LED driver solution for MR16 and similar retrofit lamps
来源: 作者: 发布时间:2015-01-24 09:46:56 浏览量:Active PFC does not require large value (i.e., electrolytic) input capacitors. This is an advantage of the design. In this solution the input capacitor (C2) is a small value and ceramic. This solution works without electrolytic capacitors, which considerably extends the lamp lifetime.
LEDs dissipate most of the power provided to them by conduction. Meanwhile, MR16 LED lamps have little space for heatsinks because of their small size. Consequently, they often run at high temperatures in the +80°C to +1绕线型电感器00°C range. At those temperatures, even the lifetime of high-grade electrolytic capacitors is limited to little more than 10,000 hours, which is too few hours for an LED lamp.
Active PFC in this solution shapes the input current as a square wave, as in Figure 2.

Figure 2. Input current for the LED driver.
Shaping the input current as a square is the best solution for control: it keeps its value (i.e., the transformer and dimmer load current) above the required minimum for the whole c工字电感器ycle of the line voltage.
This control is obtained using components R8 (sense resistor), R7, and C9. R7 and C9 provide the average MOSFET current, which is the same as the average input current; the MAX16834 maintains this value constant throughout each cycle of the input voltage.
Since this solution does not include electrolytic capacitors, the LED current is a rectified sinusoid (without dimmer) or a rectified sinusoid cut for a part of the angle (with dimmer), because energy is not stored between one cycle of the AC voltage and the following (Figure 3).

Figure 3. LED current is a rectified sinusoid, with frequency equal to twice the line voltage frequency.
The MAX16834 features output overvoltage protection (OVP). With OVP, if the LEDs are disconnected or open the driver turns off and the driver is not damaged.
