. The temperature threshold can be altered by adjusting the value of Rth and/or the thermistor to suit the requirements of the chosen LED. The Thermal Control feature can be disabled by connecting TADJ to REF. Here is a simple procedure to design the thermal feedback circuit: 1) 2) 3) Select the temperature threshold Tthreshold at which the current must start to decrease Select the Thermistor TH1 (both resistive value at 25C and beta) Select the value of the resistor Rth as Rth = TH at Tthreshold Figure 33: Thermal feedback network For example, 1) 2) 3) Temperature threshold Tthreshold = 70C TH1 = 10k at 25C and beta= 3500 Rth = TH at Tthreshold = 3.3k TH = 3.3k @ 70C Over-Temperature Shutdown The ZXLD1370 incorporates an over-temperature shutdown circuit to protect against damage caused by excessive die temperature. A warning signal is generated on the STATUS output when die temperature exceeds 125C nominal and the output is disabled when die temperature exceeds 150C nominal. Normal operation resumes when the device cools back down to 125C. ZXLD1370 Document number: DS32165 Rev. 2 - 2 24 of 33 www.diodes.com May 2010 (c) Diodes Incorporated A Product Line of Diodes Incorporated ZXLD1370 FLAG/STATUS Outputs The FLAG/STATUS outputs provide a warning of extreme operating or fault conditions. FLAG is an open-drain logic output, which is normally off, but switches low to indicate that a warning, or fault condition exists. STATUS is a DAC output, which is normally high (4.5V), but switches to a lower voltage to indicate the nature of the warning/fault. Conditions monitored, the method of detection and the nominal STATUS output voltage are given in the following table: Table 2 Warning/Fault condition Normal operation Supply under-voltage Output current out of regulation (Note 10) Driver stalled with switch `on', or `off' (Note 11) Device temperature above maximum recommended operating value Sense resistor current IRS above specified maximum Notes: Severity (Note 9) 1 2 2 2 3 4 Monitored parameters VAUX<5.6V VIN<5.6V VSHP outside normal voltage range tON, or tOFF>100s TJ>125C VSENSE>0.32V FLAG H L L L L L L Nominal STATUS voltage 4.5 4.5 3.6 3.6 3.6 1.8 0.9 9. Severity 1 denotes lowest severity. 10. This warning will be indicated if the output power demand is higher than the available input power; the loop may not be able to maintain regulation. 11. This warning will be indicated if the gate pin stays at the same level for greater than 100us (e.g. the output transistor cannot pass enough current to reach the upper switching threshold). FLAG VOLTAGE VREF 0V 4.5V Normal Operations 3.6V VAUX UVLO STATUS VOLTAGE - VIN UVLO - STALL - OUT of REG 2.7V 1.8V Over Temperature 0.9V Over Current 0A 0 1 2 SEVERITY 3 4 Fig 34: Status levels In the event of more than one fault/warning condition occurring, the higher severity condition will take precedence. E.g. `Excessive coil current' and `Out of regulation' occurring together will produce an output of 0.9V on the STATUS pin. If VADJ>1.7V, VSENSE may be greater than the excess coil current threshold in normal operation and an error will be reported. Hence, STATUS and FLAG are only guaranteed for VADJ<=VREF. ZXLD1370 Document number: DS32165 Rev. 2 - 2 25 of 33 www.diodes.com May 2010 (c) Diodes Incorporated A Product Line of Diodes Incorporated ZXLD1370 Diagnostic signals should be ignored during the device start - up for 100s. The device start up sequence will be initiated both during the first power on of the device or after the PWM signal is kept low for more than 15ms, initiating the standby state of the device. In particular, during the first 100s the diagnostic is signaling an over-current then an out-of-regulation status. These two events are due to the charging of the inductor and are not true fault conditions. VREF FLAG 0V STATUS O ut of r e g u la t io n O ver C u rre n t 2 2 5 m V /R 1 Coil current 0A 100us Fig 35: Diagnostic during Start-up Boosting VAUX supply voltage in Boost and Buck-Boost mode When the input voltage is lower than 8V, the gate voltage will also be lower 8V. This means that depending on the characteristics of the external MOSFET, the gate voltage may not be enough to fully enhance the power MOSFET. This boosting technique is particularly important when the output MOSFET is operating at full current, since the boost circuit allows the gate voltage to be higher than 12V. This guarantees that the MOSFET is fully enhanced reducing both the power dissipation and the risk of thermal runaway of the MOSFET itself. An extra diode D2 and decoupling capacitor C3 can be used, as shown below in figure 36, to generate a boosted voltage at VAUX when the input supply voltage at VIN is below 8V. This enables the device to operate with full output current when VIN is at the minimum value of 6V. In the case of a low voltage threshold MOSFET, the bootstrap circuit is generally not required. Fig 36: Bootstrap circuit for Boost and Buck-boost low voltage operations The resistor R2 can be used to limit the current in the bootstrap circuit in order to reduce the impact of the circuit itself on the LED accuracy. The impact on the LED current is usually a decrease of maximum 5% compared to the nominal current value set by the sense resistor. The Zener diode D3 is used to limit the voltage on the VAUX pin to less than 60V. Due to the increased number of components and the loss of current accuracy, the bootstrap circuit is recommended only when the system has to operate continuously in conditions of low input voltage (between 6 and 8V) and high load current. Other circumstances such as low input voltage at low load current, or transient low input voltage at high current should be evaluated keeping account of the external MOSFET power dissipation. Over-voltage Protection ZXLD1370 Document number: DS32165 Rev. 2 - 2 26 of 33 www.diodes.com May 2010 (c) Diodes Incorporated A Product Line of Diodes Incorporated ZXLD1370 The ZXLD1370 is inherently protected against open-circuit load when used in Buck configuration. However care has to be taken with open-circuit load conditions in Buck-Boost or Boost configurations. This is because in these configurations there is no internal open-circuit protection mechanism for the external MOSFET. In this case an Over-Voltage-Protection (OVP) network should be provided externally to the MOSFET to avoid damage due to open circuit conditions. This is shown in Figure 33 below, highlighted in the dotted blue box. Fig 37: OVP circuit The zener voltage is determined according to: Vz = VLEDMAX +10% Take care of the max voltage drop on the Q2 MOSFET gate. PCB Layout considerations PCB layout is a fundamental activity to get the most of the device in all configurations. In the following section it is possible to find some important insight to design with the ZXLD1370 both in Buck and Buck-Boost/Boost configurations. SHP pin Inductor, Switch and Freewheeling diode VIN / VAUX decoupling Figure 38: Circuit Layout Here are some considerations useful for the PCB layout: In order to avoid ringing due to stray inductances, the inductor L1, the anode of D1 and the drain of Q1 should be placed as close together as possible. ZXLD1370 Document number: DS32165 Rev. 2 - 2 27 of 33 www.diodes.com May 2010 (c) Diodes Incorporated A Product Line of Diodes Incorporated ZXLD1370 The shaping capacitor C1 is fundamental for the stability of the control loop. To this end it should be placed no more than 5mm from the SHP pin. Input voltage pins, VIN and VAUX, need to be decoupled. It is recommended to use two ceramic capacitors of 2.2uF, X7R, 100V (C3 and C4). In addition to these capacitors, it is suggested to add two ceramic capacitors of 1uF, X7R, 100V each (C2, C8), as well as a further decoupling capacitor of 100nF close to the VIN/VAUX pins (C9). VIN and VAUX pins can be short-circuited when the device is used in buck mode, or can be driven from a separate supply.
