1 Objective
DRIVER
The objective in this project is to design an LED Driver using chip on board (COB) or PCB power
LEDs. An LED Driver consists of a DC-DC switching converter powered from a DC voltage and
producing required voltage and current for the LED as depicted in Figure 1.
Figure 1: General structure of an LED driver.
2 Description of the Project
Technical details of the project are as follows:
Input voltage V_(in)=5V DC (USB power supply or USB power bank can be employed - at
least 2A output current),
Output power at least 10 W (COB/PCB LED), higher powers are OK,
Switching frequency of the converter f_(s)=20kHz,
Inductor current ripple Deltai_(L)=20% of average inductor current,
Output voltage ripple DeltaV_("out ")=1% of average output voltage,
Output current must not exceed rated current of the COB/PCB LED,
Output voltage must be adjustable so that brightness of COB/PCB LED can be controlled.
COB/PCB LED is constructed by connection of several individual LED chips in series. Typical
rated operating values are 9-12V DC and 200-350mA depending on the LED unit. I-V
curve for a single typical diode is depicted in Figure 2. Note that, since I-V curve slope around
operating point is very high, a slight increase in forward voltage will result in a large increase in
current. If current value exceeds the rated operating value, the LEDs may be damaged. Some form
of current limiting must be employed so that output current does not exceed rated value.
When LEDs are running at rated operating point, heat dissipation in LEDs can reach dangerous
levels which may cause them to be destroyed. Therefore, the COB LED must be placed on an
aluminum heat sink.
Your first task is to determine the type of switching converter and calculate component values of
all elements along with current/voltage ratings of semiconductor switches.
