General Description
The HV9911 is an LED driver IC designed to control
single-switch PWM converters (buck, boost,
buck-boost and SEPIC) in a Constant Frequency or
Constant Off-time mode. The controller uses a peak
current control scheme with programmable slope
compensation
and
includes
an
internal
transconductance amplifier to control the output current
in closed loop, enabling high output current accuracy.
In the Constant Frequency mode, multiple HV9911s
can be synchronized with each other or with an
external clock using the sync pin. Programmable
MOSFET current limit enables current limiting during
Input Undervoltage and Output Overload conditions.
The IC also includes a 0.2A source and 0.4A sink gate
driver for high-power applications. An internal
9V–250V linear regulator powers the IC, eliminating the
need for a separate power supply. The HV9911
provides a TTL-compatible PWM dimming input that
can accept an external control signal with a duty ratio
of 0%–100% and a frequency of up to a few kilohertz.
The IC also provides a FAULT output which, can be
used to disconnect the LEDs in case of a Fault
condition, using an external disconnect FET.
The HV9911-based LED driver is ideal for RGB
backlight applications with DC inputs. HV9911-based
LED lamp drivers can achieve efficiency in excess of
90% for buck and boost applications.
Applications
• RGB Backlight Applications
• Battery-powered LED Lamps
