Product data sheet
1. General description
The SSL3401HN is a Switched Mode Power Supply (SMPS) controller IC. It operates in
combination with a phase cut dimmer and a 12 V (AC or DC) low voltage electronic or
magnetic transformer. It is designed to drive LED devices and include a dimmer
conduction phase detector.
The chip includes a hysteretic controller for the power converter. It is most suitable for use
with a linear LED current source. Two embedded Proportional-Integral (PI) controllers and
a 0.052 % resolution PWM generator, adjusted by the dimmer conduction phase, ensure
excellent LED current stability for a dimming range from 100 % to less than 5 %. It also
minimizes the power loss across the LED current source.
Several protection mechanisms are available:
• OverVoltage Protection (OVP)
• Coil Current Limitation (CCL)
• Short LED protection (SLED)
• Open LED protection (OLED)
• UnderVoltage LockOut (UVLO)
• Advanced adaptive OverTemperature Protection (OTP)
