PowerSO-10 solution for driving LEDs in low voltage applications such as 5 V, 12 V or 24 V giving benefits in terms of precision, integration and reliability.
The current is set with external resistor up to 2 A with a ± 10 % precision; a dedicated pin allows implementing PWM dimming. An external capacitor allows setting the slope for the current rise from tens of microseconds to tens of milliseconds allowing reduction of EMI.
An open-drain pin output provides information on load disconnection condition.

Detail description STCS2A
The STCS2A is a BiCMOS constant current source designed to provide a precise constant current starting from a varying input voltage source. The main target is to replace discrete components solution for driving LEDs in low voltage applications such as 5 V, 12 V or 24 V giving benefits in terms of precision, integration and reliability.
The current is set with an external sensing resistor connected to the FB pin. The feedback voltage is 100 mV, then a low resistor value can be chosen reducing power dissipation. A value between 1 mA and 2 A can be set according to the resistor value the resulting output current has a tolerance of ± 10%.
For instance, should one need a 700 mA LEDs current, R
F the following equation:
should be selected according to
R
F
= V
FB
/ I
LEDs
= 100 mV / 700 mA = 142 m Ω
7.2 Enable
When the enable pin is low the device completely off thus reducing current consumption to less than 1 µA. When in shutdown mode, the internal main switch is off.
The PWM input allows implementing PWM dimming on the LED current; when the PWM input is high the main switch will be on and vice versa. A typical frequency range for the input is from few Hertz to 50 kHz. The maximum dimming frequency is limited by the minimum rise/fall time of the current (obtained with C
SLOPE
=0) which is around 4 µs each.
Above 50 kHz the current waveforms starts assuming a triangular shape.
While the PWM input is switching, the overall circuitry remains on, this is needed in order to implement two important features: short delay time and controlled slope for the current.
Since the PWM pin is controlling just the main switch, the overall circuitry is always on and it is able to control the delay time between the PWM input signal and the output current in the range of few µs, this is important to implement synchronization among several light LED sources.
The rise and fall slope of the current is controlled by the C
SLOPE
capacitor. The rise and fall time are linear dependent from the C
SLOPE
capacitor value (see graph in typical characteristics). A controlled rise time has two main benefits: reducing EMI noise and avoid current spike at turn on.
When C
SLOPE
is left floating, the internal switch is turned on at maximum speed, in this condition an overshoot can be present on the LED current before the system goes into regulation.

STCS2A Detail description
7.4 Diagnostic
When STCS2A is in on mode (EN is high), the device is able to detect disconnection or fail of the LED string monitoring V
DRAIN
pin. If V
DRAIN
is lower than 75 mV the DISC pin is pulled low regardless the PWM pin status. This information can be used by the system to inform that some problem happens in the LEDs.

Application information STCS2A
8.1 Reverse polarity protection
STCS2A must be protected from reverse connection of the supply voltage. Since the current sunk from V
CC
pin is in the range of 450 µA a small diode connected to V
CC
is able to protect the chip. Care must be taken for the whole application circuit, especially for the
LEDs, in fact, in case a negative voltage is applied between V
IN
and GND, a negative voltage will be applied to the LED string that must have a total breakdown voltage higher than the negative applied voltage in order to avoid any damage.
Figure 15.
Reverse polarity condition
12/18
The STCS2A is able to control a LED current up to 2 A and able to sustain a voltage on the drain pin up to 40 V. Those operating conditions are however limited by thermal constraints.
The poor thermal conduction of epoxy FR4 boards does not permit to benefit of the outstanding thermal performance of the PowerSO-10.
In any case one way to improve the thermal conduction is the use of large heat spreader areas at the copper layer of the PC board. This leads to a reduction of thermal resistance to
30 - 36 °C/W for 3 to 6 cm
2
on-board heatsink.
Use of copper-filled through holes on conventional FR4 techniques increases the metallization and decreases thermal resistance accordingly. Using a configuration with 16 holes under the spreader of the package with a pitch of 1.8 mm and a diameter of 0.7 mm, the thermal resistance (junction - heatsink) can be reduced to 12 °C/W.
The thermal resistances shown in the Error! Reference source not found. section are the typical ones.
The power dissipation in the device can be calculated as follow:

P
D

+ (V

) basing on this and on the thermal resistance and ambient temperature, the junction temperature can be calculated as:

A typical application could be:
– Input voltage: 12 V;
– 3 white LEDs with an typical V
F
= 3.6 V;
– LEDs current: 1000 mA;
– Package: PowerSO-10;
– T
A
= 50 °C;
In this case the drain voltage is given by:
V
DRAIN
= 12 - 3 x 3.6 = 1.2 V end the power dissipated in the IC is the following:
P
D
= (1.2 - 0.1) x 1 + 12 x 0.5 x 10

= 1.1 W
With a thermal resistance junction-ambient equal to 12 °C/W the junction temperature is:
T
J
= 12 x 1.1 + 50 = 63 °C.
