2. Test Procedure
2.1 Line/Load Regulation and Efficiency Measurement Procedure
1. Connect LV5011MD2GEVB like upper Figure1. An external LED load must be used to start up
the EVB.
2. Prior to turning on the AC source, set the voltage to 230V
AC
.
3. Turn on the AC Source.
4. Record the output voltage readings from Volt Meter and the output current reading from AMP
Meter. And Record the input power reading from Power Meter.
5. Change V
AC
from 198V
AC
to 264V
AC
and perform “4”.
6. Refer to Section 2.2 for shutdown procedure.
2.2 Equipment Shutdown
1. Turn off equipment.
2. Make sure capacitors are discharged.
2.3 Phase Angle Decode vs LED Current (at dimming)
1. Connect LV5011MD2GEVB like upper Figure1. An external LED load must be used to start up
the EVB.
2. Prior to turning on the AC source, set the voltage to 230V
AC
.
3. Monitor the Dimmer output AC voltage between the neutral and the line by using the
oscilloscope differential probe.
4. Turn on the AC Source.
5. Maximize the dimmer ratio.
6. Record the output voltage readings from Volt Meter and the output current reading from AMP
Meter. And Record the input power reading from Power Meter. And Record the phase angle of
Dimmer output reading from the oscilloscope differential probe.
7. Gradually lower the Dimming ratio and perform "6". Repeat it until the Dimming ratio is
minimized.
8. Refer to Section 2.2 for shutdown procedure.
