Overview
The CS1615 and CS1616 are high-performance single
stage dimmable offline AC/DC controllers. The CS1615/16
is a cost-effective solution that provides unmatched single-
and multi-lamp dimmer-compatibility performance for
dimmable LED applications. The CS1615 is designed for
120VAC line voltage applications, and the CS1616 is
designed for 230VAC line voltage applications.
Across a broad range of dimmers, the CS1615/16 provides
smooth flicker free dimming, and consistently dims to
nearly zero light output, which closely matches the dimming
performance of incandescent light bulbs. Cirrus Logic’s
patent pending approach to dimmer compatibility provides
full functionality on a wide range of dimmers, including
leading-edge, trailing-edge, and digital dimmers.

Figure 1. CS1615/16 Block Diagram
A typical schematic using the CS1615/16 IC is shown on the
previous page.
Startup current is provided from a patent-pending, external, high-
voltage source-follower network. In addition to providing startup
current, this unique topology is integral in providing compatibility
with digital dimmers by ensuring V
DD
power is always available
to the IC. During normal operation, an auxiliary winding on the
flyback transformer or buck-boost inductor back-biases the
source-follower circuit and provides steady-state operating
current to the IC to improve system efficiency.
Rectified input voltage V
rect
is sensed as a current into pin IAC
and is used to control the adaptive dimmer-compatibility
algorithm and to extract the phase of the input voltage for output
dimming control. The SOURCE pin is used to provide a control
signal for the high-voltage source-follower circuit during Leading-
edge Mode and Trailing-edge Mode; it also provides the current
during startup.
The digital dual-mode controller is implemented with peak-
current mode primary-side regulation, which eliminates the need
for additional components to provide feedback from the
secondary and reduces system cost and complexity. Voltage
across a user-selected resistor is sensed through pin FBSENSE
to control the peak current of the primary-side inductor. Leading-
edge and trailing-edge blanking on pin FBSENSE prevents false
triggering. The required target LED current and average flyback
transformer and buck-boost inductor input current are set by
attaching resistors R
CTRL1
and R
CTRL2
on pins CTRL1 and
CTRL2, respectively. The controller ensures half line-cycle
averaged constant output current.
Pin FBAUX is used for zero-current detection to ensure
quasi-resonant switching of the single stage output. When an
external negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor is
connected to pin eOTP, the CS1615/16 monitors the system
temperature, allowing the controller to reduce the output current
of the system. If the temperature reaches a designated high set
point, the IC is shut down and stops switching.

Description
No Connect
— Leave pin unconnected.
Rectifier Voltage Sense
— A current proportional to the rectified line voltage is fed
into this pin. The current is measured with an A/D converter.
Voltage Clamp Current Source
— Connect to a voltage clamp circuit on the
source-switched dimmer-compatibility circuit.
Source Ground
— Common reference current return for the SOURCE pin.
Source Switch
— Connected to the source of the source-switched external high-volt-
age FET.
No Connect
— Connect this pin to VDD using a 47k pull-up resistor.
No Connect
— Connect this pin to VDD using a 47kpull-up resistor.
Dimmer Hold Current
— Connect a resistor to this pin to set the minimum input cur-
rent being pulled by the flyback/buck-boost stage.
LED Load Current
— Connect a resistor to this pin to set the LED current.
External Overtemperature Protection
— Connect an external NTC thermistor to this
pin, allowing the internal A/D converter to sample the change to NTC resistance.
Feedback Current Sense
— The current flowing in the power FET is sensed across a
resistor. The resulting voltage is applied to this pin and digitized for use by the compu-
tational logic to determine the FET's duty cycle.
Ground
— Common reference. Current return for both the input signal portion of the
IC and the gate driver.
Gate Drive
— Gate drive for the power FET.
IC Supply Voltage
— Connect a storage capacitor to this pin to serve as a reservoir
for operating current for the device, including the gate drive current to the power tran-
sistor.
No Connect
— Leave pin unconnected.
Zero-current Detect
— Connect to the flyback/buck-boost inductor auxiliary winding
for demagnetization current zero-crossing detection.

The CS1615/16 has an internal shunt regulator that limits the voltage on the VDD pin. Shunt regulation voltage V
Z
is defined in
the
VDD Supply Voltage
section on
page 4.
For test purposes, load capacitance C
L
is connected to pin GD and is equal to 0.25nF.
External circuitry should be designed to ensure that the ZCD current drawn from the internal clamp diode when it is forward biased
does not exceed specification.
Protection is implemented using pin FBSENSE. See the
CS1615/16 Block Diagram
on
page 2.
Protection is implemented using pin FBAUX. See the
CS1615/16 Block Diagram
on
page 2
The conductance is specified in Siemens (S or 1/). Each LSB of the internal ADC corresponds to 250nS or one parallel 4M
resistor. Full scale corresponds to 256 parallel 4M resistors or 15.625k.
Specifications are guaranteed by design and are characterized and correlated using statistical process methods.
