The HV9925 is a pulse width modulated (PWM) high-efficiency
LED driver control IC with PWM dimming capabilities. It
allows efficient operation of high brightness LED strings from
voltage sources ranging up to 400VDC. The HV9925 includes
an internal high-voltage switching MOSFET controlled with a
fixed off-time (T
is driven at constant current, thus providing constant light
output and enhanced reliability. Selecting a value of a current
sense resistor can externally program the output LED current
of the HV9925.
The peak current control scheme provides good regulation
of the output current throughout the universal AC line voltage
range of 85 to 264VAC or DC input voltage of 20 to 400V.
The HV9925 is designed with a built in thermal shutdown to
prevent excessive power dissipation in the IC.

The HV9925 is a PWM peak current control IC for driving
a buck converter topology in continuous conduction mode
(CCM). The HV9925 controls the output current (rather than
output voltage) of the converter that can be programmed by
a single external resistor (R
string of light emitting diodes (LED). An external enable input
(PWMD) is provided that can be utilized for PWM dimming of
an LED string. The typical rising and falling edge transitions
of the LED current when using the PWM dimming feature of
the HV9925 are shown in Fig. 6 and Fig. 7.
When the input voltage of 20 to 400V appears at the DRAIN
pin, the internal linear regulator seeks to maintain a voltage
of 7.5VDC at the V
pin. Until this voltage exceeds the
DD
internally programmed under-voltage threshold, no output
switching occurs. When the threshold is exceeded, the
integrated high-voltage switch turns on, pulling the DRAIN
low. A 200mV hysteresis is incorporated with the undervoltage comparator to prevent oscillation.

Adding a filter capacitor across the LED string can reduce
the output current ripple even further, thus permitting a
reduced value of L1. However, one must keep in mind that
the peak-to-average current error is affected by the variation
. Therefore, the initial output current accuracy might

be sacrificed at large ripple current in L1.
Another important aspect of designing an LED driver with
HV9925 is related to certain parasitic elements of the
circuit, including distributed coil capacitance of L1, junction
capacitance, and reverse recovery of the rectifier diode D1,
capacitance of the printed circuit board traces C

of the controller itself. These parasitic

elements affect the efficiency of the switching converter and
could potentially cause false triggering of the current sense
comparator if not properly managed. Minimizing these
parasitics is essential for efficient and reliable operation of
HV9925.
Coil capacitance of inductors is typically provided in the
manufacturer’s data books either directly or in terms of the
self-resonant frequency (SRF).

introduces a peak-to-average error in the output current
setting that needs to be accounted for. Due to the constant

Charging and discharging this capacitance every switching
cycle causes high-current spikes in the LED string. Therefore,
connecting a small capacitor CO (~10nF) is recommended to
bypass these spikes.
Using an ultra-fast rectifier diode for D1 is recommended to
achieve high efficiency and reduce the risk of false triggering
of the current sense comparator. Using diodes with shorter
reverse recovery time
trr, and lower junction capacitance CJ,
achieves better performance. The reverse voltage rating VR
of the diode must be greater than the maximum input voltage
of the LED lamp.

Estimating Power Loss
Discharging the parasitic capacitance C

output of the HV9925 is responsible for the bulk of the
switching power loss. It can be estimated using the following
equation:

where FS is the switching frequency and I

DRAIN current of the HV9925. The switching loss is the
greatest at the maximum input voltage.
When the LED driver is powered from the full-wave

conduction loss is more cumbersome. However, it can be
estimated using the following equation:

EMI Filter
As with all off-line converters, selecting an input filter is critical
to obtaining good EMI. A switching side capacitor, albeit of
small value, is necessary in order to ensure low impedance
to the high frequency switching currents of the converter. As
a rule of thumb, this capacitor should be approximately 0.1-
0.2 µF/W of LED output power. A recommended input filter is
