R(T)C(T)
Oscillator timing components
1
EA OUT
PFC Error Amplifier output and
compensation node
INTERRUPT Input used for lamp-out detection and
restart. A voltage greater than 7.5 volts
resets the chip and causes a restart
2
IA OUT
Output and compensation node of the
PFC average current transconductance
amplifier.
after a programmable interval.
10 R(X)/C(X)
Sets the timing for the preheat,
dimming lockout, and interrupt
3
4
I(SINE)
IA+
PFC gain modulator input.
Non-inverting input of the PFC
average current transconductance
amplifier and peak current sense point
of the PFC cycle by cycle current limit
comparator.
11 GND

16 VCC
Power ground for the IC
Ballast MOSFET drive output
Ballast MOSFET drive output
Power Factor MOSFET drive output
Positive Supply for the IC
5
LAMP F.B. Inverting input of an Error Amplifier
used to sense (and regulate) lamp arc
current. Also the input node for
dimming control.

LFB OUT
Output from the Lamp Current Error
Transconductance Amplifier used for
lamp current loop compensation
17 V
Buffered output for the 7.5V voltage
reference
