GENERAL DESCRIPTION

GND  
The AD8240 LED driver/monitor, in combination with an  
external transistor, supplies a constant 12 V to drive LED  
lamps. This allows cost-effective LED lamp monitoring and  
short-circuit protection. The output is regulated at 12 V when  
the supply voltage is between 12.5 V and 27 V.  
Figure 1.  
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS  
1. Partial LED lamp failure detection.  
Allows for compliance with automotive regulations  
for turn signal functionality detection and minimum  
brightness, as well as running/brake light minimum  
brightness compliance.  
A CMOS compatible, level-dependent, digital input can be used  
for PWM control of the LED brightness. VO is turned on when  
the PWM input is high and turned off when the input is low.  
The AD8240 is designed to work with a PWM frequency up  
to 500 Hz, and a typical PWM range from 5% to 95%.  
2. Current limiting/latch-off protection.  
Limiting and latching off the LED current protects vehicle  
wiring and prevents lamp damage  
Open LED detection is accomplished by measuring the change  
in LED lamp current caused by an open LED(s) through the use  
of an internal high-side current-sense amplifier that amplifies  
the voltage across an external current shunt. The voltage across  
the shunt resistor is amplified to a level that can be measured by  
a microcontroller A/D converter or a comparator. The ability to  
measure the change in LED lamp current is the key benefit of  
constant-voltage LED lamp driving.  
3. PWM input.  
Provides brightness control.  
4. Constant voltage output.  
Saves cost by minimizing wiring and system design  
complexity.  
5. Drives an external transistor for low power operation.  
Providing for an external power transistor allows the  
AD8240 to be a low cost solution in a small package. A  
more efficient design is made possible when the system  
designer can select a power device with specifications  
that match the application requirements.  
The output is current-limited by latching off the output voltage  
when the current reaches a preset level. The current limit is set  
by selecting the value of the external current shunt that causes  
the output of the sense amplifier to slightly exceed the 5 V  
reference level when the current exceeds a maximum level.  
When the sense amplifier output exceeds 5 V, it trips an internal  
comparator that causes the driver to latch off the output voltage.  
The latch is reset during the next PWM cycle. The overcurrent  
condition can also be detected by a microcontroller or external  
comparator by measuring the sense amplifier output.  
6. Linear regulation.  
Minimizes EMI, which allows faster system integration,  
qualification, and time to market. Additionally, costs are  
reduced by eliminating the inductor required for a  
switching design. Because of the power-saving nature of  
LED lamps as compared to incandescent lamps, a  
switching driver is typically not required.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION  
The AD8240 consists of four functional blocks labeled A  
through D, as shown in Figure 2.  
HIGH-SIDE CURRENT-SENSE AMPLIFIER WITH  
OPEN LED DETECTION (BLOCK B)  
VPLUS  
VO  
This amplifier is used to measure the LED current by ampli-  
fying the voltage across a user-selected shunt resistor. It has a  
gain of 24 and an overall accuracy of 5%. The output of the  
amplifier is typically connected to a microcontroller A/D  
converter input so that the condition of the LED lamp can be  
determined. This output can also be tied to other devices such  
as a latching comparator or output buffer. It is important to note  
that the output of this amplifier has a relatively high impedance  
of approximately 10 kΩ. As a result, a buffer amplifier should be  
used if the load is less than 100 kΩ.

This block is used to shut down the output in the case of a

of the high-side current-sense amplifier approaches 5 V, the  
comparator output switches, causing the driver to latch off the  
output voltage.

LINEAR REGULATOR (BLOCK A)  
Accepts PWM input so that LED brightness can be  
controlled by a user-supplied PWM signal.  
The simplified architecture of the linear regulator block is an  
amplifier and resistor divider. One input to the amplifier is  
tied to the 5 V reference. The other input is tied to a resistor  
divider that sets the ratio of the 5 V reference to VO. As a  
result, the accuracy of the voltage output is proportional to  
the accuracy of the 5 V reference. For example, if the 5 V  
reference is 5% high (5.25 V), the output is 5% high (12.6 V).  
The PWM input can also be used as a simple on/off  
control for applications that do not require variable  
brightness.  
Latch-off input that latches the output off when the  
comparator trips during an overcurrent event. The latch  
is reset by cycling the PWM input.

Shunt Resistor Selection  
Figure 3 shows a connection diagram for a typical application.  
The shunt resistor is chosen by the equation  
SETUP  
RSHUNT 0.2V ILOAD  
In order to set up and evaluate the AD8240, the following  
components and equipment are needed:  
For example if the load is expected to be 500 mA, the shunt  
value should be equal to or less than 0.4 Ω. This keeps the  
output of the current sense amplifier from being greater than  
4.8 V in normal operation to prevent noise from causing the  
output to latch off.  
A shunt resistor (typically 0.1 Ω to 0.5 Ω depending on the  
load). See the Shunt Resistor Selection section.  
A transistor (the type depends on the load)  
Two capacitors  
Circuit Configuration  
LED load  
Connect the pass transistor, capacitors, and LED load(s) as  
shown in Figure 3. It is important to note that the value of CM  
should be at least 22 nF to ensure circuit stability.  
5 V reference voltage  
9 V to 27 V supply  
Oscilloscope  
The LED lamp should be configured to expect 12 V. This is  
the result of selecting the series/parallel combinations of LEDs  
and series resistors. The series resistors can be used to adjust  
for LED supplier brightness variations from lot to lot.  
Digital voltmeter (DVM)  
Connect 5 V to Pin 2 (5 V reference) and at least 9 V to Pin 5  
(VPLUS). It may be necessary to raise the VPLUS voltage to more  
than 13 V, depending on the drop across the pass transistor, for  
the output to be regulated at 12 V. This varies according to the  
application and the pass transistor type.

CONTROLLING THE LED LAMP  
The LEDs are turned on and off depending on the CMOS  
compatible digital voltage level present at the PWM pin (Pin 3).  
This voltage can be continuous for a simple on/off function, or  
PWM for dimming control. The PWM frequency should be less  
than 500 Hz with a range from 5% to 100%. Typical values are  
5% for running and 95% for braking.  
To determine if the load is correct, the voltage at VSENSE should  
be as follows during full power operation:  
500 mA × 0.4 Ω × 24 V/V = 4.8 V  
If there is a partial LED failure, VSENSE drops in proportion to the  
quantity of the failure. For example, if 25% of the LEDs fail, the  
voltage drops by 25%.  
USING/EVALUATING THE VSENSE OUTPUT  
Important: The output impedance of VSENSE is approximately  
10 kΩ. Because of this, it may be necessary to buffer the output  
in order to drive a load of less than 100 kΩ. An oscilloscope,  
micro-controller A/D converter, or DVM may be used to  
accurately measure the voltage at the VSENSE pin.  
If there is a short to ground, VSENSE is near 0 V because the  
output is latched off and no current is flowing.  
Using/Evaluating the Short-Circuit Protection Feature  
If there is a short or an overload condition, the voltage at  
V
SENSE falls close to zero, and the output shuts down  
The VSENSE output is used to detect a partial LED failure, or an  
overcurrent condition. The voltage present at VSENSE is propor-  
tional to the current through the load with the equation  
(the transistor driver shuts off). This resets when the PWM  
voltage is brought low and then high again. If the condition  
persists, the AD8240 attempts to drive the output to 12 V and  
then immediately shuts down. If a PWM voltage is used, the  
AD8240 attempts to start after each PWM cycle.  
I
LOAD = (VSENSE/24)/RSHUNT  
Selection of the shunt resistor can be found by manipulating this  
equation. For example  
This can be simulated by increasing the load so the voltage at  
VSENSE slightly exceeds 5 V. When this happens, the output shuts  
VSENSE = ILOAD × RSHUNT  
Expected Load = 500 mA  
RSHUNT = 0.4 Ω  
down, and the VSENSE voltage is close to 0 V.

ADVANTAGES OF DRIVING LED LAMPS WITH CONSTANT VOLTAGE  
The advantages of driving LED lamps with constant voltage are  
DRIVING AUTOMOTIVE LEDS  
There are two different architectures for driving LEDs in  
left/right/center brake lamps, running lamps, and turn signals.  
Low system cost  
Accurate monitoring  
Proven strategy  
Constant Current  
The most common method for driving LEDs is with a constant  
current. This current can be supplied from a constant current  
source or from a constant voltage source in series with a ballast  
resistor. Driving LEDs without some form of ballast carries  
some risk of premature LED failure due to thermal runaway in  
high temperature ambient conditions.  
BACKGROUND  
A great variety of LED lamps are being used in automotive  
applications. The most popular application is center brake  
lamps. Currently, many manufacturers are developing  
technology to use LEDs for left/right brake lamps, running  
lamps, and turn signals. There are also plans to use high power  
LEDs for forward lighting fog lamps and low beams.  
For example, in the simplest application, the center brake lamp  
is driven from a relatively constant voltage with brightness  
controlled by a series ballast resistor. This simple driving  
method has been used in a wide variety of automotive platforms  
for some time. With this method, the LEDs and ballast resistors  
are preselected for brightness as part of the manufacturing  
strategy.  
There are two fundamental types of LEDs used in these applica-  
tions. The first is the low power bright LED. The second type is  
the high power, extremely bright LED in the 1 W to 10 W range.  
While the following information can be applied to applications  
using the high power LED, or incandescent lamps, the constant  
voltage method is designed for applications typically using the  
low power bright LEDs. This type of LED is used in arrays that  
form LED lamps.  
When driving with a constant current source, LED driving  
and monitoring cannot be done using two or fewer wires  
(shared ground). Since the current is constant, it does not  
change with partial LED failure. Instead, the current is divided  
among the remaining functional LEDs, causing them to fail  
prematurely at an unpredictable rate. Additionally, it is not  
possible to detect partial failure by measuring the voltage  
change. The voltage does not change by a detectable amount  
because of the steep V/I curve exhibited by bright LEDs. When  
using a constant current scheme, at least one additional wire  
per lamp must be added to the harness to monitor partial or  
total LED failure. Additionally, electronic modules must be  
added to each lamp.  
MONITORING THE LEDS  
In addition to driving the LED lamp, the electronics in the  
control module must include a method for monitoring partial  
LED failure in the lamp. Certain factors, such as overdriving  
and mechanical stress, can cause LED failures.  
Auto manufacturers are using LED lamps as a way to differen-  
tiate themselves and give a car a unique appearance. Several  
failed LEDs in the lamp would ruin the aesthetics of the lamp.  
As a result, manufacturers are demanding the ability to monitor  
the LED lamps for partial failure.  
Constant Voltage  
Driving LEDs with a constant voltage allows for easy, low cost  
detection of partial failure, an advantage not available with a  
constant-current architecture. This is because the current from  
the voltage source changes in direct proportion to the number  
of LEDs that have failed. This current can be measured with a  
low cost shunt and an amplifier back at the body control  
module. This detection scheme is implemented in the AD8240  
LED driver/monitor through the use of a high-side, current-  
sensing amplifier. The current is measured on the high side in  
order to separate the current from those combined in the  
chassis ground return or shared-wire ground return.  
In addition to monitoring the LEDs for aesthetic reasons,  
monitoring must also be included as a result of automotive  
regulations. These regulations specify the minimum light  
output of external lamps. For example, if half of the LEDs in  
a particular lamp failed, the lamp would still operate, but the  
light output would be insufficient to meet automotive  
regulations for brightness. This concern is not an issue for  
incandescent bulbs, because they are either completely on or  
completely off. The ability of the LED lamp to provide some  
light output in the case of partial outage, however, allows for an  
extra degree of safety over incandescent lamps. Additionally,  
there are automotive regulations requiring the monitoring of  
the turn signals regardless of the type of light source.  
Rev. 0 | Page 8 of 12  
 
AD8240  
As a result, the constant voltage driving/monitoring method is  
the lowest cost and least-prone-to-failure method for driving  
and monitoring LEDs from a system perspective. This is  
primarily because the number of wires and connections can be  
minimized. By using a constant voltage driver and measuring  
the current, an LED lamp can be driven and monitored using  
only two wires (power and ground). In many cases, this can be  
reduced to one wire when the chassis or shared ground return  
is used. This is a similar architecture used with incandescent  
bulbs, which means no changes to the wiring harness are  
necessary with this LED implementation.  
Constant voltage driving/monitoring is a proven method  
already in use in a number of automotive platforms to drive  
LED tail, running, and turn-indicator lamps.  
The AD8240 LED lamp driver/monitor is designed for use in  
the body control or related module. When used this way, it is  
very similar to the method that has been used to control  
external incandescent lamps. By utilizing the existing lamp  
driving architecture, additional modules are not required to  
drive the external lamps, which further minimizes the cost.  
It is possible to retrofit existing lamp driving modules with  
the AD8240 with minimal engineering time required.  
Most automotive platforms no longer use a switch on the  
dashboard to directly control the incandescent lamps. These  
lamps are now controlled and driven by the body control ECU.  
By using this constant voltage architecture, the control and drive  
function for the LEDs can remain in the ECU with minimal  
design modification.
