Design Highlights
Resistor RF1 is a fusible flame-proof type that acts as a fuse
in the event of a catastrophic failure. Diode D1 provides AC
input rectification while C1 and C2 provide smoothing and,
together with L1, act as a π filter. This filtering, together with
LinkSwitch-TN’s (U1) integrated switching frequency jitter,
provides a generous EMI margin (see Figure 3).
• Universal input
• Excellent regulation – 12 V ±8% and 5 V ±5%
(line, load, and tolerance)
• Temperature compensated
• Low stand-by input power consumption:
<300 mW at 230 VAC with 50 mW output load
• Meets CISPR-22/EN55022B limits for conducted
EMI with >10 dB margin
During each enabled switching cycle, U1’s internal MOSFET
is enabled, causing a linear ramp in current through L2 and
C5. Once the internal current limit is reached, the MOSFET
turns off, and the inductor current can freewheel via D2,
C5, and C6.
Operation
The circuit shown below provides two outputs, –5 V and
+7 V. Referencing the load to the –5 V output creates a 5 V
and 12 V output, the 5 V driving the control electronics and
the 12 V output the mechanical relays.
Regulation is maintained by adjusting the ratio of enabled to
disabled cycles. A cycle is skipped once the current into the
FEEDBACK (FB) pin exceeds 49 μA. As this is specified
at a voltage of 1.65 V, it allows this pin to can be used as a
reference. With the values of R1 and R2 as shown, this sets
the voltage across C5 plus C6 to 12 V.
This is ideal in applications where a negative gate drive is
required for controlling a triac. As the triac gate is referenced
to the RTN/N line when the control electronics are referenced
to the –5 V output (VEE), the gate can be driven with a 0 V to
–5 V signal (w.r.t. RTN/N).
The –5 V output is regulated by Q2 using VR1 as a reference.
Zener VR1 is biased with a fixed current of approximately 2
mA, set by R3, to reduce the voltage variation of VR1 and
therefore of the –5 V output over load changes. Resistor R4

and EMI requirements. For single 100/115 VAC
applications, the voltage of C1 and C2 can be reduced
to 200 V.
• For correct operation of Q1, select the value of R5 to
give 1 mA at no-load.
• Limit the maximum value of R4 such that a minimum
VCE voltage of 1 V appears on Q2. This ensures that
Q2 remains in linear operation when the 5 V output is
at full load.
This arrangement works well in this application, where the
load range is limited and the impact on efficiency of linear
regulation is minimized.

• Diode D2 must be an ultra-fast type. The MURS160
selected has a tRR of 25 ns; a slower ultra-fast diode
(≤50 ns) may be used, but efficiency may be reduced.
• A Zener with a low test current should be selected for
VR1. The initial tolerance directly affects the output
tolerance, a 2% part gives an overall variation including
line and load regulation of ±5%.
• The temperature coefficient of VR1 is –0.8 mV/°C, giving
a further ±0.4% variation over a temperature of 0 to 50 °C.
• R1 and R2 should be 1% parts for better accuracy of 12 V
output.
• Pre-loads R5 and R6 are only necessary if regulation at
no-load is required.
• For single 230 VAC applications, the value of C1 and C2
can be reduced to 2.2 μF, depending on differential surge

protects Q2 from short circuit conditions by limiting the collector
current, while R5 maintains regulation even if the -5 V output is
unloaded. Locating transistors Q1 and Q2 physically close to
one another provides tracking of VBE drops, minimizing output
voltage variation with temperature.
