Circuit component calculations
• Selection of R_fset: fsw = 600kHz
Thus, R_fset = 105 kohm
Iout = 100mA
• Selection of R_iset: Thus, Riset = 24.3 kohm
• Selection of C_out & C_in: Values taken in the typical range as given in the datasheet.
• Selection of Diode: Schottky diode
Simulation of the IC
Short LED detection circuit
Short circuit detection simulation results
Single LED short in any string: Proper functioning of all the components:
Voltage Input to the fault pin = 3.5 V Voltage input to the fault pin = 0.05 V
Circuit output
• Output power at each LED string = (0.1 A)*(38.4 V) = 3.84 W
• Total output power = 4*3.84 W = 15.36 W
• Lumen output rating for each LED used in the design = 117 lm/W
• Total lumen output of the design = 1797.12 lm
• The required lumen output can be obtained by using lesser or more number of LEDs in the
design.
