FEATURES
The MP103 provides an easy and low cost
ACDC solution for less than 1W applications. It
is an off-line linear regulator that delivers good
efficiency while generating little EMI noise. It
provides an easy solution to step down the AC
line voltage to a regulated DC voltage. This offline linear regulator replaces the conventional
switching regulator, not needing a transformer
or an inductor. Due to its simplicity, it offers an
overall low BOM cost.

MP103 delivers nearly two times the output
power than the MP100 or MP100L by charging
its VB capacitor with an external bipolar
transistor.
MP103 maximizes efficiency by
minimizing the voltage drop between VB and
VOUT, while only charging VB when VIN is less
than approximately 32V. The MP103 enables
the overall system to meet standby power
requirements.

Notes:
1) Exceeding these ratings may damage the device.
2) The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the
maximum junction temperature TJ (MAX), the junction-toambient thermal resistance θJA, and the ambient temperature
TA. The maximum allowable continuous power dissipation at
any ambient temperature is calculated by PD (MAX) = (TJ
(MAX)-TA)/θJA. Exceeding the maximum allowable power
dissipation will cause excessive die temperature, and the
regulator will go into thermal shutdown. Internal thermal
shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent
damage.

MP103 EASYPOWERTM –HIGHER POWER OFFLINE INDUCTOR- LESS REGULATOR
OPERATION
MP103 employs a smart inductor-less regulator
design to supply a regulated DC voltage from
an AC input. A unique (patent pending) charge
algorithm transfers charge from the AC line
when the line voltage is below 32V to the VB
capacitor (C1 in the typical application diagram).
The VB capacitor is used as the charge
reservoir for an internal LDO to regulate VOUT.
There are two distinct modes of normal
operation; startup and steady state.
Startup
At start up, all pins are at zero volts, and the AC
line supplies power to VIN through the rectifier.
An internal 19mA current source is enabled
between VIN and DR. This current drives the
base of an external bipolar transistor which
charges the VB capacitor. This internal current
source is only enabled when VIN is within its
charging window, typically below 32V. This
charging technique minimizes power loss
during start up. During this start up condition,
VB<15.25V, the output regulator is disabled.
As long as VB < 15.25V, DR provides 19mA
during its charging window which limits the
output current if VB is shorted.
When
VB>15.25V, the output regulator is enabled,
and MP103 enters its steady state mode.
IDR
VB
Figure 2: Base Current vs. VB Voltage
Steady state
In steady state mode, DR current is increased
to 200mA. Figure 2 depicts the relationship of
the DR/base current to VB voltage. It is
enabled during its charging window of VIN<
32V.
This technique adaptively replenishes
the VB capacitor charge which supplies power

[t1, t2]: At the time of t1, the voltage of VB and
VIN is equal, then VIN is rising higher than VB,
so there will be some charge current flowing
into VB capacitor; At the time of t2, VIN reaches
the slow turn-off threshold, the input current
increased to its maximum value;

to the LDO. This enables good efficiency. An
internal comparator will limit the VB voltage.
These are the VB peak thresholds listed in the
electrical table. This further improves efficiency
by optimally limiting the drop out voltage
depending on VOUT. If VB falls below 7.6V,
the regulator will be disabled, turning off the
power supply.
The EMI performance is
enhanced by turning on and off the current
source at a controlled rate.
The following
sections describe in much more detail the
steady state operation.
[t2, t3]: To benefit the EMI performance, MP103
will turn on and turn off the external BJT slowly
with certain rate. At the time of t2, the driver
reduces the driver current slowly to turn off the
external BJT, at the time of t3, the external BJT
is totally turned off;
[t3, t4]: During this period, the VIN is higher
than the slow turn-off threshold, the driver is
turned off and no current flowing into VB
capacitor, the VB capacitor provides the power
to LDO for output load, at the time of t4, the
voltage of VB drops from v2 to v3;

MP103 EASYPOWERTM –HIGHER POWER OFFLINE INDUCTOR- LESS REGULATOR
[t4, t5]: At the time of t4, VIN falls to the slow
turn-on threshold; the driver current begins to
slowly rise to turn on the external BJT, at the
time of t5, the external BJT is fully on;
[t5, t6]: As VIN falls, the charging current is
decreased, and the VB voltage is increased by
the charge current. At the time of t6, VIN falls to
the value equal to VB voltage, there is no
current flowing into VB capacitor;
[t6, t1]: During this period, although the driver is
active, since VIN is lower than VB voltage, so
there is no charging current, the VB capacitor
provide the power for the output load and the
voltage drop from v4 to v1 at the time of t1;
Adaptive Active Charging Window
To minimize the power loss of BJT and LDO,
MP103 integrates an adaptive active charging
window control, which maintain the maximum
voltage difference between VB and VOUT stay
at a constant level, thus the VB peak voltage is
limited related to VOUT.
When VIN varies from high to low voltage into
its charging window and the VB voltage is lower
than VBPKLMT minus VBPKLMT_HYS, then the driver
will be turned on and VB capacitor will be
charged up. If VB voltage is charged up to its
peak limit VBPKLMT which is related with the
output voltage, then the driver will be slowly
turned off although VIN doesn’t reach its slow
turn-off threshold.
Figure 4 depicts the situation that VB reaches
its peak limit when VIN is in its charging window.

During steady state mode, to guarantee the
output get enough energy from input ports,
active bleeder circuit is enabled whenever the
VB voltage falls below VBBLDON.
Besides, when the power supply is shut down,
active bleeder circuit discharges the energy
stored in parasitic capacitor to ensure the circuit
can restart easily.
Short Circuit Protection
The output current is limited to 170mA (IOUTLMT)
if the output is shorted to ground, which also
decreases the VB voltage. When VB drops
below 7.6V (VBUVLO), the LDO turns off. The
input voltage then gradually charges VB up to
15.25V (VBTHOUT) to enable the LDO. When
LDO turns on, the output current drops the VB
voltage to 7.6V again. This process will
continue until the output short condition ceases.
Over Load Protection
The VB and VOUT voltages will drop
simultaneously if the output current exceeds its
normal value. When the VB voltage falls to 7.6V
(VBUVLO), the second stage LDO shuts down
immediately. Then the input voltage charges VB
to 15.25V (VBTHOUT) to enable the LDO. Due to
the output current limit circuit, the maximum
current is limited to 170mA (IOUTLMT) typically.
t
When VB is shorted to GND, the driver current
will be reduced to 19mA (IDRSTARTUP) typically to
decrease the power consumption of external
BJT, thus the thermal damage of external BJT
is prevented.

ambient temperature sensing and protection.
The value of the NTC resistor becomes lower
when the ambient temperature rises. With the
fixed internal current 80uA flowing through the
resistors, the voltage of RT pin becomes lower
at high temperature. When VRT is lower than
VRTTHL ( typically 0.8V ) , then internal OTP
circuit will be triggered and the BJT driver and
LDO will be shut down immediately. When VRT
is higher than VRTTHL plus VRTTH_HYS, then
MP103 will restart.
Thermal Shutdown Protection
Accurate temperature protection prevents the
chip from operating at exceedingly high
temperatures. When the silicon die temperature
exceeds 160oC, the whole chip shuts down.
When the temperature falls below its lower
threshold of 140 oC, the chip is enabled again.

APPLICATION INFROMATION
COMPONENT SELECTION
Setting the Output Voltage
The output voltage is set to 12V by internal large
feedback resistors. Typically, the internal upper
and lower feedback resistor is 1.125MΩ and
125kΩ respectively. Adjust VOUT by choosing
appropriate external feedback resistors. The
recommended output voltage is between 1.5V
and 15V. Defining the upper and lower feedback
resistors as RUP and RLW respectively (refer to the
picture in Typical Application section):
RUP = RLW × (
VOUT
− 1)
1.235
For the external resistors to dominate over the
internal resistors, select relatively small values of
RUP and RLW compared to the internal resistors.
However, to minimize the load consumption,
avoid very small external resistors. For most
applications, choose RLW=10.2kΩ. To accurately
set the output voltage, select RUP that can
counter the internal upper-feedback resistor
value of 1.125MΩ typically. The table below lists
typical resistor values for different output
voltages.

Selection of VB Capacitor
The bypass capacitor on the VB pin needs to be
sufficiently large to support sufficient energy.
Calculate the capacitance (in μF) based on the
following equation:
CVB
I ×τ
= OUT s
Vripple
Where, IOUT is the output current (mA); τ s is
based on the type of input rectifier—for example,
τ s is 20ms for a half-wave rectifier, and 10ms for
a full-bridge rectifier, Vripple is the voltage ripple on
MP103 Rev. 1.01

the VB capacitor—normally the ripple is limited to
2V to 3V. For best results, use a small ceramic
capacitor and a large aluminum capacitor in
parallel.
Output Power Capability
The following factors influence the MP103’s
maximum output power: the input rectifier (full
bridge or half-wave); the VB capacitor connected
between VB and GND; the DC current gain and
collector current of external BJT; the output
voltage and the temperature-rise requirement of
key components, which is relevant to different
application environments.

Figure 5 depicts the relationship between the
maximum output power and the VIN voltage
when the output voltage is 12V, 5V and 3.3V
respectively. The plots account for the full bridge
rectifiers, the temperature rise of MP103 is less
than 60 oC on the test board in 25 oC room
temperature test.

EMI
To meet the relevant conducted emissions
standard, slowly rise and fall the driver current is
adopted to turn on and turn off the external BJT.
Using this control method, a smaller X cap
connected between the input ports will pass EMI
with enough margins.
Besides, a capacitor connected between DR and
VB will further slow down the switching process
of external BJT for better EMI performance. The
larger value this capacitor used, the slower
switching process and better EMI performance
will be got, however, the more power losses will
be introduced by this capacitor and the longer
startup process will be, so it is a compromise to
select the value of the capacitor connected.
Generally, with a 100nF X cap connected to pass
EMI, a 2.2uF ceramic capacitor for 12V output
and 4.7uF ceramic capacitor for 5V output is a
good candidate to get good compromise.
Surge
From its working principle, MP103 is working just
when VIN falls into its charging window, so when
surges happen at this moment, then a lot of
energy will be absorbed by BJT and MP103 due
to the slow turn off process. To protect them from
damage, a fast turn off threshold (typically it is
71V) of VIN is set specially to shut down driver
current quickly.
Since there is no bulk capacitor to absorb AC line
transients, MOV should be used to protect the IC
to survive the surge test. Besides the value of
fuse resistor will also affect the surge result, the
larger value used, the better to facilitate to pass
the surge test, but the more power consumption
will be caused, in the meanwhile, the larger value
of fuse resistor used, the easier to trigger its fast
turn off threshold, so 10~20 Ω fuse resistor is
recommended in real application.
To pass 1kV surge test, 750V external BJT is
recommended considering some margin, MP103
can pass 1kV surge test with an appropriate
MOV such as TVR10431 connected between the
line input ports.
Besides, the thermal pad must be connected to
the GND for better surge performance.

PCB Layout Guide
PCB layout is very important to achieve good
regulation, ripple rejection, transient response
and thermal performance. It is highly
recommended to duplicate EVB layout for
optimum performance. If change is necessary,
please follow these guidelines and take figure 6
for reference.
1) Keep the trace from positive output rectifier to
VIN as short and wide as possible.
2) Minimize the loop area formed by positive
output of rectifier, emitter of external BJT and
GND.
3) Minimize the loop area formed by VIN,
collector of BJT, emitter of BJT.
4) Ensure all feedback connections are short
and direct. Place the feedback resistors and
compensation components as close to the
chip as possible.
5) Place the NTC resistor as close to external
BJT as possible for temperature detection
and effective protection.
6) Output capacitor should be put close to the
output terminal.
7) Connect the exposed pad with GND to a
large copper area to improve thermal
performance and long-term reliability.
