5
Low Frequency PWM Dimming pin, also Enable input. Internal 200kΩ pull-down to GND.
V
DD
6 6
Internally regulated supply voltage.
7.5V nominal for AL9910 and AL9910-5
10V nominal for AL9910A.
Can supply up to 1 mA for external circuitry. A sufficient storage capacitor is used to provide storage when
the rectified AC input is near the zero crossing.
LD
7 7
Linear Dimming Input. Changes the current limit threshold at current sense comparator and changes the
average LED current.
R
OSC
8 8
Oscillator Control. A resistor connected between this pin and ground sets the PWM frequency. The devices
can be switched into constant off time (PFM) mode by connecting the external oscillator resistor between
R
OSC
pin and the gate of the external MOSFET.
EP PAD
N/A
EP
Exposed Pad (bottom). Connect to GND directly underneath the package.
