2. Safety warning
This evaluation board is connected to a high AC voltage (up to 200 V). Avoid touching the
reference board during operation. An isolated housing is mandatory when used in
uncontrolled, non-laboratory environments. Galvanic isolation of the mains phase using a
fixed or variable transformer (Variac) is always recommended. The symbols shown in
Figure 2
indicate these devices.

5. Board Information
The input section includes the fuse; surge protection against fast AC transients; EMI filter;
double side rectifier and pre-conditioner or power factor correct (PFC). The output of the
PFC connects to a buffer electrolytic capacitor to supply the half-bridge circuit. The lamp
connects to the half-bridge circuit. The UBA2015AP controller IC controls the PFC and the
half-bridge circuit. A low-voltage control input is present to control the dimming of the lamp
light output.
The PFC is implemented as an up-converter in boundary conduction mode. The resonant
circuit is voltage fed by the half-bridge which consists of two NMOST transistors. The
resonant circuit includes a transformer for electrode preheating and heating.
The type of ballast presented here is used for most ballast for lamp powers above 25 W. It
has proven to be a cost effective application.
Remark: Some of the components are overrated for this evaluation board. When
designing a final application, some component ratings can be lowered and some circuits
can be simplified or combined to reduce component count and costs.
5.1 Dimming without using an external voltage source
The ballast is dimmed with a voltage source of 1 V (DC) to 10 V (DC) connected to
connector X7.
It is also possible to dim with an external potentiometer of 470 k (for example, no
external voltage supply is available). The potentiometer must connect to pin 1 (black wire,
DIM) and pin 2 (red wire, DIM+) of connector X7.
5.2 Half-bridge operating principle
This topology supports dimming and preheat times below 1 s for T5 lamps. It uses an
additional transformer for preheating/heating the filaments.

When the lamp is off, two resonant frequencies can be distinguished. A main resonant
frequency f
res
and a second frequency f
sec
. Approaching f
res
will ignite the lamp:
(1)
Preheating the electrodes near f
sec
increases the preheat current without increasing the
filament current during normal operation. In dimmable applications, this aids compliance
with the lamp sum of squares requirement.
(2)
Rx is used to limit the voltage across Cx and LxA when the lamp is removed during
preheat or ignition.

The UBA2015AP controller starts at 100 kHz and sweeps down until the preheat
frequency is reached. The resistor on pin PH/EN sets the preheat frequency. During
preheat, the LC tank voltage remains below 200 V to prevent early ignition and glow.

UBA2015AP 120 V (AC) evaluation board
5.4 Functional description
The mains voltage is applied to the board and current flows through R6 and R9 to the
supply of the controller (VDD pin). When the current through R6 and R9 is higher than
240 A (I
stb(VDD)
), the controller the VDD voltage rises. When the VDD voltage is above
4.2 V (V
rst(VDD)
), the half-bridge circuit low-side MOSFET switches on and the floating
supply capacitor C1 is pre-charged.
The controller starts oscillating when the VDD voltage is above the 12.4 V (V
startup(VDD)
).
The PFC gate driver starts and the HB gate drivers start oscillating at 100 kHz (f
sw(high)
).
The dV/dt supply with capacitor C22 takes over the VDD supply to supply the IC with
enough energy for the gate drivers. The preheat timer starts and the controller sweeps the
frequency down from 100 kHz to the preheat frequency set by the PH/EN pin. The
oscillator remains at the preheat frequency until the preheat timer has ended.
When the preheat ends, the controller sweeps down to the half-bridge switching
frequency. The lamp ignites when the LC tank voltage reaches the lamp ignition voltage.
The ignition frequency is typically 50 kHz. The lamp current increases and the LC tank
voltage decreases. The controller senses the lamp current and LC tank voltage. When the
lamp current is high enough and the LC tank voltage is low enough for 3 ms
(V
IFB
>V
th(lod)IFB
and V
VFB
<V
th(lod)VFB
for t
d(lod)
), the controller assumes that the lamp is
on. The controller enters burn state.
In burn state, all the protection features are activated. The controller closes the lamp
current control loop and the oscillator regulates the half-bridge switching frequency. The
half-bridge frequency is regulated and reaches its set point when the average absolute
IFB pin voltage equals the DIM pin voltage.
5.4.1 Start-up current, relamp and antistriation
The VDD supply of the IC is charged with a start-up current derived from the rectified
mains voltage. Resistor R2 provides the current path and determines the start-up voltage
level.
When the lamp is removed while the IC is set to deep dimming, a protection is triggered
and the controller is shut down. In this board, transistor Q7 pulls down the VDD voltage.
The signal RELAMP indicates the filament of the lamp and controls transistor Q7. The
pull-down by Q7 is released when the lamp is inserted.
UBA2015P and UBA2015AP can also be disabled by pulling down the voltage on the
PH/EN pin.
The RELAMP signal is generated with a DC current injection on the DC blocking capacitor
C8. This DC current also takes care of the antistriation function.

UBA2015AP 120 V (AC) evaluation board
5.5.2.1 UBA2015P
The UBA2015P IC is a non-dimmable version with fixed frequency preheat option. The
UBA2015P does not support boost.
The default jumper settings are suited. The DIM input pin of the UBA2015P is internally
not connected.
5.5.2.2 UBA2016AP
The UBA2016AP IC is a dimmable version with no fixed frequency preheat option. The
UBA2015AP supports boost.
5.5.3 Evaluation features and alternative jumper settings
5.5.3.1 PFC overcurrent adjustment
[1] Default setting.
5.5.3.2 External supply for the half-bridge circuit with PFC disabled
Experimenting with an external voltage (laboratory supply or separate PFC controller) for
the BUS is possible. Fix the PFC feedback signal FBPFC and the COMPFC to 1.24 V.
The default bus voltage is 420 V (DC). When adjusting the bus voltage it is advised to
disable the EOL protection with jumper J12.
The external laboratory supply must connect to the BRIDGE (TP1) because the start-up
current supplies the VDD pin.
5.5.3.3 Bus voltage adjustment with PFC enabled
The default bus voltage is 420 V (DC). With the alternative jumper settings shown in this
paragraph, it is possible to adjust the bus voltage. When adjusting the bus voltage, it is
advised the EOL protection is disabled using jumper J12.

5.5.3.4 Half-bridge frequency control loop options
The default setting is lamp current control. The controller can regulate any other signal
such as the HB current. The controller increases the half-bridge switching frequency when
the feedback signal is too high. The controller decreases the half-bridge switching
frequency when the feedback signal is too low.
[1] Default setting.
HB current sense (J15 closed 2-3): Some LC tank topologies allow dimming to 10 % via
the HB current sense. The HB current is fed back to the IFB pin and the controller
regulates the HB current.
Remark: The LC tank topology on this board is not suited for dimming via the HB current
sense. A dedicated LC circuit could be placed in the experiment area, see
NXP Semiconductors AN10872 for suitable series resonant type of circuits.
Disabled (J15 open): The IFB pin is internally pulled down to ground level when the IFB
pin is left open. The controller then operates at the minimum operating frequency set by
the CF capacitor. The default minimum operating frequency is default 43 kHz.
Remark: It is recommended to connect the IFB pin to ground instead of leaving J15 open
to avoid interference on the PCB track.
5.5.3.5 Lamp current sense
There are two lamp current sense circuits on the evaluation board; by default the
non-linear sense circuit is selected.
The IC contains a double-sided rectifier. This setup means that no rectification is required
in the sense circuit.
