Product details
Overview
HV9910CNG-G from Microchip Technology is an open-loop, peak-current-mode LED driver IC in 16-lead SOIC (NG) package, featuring internal 15–450 V linear regulator, constant-frequency or constant-off-time operation, 250 mV current sense threshold, and integrated over-temperature protection. It drives external N-channel MOSFETs in buck LED topologies for signage, backlighting, and DC/DC LED drivers.
For engineers reviewing the HV9910CNG-G datasheet, HV9910CNG-G pinout, HV9910CNG-G application, or HV9910CNG-G equivalent, key selection considerations include input voltage range (15–450 V), thermal shutdown at 140°C (typ.), PWM/linear dimming support, gate drive capability (±165 mA), and oscillator frequency programmability via RT pin.
Technical Context
The HV9910CNG-G implements open-loop peak-current control using dual comparators-one referenced to a fixed 250 mV threshold and the other to the adjustable LD pin voltage-enabling precise LED current regulation without loop compensation. Its internal linear regulator powers all circuitry directly from VIN, eliminating need for auxiliary low-voltage supply.
Operation mode is selected by RT pin connection: grounded for constant-frequency (20–120 kHz), tied to GATE for constant-off-time. The 150–315 ns current-sense blanking window prevents false turn-off during FET switching transients, while 80 ns comparator response ensures fast current limiting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Range | 15–450 V DC - enables direct high-voltage DC input without external bias supply |
| VDD Regulated Output | 7.5 V ±250 mV - powers internal logic and gate driver; stable across full input range |
| Current Sense Threshold | 250 mV (typ.) - sets LED current via external sense resistor; adjustable down to 0 V via LD pin |
| Oscillator Frequency | 20–120 kHz - selectable via RT resistor; supports both constant-frequency and constant-off-time modes |
| GATE Drive Strength | ±165 mA - sufficient to drive MOSFETs with ≤25 nC gate charge at ≤100 kHz |
| Thermal Shutdown | 140°C (typ.) with 20°C hysteresis - auto-recoverable protection preventing thermal runaway |
| PWM Dimming Input | TTL-compatible (0–1.0 V low / 2.4–VDD high); supports up to few kHz - enables fast, flicker-free LED intensity control |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead SOIC (NG), narrow body, RoHS-compliant (G suffix), tape-and-reel (M934).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 1) | High-voltage input | Connects to 15–450 V DC source; powers internal linear regulator |
| CS (Pin 4) | Current sense input | Monitors voltage across external sense resistor; triggers GATE turn-off when ≥250 mV or LD voltage |
| GND (Pin 5) | Power ground reference | Common return for internal circuits and external power stage |
| GATE (Pin 8) | Gate driver output | Drives external N-MOSFET; ±165 mA sink/source, 30–50 ns rise/fall time (500 pF load) |
| PWMD (Pin 12) | PWM dimming control | TTL-level input: low or open = GATE disabled; high = normal operation |
| VDD (Pin 13) | Internal supply rail | 7.5 V regulated output; must be bypassed with ≥0.1 µF low-ESR capacitor to GND |
| LD (Pin 14) | Linear dimming / current threshold adjust | Sets CS trip point from 0–250 mV; enables analog current scaling without changing RCS |
| RT (Pin 15) | Oscillator timing | Resistor to GND → constant frequency; resistor to GATE → constant off-time |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Open-loop peak-current control | Eliminates need for error amplifier, compensation network, or high-side current sensing - reduces BOM count and design complexity |
| Integrated 15–450 V linear regulator | Enables single-supply operation from wide-input DC rails without auxiliary bias supply or LDO |
| Dual dimming interface | Simultaneous TTL PWM (0–few kHz) and 0–250 mV linear inputs - supports flexible brightness control architectures |
| Programmable operation mode | Constant-frequency (stable EMI) or constant-off-time (inherent line regulation, >50% duty cycle capable) - selected by RT connection |
| Auto-recoverable thermal shutdown | Shuts down at 140°C (typ.) with 20°C hysteresis and draws <350 µA - protects against sustained overload without manual reset |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LED driver controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| HV9910BNG-G | Lacks built-in over-temperature protection; identical pinout and electrical specs otherwise | Not suitable for thermally constrained enclosures or unventilated designs without external thermal monitoring | Select HV9910CNG-G when autonomous thermal safety is required; HV9910BNG-G only if legacy compatibility or cost sensitivity outweighs OTP need |
| AL8862SP-13 | Constant-current buck controller with integrated 600 V MOSFET; no external FET required; 200 mV sense threshold | Higher integration reduces board area but limits max output current and thermal management flexibility vs. external-FET topology | Choose HV9910CNG-G for higher-power (>2 A), thermally optimized, or field-serviceable designs; AL8862SP-13 for ultra-compact sub-1 A modules |
Compared with HV9910BNG-G, HV9910CNG-G adds critical thermal autonomy without layout or pinout change; versus AL8862SP-13, it trades integration for scalability, thermal headroom, and design flexibility in medium-to-high-power LED systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for HV9910CNG-G?
The HV9910CNG-G has an absolute maximum VIN rating of +470 V, but its operational input voltage range is specified as 15–450 V DC. At the upper end, power dissipation limits practical use - for example, with 450 V input and 2 mA quiescent current, junction temperature rise must be managed via heatsinking or external Zener clamping per DS20005323A-page 7. Always verify thermal margin using θJA = 83°C/W for the 16-lead SOIC package.
Does HV9910CNG-G require an external power supply for VDD?
No, HV9910CNG-G does not require an external VDD supply. Its internal 15–450 V linear regulator generates a regulated 7.5 V output at the VDD pin when powered from VIN. However, VDD can also be driven externally with 7.5–12 V to disable the internal regulator - useful when lower VIN power loss is critical. In either case, VDD must be bypassed with ≥0.1 µF low-ESR capacitor to GND.
How does the HV9910CNG-G implement thermal protection?
HV9910CNG-G features auto-recoverable over-temperature protection that activates at 140°C (typ.) junction temperature, reducing VIN current to <350 µA. Hysteresis is 20°C (typ.), so the device resumes normal operation once junction temperature falls below ~120°C. This protection is fully internal - no external components or configuration are needed, and it operates independently of PWM or linear dimming states.
Can HV9910CNG-G operate in constant-frequency mode with dimming enabled?
Yes, HV9910CNG-G supports simultaneous constant-frequency operation and dimming. When RT is connected to GND, oscillator frequency is fixed (e.g., 100 kHz with 249 kΩ). PWM dimming via PWMD and linear dimming via LD remain fully functional regardless of oscillator mode - both adjust LED current without altering switching frequency or requiring additional control logic.
What is the purpose of the blanking time on the CS pin of HV9910CNG-G?
The HV9910CNG-G applies a 145–315 ns blanking interval after each GATE turn-on to ignore transient voltage spikes at the CS pin caused by MOSFET switching. This prevents false current-limit triggering during the turn-on edge. The blanking timer is internal and automatic - no external RC filter is required unless layout-induced noise exceeds this window, in which case a small RC network between RCS and CS may be added per DS20005323A-page 8.
