... Important Safety Information The IRPLLED1 does not provide galvanic isolation of the LED drive output from the line input. Therefore if the system is supplied directly from a non-isolated input, an electrical shock hazard exists at the LED outputs and these should not be touched during operation. Although the output voltage is low this electrical shock hazard still exists. ...

... The inductor for the IRPLLED1 evaluation board was selected to supply the maximum output current of 1.5A. Due to constraints of size a value of 470uH was chosen, which provides good performance. The IRPLLED1 may be used with or without the output capacitor COUT connected. If COUT is not connected the system runs at higher frequency and consequently with reduced efficiency due to switching losses ...

... MOSFET body diode may not be an issue. For higher frequency higher current applications a diode could provide lower power losses with respect to a MOSFET. With a low side MOSFET fitted to the IRPLLED1 evaluation board reverse recovery current peaks 8A were measured. This resulted in a temperature rise which could be reduced by replacing the low side MOSFET with an appropriate freewheeling diode ...

... This current spike stresses the load possibly decreasing LED operating lifetime. The IRPLLED1 includes a jumper setting to define whether or not the board is being used in the dimming mode. This two position jumper allows the designer to either include or exclude the resistor Rout, which is in series with the output capacitor ...

... EMC performance. EMC performance The IRPLLED1 evaluation board has not been EMC tested. Input and Output filters can be used to reduce the conducted emissions to below the limits of the applicable EMC standard as needed. Inductors may require a powdered Iron core rather than Ferrite, which can handle a much larger current before saturating. If EMC is of critical importance, it may be beneficial to use a MOSFET for the upper switching element and a diode for the lower switch ...
