RS2042
Green-Power PWM Controller
with Frequency Jiggling
DESCRIPTION
The RS2042 is a low startup current, low cost, current
mode PWM controller with Green-Power & Burst-mode
power-saving operation. The integrated functions such
as the leading-edge blanking of the current sensing,
internal slope compensation provide the users a high
efficiency, low external component counts, and low
cost solution for AC/DC power applications. The
special Green-Power function provides off-time
modulation to linearly decrease the switching
frequency under light-load conditions. And under
zero-load conditions, the power supply enters
Burst-mode to further reduce power consumption by
shutting off PWM output. When the output of power
supply is short or over loaded, the FB voltage will
increase, and if the FB voltage is higher than 5.2V for
longer than 56msec the PWM output will be turned off.
An external NTC resistor connected from pin RT to
ground can be applied to over-temperature protection.
Pulse by pulse current limit ensures a constant output
current even under short circuit. PWM output will be
disabled as long as VDD exceeds a threshold. When
internal latch circuit is used to latch-off the controller,
the latch will be reset when the power supply VDD is
disabled.

FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
START-UP CURRENT & OPERATING CURRENT
The typical start-up current is only 8μA. This allows a high resistance, low-wattage start-up resistor to be used, to
minimize power loss. A 1.5MΩ, 0.25W, start-up resistor and a 10μF/40V VDD hold-up capacitor would be sufficient for an
AC/DC adapter with a universal input range.
The required operating current has been reduced to 3.4 mA. This results in higher efficiency and reduces the VDD hold-up
capacitance requirement.
GREEN POWER OPERATION
The proprietary green-power mode function provides off-time modulation to continuously decrease the PWM frequency
under light-load conditions. To avoid acoustic-noise problem, the minimum PWM frequency set above 25 KHz. This
green-power mode function dramatically reduces power consumption under light-load and zero-load conditions. Power
supplies using a RS2042 controller can easily meet even the most restrictive international regulations regarding standby
power consumption.
OSCILLATOR OPERATION
A resistor connected from the RI pin to GND pin generates a constant current source for the RS2042 controller. This
current is used to determine the center PWM frequency. Increasing the resistance will reduce PWM frequency. Using a
26KΩ resistor RI results in a corresponding 67 KHz PWM frequency. The relationship between RI and the switching
frequency is:
fPWM 
1742
(KHz )
RI (K)
RS2042 also integrates frequency jiggling function internally. The frequency variation ranges from around 63 KHz to 70
KHz for a center frequency 67 KHz. The frequency jittering function helps reduce EMI emission of a power supply with
minimum line filters.
IRT 
70 A
* 26
RI (K)
Leading Edge Blanking
Each time the power MOSFET is switched on, a turn-on spike will inevitably occur at the sense-resistor. To avoid
premature termination of the switching pulse, a leading-edge blanking time is built in. During this blanking period, the
current-limit comparator is disabled, and it cannot switch off the gate drive.
Under-Voltage Lockout (UVLO)
The turn-on/turn-off thresholds are fixed internally at 12.4V/16.5V. To enable a RS2042 controller during start-up, the
hold-up capacitor must first be charged to 16.5V through the start-up resistor.
The hold-up capacitor will continue to supply VDD before energy can be delivered from the auxiliary winding of the main
transformer. VDD must not drop below 12.4V during this start-up process. This UVLO hysteresis window ensures that the
hold-up capacitor can adequately supply VDD during start-up.
GATE OUTPUT / SOFT DRIVING
The RS2042 output stage is a fast totem pole gate driver. Cross-conduction has been avoided to minimize heat
dissipation, increase efficiency, and enhance reliability. The output driver is clamped by an internal 18V Zener diode in
order to protect the power MOSFET transistors from any harmful over-voltage gate signals. A soft driving waveform is
implemented to minimize EMI.

Slope Compensation
The sensed voltage across the current sense resistor is used for peak-current-mode control and cycle-by-cycle current
limiting. The built-in slope compensation function improves power supply stability and prevents peak-current-mode
control from causing sub-harmonic oscillations. Within every switching cycle, the RS2042 controller produces a
positively sloped, synchronized ramp signal.
Constant Output Power Limit
When the SENSE voltage across the sense resistor R S reaches the threshold voltage, the output GATE drive will be
turned off following a small propagation delay T PD. This propagation delay will result in an additional current proportional
to TPD*VIN/LP. The propagation delay is nearly constant regardless of the input line voltage V IN. Higher input line voltages
will result in larger additional currents. Thus, under high input-line voltages the output power limit will be higher than
under low input-line voltages.
The output power limit variation can be significant over a wide range of AC input voltages. To compensate for this, the
threshold voltage is adjusted by the current IIN. Since the pin VIN is connected to the rectified input line voltage through
the start-up resistor, a higher line voltage will result in a higher current IIN through the pin VIN.
The threshold voltage decreases if the current IIN increases. A small threshold voltage will force the output GATE drive to
terminate earlier, thus reducing total PWM turn-on time, and making the output power equal to that of the low line input.
This proprietary internal compensation feature ensures a constant output power limit over a wide range of AC input
voltages (90VAC to 264VAC).
VDD Over-voltage Protection
VDD over-voltage protection has been built in to prevent damage due to over voltage conditions. When the voltage V DD
exceeds the internal threshold due to abnormal conditions, PWM output will be turned off. Over-voltage conditions are
usually caused by open feedback loops.
Limited Power Control
The FB voltage will increase every time the output of the power supply is shorted or over-loaded. If the FB voltage
remains higher than a built-in threshold for longer than TLPS, PWM output will then be turned off. As PWM output is
turned off, the supply voltage VDD will also begin decreasing.
When VDD goes below the turn-off threshold (eg, 12.4V) the controller will be totally shut down. VDD will be charged up to
the turn-on threshold voltage of 16.5V through the start-up resistor until PWM output is restarted. This protection feature
will continue to be activated as long as the over-loading condition persists. This will prevent the power supply from
overheating due to over loading conditions.
Thermal Protection
An external NTC thermistor can be connected from the RT pin to ground. A fixed current I RT is sourced from the RT pin.
Because the impedance of the NTC will decrease at high temperatures, when the voltage of the RT pin drops below
1.065V, PWM output will be disabled. The RT pin output current is related to the PWM frequency programming resistor
RI.
Noise Immunity
Noise from the current sense or the control signal may cause significant pulse width jitter, particularly in
continuous-conduction mode. Slope compensation helps alleviate this problem. Good placement and layout practices
should be followed. The designer should avoiding long PCB traces and component leads. Compensation and filter
components should be located near the RS2042. Finally, increasing the Power-MOS gate resistance is advised.
