3 Hardware Overview

Figure 2 illustrates a LED lighting system running from DC power.

Figure 2. Lighting System Topology

There are multiple ways of controlling LEDs. This board uses the C2000 devices to control a separate DC

supply for each of the LED strings. Brightness control is accomplished using the C2000 devices by

independently varying the output power of each DC/DC stage. This allows the user to control the average

current passing through each LED string. Since average current is roughly proportional to lumen output,

each LED string’s brightness is controlled. Figure 3 shows the circuit diagram for the LED BoosterPack.

Figure 3. LED BoosterPack Circuit Diagram

3.1 Subsystems

The LED BoosterPack board is divided into functional groups referred to as subsystems. The following is a

list of the subsystems present on the board and brief descriptions of each:

•Power Supplies – Power is supplied to the board via a 12 V AC/DC wall adapter. This power is

stepped down using the Buck regulator to generate 5 V. The 5 V is used to power a 3.3 V LDO that

supplies power to the 3.3 V device present on the BoosterPack. Both the 3.3 V and 5 V power

domains can be selectively jumpered (via J2 and J8, respectively) to supply power to the

LaunchPadXL headers.

•Boost Converters – Boost converters are used to step up the 12 V input voltage to a voltage high

enough to forward bias the LEDs. The boost converters are driven by the EPWM peripheral present on

the F28027 device on the C2000 LaunchPad™.

•Current Feedback – Shunt resistors at the base of each LED string are used to convert the LED

current into a voltage that can be measured. The voltage from the sense resistors is passed to a set of

op-amps to amplify and filter the current feedback signal. They also serve the purpose of driving the

analog-to-digital converter (ADC) inputs.

•MSP430 Capacitive Touch – The LED BoosterPack includes an MSP430 device and headers such

that a Capacitive Touch BoosterPack can be plugged into the LED BoosterPack and used to control

the LEDs. Switch S1 can be used to connect or disconnect the MSP430’s serial peripheral to the

F28027 device’s serial peripheral present on the C2000 LaunchPad. If the user wishes to use the

capacitive touch demo, ensure S1 is in the up position while S4 on the LaunchPad is in the down

position.

– Advanced users can reprogram the MSP430 present on the LED BoosterPack by using J5.

Hardware Overview

Figure 4 illustrates the position of these subsystems on the board. The use of a subsystem approach, for

different power stages, enables easy debug and testing of one stage at a time.

Figure 4. LED BoosterPack Subsytem Locations

3.2 Powering the Board

The LED BoosterPack has three separate power domains and two major modes of operation: two power

domains are the primary power rails that feeds the three DC/DC power stages and the auxiliary power

supply rails that power all of the support chips, and is used to power the LaunchPad. The question of

which mode of operation should be used depends on whether the board is being used for evaluation or for

experimentation.

• Non-Isolated – Used to quickly show how the boards function with the supplied firmware. Power for the

LaunchPad is supplied via the USB. Power for the LED BoosterPack is supplied via the included 12 V

AC/DC adapter. With this configuration, your PC’s USB port is connected to the same ground as both

the LaunchPad and LED BoosterPack.

– Jumpers JP1, JP2, and JP3 on the LaunchPad should have jumpers placed on each post.

– Jumpers J2 and J8 on the LED BoosterPack should NOT have jumpers placed on each post.

– Connect the USB to the LaunchPad.

– Connect the included power adapter to the LED BoosterPacks’ J1.

• Isolated/Standalone – Used to protect the host PC while debugging the application, which may present

dangerous voltages to a PC or when the user wants to run a standalone application with a single

supply. Power for the entire system (both LaunchPad and LED BoosterPack) is supplied from the 12 V

AC/DC wall adapter. The USB can be optionally connected if the user wants to debug the application;

in this case, power for the emulator is supplied via USB. This mode provides the user with 2500 Vrms

of isolation to protect the computer in the event that dangerous transient voltages are present on the

board.

– Jumpers JP1, JP2, and JP3 on the LaunchPad should NOT have jumpers placed on each post.

– Jumpers J2 and J8 on the LED BoosterPack should have jumpers placed on each post.

– Connect the USB (optional, only used for debugging) to the LaunchPad.

– Connect the included power adapter to the LED BoosterPacks’ J1.
