Integrated PFC and flyback controller
1. Introduction
The TEA1750 is a combination controller with a PFC and flyback controller integrated in to
an SO-16 package. Both controllers operate in QR / DCM mode with valley detection. The
switching is independent for each controller.
The PFC output power is on-time controlled for simplicity. It is not necessary to sense the
phase of the mains voltage. The flyback output power is Current mode controlled for good
suppression of input voltage ripple.
The communication circuitry between both controllers is integrated and no adjustment is
needed.
The voltage and current levels mentioned in this application note are typical values. A
detailed description of the pin level spreading can be found in the TEA1750 data sheet.

VCC
Functional description
Supply voltage: Vstartup = 22 V, Vth(UVLO) = 15 V.
At mains switch-on, the capacitor connected to this pin is charged to Vstartup
by the internal HV current source. When the pin voltage is lower than 0.65 V,
the charge current is limited to 1 mA, this to prevent overheating of the IC if
the VCC pin is short circuited. When the pin voltage is between 0.65 V and
Vth(UVLO), the charge current is 5.4 mA to enable a fast start-up. Between
Vth(UVLO) and Vstartup, the charge current is again limited to 1 mA, this to
reduce the safe restart duty cycle and as a result the input power during
fault conditions. At the moment Vstartup is reached the current source is
pinched-off, and VCC is regulated to Vstartup till the flyback starts. See
Section 3.2 for a complete description of the start-up sequence.
2
GND
Ground connection.
3
FBCTRL
Control input for flyback for direct connection of the opto-coupler. At a
control voltage of 2 V the flyback will deliver maximum power. At a control
voltage of 1.5 V the flyback will enter the Frequency Reduction mode and
the PFC will be set into Burst mode. At 1.4 V the flyback will stop switching.
Internal there is a 30 μA current source connected to the pin, which is
controlled by the internal logic. This current source can be used to
implement a time-out function to detect an open control loop or a short
circuit of the output voltage. The time-out function can be disabled with a
resistor of 100 kΩ between this pin and ground.
4
FBAUX
Input from auxiliary winding for transformer demagnetization detection and
overvoltage protection (OVP) of the flyback.
The combination of the demagnetization detection at the FBAUX pin and the
valley detection at the HV pin are determining the switch-on moment of the
flyback in the valley.
A flyback OVP is detected at a current > 300 μA into the FBAUX pin.
Internal filtering is present to prevent false detection of an OVP at mains
transients or an ESD event.
5
LATCH
General purpose latched protection input. When Vstartup (pin 1) is reached,
this pin is charged to a voltage of 1.35 V first before the PFC is enabled. To
trigger the latched protection the pin has to be pulled down to below 1.25 V.
An internal 80 μA current source is connected to the pin, which is controlled
by the internal logic. Because of this current source, a NTC resistor for
temperature protection can be directly connected to this pin.
6
PFCCOMP
Frequency compensation pin for the PFC control loop.

VINSENSE
Sense input for mains voltage. This pin has 4 functions:
•
•
•
mains enable level: Vstart(VINSENSE) = 1.15 V;
•
The mains-enable and mains-stop level will enable and disable the
PFC.
mains stop level (brown-out): Vstop(VINSENSE) = 0.9 V;
mains voltage compensation for the PFC control-loop gain bandwidth;
fast latch reset: Vflr = 0.75 V.
Enabling and disabling the flyback is controlled through a comparator at the
VOSENSE pin.
The voltage at the VINSENSE pin must be an averaged DC value,
representing the AC line voltage. The pin is not used for sensing the phase
of the mains voltage.
8
PFCAUX
Input from an auxiliary winding of the PFC coil for demagnetization timing
and valley detection to control the PFC switching. The auxiliary winding
needs to be connected by a 5 kΩ series resistor to prevent damage of the
input due to lightning surges.
9
VOSENSE
Sense input for output voltage of the PFC.
VOSENSE pin, short detection: Vth(ol)(VOSENSE) = 0.4 V
Regulation of PFC output-voltage: Vreg(VOSENSE) = 2.5 V
PFC soft-OVP (switching cycle by switching cycle): Vovp(VOSENSE) = 2.63 V
PFC burst window lower voltage: Vburst(L) = 1.92 V
PFC burst window upper voltage: Vburst(H) = 2.24 V
Flyback start voltage: Vstart(fb) = 1.72 V
Flyback stop voltage: Vstop(fb) = 1.6 V
10
FBSENSE
Current sense input for flyback. At this pin, the voltage across the flyback
current sense resistor is measured. The setting of the sense level is
determined by the FBCTRL voltage, using the equation:
VFBSENSE = 0.75 x VFBCTRL – 1 V.
The maximum setting level for VFBSENSE = 0.5 V.
Internal there is a 60 μA current source connected to the pin, which is
controlled by the internal logic. The current source is used to implement a
soft start function for the flyback and to enable the flyback. The flyback will
only start when the internal current source is able to charge the soft start
capacitor to a voltage of more than 0.5 V, therefore a minimum soft start
resistor of 12 kΩ is required to guarantee the enabling of the flyback.
11
PFCSENSE
Overcurrent protection input for PFC.
This input is used to limit the maximum peak current in the PFC core. The
PFCSENSE is a cycle by cycle protection, at 0.5 V the PFC MOSFET is
switched off.
There is an internal 60 μA current-source connected to the pin, which is
controlled by the internal logic. This current source is used to implement a
soft start and soft stop function for the PFC, this to prevent audible noise in
PFC Burst mode. This pin is also used for enabling of the PFC. The PFC will
only start when the internal current source is able to charge the soft start
capacitor to a voltage of more than 0.5 V, therefore a minimum soft start
resistor of 12 kΩ is required to guarantee the enabling of the PFC.

3. System description and calculation
3.1 PFC and flyback start conditions
In Figure 2 and Figure 3, the conditions for enabling of the PFC and flyback are given. In
case of start-up problems these condition can be checked to find the cause of the
problem. Some of the conditions are dynamic signals (see Figure 4) and should be
checked with an oscilloscope.

3.2 Start-up sequence at a low mains voltage
At switch on with a low mains voltage, the TEA1750 power supply has the following
start-up sequence (see also Figure 4):
1. The HV current source is set to 1 mA and the VCC elcap is charged to 0.65 V; this to
detect a possible short circuit at pin VCC.
2. At VCC = 0.65 V, the HV current source is set to 5.4 mA and the VCC elcap is fast
charged to VTH(UVLO).
3. At VCC = VTH(UVLO), the HV current source is set to 1 mA again and the VCC elcap is
charged further to Vstartup.
4. At Vstartup, the HV current source is switched off and the 80 mA LATCH pin current
source is switched on to charge the LATCH pin capacitor. At the same time the
PFCSENSE and FBSENSE soft start current sources are switched on.
5. When the LATCH pin is charged up to 1.35 V the HV current source is switched on
again and the VCC elcap is charged and regulated to Vstartup.
6. When the VINSENSE pin has reached a level of 1.15 V, the PFC can start switching,
but only if the PFCSENSE pin is charged up to 0.5 V and the LATCH pin is charged to
1.35 V. Also the VOSENSE pin must be >0.4 V. The VOSENSE pin will always be
>0.4 V at 90 V (AC), unless there is a short circuit.

7. When the VOSENSE pin detects 1.72 V (equal to approximately 265 V (DC) at the
boost elcap), the HV current source is switched off, the FBCTRL time-out current
source is switched on, and the flyback is started. The flyback is only started when the
FBSENSE pin is charged to 0.5 V, and the FBCTRL pin is below 4.5 V. Normally the
FBCTRL pin will be below 4.5 V at the first flyback switching cycle, unless the
FBCTRL pin is open.
8. When the flyback has reached its nominal output voltage, then the VCC supply of the
IC is taken over through the auxiliary winding. If, for any reason, the flyback feedback
loop signal is missing, then the time-out protection at the FBCTRL will be triggered
and both converters the PFC and the flyback will be switched off. VCC will drop to
VTH(UVLO) and the IC will continue with step 3 of the start-up cycle as described in
Section 3.2. This is the safe restart cycle.

3.3 Start-up sequence at high mains
For the internal IC logic, the start-up sequence at high mains is equal to the start-up
sequence at low mains. In the application however, there are some differences.
At switch-on with a high mains voltage, the rectified mains is causing a voltage at the
VOSENSE pin which is instantaneously above the Vstart(FB) level of 1.72 V, therefore steps
6 and 7 as described in Section 3.2 will be merged. The PFC and flyback will start at the
same time, but only if the VINSENSE pin has reached 1.15 V, the LATCH pin is charged to
1.35 V and both soft start capacitors at the PFCSENSE pin and the FBSENSE pin are
charged to 0.5 V. The charge time of the soft start capacitors can be chosen by their
values independently for the PFC and the flyback. This way it can be realized that the
PFC starts before the flyback.
3.4 VCC cycle at safe restart protections
In Safe Restart mode the controller will go through the steps 3 to 8 as described in
Section 3.2 and Section 3.3.
3.5 Mains voltage sensing and brownout
The mains input voltage is measured at the VINSENSE pin. When the VINSENSE pin has
reached the Vstart(VINSENSE) level of 1.15 V, the PFC can start switching, but only if the
other start conditions shown in Section 3.1 are also met. As soon as the voltage at the
VINSENSE pin drops below the Vstop(VINSENSE) level of 0.89 V, the PFC will stop
switching. The flyback will continue switching until the level at the VOSENSE pin has
dropped below the Vstop(fb) level of 1.6 V.
The voltage at the VINSENSE pin must be an average DC value, representing the mains
input voltage. The system works optimal with a time constant of approximately 150 ms at
the VINSENSE pin. The long time constant at the VINSENSE pin would prevent a fast
restart of the PFC after a mains drop-out, therefore the voltage at the VINSENSE pin is
clamped to a level of 100 mV below the Vstart(VINSENSE) level, this to guarantee a fast PFC
restart after recovery of the mains input voltage.

3.5.1 Discharge of mains input capacitor
For safety, according to Ref. 1, the X-capacitors in the EMC input filtering must be
discharged with a time constant τ < 1 s.
The resistor to discharge the X-cap in the input filtering, is determined by the replacement
value of R1+ R2.
In a typical 90 W adapter application with Cx1 = 220 nF, the replacement value of R1 + R2
must be smaller than or equal to the following:
τ

R V ≤ ---- = ---------------- = 4.55MΩ
C
220nF
3.5.2 Brownout voltage adjustment
The rectified AC input voltage is measured via R1 and R2. Each resistor alternately
senses half the sine wave, so both resistors must have the same value.
The average voltage sensed at the connection of R1 and R2 is as follows:

V avg = ---------- ⋅ V acrms

The V (AC) brownout RMS level is calculated as follows:

A value of 3.3 μF for capacitor C20, with 47 kΩ at R4, gives the recommended time

3.6 Internal OTP
The IC has an internal temperature protection to protect the IC from overheating by
overloads at the VCC pin. When the junction temperature exceeds the thermal shutdown
temperature, the IC will stop switching. As long as the OTP is active, the VCC capacitor will
not be recharged from the HV mains. The OTP circuit is supplied from the HV pin if the
VCC supply voltage is not sufficient. The OTP is a latched protection.

3.7 LATCH pin
The LATCH pin is a general purpose input pin, which can be used to latch both converters
off. The pin sources a bias current Io(LATCH) of 80 μA for the direct connection of a NTC.
When the voltage on this pin is pulled below 1.25 V, switching of both converters will be
immediately stopped. VCC will start cycling between the VTH(UVLO) and Vstartup, without a
restart. Switching off and then switching on the mains input voltage will trigger the fast
latch reset circuit, and reset the latch.
At start-up, the latch pin first has to be charged above 1.35 V, before both converters are
enabled. Charging of the LATCH pin starts at Vstartup.
No internal filtering is present at the LATCH pin. A 10 nF capacitor must be placed
between this pin and IC GROUND pin to prevent false triggering, also when the LATCH
pin function is not used.

Usage of the LATCH pin protection
Latching on application over temperature occurs when the total resistance value of the
NTC and its series resistor drops below the following:
V prot ( LATCH )
1.25V
= -------------- = 15.6kΩ
R OTP = ------------------------------80μA
I O ( LATCH )
The opto-coupler triggers the latch if the driven opto transistor conducts more than 80 μA.
3.8 Fast latch reset
Switching off and then switching on the mains input voltage, can reset the latched
protection. After the mains input is switched off, the voltage at the VINSENSE pin will drop
below VFLR (0.75 V). This will trigger the fast latch reset circuit, but will not reset the
latched protection. After the mains input is switched on, the voltage at the VINSENSE pin
will rise again, and when the level has passed 0.85 V, the latch will be reset. The system
will restart again when the VCC pin is charged to Vstartup. See step 4 of Section 3.2
4. PFC description and calculation
The PFC operates in Quasi Resonant (QR) mode or Discontinuous Conduction mode
(DCM) with valley detection to reduce the MOSFET switch-on losses. The maximum
switching frequency of the PFC is limited to 125 kHz to reduce the switching losses. One
or more valleys are skipped, when necessary, to keep the frequency below 125 kHz.

Integrated PFC and flyback controller
The PFC of the TEA1750 is designed as a boost converter with a fixed output voltage.
The advantage of such a fixed boost, is that the flyback transformer can be designed to a
high input voltage with limited voltage variation. This makes the design easier as the
losses in the flyback transformer are smaller. Dealing with the losses in the flyback
transformer can be the most challenging part of a high power flyback design.
Another advantage of the fixed output voltage PFC is the possibility to use a smaller bulk
elcap value or to have a significant longer hold-up time.
In the TEA1750 system, the PFC is always active. At low mains the PFC is switched on
first. The flyback is switched on after the boost elcap is charged to a level of approximately
265 V (DC). At high mains input voltage, the PFC and flyback will start at the same time,
since Vac x ÷2 is already higher than 265 V (DC) when the mains is switched on.
At low output loads, the PFC is set into Burst mode. At no-load, one burst sequence can
be seen every few seconds; therefore the active PFC has no significant contribution to the
no-load standby power. In Burst mode the output voltage of the PFC will cycle between
approximately 295 V (DC) and 345 V (DC), depending on the setting of the nominal PFC
output voltage. At a high mains input voltage and low loads, the internal IC logic is also set
in Burst mode. This is not noticeable because the lower level of the Burst mode window
will never be reached in this case.
4.1 PFC output power and voltage control
The PFC of the TEA1750 is on-time controlled, therefore it is not necessary to measure
the mains phase angle. The on-time is kept constant during the half sine wave to obtain a
good power factor (PF), and compliance with class-D Mains Harmonics Reduction (MHR)
according to Ref. 2.
The PFC output voltage is controlled through the VOSENSE pin. At the VOSENSE pin
there is a trans-conductance error amplifier with a reference voltage of 2.5 V. The error at
the VOSENSE pin is converted with 80 μA / V into a current at the PFCCOMP pin. The
voltage at the PFCCOMP pin, in combination with the voltage at the VINSENSE pin,
determines the PFC on-time.

PFC on-time control
To stabilize the PFC control loop, a network with one resistor and two capacitors at the
PFCCOMP pin is used. The mathematical equation for the transfer function of a boost
converter contains the square of the mains input voltage. In a typical application this will
result in a low regulation bandwidth for low mains input voltages and a high regulation
bandwidth at high input voltage, while at high mains input voltages it can be difficult to
meet the MHR requirements. The TEA1750 uses the mains input voltage measured
through the VINSENSE pin to compensate the control loop gain as function of the mains
input voltage. As a result the gain will be constant over the entire mains input voltage
range.
The voltage at the VINSENSE pin must be an average DC value, representing the mains
input voltage. The system works optimal with a time constant of approximately 150 ms at
the VINSENSE pin.
4.1.1 Setting the PFC output voltage
The PFC output voltage is set with a resistor divider between the PFC output voltage and
the VOSENSE pin. In PFC Normal mode, the PFC output voltage is regulated so that the
voltage on the VOSENSE pin is equal to Vreg(VOSENSE) = 2.5 V.

PFC output voltage setting
For low no-load input power two resistors of 4.7 MΩ (1%) can be used between the bulk
elcap and the VOSENSE pin.
The resistor R7 (1%) between the VOSENSE pin and ground can be calculated with
equation:
( R5 + R6 ) × V reg ( VOSENSE )
R7 = -----------------------------------------------------------------( Vo PFC – V reg ( VOSENSE ) )
Suppose the regulated PFC output voltage is 382 V, then:
( 4.7MΩ + 4.7MΩ ) × 2.5V
R7 = ---------------------------------------------------------------- = 62kΩ ( 1% )
( 382V – 2.5V )
The function of the capacitor C4 at the VOSENSE pin, is to filter noise and to prevent false
triggering of the protections, due to MOSFET switching noise, mains surge events or ESD
events. False triggering of the Vovp(VOSENSE) protection can cause audible noise and
disturbance of the AC mains input current. False triggering of the Vth(ol)(VOSENSE)
protection will cause a safe restart cycle. A time constant of 500 ns to 1 ms, at the
VOSENSE pin should be sufficient, which results in a value of 10 nF for capacitor C4.
It is advised to place R7 and C4 as close as possible to the IC between the VOSENSE pin
and the IC ground pin.
4.2 PFC Burst mode
At low output loads and no-load the PFC operates in Burst mode. The flyback is
determining the power level where the PFC goes into Burst mode. With the a correct
setting of the flyback current sense resistor value, the PFC is set into Burst mode at
approximately 15 % of the maximum flyback output power. See also Section 5.1. In Burst
mode, the output voltage of the PFC is cycling in a window with an upper and lower
voltage level. The upper and lower level is determined by the setting of the external
voltage divider at the VOSENSE pin in combination with the internal levels.

Integrated PFC and flyback controller
During normal operation, the output voltage of the PFC is regulated so that the voltage
Vreg(VOSENSE) at the VOSENSE pin, remains at 2.5 V. When the PFC is set into Burst
mode, the following sequence is used:
1. The PFC is switched off.
2. The voltage on the bulk elcap will drop until the voltage at the VOSENSE pin reaches
the Vburst(L) level of 1.92 V.
3. At the Vburst(L) level the PFC is switched on again and the bulk elcap is charged until
the voltage at the VOSENSE pin reaches the Vburst(H) level of 2.24 V.
4. At the Vburst(H) level the PFC is switched off again.
As long as the Burst mode is active, the PFC will continue to cycle between steps 2 and 4
in Section 4.2.
At the transition from PFC Burst mode to PFC Normal mode, the PFC is switched on
again and the bulk elcap is charged until the voltage at the VOSENSE pin reaches the
Vreg(VOSENSE) level of 2.5 V.
To prevent audible noise due to starting and stopping of the PFC in Burst mode, the PFC
logic is controlling a soft start at the Vburst(L) level and a soft stop at the Vburst(H) level.

4.2.1 Calculation of the PFC soft start and stop components
The soft start and stop are implemented through the RC network at the PFCSENSE pin.
Rss1 must have a minimum value of 12 kΩ as specified. This to ensure that the voltage
Vstart(soft)PFC of 0.5 V is reached to enable start-up of the PFC. See Section 3.1 for start-up
description.
The total soft start or soft stop time is equal to: t softstart = 3Rss1 ⋅ Css1
It is advised to keep the soft start time of the PFC smaller than the soft start time of the
flyback to ensure that the PFC starts before the flyback at initial start-up. It is also advised
that the soft start time is kept within a range of 2 ms to 5 ms.
With C8 = 100 nF and R11 = 12 kW, the total soft start time will be 3.6 ms.

4.3 PFC demagnetizing and valley detection
The PFC MOSFET is switched on again after the transformer is demagnetized. The
internal IC circuit connected to the PFCAUX pin detects the end of the secondary stroke.
It also detects the voltage at the drain of the PFC MOSFET. The next stroke is started
when the voltage at the drain of the PFC MOSFET is at its minimum (valley switching) in
order to reduce switching losses and electromagnetic interference (EMI).
The maximum switching frequency of the PFC is limited to 125 kHz to reduce the
switching losses. One or more valleys are skipped, when necessary, to keep the
frequency below 125 kHz.
If no demagnetization signal is detected on the PFCAUX pin, the controller generates a
Zero Current Signal (ZCS), 50 ms after the start of the last PFCDRIVER signal.
If no valley signal is detected on the PFCAUX pin, the controller generates an internal
valley signal 4 ms after demagnetization was detected.
See Figure 12 for applications with high transformer ringing frequencies (after the
secondary stroke), the PFCAUX pin should be connected via a capacitor and a resistor to
the auxiliary winding to prevent incorrect skipping of valleys. A diode with a parallel
resistor 1 MΩ must then be placed from the PFCAUX pin to ground.

4.3.1 Design of the PFCAUX winding and circuit
To guarantee valley detection at low ringing amplitudes, the voltage at the PFCAUX pin
should be set as high as possible, taking into account its absolute maximum rating of
±25 V.
The number of turns of the PFCAUX winding can be calculated as follows:

Where: VPFCAUX is the absolute maximum rating of the PFCAUX pin, and VLmax is the
maximum voltage across the PFC primary winding. The PFC output voltage at the PFC
OVP level determines the maximum voltage across the PFC primary winding and can be
calculated with equation:
V OVP ( VOSENSE )
2.63V
V Lmax = -------------------------------------- × Vo PFC = -------------- × Vo PFC
2.5V
V reg ( VOSENSE )
When a PFC coil with a higher number of auxiliary turns is used, then a resistor voltage
divider can be placed between the auxiliary winding and pin PFCAUX. The total resistive
value of the divider should be less than 10 kΩ to prevent delay of the valley detection by
parasitic capacitance.
The polarity of the signal at the PFCAUX pin must be reversed compared to the PFC
MOSFET drain signal.
To protect the PFCAUX pin against electrical overstress, for example during lighting surge
events, it is advised to have a 5 kW resistor between the PFC auxiliary winding and this
pin. To prevent incorrect valley switching of the PFC due to external disturbance, the
resistor should be placed close to the IC.
4.4 PFC protections
4.4.1 VOSENSE Over Voltage Protection
At start-up or at the transition from PFC Burst mode to PFC Normal mode, a voltage
overshoot can occur at the boost elcap. This overshoot is caused by the relative slow
response of the PFC control loop. The PFC control loop response must be relatively slow
to guarantee a good power factor and meet the MHR requirements. The Over Voltage
Protection (OVP) at the VOSENSE pin will limit the overshoot. At the moment that the
VOVP(VOSENSE) level of 2.63 V is detected, the PFC MOSFET is switched off immediately,
regardless of the on time setting. The switching of the MOSFET remains blocked until the
voltage at the VOSENSE pin drops below 2.63 V again.
The peak voltage at the boost elcap generated by the PFC due to an overshoot and
limited by the PFC OVP can be calculated with the equation:
V ovp ( VOSENSE )
2.63V
Vo PFC_PEAK = ------------------------------------ ⋅ Vo PFC_NOMINAL = -------------- ⋅ Vo PFC_NOMINAL
2.5V
V reg ( VOSENSE )
4.4.2 VOSENSE open loop and short pin detection
The VOSENSE pin, which is sensing the PFC output voltage, has integrated protection
circuitry to detect an open and short-circuited pin. This pin can also sense if one of the
resistors in the voltage divider is open. Therefore the VOSENSE pin is completely
fail-safe. It is not necessary to add an external OVP circuit for the PFC. An internal current
source will pull the pin down below the Vth(ol)(VOSENSE) detection level of 0.4 V, when the
pin is open.Triggering of Vth(ol)(VOSENSE) will cause a Safe Restart, see Section 3.4. When
the resistor between the VOSENSE pin and ground is open, the OVP will be triggered. In
this case, an internal zener clamp will prevent electrical overstress of the VOSENSE pin.

4.4.3 VINSENSE open pin detection
The VINSENSE pin, which senses the mains input voltage, has an integrated protection
circuit to detect an open pin. An internal current source will pull the pin down below the
Vstop(VINSENSE) level of 0.9 V, when the pin is open. In this case, an internal zener clamp
will prevent electrical overstress of the VINSENSE pin.
4.4.4 OverCurrent Protection (OCP)
An Over Current Protection (OCP) limits the maximum current through the PFC MOSFET
and PFC coil. The current is measured via a current sense resistor in series with the
MOSFET source. The MOSFET will be switched of immediately when the voltage at pin
PFCSENSE exceeds the Vsense(PFC)max level of 0.52 V. The OCP is a switching cycle-byswitching cycle protection.
To avoid false triggering of the PFC OCP by switching of the flyback, it is advised to keep
a margin of 0.1 V into account. False triggering of the VOVP(VOSENSE) protection can
cause disturbance of the AC mains input current. It is also advised that a small capacitor
of 100 pF to 220 pF is placed directly at the PFCSENSE pin to suppress external
disturbance.
The current sense resistor can be calculated as follows:
V sense ( PFC )max – V m arg in
0.52V – 0.1V
R OCP ( PFC ) = ------------------------------------------------------------ = --------------------------------Ip QR ( PFC )max
Ip QR ( PFC )max
Where: IpQR(PFC)max is the maximum PFC peak current at the high load and low mains.
For the PFC operating in Quasi Resonant mode the maximum peak current can be
calculated as follows:
Ip QR ( PFC )max
Po max
2 2 ⋅ --------------- ⋅ 1.1
2 2 ⋅ Pi max ⋅ 1.1
η
= ----------------------------------------- = ----------------------------------------Vac min
Vac min
Where:
• Pomax is the maximum output power of the flyback
• 1.1 is a factor to compensate for the dead time between zero current in the PFC
inductor at the end of the secondary stroke and the detection of the first valley in QR
mode
• η is the expected efficiency of the total converter at maximum output power
• Vacmin is minimum mains input voltage.
5. Flyback description and calculation
The flyback of the TEA1750 is a variable frequency controller that can operate in Quasi
Resonant (QR) or Discontinuous Conduction mode with demagnetization detection and
valley switching.

NXP Semiconductors
Integrated PFC and flyback controller
The setting of the primary peak current controls the output power; the switching frequency
is a result. The primary peak current is set through the voltage at pin FBCTRL and
measured back at the FBSENSE pin with the following relationship:
V sense ( FB ) ≅ 0.75 × V FBCTRL – 1V
The flyback controls the operational mode of the PFC. At low output powers, when the
primary peak current, Ip ≤ 0.25 × Ip_max , the PFC is set in Burst mode.
Demagnetization of the flyback transformer is detected through the FBAUX pin,
connected to the auxilary winding. The valley is detected through pin HV, which can be
connected to the MOSFET drain or to the center tap of the primary winding.
The flyback has an accurate Over Voltage Protection (OVP) circuit. The overvoltage is
measured, through the FBAUX pin. Both controllers will be switched off in a latched
protection when an overvoltage is detected.
5.1 Flyback output power control
An important aspect of the TEA1750 flyback system is, that the setting of the primary peak
current controls the output power. The switching frequency is a result of external
application parameters and internal IC parameters.
External application parameters are the transformer turns ratio, the primary inductance,
the drain source capacitance, the input voltage, the output voltage and the feedback
signal from the control loop. Internal IC parameters are the oscillator setting, the setting of
the peak current and the detection of demagnetization and valley.
The output power of flyback can be described with the equation:
1
2
Po = --- ⋅ Lp ⋅ Ip ⋅ fs ⋅ η
2
At initial start-up, the flyback will always start at the maximum output power. From
maximum to minimum output power, the flyback will go through the three operation modes
as shown in Figure 12.

Fig 12. Operation modes flyback
At maximum output power, limited by the flyback current sense resistor, the flyback
operates in Quasi Resonant (QR) mode. The next primary switching cycle starts at
detection of the first valley.
By reducing the peak current, the output power is reduced and as a result the switching
frequency goes up. When the maximum flyback switching frequency is reached and the
output power still has to be reduced, the flyback goes from QR into Discontinuous mode
(DCM) with valley switching.
In DCM the output power is reduced by further reduction of the peak current and at the
same time skipping of one or more valleys. In this mode, the switching frequency is kept
constant. The exact switching frequency however, depends on the detection of the valley
but will never be higher as the maximum frequency.
The minimum flyback peak current: At this point the flyback enters the Frequency
Reduction mode and the PFC is set in Burst mode. In the Frequency Reduction mode the
peak current is kept constant. Increasing the off time reduces the output power.
It is advised to place a 10 nF noise filter capacitor C15 (Figure 1) as close as possible to
the FBTRL pin to avoid disturbance of the flyback by switching of the PFC MOSFET.

start-up description.
The total soft start or soft stop time is equal to: t softstart = 3Rss2 ⋅ Css2 . It is advisable to
make the soft start time for the flyback larger than the soft start time of the PFC, to make
sure that the PFC starts before the flyback at initial start-up. It is also advisable to keep the
soft start time in a range of 5 ms to 10 ms.
With C10 = 220 nF and R16 = 12 kΩ (see Figure 1) the total soft start time will be 8 ms.
5.2 Flyback control of PFC Burst mode
The flyback controls the Operation mode of the PFC. At low output powers, when the
primary peak current Ip ≤ 0.25 × Ip_max , the PFC is set in Burst mode. This is the same
point as when the flyback enters the Frequency Reduction mode, see Figure 12 and
Section 4.1.

On the transition from PFC Normal mode to Burst mode and from Burst mode to Normal
mode is a hysteresis of 60 mV Vhys(FBCTRL) on VFBCTRL. This provides the possibility of
smooth transitions for all applications. It is advised to place the 10 nF noise filter capacitor
C15 (see Figure 1) as close as possible to the FBTRL pin in order to guarantee a smooth
transition from PFC burst to PFC Normal mode and to avoid audible noise in flyback
transformer.
5.3 Flyback protections
5.3.1 Short circuit on the FBCTRL pin
If the pin is shorted to ground, switching of the flyback controller is blocked. This situation
is equal to the minimum, or no output, power situation.
5.3.2 Open FBCTRL pin
As shown in Figure 15. the FBCTRL pin is connected to an internal voltage source of
3.5 V via an internal resistor of 3 kΩ. As soon as the voltage on pin FBCTRL is above
2.5 V, this connection is disabled and the FBCTRL pin is biased with an internal 30 μA
current source. When the voltage on the FBCTRL pin rises above Vto(FBCTRL) of 4.5 V a
fault is assumed. Switching of the flyback (and also the PFC) is blocked and the controller
will enter the Safe Restart mode.

A time-out function can be realized to protect for an output overload short or for an open
control loop situation, see Figure 15. This can be done by placing a resistor in series with
a capacitor between the FBCTRL pin and ground. See Figure 15. Above 2.5 V the switch
in series with the resistor of 3 kΩ is opened and pin FBCTRL and thus the RC
combination is biased with a 30 μA current-source. When the voltage on FBCTRL pin
rises above 4.5 V, switching of the flyback (and also the PFC) is blocked and the controller
will enter the Safe Restart mode. The capacitor is used to set the time to reach 4.5 V at
the FBCTRL pin. In Safe Restart mode an internal switch pulls the FBCTRL pin down to
discharge the timing capacitor. The resistor is necessary to separate the relative large
time-out capacitor from the control loop response. It is advised to use a resistor of at least
30 kΩ. The resistor however, will also influence the charge time of the capacitor.

The IC has an internal Over Voltage Protection (OVP) circuit, which will switch off both
controllers when an overvoltage is detected at the output of the flyback, by a latched
protection. The IC can detect an overvoltage at a secondary winding of the flyback by
measuring the voltage at the auxiliary winding during the secondary stroke. A series
resistor between the auxiliary winding and the FBAUX pin converts this voltage to a
current on the FBAUX pin.

At a current Iovp(FBAUX) of 300 μA into the FBAUX pin, the IC detects an overvoltage. An
internal integrator filters noise and voltage spikes. The output of the integrator is used as
an input for an up-down counter. The counter has been added as an extra filter to prevent
false OVP detection, which might occur during ESD or lightning events.
If the integrator detects an overvoltage then the counter increases its value by one. If
another overvoltage is detected during the next switching cycle then the counter increases
its value by one again. If no overvoltage is detected during the next switching cycle, then
the counter will subtract its value by two (the minimum value is 0). If the value reaches 8,
the IC assumes a true overvoltage, and activates the latched protection. Both converters
will be switched off immediately and VCC will start cycling between the VTH(UVLO) and
VSTARTUP, without a restart.
Switching off and then switching on the mains input voltage, will trigger the fast latch reset
circuit, and reset the latch.
The OVP level can be set by the resistor ROVP:

Where:
• Ns is the number of turns on the secondary winding
• Naux is the number of turns on the auxiliary winding of the flyback transformer
• Vclamp(FBAUX) is the positive clamp-voltage of the FBAUX pin.
For the calculation of the VoOVP level the tolerances on Iovp(FBAUX) have to be taken into
account, this to avoid triggering of the OVP during normal operation.
