4. working principle and system design
1. Power supply and start-up mechanism
After the system is powered on, the OUT pin provides the operating voltage to the chip through the internal JFET. When the OUT voltage exceeds 5V, the chip starts to work normally. In thyristor dimming applications, the OUT1 and OUT2 dual structure can provide a discharge circuit for the capacitor in the dimming circuit to ensure that the dimming process is stable and does not flicker.
2. Constant current control mechanism
The chip realizes high-precision constant current control by detecting the CS1/CS2 pin voltage. The output current is set by an external sampling resistor RCS, and its calculation formula is:
ILED = VREF /RCSwhere VREF is the internal reference voltage. The CS pin is equipped with a filter circuit to effectively suppress the on-noise interference.
3. Lamp string voltage matching
As a linear drive scheme, the CXLE86135E requires the LED string voltage to be close to the peak value of the input AC voltage. Taking 220VAC application as an example, if 18V high-voltage LED lamp beads are used, 14-15 lamps are usually connected in series to ensure that the system works in an efficient range.
4. Heat dissipation design and power improvement
In the linear architecture, the chip itself bears the voltage difference and power consumption, and the thermal design is very important. The following measures are recommended to improve output capacity:
-
Using aluminum substrate PCB
-
Increase the copper-clad area at the bottom of the chip
-
Optimization of heat dissipation structure of lamps and lanterns
-
Multi-chip parallel use
5. PCB Design Guide
In order to ensure system stability and thermal performance, PCB layout should pay attention to the following points:
-
Heat dissipation design: The heat sink at the bottom of the chip should be connected to the underlying copper foil or aluminum substrate through multiple vias to make full use of the PCB for heat dissipation.
-
Sampling Resistor Layout: The power ground wire of CS resistor should be as short and thick as possible, and star grounding method should be adopted to avoid noise interference.
-
High voltage isolation: The OUT pin is a high-voltage node and should be far away from the low-voltage signal line to prevent coupling interference.
-
current path optimizationPower loop area should be as small as possible to reduce EMI radiation and voltage ringing.
