Product details
Overview
SSL21083AT/1,118 from NXP Semiconductors is a high-voltage LED driver IC for non-dimmable mains-powered lighting, integrating a 600 V (DC) MOSFET and operating in boundary conduction mode (BCM) buck topology. It delivers ±5 % LED current accuracy, supports direct PWM current regulation, and achieves up to 95 % efficiency in compact PCB designs targeting 230 V AC input.
For engineers reviewing the SSL21083AT/1,118 datasheet, SSL21083AT/1,118 pinout, SSL21083AT/1,118 application, or SSL21083AT/1,118 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed protection features (UVLO, OCP, OTP, OSP), and real-world design implications for fixed-current LED lamp implementations.
Technical Context
The SSL21083AT/1,118 implements a peak-current-controlled BCM buck converter with valley detection on the DRAIN pin to enable zero-voltage switching and minimize capacitive losses. Its internal 600 V MOSFET operates with RDS(on) = 5 Ω (Tj = 25 °C) and supports dV/dt-based self-supply via the DVDT pin.
Startup is enabled by an internal HV current source (350 µA typical), followed by dV/dt supply operation; VCC regulation includes hysteresis (VCC(startup) = 12 V, VCC(stop) = 9 V) and an internal clamp limiting VCC to 14 V. Protection logic includes latched SWP/OSP and safe-restart OTP/LED thermal control via the NTC pin.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDRAIN max | 600 V DC - enables direct interface with 230 V AC rectified input without external HV switch |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| HV | High-voltage startup supply | Accepts up to 600 V DC; powers internal current source during startup before dV/dt supply engages |
| SOURCE | MOSFET source node / current sense | Connects to external sense resistor; voltage threshold (500 mV typ.) triggers OCP and SWP |
| VCC | Internal regulator input | Supplied by dV/dt rectifier or external source; clamped at 14 V; controls UVLO and restart behavior |
| NTC | Thermal/PWM control input | Accepts NTC thermistor for LED temperature foldback or digital signal for PWM current regulation |
| DVDT | AC-coupled supply input | Rectifies voltage swing from drain node to generate VCC; eliminates need for auxiliary winding |
| GND | Power and signal reference | Pins 6 and 7 are internally bonded - must be connected to common ground plane for noise immunity |
| DRAIN | MOSFET drain terminal | Switches 600 V DC; valley detection circuitry monitors oscillation for ZVS timing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Boundary conduction mode (BCM) control | Eliminates reverse recovery losses in freewheel diode and enables ZCS turn-on, reducing EMI and improving efficiency |
| Integrated 600 V MOSFET | Removes need for external HV switch and gate driver, cutting BOM count and layout area in 230 V AC applications |
| Valley detection on DRAIN pin | Reduces switching losses by triggering MOSFET turn-on at voltage minima, lowering dV/dt stress and heat generation |
| Direct PWM current regulation | Enables digital brightness control without external dimming circuitry-NTC pin accepts logic-level PWM signals |
| Latched Output Short Protection (OSP) | Halts operation during LED string short; requires power cycle reset-prevents thermal runaway in fault conditions |
| No LED forward voltage binning required | Fixed-current regulation maintains consistent light output across varying VF LEDs, simplifying manufacturing and sourcing |
