6. INDUCTOR CONSTRUCTION
The CDB1611-8W includes a critical conduction mode (CRM) boost converter that provides power factor correction
and dimmer compatibility with a constant output current, quasi-resonant flyback stage. The following sections de-
scribe the boost and flyback inductors installed on the CDB1611-8W.
6.1 Boost Inductor
The CS1611 uses an adaptive dimmer compatibility algorithm to control the boost inductor stage, which guarantees
dimmer compatibility operation plus enables flicker-free operation with leading-edge, trailing-edge, and digital dim-
mers (dimmers with an integrated power supply). The boost auxiliary winding is used for zero-current detection
(ZCD) and supplies power to the CS1611.
