DESCRIPTION
The UCC25710 is an LLC half-bridge controller for
accurate control of multi-string LED backlight
applications. It is optimized for multi-transformer,
multi-string LED architectures. Superior LED current
matching in multiple strings can be achieved with this
controller and architecture. Compared to existing LED
backlight solutions, the multi-transformer architecture
provides the highest overall efficiency from AC input
to LED load.

The LLC controller function includes a Voltage
Controlled Oscillator (VCO) with programmable FMIN
and FMAX, half-bridge gate drivers with a fixed dead
time of 500 ns and a GM current amplifier. The LLC
power delivery is modulated by the controller’s VCO
frequency. The VCO has an accurate and
programmable frequency range. At very low power
levels the VCO frequency goes from FMAX to zero to
maximize efficiency at low LED currents.
