1 Description

The L6520/1 is the first highly integrated ballast controller in the market able to drive both BJTs and MOSFETs, providing all the necessary protections to ensure the maximum reliability of the application in compliance with major safety and power consumption regulations.
By adopting BJTs switches in the application, the IC allows to replace more expensive MOSFETs, strongly reducing the system cost without compromises.
The IC represents also the best and cost effective solution to replace self oscillating solutions when the key requirement is the reliability of the ballast. The benefits are an increased MTBF and a reduction of the costs due to the return from the field.
The higher level of flexibility and integration provided allows the possibility to quickly design ballast with any kind of lamp topology/size/power, without limitations. Depending on the power of the lamp, the IC can work without PFC, with passive PFC or with active PFC. In the latter case the L6562A from STMicroelectronics is the suggested IC for the most cost effective solution.
The IC is fully programmable using only resistors and offers over current protections, choke saturation control and hard switching protection thanks to a sophisticated current control circuit (CCC). In ignition, the CCC limits both the maximum lamp voltage in case of old or broken lamp, and also the lamp current in case of inductor saturation.
When the IC is driving bipolar transistors, a variable dead time ensures the correct base discharge time avoiding cross conduction phenomena. Moreover, the IC prevents the failure due to the lamp's end of life (EOL).

5.1 Start-up

During the first start-up ramp of the supply voltage (VCC) both driver outputs, LSD and HSD, are low impedance to ground (Isink 20 mA min). Once the V voltage V
the IC starts its operation. During the first 100 µs the IC senses the status
CC(ON)
of FPRE pin to detect the programmed preheating frequency and the selected ignition mode (instant or preheated start). When all the IC internal functions are ready, the driver-outputs are released.
If the preheated start is selected, the half-bridge oscillates at the programmed preheating frequency, otherwise it starts from 85 kHz (typ.).

5.2 Preheating and instant start

The preheating time is 1.5 s (typ.) in the L6520 and 0.8 s (typ.) in the L6521. The FPRE pin embeds a precise current reference: the voltage read by this pin sets the preheating frequency or enables the instant start. If the FPRE pin is connected to ground, the instant start is active and the IC runs immediately into ignition sequence from the starting frequency of 85 kHz. If the pin FPRE is connected to a resistor equal or higher than 196 Ω, the preheating frequency can be programmed from 55 kHz upwards till 100 kHz (1.5 kHz/step) accordingly to Table 6. For the best precision the resistor tolerance should be less or equal to 1%. After the preheating sequence, the IC runs into ignition mode.

5.3 Ignition

During the ignition sequence the output frequency ramps down from the programmed preheating frequency to the fixed run frequency with a fixed rate df the instant start is selected, the frequency ramps down from 85 kHz to 46.6 kHz (typ.) with the same rate.
The current control circuit limits the maximum lamp voltage (OCPH) in case of old or broken lamp and it is able to control the lamp current in case of inductor saturation (CSC).
The ignition phase lasts for maximum 200 ms. If the Run frequency is not reached during ignition phase, the IC is turned off (latched).

5.4 Run mode

The run frequency is internally set to 46.6 kHz.
The HSD and LSD pins drive respectively the high side and the low side switches. The potential isolation to the high side switch is realized by a pulse transformer. The HSD and LSD drivers are able to manage the inductive load represented by the primary side of the pulse transformer.
Between the turn-off of one driver and turn-on of the other one there is a dead time automatically optimized accordingly to the kind of the half bridge switches (MOS or BJT) to ensure the maximum reliability. The CCC protects the circuit against over currents, choke saturation and hard switching events.

5.5 Storage time compensation network

In all the operating states (preheating, ignition and run mode), the storage time compensation ensures the application of the fixed dead time (t BJT's collector current is effectively reduced to zero. The t generated by internal logic and the propagation delay of PWM_det comparator.
The voltage level of the middle point of the half bridge is monitored through the PWM_det pin: the high side switch is turned on after a fixed dead time from the instant when the voltage on the PWM_det pin is above 2.65 V. The time between the falling edge of pin LSD and the rising edge of HSD is recorded in order to set the same dead time between the falling edge of pin HSD and the rising edge of pin LSD.
The minimum duration of the resulting ON time is internally limited to 1 µs. This condition can last for a maximum time equal to 200 ms. After this time the IC is shut down (latched).
The PWM_det pin embeds a 5 V (typ.) clamping zener, allowing the connection between the half bridge middle point and the pin itself by means of a limiting resistor.
When driving MOSFET no storage time is present, therefore the resulting dead time is equal to (1.42 µs).

5.6 Current control circuit (CCC)

The current control circuit (CCC) is a sophisticated circuit able to protect the ballast against any possible failure. It limits the maximum lamp voltage during ignition (OCPH), overcurrent protection (OCPL) during run mode, chokes saturation control (CSC) and hard switching protection (HSP). The control circuit senses the voltage on HBCS pin and PWM_det pin.
Figure 3 on page 13 shows the CCC protections active in each operating mode (preheating,
ignition and run):

5.6.1 Hard switching protection (HSP)

If the voltage on PWM_det pin is higher than 2.35 V at the moment the LS driver turns on, an up-down event counter is increased and an internal timer is started. Without hard switching events, the counter decreases at every cycle and the timer is reset when 0 is reached. If the events counter value is higher than 0 after 200 ms from the detection of the first event, then the IC is turned off (latched).

5.6.2 Overcurrent protection (OCPH) during ignition mode

The protection results in lamp voltage limitation during ignition. In this phase three thresholds are active (THL, THM and THH):
If the first threshold is crossed the frequency is increased by 1 kHz during the next cycle.
The interval between the crossings of the two lower thresholds (THL and THM) is used as an indication of the slope of the half bridge current: if this interval is longer than t1 = 510 ns the event is considered “slow” and the frequency is increased by another 1 kHz/cycle during the next cycle. If the interval is shorter than t1 = 510 ns but longer than t2 = 255 ns, the event is considered “fast” and the frequency is increased by another 2 kHz/cycle during the next cycle.
If no further threshold crossing is detected, the frequency is decreased with a fixed rate equal to df crossed firstly is reached; then, the decreasing ratio becomes again df
If the run frequency has not been reached within 200 ms after the lower threshold was crossed the first time, the IC is turned off (latched).
A leading edge blanking of 255 ns is active.
/dt = - 500 Hz/ms, until the frequency at which the lowest threshold was
CCC

5.6.3 Overcurrent protection (OCPL) during run mode

The behavior of the OCPL is similar to the OCPH but with reduced thresholds (TLL, TLM and TLH) since the current involved in this phase is smaller. If no further threshold crossing is detected, the frequency is decreased with a fixed rate equal to d until the run frequency is reached.
If the run frequency has not been reached after 200 ms from when the lower threshold was crossed the first time, the IC is turned off (latched).

Functions description L6520, L6521

5.6.4 Choke saturation control (CSC) during ignition and run mode

The same thresholds used to detect OCPH and OCPL are active.
The control is still based on the time between two consecutive thresholds but its behavior is different with respect to the OCPH/OCPL detection to take into account the increase of dI/dt when the inductor is saturating. When either the two lower thresholds are crossed in a time shorter than 255 ns or the higher threshold is crossed, the LS driver is immediately turned off and the time between the LS turn on and the instant when the second threshold (THM or TLM) is crossed is used to calculate the new (higher) frequency.
If this new frequency is higher than 100 kHz then the new frequency will be set at 100 kHz.
The frequency is then decreased with a fixed df/dt equal to df frequency at which the first threshold was crossed is reached. Then, the decreasing ratio becomes again df
/dt during ignition whereas, during run mode, the df

ratio is maintained until run frequency is reached.
If the run frequency has not been reached after 200 ms from when the lower threshold was crossed the first time, the IC is turned off (latched).
A leading edge blanking of 255 ns is active.

5.7 End of life (EOL)

An embedded window comparator can be used to detect the end of life (EOL) when the lamp is directly connected to ground (lamp to ground configuration).
After the ignition sequence, the EOL window comparator becomes active. When the voltage at EOL pin goes outside the limits of this comparator a 1.5 s timer is started. If the EOL pin voltage does not return inside the allowed range before the end of the timer, the IC is shut down (latched).
The EOL pin is biased to the center of the window comparator by means of an OTA (2.5 V typ. with +/- 1.5 V typ. window), having a current capability equal to 9.1 µA (typ.).
