    AC-DC such as Power Factor Correction (PFC) flyback or PFC + LLC. ILD8150 is flexible enough to use up to 1.5 A. The hysteretic current control is extremely fast and always stable without the need for any loop compensation. A maximum duty cycle of up to 99 percent enables use in applications where the input and output voltage are close to each other.

    ILD8150 80 V high side buck LED driver IC with hybrid dimming Circuit description Circuit description Operation BOOT Cboot Vout Iout Cout Rfltr Cfltr Typical application circuit Figure 1 2.1.1 Current regulation Figure 1 shows the typical application circuit. Current is controlled by the CS pin, which compares the voltage drop on R to internal references.
  • Page 5: Cycle-By-Cycle Current Limitation

    Cycle-by-cycle current limitation Because ILD8150 operates in current mode, it does not allow operation with higher current than it sets. Output current is limited cycle-by-cycle. Thus, it safely operates even when the LED output gets shorted. R short- circuit may cause damage.
  • Page 6: Dimming

    ILD8150 80 V high side buck LED driver IC with hybrid dimming Circuit description 2.2.3 Dimming Input dimming signal is PWM with minimal amplitude V with frequency f . Current accuracy over DIM_input dimming is high enough, and so is the feedback speed, that any input voltage change does not affect output current (no flicker).
  • Page 7: Dim-To-Off

    2.2.4 Dim-to-off ILD8150 turns the output stage off when the PWM dimming input signal duty cycle is less than , and on when the PWM dimming input signal duty cycle is higher than D , as shown in Figure 7.

    ILD8150 80 V high side buck LED driver IC with hybrid dimming Circuit description 2.2.6 Shut-down ILD8150 has a shut-down control pin SD. If the voltage on the pin is below low-threshold V during SD_IL recognition time more than t the IC goes to shut-down mode with low self-consumption current.

    ILD8150 80 V high side buck LED driver IC with hybrid dimming Circuit description For lower output voltage ripple a bigger output capacitor can be used.
