TOUCH CONTROL STEP DIMMER LIGHT SWITCH
WITH AUTOMATIC GAIN CONTROL (AGC)
FEATURES:
• Touch Sensitivity guaranteed to 600pF Touch Plate Capacitance.
• Touch Operation independent of line plug polarity.
• Pin selection of three available Brightness Step Sequences.
• Minimal external components.
• AGC Loop stabilizes immediately after Power-Up.
• Brightness state is Off after AC power applied.
• Brightness state is unchanged if AC power interrupted for < 0.5 sec.
• Advanced CMOS design for reliable operating characteristics and low power.
• 50/60 Hz Line Frequency.
• 5V Operation (VDD - VSS).
• LS7541 (DIP); LS7541-S (SOIC) - See Figure 1 -

DESCRIPTION:
The LS7541 is a CMOS integrated circuit which provides trigger pulses for triac phase control of incandescent lamps.
The circuits are designed to operate with a wide variety of lamp sizes ranging from small table lamps to large floor lamps.
The AGC Loop automatically adjusts Touch Sensitivity to be independent of lamp size.
There are 3 different Brightness Step Sequences for each version of the IC which can be selected by the Three-State
MODE pin as shown in Table 1.

The lamp brightness is made to vary by changing the delay of the TRIG pulse to the triac from the zero-crossing of the
SYNC input. The delays are shown in Table 2 for 50Hz and 60Hz operation along with Delivered Power as a percentage
of Full Power. Figure 2 illustrates the delay.
