New Power Factor Corrected LED Driver from ON Semiconductor Supports TRIAC Dimming for Residential and Commercial Lighting Applications

Mon, 22 Feb 2010 07:00:00 GMT

Housed in a compact 8-pin surface mount package, the NCL30000 achieves high power factor (> 0.95) in a single-stage topology by using a critical conduction mode (CrM) flyback architecture, thereby eliminating the need for a DC-DC conversion stage. Constant on-time CrM operation is particularly suited to isolated flyback LED applications, as the control scheme is straightforward and very high efficiency can be achieved - even at low power levels. This is important in LED lighting in order to support compliance with regulatory requirements and meet overall system efficacy requirements.

Typical applications include LED driver power supplies, LED-based down lights, TRIAC dimmable LED-based lamps and power factor corrected constant voltage supplies. This device is compatible with both leading edge TRIAC-based and trailing edge transistor-based dimmers. Depending on the dimmer used, the LED output can be controlled down to < 2 percent.

Three up to 15 W reference designs are provided and are intended to drive from 4-15 LEDs at 350 mA. They can however, be easily modified to support power levels ranging from 5 W to 30 W:

NCL30000LED1GEVB: 115 Vac version, 90 to 135 Vac input line (Dimmable)
NCL30000LED2GEVB: 230 Vac version, 180 to 265 Vac (TRIAC Dimmable)
NCL30000LED3GEVB: Extended universal version, 90 to 305 Vac

An operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C ensures the NCL30000 can be used across environmental operating ranges specified in the majority of solid state lighting applications. The NCL30000 has a low startup current of 24 micro amps (µA) (typical) and a low operating current of 2 milli amps (mA) (typical) that helps support high efficiency designs.

Other key features of the NCL30000 include a programmable on time limiter, zero current detect sense block, gate driver, plus all other pulse width modulation (PWM) circuitry and protection functions needed to implement a CrM switch mode power supply. The NCL30000 is the key device in a fully tested, GreenPoint® reference design for offline high power factor triac dimmable LED drivers intended for ENERGY STAR® commercial and residential luminaires. A live demonstration of this GreenPoint design is featured at the ON Semiconductor APEC booth #315 at APEC, from Feb. 22-25, 2010 in Palm Springs, Calif., and the reference design documentation can be found along with the other reference designs listed above on the ON Semiconductor website.

“Our customers have a need for dimmable LED driver solutions that are compatible with existing wiring and controls,” said Christophe Warin, AC-DC business unit manager at ON Semiconductor. ”The NCL30000 offers excellent dimming performance down to greater than 2 percent. This device is ideally suited for isolated flyback but can also be used with non-isolated buck topologies.”

Packaging and Pricing

The Pb, halogen and BFR free NCL30000 is RoHS compliant and is available in an eight-pin SOIC package. It is priced at $0.45 per unit in 10,000 unit quantities. Samples are available now. Projected lead-time for production quantities is currently eight to 12 weeks after receipt of order (ARO).

ON Semiconductor Introduces Fixed-Frequency Current-Mode Controller for High Efficiency, Compact Adapter Solutions

Mon, 22 Feb 2010 07:00:00 GMT

APPLIED POWER ELECTRONICS CONFERENCE (APEC), PALM SPRINGS, Calif. - Booth # 315 – Feb. 22, 2010 – ON Semiconductor (Nasdaq: ONNN) a premier supplier of high performance, energy efficient silicon solutions for green electronics today announced the introduction of the NCP1237, NCP1238 and NCP1288 fixed-frequency, current-mode controller ICs. Targeted at AC-DC adapter applications for laptop/notebook computers, LCD displays, printers, and household consumer electronics, the new controllers are available in a choice of frequency options with single or dual level over current thresholds. The standard device has a built-in 65 kHz oscillator, with 100 kHz and 133 kHz versions supplied on request.

The proprietary Soft−Skip™ mode utilized by these ICs ramp the peak current gradually during skip mode, reducing the risk of audible noise. This allows additional component savings, along with easing the design and manufacture of the transformer. Combining this with a frequency fold-back function, the new controllers deliver high efficiency levels in light load conditions, while minimizing input power during no load conditions.

The Dynamic Self−Supply (DSS) function of the NCP1237 and NCP1238 provide an integrated start-up current source that intelligently handles start-up and line transient events. This simplifies the design of the auxiliary supply, reducing the size of the VCC capacitor. To minimize external component count, the controllers integrate brown-out, over-power compensation and ramp compensation, allowing a compact solution to be designed.

The new fixed-frequency, current-mode controller ICs have an operational temperature range of −40 °C to +125 °C and are offered in a compact SOIC-7 package.

“With utility bills continuing to increase and concerns about the environment growing, it is vital to use electrical power at the greatest possible rates of efficiency,” said Christophe Warin, AC-DC business unit manager at ON Semiconductor. “The NCP1237, NCP1238 and NCP1288 are highly integrated solutions that will allow engineers to develop power system designs that maintain strong reliability, have a low bill-of-materials and do not waste energy when the product is in standby mode.”

The NCP1237 controller will be featured in a live demo at the ON Semiconductor booth (#315) during APEC, which takes place Feb. 22-25, 2010 in Palm Springs, Calif.

Please refer to the table on our website for potential changes to the Fully Diluted Share Count.
*** Special Items can include: restructuring, asset impairments and other, net; expensing of appraised inventory fair market value (FMV) step up; amortization of intangibles; goodwill impairments; income tax adjustments to approximate cash taxes; non-cash interest expense and certain other special items as necessary.
**** Regulation G and other provisions of the securities laws regulate the use of financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. We believe these non-GAAP measures provide important supplemental information to investors. We use these measures, together with GAAP measures, for internal managerial purposes and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. However, we do not, and you should not, rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone as measures of our performance. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that – when taken together with GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures that we also provide in our releases – provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures, even if they have similar names.

ON Semiconductor Adds New Clock and Data Driver ICs to its Family of Clock Management Products

Tue, 26 Jan 2010 07:00:00 GMT

PHOENIX, Ariz. – Jan. 26, 2010 – ON Semiconductor (Nasdaq: ONNN), a premier supplier of high performance, energy efficient silicon solutions for greener electronics, today announced an expansion of its family of clock drivers, with the release of the NB7L585, NB7L585R, NB7V585M and NB7V586M differential 2:1 mux input to 1:6 devices, and the NB6HQ14M and NB7HQ14M 1:4 fanout clock/data drivers with equalization.

The NB6HQ14M and NB7HQ14M integrate a selectable equalizer receiver into a high performance differential 1:4 CML clock driver. When placed in series with a data path operating at up to 6.5 gigabits per second (Gbps) or 10 Gbps the inputs will compensate the degraded signal and output four identical CML copies of the original input signal. The serial data rate is thereby increased by reducing Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) caused by losses in the copper interconnect or long cables.

The NB7L585, NB7L585R, NB7V585M, and NB7V586M are the newest members of the Gigacomm™ family representing a new 2:1:6 function integrating a 2:1 mux with a 1:6 fanout buffer. The NB7L585 and NB7L585R are 2.5 V / 3.3 V devices with either Low Voltage Positive Emitter Coupled Logic (LVPECL) output or Reduced Swing Emitter Coupled Logic (RSECL) output of 400 millivolt (mV) peak-to-peak, respectively. The NB7L585 operates up to 5 gigahertz (GHz) or 8 Gbps and the NB7L585R operates up to 7 GHz or 10 Gbps.

The NB7V585M is an ultra low voltage device operating from a 1.8 V / 2.5 V power supply. The NB7V586M operates from an ultra low 1.8 V supply and offers the 6 outputs configured as three banks of two differential pairs. Each bank of outputs has the flexibility to be powered by any combination of either 1.8 V or 1.2 V supplies. Both devices operate up to clock/data rates of 6 GHz / 10 Gbps.

The specifications achieved by these clock drivers make them highly suited to use in SONET, Gigabit Ethernet, Fiber Channel, backplane and other clock/data distribution applications. The ambient operating temperature of each of these devices covers −40 °C to +85 °C.

“The system designs for telecom switches, servers and routers are under pressure to support ever increasing clock and data interfaces and voltage levels without compromising on the signal quality,” said Prescott Sakai, director, clock and data management business unit, ON Semiconductor. “The company’s new clock drivers enable new integrated functions with equalization features that support various interfaces and low voltage level options. These devices maintain higher signal integrity at data rates that the competing suppliers simply cannot match.”

Packaging and Pricing
Pricing for the NB7L585, NB7L585R, NB7V585M, NB7V586M, NB6HQ14M and NB7HQ14M start from $5.25 in 1,000 unit quantities. They are all offered in low profile 3 mm x 3 mm 16-pin or 5 mm x 5 mm 32-pin Pb-free QFN packages. Samples are available now.
