Finally, the maximum power dissipation of the external MOSFET is:
This determines the package choice (θ
Stability
In order to maintain the stability of the current control loop, a capacitor, C
Ground. The value is determined by the minimum time constant, C
0.1µF or greater. The capacitor type is recommended to be X7R ceramic.
For best stability a power supply decoupling capacitor, C
between V
OFFLINE LED LAMPS
The configuration of the AL8400 also makes it suitable for controlling the current of an offline (mains) isolated LED lamp by
way of an opto-coupler to drive the feedback pin of the primary-side switching controller.
The current sensing of the LED current is done via R
coupler. See Figure 4 below.
