CS1615/16
5. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
5.1 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.
5.2 IC Startup
A high-voltage source-follower circuit is used to deliver startup
current to the IC. During steady-state operation, an auxiliary
winding on the transformer/inductor biases this circuit to an off
state to improve system efficiency, and all IC supply current is
provided from the auxiliary winding. The patent-pending
technology of the high-voltage source-follower circuit enables
system compatibility with digital dimmers (dimmers containing an
internal power supply) by providing a continuous path for the
dimmer’s power supply to recharge during its off state. During
steady-state operation, high-voltage FET Q1 in this circuit is
source-controlled by a variable internal current source on the
SOURCE pin to create the dimmer-compatibility circuit. A
Schottky diode with a forward voltage of less than 0.6V is
recommended for diode D1. Schottky diode D1 will limit inrush
current through the internal diode, preventing damage to the IC.
During initial power-up, the IC executes a fast startup algorithm,
which drives the converter with peak currents that are above
normal to charge the output capacitor. Once the output capacitor
reaches a defined voltage, the IC drives the converter with
nominal peak currents until normal operation is achieved.
5.3 IC Operation
5.3.1 Dimmer Detection
The CS1615/16 dimmer switch detection algorithm determines if
a non-dimming switch, a leading-edge dimmer switch, or a
trailing-edge dimmer switch controls the solid-state lighting (SSL)
system. For each type of switch, the IC uses a different operating
mode: for a non-dimming switch, No-dimmer Mode is used; for a
leading-edge dimmer switch, Leading-edge Mode is used; for a
trailing-edge dimmer switch, Trailing-edge Mode is used. As a
result, the overall performance is optimized in terms of power
losses, efficiency, power factor, THD, and dimmer compatibility.
When the IC completes UVLO, it executes in Leading-edge
Mode until the dimmer switch detection algorithm determines the
appropriate operating mode for the IC. The dimmer switch
detection algorithm uses the input line voltage slope and dimmer
phase angle to determine the operating mode that matches the
type of dimmer switch in the system. From there on, it periodically
learns the dimmer type and can change the operating mode if the
type of dimmer switch changes.
5.3.1.1 No-dimmer Mode
If the CS1615/16 determines that the line is not phase cut by a
dimmer switch, the IC operates the flyback/ buck-boost in PFC
mode to achieve a power factor greater than 0.9 while regulating
the load current to a level set by resistor RCTRL2. In addition, a
No-dimmer Mode algorithm is applied to the source-controlled
dimmer-compatibility circuit for optimal performance, including
less than 20% of THD and highest possible overall efficiency.

5.3.1.2 Leading-edge Mode
If the CS1615/16 determines that the line is phase cut by a
leading-edge dimmer switch, the IC operates the flyback/buck-
boost in Dimmer Mode and the IC sets the dimmer firing current
as well as the attach current using a source-controlled dimmer-
compatibility circuit for stable TRIAC dimmer operation.

5.3.1.3 Trailing-edge Mode
If the CS1615/16 determines that the line is phase cut by a
trailing-edge dimmer switch, the IC operates the flyback/buck-
boost in Dimmer Mode. The IC charges the capacitor in the
