Target Applications and Markets
• Non-isolated LED drivers where input voltage > output voltage
• LED light bulb replacements (non-dimmable)
• LED tube replacements
• LED street lighting
• LED office light fixtures
• LED refrigerator lighting
• LED runway lighting
• Solar LED street light
• Gaming machines
Existing Solutions
• Passive LED driver circuits
• Use diodes, resistors and capacitors only
• LED current is limited (many small LEDs)
• Cheap but poor performance and reliability
• Low-voltage Buck LED drivers
• Peak current regulated Buck LED drivers
Passive LED Driver
• Minimum cost solution
• No current regulation
• LED current varies with line voltage
• LED current varies with temperature
• Low power factor / high harmonics
• Standard white LEDs not HBLEDs
• If one LED fails open circuit
the product no longer operates
• Cannot comply with Energy Star

IR Solution
IRS2980:
• Available in SO8 package
• High-voltage Buck continuous mode LED driver (up to 375V continuous)
• Floating differential current sense
• Accurate constant current control (average current control)
• Internal HV regulator (no separate VCC supply needed)
• On board PWM dimming oscillator (not triac dimmable without additional
•
•
circuitry)
Frequency limiter (150kHz prevents internal regulator overheating and
limits switching losses in the MOSFET and diode)
May be used with passive valley fill PFC to obtain PF > 0.7

How Does the Product Work?
• Contains HV regulator for IC supply
• Uses Gen 5 HVIC technology
• Floating differential current sense for LED current sensing
• Hysteretic current regulation
• Free running operation (no Buck oscillator, no fixed frequency)
• Maximum frequency limiter (150kHz)
• Efficiency is best at high duty cycle where Vout is close to Vin
• Low-side MOSFET gate drive
• PWM dimming from external DC control voltage (0 to 2V)

• Low cost passive “Valley fill” PFC can be used in off line Buck regulators.
• Provides power factor ~0.9.
• It is constrained by ripple on DC bus being regulated out to provide
a constant output current.
