Output Equation

By maintaining the off-time proportional to the output voltage (constant µs·V), it is possible to illustrate how the LED voltage (VLEDx) can be removed from the output current equation.

Starting with the inductor ripple derived from:

Equation 1. TPS92518-Q1 TPS92518_VisLdidt.gif

and the equation for the off-time:

Equation 2. TPS92518-Q1 TPS92518_toff.gif

the VLEDx term is then eliminated and the peak-to-peak inductor current ripple is defined by:

Equation 3. TPS92518-Q1 TPS92518_deltaILpp.gif

The final equation for the average LED current is then:

Equation 4. TPS92518-Q1 TPS92518_ILED.gif

Because the control method relies on thresholds to control the main switch, offsets and delays must also be considered when examining the output accuracy. The ILED equation can be expanded to include these error sources as shown in Equation 5. ILED equations include several passive components, so it is important to consider the tolerance of each component. In this case the components are the main inductor and the sense resistor. The VCSTx-OFFSET parameter is the variation in the VCSTx threshold between the typical and maximum or minimum values as defined in the Electrical Characteristics. The peak current threshold delay (tDEL) and off timer trip point delay (tD-OFF) specifications are also shown in the Electrical Characteristics.
