8. Test Waveforms 8.1. Typical Waveforms: Startup Figure 8 through Figure 11 show the typical startup performance at different input voltage conditions. When AC input voltage is applied to the system, the FL7701 automatically operates in AC Mode after finishing an internally fixed, seven-cycle, softstart period. Figure 10 and Figure 11 show the soft-start characteristics when a DC input voltage is applied. CH1: VCC, CH2: VDRAIN, CH3: VLED, CH4: ILED CH1: VCC, CH2: VDRAIN, CH3: VLED, CH4: ILED Figure 8.
8.2. Operating Frequency & Minimum Duty The programmable switching frequency is between 20kHz ~ 250kHz, determined by selecting the RT resistor value. If no RT resistor is used (RT pin OPEN), the FL7701 default switching frequency is set to 45kHz. The maximum duty ratio is fixed below 50% and has a fixed minimum typical on-time of 400ns. There are two crucial points to design properly.
8.3. Typical Waveforms: Steady State Figure 13 through Figure 22 show the normal operation waveform by input voltage & input frequency. The output voltage and current maintains a certain output level with 120Hz ripple, as shown in the test results in Table 2.

8.4. Typical Waveforms: Abnormal Mode (LED Open) Figure 23 and Figure 24 show the open-load condition test method and result. When the LED disconnects from the system, the IC cannot operate because the HV pin is disconnected. Figure 23.

8.5. Typical Waveforms: Abnormal Mode (Inductor Short Condition) Figure 25 and Figure 26 show the test method and result of an inductor short condition. The FL7701 uses an abnormal over-current protection (AOCP) function, limiting the current on RCS in the event of an inductor short condition. Figure 25.

9.4. Thermal Performance Figure 30 through Figure 37 show the steady-state thermal results with different input voltage conditions. Inductor L3 has the highest temperature on the top side of the PCB due to copper resistance.
