LED Lighting Controller with Power Factor Correction
November 11, 2010
Texas Instruments Inc. introduced a newsingle-stage LED lighting pulse widthmodulation (PWM) controller. The TRIAC-dimmable solution regulates LED currentand also achieves near unity power factor. The reference design can achieve 85percent efficiency, which enables high-density, small form factor designs. The TPS92210 is designed for generallighting applications, such as commercial and residential recessed, troffer,light bulb replacement, architectural and display lighting.
Keyfeatures and benefits of the TPS92210are:
TPS92210features flexible operation modes such as peak primary current, constanton-time and frequency modulation. The constant on-time mode providessingle-stage power factor correction for improved efficiency.
TPS92210'scascoded MOSFET configuration results in 10 percent lower switching losses withfast and easy high-voltage start-up compared to competitive devices.
Continuous linear TRIAC dimming provides flicker-free, uniform control.
Multiple protection features, such as over voltage protection withoutoptocouplers, thermal shutdown and advanced over current, safely shut down thesystem if fault conditions exist.
Programmable fault response, full shutdown and shutdown restart provide addedflexibility for fault response.
