Extended(+60V) I-V curve for 36V white COB LED

Extended(+60V) I-V curve for 36V white COB LED

I've only asked from the internet, lately I realized I must also share. This will be the first piece of information I share, that I would've found valuable if I'd came upon.

I was making an LED stroboscope, to make it work, it felt right to overdrive an LED since the on time would be very very short(under 1ms) and a bigger LED would just be a waste. So, I needed information on what would happen if an LED was driven way above the rated forward voltage. Datasheets provide a graph up to 42V for 36V leds, but nothing beyond. There are some written information here and there on the internet that the LEDs are basically thermally limited, but no experiment results. So I improvised an experimental setup and got the data myself.

Experimental setup is a modified XL6009 dc-dc step up supply that is adjustable up to 62 Volts, a 1000uf 100V electrolytic capacitor for high voltage storage, a simple optocoupler driven mosfet module available on maker stores, a series shunt resistor of value 0.1 ohms, a digital oscilloscope and a 36V COB LED array SDW01F1C DB3E-V0 made by Seoul. Also a current limiting resistor right after the XL6009 to prevent it from overloading during pulses, as the capacitor is the main LED power supply.

A stm32f103 bluepill board triggers the optocoupler-mosfet switch once a second, for 500us. Mosfet switches the bare high DC voltage on the capacitor to the LED. XL6009 output voltage is adjusted in 1 volt steps and resulting voltage drop on the shunt resistor during the LED on time is measured through the oscilloscope. This experimental setup is limited by the XL6009 ic which normally has its output pin voltage listed as 60V in absolute maximum ratings, this setup goes 2 volts above that. I didn't wanna try more. I want to take it further with a higher votlage DC power supply.

Findings:

As you can see from the graph, the I-V relation is pretty linear, with a slight curve visible. with almost double the voltage, current increases tenfold.

Forward current at a certain forward voltage is temperature dependent, I've observed it during the experiment but did not record.

The LED only heats up almost as if the average power it's being driven with that average power continuously. Of course, the LED light efficiency drops as the forward current increases, but not by orders.

I got the LED pretty hot with extended pulses(60ms at 50V), and the LED was not measurably damaged. It really seems the LED drive current is indeed limited by the junction temperature, and drive conditions way above maximum ratings don't just magically burn things without heating them up first.

I reckon you can extrapolate other LEDs I-V graphs upto double the rated forward voltage and be safe, provided that you don't exceed rated power in average. I've also tested a 5mm THT white LED with the same setup and it behaved pretty much in a similiar way.

I hope you find it useful.

A negative current source with PWM input and LM337 output

EDN Network - Чтв, 04/10/2025 - 17:13

Figure 1’s negative constant current source has been a textbook application for the LM337 regulator forever (or thereabouts). It precisely maintains a constant output current (Iout) by forcing the OUTPUT pin to be the negative Vadj relative to the ADJ pin. Thus, Iout = Vadj/Rs

Figure 1 Classic LM337 constant negative current source where Iout ≃ Vadj/Rs = 1.25/Rs.

Wow the engineering world with your unique design: Design Ideas Submission Guide

It has worked well for half a century despite its inflexibility. I say it’s inflexible because the way you program Iout is by changing Rs. It may be hard to believe that a part so mature (okay old) as the 337 might have any new tricks left to learn, but Figure 2 teaches it one anyway. It’s a novel topology with better agility. It leaves the resistors constant and instead programs Iout with the (much smaller) control current (Ic). 

 

Figure 2 Rc typically >100Rs, therefore Ic < Iout/100 and Iout ≃ -(1.25 – (IcRc))/Rs.

Rc > 100Rs allows control of current of Iout with only milliamps of Ic. Figure 3 shows the idea fleshed out into a complete PWM-controlled 18 V, 1 A grounded-load negative current source.

Figure 3 An 18 V, 1 A, PWM-programmed grounded load negative current source with a novel LM337 topology. With this topology, accuracy is insensitive to supply rail tolerance. The asterisked resistors are 1% or better and Rs = 1.25 Ω.

The PWM frequency, Fpwm, is assumed to be 10 kHz or thereabouts, if it isn’t, scale C1 and C3 appropriately with:

C1 = 0.5µF*10kHz/Fpwm and,

C3 = 2µF*10kHz/Fpwm.

The resulting 5-Vpp PWM switching by Q1 creates a variable resistance averaged by C1 to R4/Df, where Df = the 0 to 1 PWM duty factor. Thus, at Z1’s Adj point:

Ic = 0 to 1.24V/R4 = 3.1 mA,

The second-order PWM ripple filtering gives a respectable 8-bit settling time of 6 ms with Fpwm = 10 kHz.

Z1 servos the V1 gate drive of Q3 to hold the FET’s source at its precision 1.24-V reference and then level shift the resulting Ic to track U1’s ADJ pin. Also summed with Ic is Iadj bias compensation (1.24V/20k = 62µA) provided by R2.

This term zeros out U1’s typical Iadj and cuts its max 100 µA error by 60%. Meanwhile, D1 insures that Iout is forced to zero when 5 V drops by saturating Q2 and making Ic large enough to turn U1 completely off, thus protecting the load.

About the 1N4001 daisy chain: There’s a possibility of Iout > 0 at Ic = max and a resulting reverse bias of the load; some loads might not tolerate this. The 1N4001s block that, and also provide bias for the power-down cutoff of Iout when +5-V rail shuts down.

Note that the accuracy of IcRc = Vadj is assured by the match of the Rc resistors and precision of the Z1 and U1 internal references. It’s therefore independent of the tolerance of the +5-V rail, although it should be accurate to ± 5% for best PWM ripple suppression. Iout is linear with PWM duty factor Df = 0 to 1:

Iout = -1.25 Df/Rs

If Rs = 1.25 Ω, then Iout(max) = 1 A. 

Note that U1 may have to dissipate as much as 23 W if Iout(max) = 1 A and the load voltage is low. Moral of the story: Be generous with the heatsink area! Also, Rs should be rated for a wattage of 1.252/Rs.
