AL8807AEV3 Basic operation at full voltage

1. Connect Vin and GND

Warning: The board does not feature reverse battery/supply protection.

2. Set the PSU to 36V

3. Turn on the PSU. The LED will illuminate and the current should be approximately 1A.

Warning: Do not stare at the LED directly.

Minimising the output current

Shorting the CTRL pin to GND will cause the LED current to be reduced. On some boards, however,

the LED may not be completely turned off.

Soft start

Adding capacitor C3 will create a soft-start power-up sequence (0.1ms/nF).

Changing the LED current

1. Remove R1.

2. Calculate and replace sense resistor, R1, the value of which is based on the required LED

current without dimming. R1 can be calculated using following equation :

R1 = 0.1V/IOUT

where IOUT = the LED current.

R1 = the sense resistor value in ohms.

0.1V is the nominal sense voltage with ‘CTRL’ open circuit or set to 2.5V.

The device calculator at the address below can be used to speed up the redesign phase:

PERFORMANCE

The system efficiency depends on the sense resistor, supply voltage, switching frequency and the

number of LEDs.

With a 12V supply and two LEDs, the switching frequency is typically 102kHz, and the efficiency level

is 88%.
