• Halogen and Antimony Free. “Green” Device (Note 3)
Notes: 1. No purposely added lead. Fully EU Directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS) & 2011/65/EU (RoHS 2) compliant.
2. See http://www.diodes.com/quality/lead_free.html for more information about Diodes Incorporated’s definitions of Halogen- and Antimony-free, "Green"
and Lead-free.
3. Halogen- and Antimony-free "Green” products are defined as those which contain <900ppm bromine, <900ppm chlorine (<1500ppm total Br + Cl) and
<1000ppm antimony compounds.
CS 2 2 Senses LED string and external MOSFET switch current
GND 3 3 Device Ground
Gate 4 4 Drives the gate of the external MOSFET switch.
PWM_D 5 5 Low Frequency PWM Dimming pin, also Enable input. Internal 200kΩ pull-down to GND.
Internally regulated supply voltage.

Can supply up to 1 mA for external circuitry. A sufficient storage capacitor is used to provide storage when
the rectified AC input is near the zero crossing.
LD 7 7
Linear Dimming Input. Changes the current limit threshold at current sense comparator and changes the
average LED current.
Oscillator Control. A resistor connected between this pin and ground sets the PWM frequency. The devices

can be switched into constant off time (PFM) mode by connecting the external oscillator resistor between
pin and the gate of the external MOSFET.

Notes: 4. Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those listed in the operational sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure
to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
All voltages are with respect to Ground. Currents are positive into, negative out of the specified terminal.
5. Semiconductor devices are ESD sensitive and may be damaged by exposure to ESD events. Suitable ESD precautions should be taken when handling and transporting these devices

Notes: 6. Maximum ambient temperature range is limited by allowable power dissipation. The Exposed pad SO-8EP with its lower thermal impedance allows
the variants using this package to extend the allowable maximum ambient temperature range.
7. When using the AL9910 in isolated LED lamps an auxiliary winding might be used.
9. Also limited by package power dissipation limit, whichever is lower.
10. Full ambient temperature range for AL9910-5S, AL9910AS and AL9910S is -40 to +85°C; for AL9910-5SP, AL9910ASP and AL9910SP is
-40°C to +105°C.
