HV9801A
Application Information
Current Control
Continuous Conduction Mode
The HV9801A is designed for control of a buck converter
operating in continuous conduction mode.
CCM operation is characterized by converter operation with
non-zero inductor current throughout the switching cycle.
Such operation can be achieved by selection of the induc-
tance.
LED Current
The HV9801A regulates the LED current with an accuracy
far superior to that of competing peak current mode control-
lers.
Average LED current is set by the current sense resistor
RCS and the current regulator reference voltage :
V = (I) • (R)
250mV = (I
LED
) • (R
RCS
)
For example, a 2Ω resistor correponds to a 125mA (aver-
age) LED current.
Current Control Performance
The control method of the HV9801A virtually eliminates the
regulation errors associated with peak current mode control-
lers, such as errors caused by: inductor tolerance; propa-
gation delay of the current sense comparator; tolerance in
the oscillator frequency or off-timer; and changes in line and
load voltage.
Fig. 1 compares the load regulation of the HV9801A and that
of a device with peak current control. The difference in load
regulation between the HV9801A and the HV9910B, a peak
current regulator, is clearly visible.

HV9801A
Duty Cycle, Off-time, On-time, Inductor
Duty cycle
The duty cycle (D) is related to the load voltage (V
LED
) and
input voltage (V
BUS
) by the simple relation:
V
OUT
= (D) • (V
IN
)
V
LED
= (D) • (V
BUS
)
Off-time
The HV9801A employs constant off-time control. Operation
with constant off-time suppresses subharmonic oscillation.
Switching period and switching frequency are related to on-
time and off-time as follows:
T
SW
= (T
ON
+ T
OFF
)
F
SW
= 1 / T
SW
On-time is related to off-time and duty cycle as follows:
D = (T
ON
) / (T
ON
+ T
OFF
)
With a given T
OFF
, the HV9801A dynamically adjusts T
ON
to
regulate the LED current. Specifically, T
ON
adapts to the duty
cycle associated with given V
BUS
and V
LED
.
Off-time Programming
Off-time is programmed by the R
T
resistor:
T
OFF
= (A) • (R
RT
) + B
where A = 40ps / Ω and B = 300ns
For instance, a 200kΩ resistor corresponds to 8.3μs off-time.
An acceptable range for RT is 30kΩ to 1MΩ, corresponding
to an off-time range between 1.5µs and 40.3µs.
Inductor
The converter should operate in continuous conduction
mode. As such, the inductor current should not fall to zero
within a switching cycle, and inductor current ripple should
be sized accordingly.
A common choice for peak-to-peak Inductor current ripple
(PPR) is 30 to 40% of nominal LED current.
Inductance can be calculated from the current drop during
off-time:
(L) • (ΔI) = (V) • (ΔT)
(L) • (PPR) • (I
LED
) = (V
LED
) • (T
OFF
)
For instance, 30% PPR on 350mA average current equates
to 105mA ripple, which together with 5µs off-time, and 30V
LED string voltage corresponds to 1.43mH inductance.
A design with 30V LED voltage and with 150V bus voltage
corresponds to 20% duty cycle; respectively, with a 120V
bus voltage to 25% duty cycle. 20% duty cycle corresponds
to 1.25µs on-time, 25% duty cycle corresponds to 1.67µs.
Hence, the switching frequency is 167kHz at 150V bus volt-
age and 150kHz at 120V bus voltage.
Maximum Duty Cycle
Duty cycle should be limited to the specified maximum
(80%). Accordingly, the LED string voltage and the bus volt-
age are limited to the same ratio. Operation at a larger duty
cycle results in an LED current lower than programmed.
Minimum Duty Cycle
Duty cycle is limited on the low side by the minimum on-time
specification (760ns). Operation at a smaller on-time causes
the LED current to exceed the programmed value.
LED string voltage can not be made arbitrarily low. Minimum
LED voltage can be determined from the following:
D
MIN
= (T
ONX
) / (T
OFF
+ T
ONX
)
V
LED
= (D
MIN
) • (V
BUS
)
For instance, with 5µs off-time, the duty cycle should be kept
above 13%. Such a duty cycle corresponds to an LED string
voltage of 19.5V at 150V bus voltage.
A design requiring a lower LED string voltage requires
change to a longer off-time.
Short Circuit Protection
A rise of the LED current sense signal above 440mV (176%
of nominal) trips the short circuit comparator thereby caus-
ing the converter to switch to hiccup mode. In hiccup mode,
off-time is lengthened to about 750µs to allow the inductor
current to drop to a safe level.
