HV9906DB2
Off-Line Current Source Controller
Introduction
The Supertex HV9906DB2 demo board contains all
circuitry necessary to demonstrate the features of the
HV9906 second order power supply controller. The
power converter of the demo board consists of an
input buck-boost stage and an output buck stage.
The output voltage polarity is negative. Due to its
unique quadratic input-to-output DC voltage transfer
ratio, the converter can operate directly off AC line to
produce low-voltage output without need for
electrolytic capacitors. HV9906 is designed for
optimal controlling this type of power converter or
other types of two-stage multi-converters.
The board is optimized for driving a 6V 400mA
(700mA max.) LED. However, it may be modified to
meet custom requirements.

Board Layout and Connections
WARNING!!!
Do not connect to scope ground or to the ground of other earth-grounded instruments. Doing so will short the AC line,
resulting in damage to the circuit and/or instruments. Either use an isolation transformer on the AC line, use a
differential probe, or use a floating, battery-powered instrument to make measurements.
WARNING!!!
No galvanic isolation. Dangerous voltages are present when connected to the AC mains.

Instructions
NEG, RTN
Connect your LED to these terminals: negative to
NEG, positive to RTN.
E1, E2
Connect 80 to 135VAC, 60Hz line source to these
terminals: line to E1, neutral to E2. The input is
protected with a 0.5A fuse.
IMPORTANT: Make sure
that your LED is connected to NEG and RTN
terminals. There is no open circuit protection
available in this demo board. Contact Supertex, Inc.
for the application circuit if protection is required.
GND
This is circuit common.
Note that since galvanic isolation is not provided,
connecting this point to an earth-grounded instrument
(such as an oscilloscope) will short the AC line,
resulting in circuit and/or instrument damage.
Also note that GND may be at higher potential with
respect to earth ground, even if the AC is switched
off. Use caution!
Do not connect to earth-ground.
Setting Output Current
Output current is preset to 400mA for this board.
Output current can be re-programmed according to
the following equation:

AC line voltage cusps.

Waveform Summary:
Fig. 3 shows continuous nature of the output
current. Peak-to-average current ratio is close to
unity.
Fig. 4 shows that current drops out of regulation
for short periods of time only during the AC line
cusps. (Switching ripple component is attenuated
for clarity.)
Fig. 5 shows the input current nature. The
converter delivers full output power to the output
down to very low input voltage.
