3 Schematic
Figure 3 - 70W TOP249Y Power Supply Schematic
3.1 Description
The EP11 is a low-cost flyback switching power supply using the TOP249Y integrated
circuit from the TOPSwitch-GX family. The circuit shown in Figure 3 details a 19 V,
70 W supply that operates from an input range of 85 to 265 VAC, suitable for applications
requiring either an open frame supply or an enclosed adapter.
AC power is rectified and filtered by BR1 and C7 to create the high voltage DC bus
applied to the primary winding of transformer (T1). Only a 150µF capacitor is required
(2.1 µF/W) due to the wider DCMAX of TOPSwitch-GX and the line feed forward function
provided by the LINE SENSE Pin. The other side of the primary is driven by the
integrated high-voltage MOSFET within the TOP249Y. Diodes, D4 and D2 clamp the
DRAIN voltage spike caused by transformer leakage inductance to a safe value below
the 700 V maximum. Capacitor C6 is added in parallel with D2 to reduce zener clamp
dissipation.
The TOPSwitch-GX family provides new operating features and extended specifications.
The EP11 power supply is designed using several of these features. Resistors R14 and
R15 connected to the LINE SENSE pin (L) of TOPSwitch-GX (U1) are used to implement

an under-voltage detect (100V), over-voltage shutdown (450V) and line feed forward with
DCMAX reduction features. Two resistors are used in series to allow low cost ¼ W
resistors which have a lower voltage rating.
The under-voltage detect ensures that the output is glitch free at start-up and shutdown.
With the combined value of R14 and R15 as shown, the power supply does not start
operating until the DC rail voltage reaches 100 VDC. On removal of the AC input the UV
sense prevents the output glitching as C7 discharges turning off the TOPSwitch-GX when
output regulation is lost or when the input voltage falls to 40 V, whichever occurs first.
The over-voltage feature shuts down the supply if the rectified input voltage exceeds
approximately 450V. If exceeded this protects the TOPSwitch-GX from excessive drain
voltages providing an extended AC surge withstand to 700 VDC (BVDSS rating), ideal for
countries with poor power quality.
Finally the line feed forward feature reduces output line frequency ripple by modulating
the control loop with the line frequency ripple on the DC rail, ideal when using a relatively
small input capacitor.
Resistors R5, R6, and R12 connect to the EXTERNAL CURRENT LIMIT pin (X) and are
used to externally program the current limit level of the device to just above the operating
peak current at full load and low line. This allows use of a smaller transformer core and /
or higher transformer primary inductance for a given output power. Reducing transformer
size and TOPSwitch-GX power dissipation, while at the same time avoiding transformer
core saturation during start-up or output load transient. This resistor network also
reduces the current limit with increasing line voltage. This limits the maximum available
power during overload conditions at high line (see Figure 10) removing the need for any
protection circuitry on the secondary.
The secondary windings are rectified and filtered by D1, D5, C1, and create the 19 V
output voltage. Two windings are used, with separate dual rectifiers (for equal current
sharing), to lower winding losses and maximise efficiency. Inductor L1 provided
additional filtering in conjunction with C4 and C14.
The 19 V output is directly sensed by the series combination of R4 and R13 that form a
divider with R10. These resistors together with the reference node voltage of U3 set the
output voltage. Other output voltages are also possible by adjusting the transformer turns
ratios and value of R4 and R13. Resistor R2 sets the overall DC gain of the control loop
and R7 provides bias for voltage reference U3. Capacitor C11 is the main compensation
capacitor and together with R11, C9, R8 and C10 ensure stability of the control loop.
The TOPSwitch-GX control circuit allows the switching frequency to reduce at light or
zero load conditions, eliminating the need for a pre-load resistor to control the output

voltage at zero load. By lowering the switching frequency, no-load power consumption is
also greatly reduced.
The bias winding is rectified and filtered by D3, R3 and C8 to create a bias voltage to
power the TOP249Y. A 1µF capacitor is required for C8 to maintain sufficient voltage
during zero to full load transients. Resistor R8 provides leakage inductance filtering to
prevent peak charging. A ceramic capacitor is shown for C8 however for lower cost an
electrolytic type can be used.
Common mode choke L3 and capacitor C12 attenuate common-mode emission currents
caused by high-voltage switching waveforms on the drain side of the primary winding and
the primary to secondary capacitance. Inductor L2 in conjunction with C5, C15 and C16
attenuate differential-mode emission currents caused by the fundamental and harmonics
of the primary current waveform.
Capacitor C16 provides a high frequency bypass of C7 which shortens the loop formed
by these high frequencies passing through the transformer primary and thus reduces
both the differential and common mode conducted noise.
Frequency jitter is employed by the TOPSwitch-GX family to reduce the conducted noise
as measured for both the CISPR and EN standards (see section 12)
Capacitor C17 filters internal MOSFET gate-drive charge current spikes on the
CONTROL pin and together with R11 and C11 determines the auto-restart frequency.

9 Thermal Performance
The EP11 printed circuit board was designed to allow testing within the enclosure of a
commercial laptop computer adapter. This adapter has an enclosure made of plastic and
incorporates copper heat spreaders with a plastic shroud to insulate them from the board
components. See Figure 12.
Thermal testing was done in still air. This was achieved by placing the board into a
sealed cardboard box which is 11” long, 8.5” wide and 7” high. The adapter was placed
on a 6” × 4” piece of single sided copper clad board (copper side down) which was taped
to the bottom center of the box. The box had small openings for the thermal couple wires
and the input and output cables. It was taped shut and placed in an environmental
chamber. The measurements were made by attaching “T” type thermocouples to the
following components using a thermally conductive glue (Loctite 384) with the wires
dressed out of the enclosure in alignment with the output cable.

The tests were run at an input line voltage of 90 Volts (60Hz). The load was adjusted to
provide a nominal output power at the end of a cable of first 60 Watts, then 65 Watts, 70
Watts, and finally 72.5 Watts. Power at the power supply output connector (J2) was
approximately; 61.2 Watts, 66.2 Watts, 70.6 Watts and 73.8 Watts respectively.
The maximum case surface temperature was < 75°C in a 40°C ambient, 90 VAC, 70W
(see figure 14 for thermal image)

Figure 12 - Schematic cross-section of enclosure
Note: The diagram above shows an exploded view. In actual construction,
there are no air gaps between the board, copper heat spreader and case.
The main path for heat dissipation is via conduction therefore air gaps,
even small, greatly increase the thermal impedance from the heatsinks to
ambient.
Air gaps will reduce power capability and increase the
temperature of components.

The results below show very good ripple results (<0.25%) even with a small input
capacitor (2.1 uF/W). This is due to the line feed forward function implemented via the L
pin, R14 and R15.
The waveforms were captured using a Yokogawa oscilloscope. Trace is VOUT_AC, the
output voltage AC coupled into the ‘scope input at 20 mV per division. Timebase is

EPR-00011 - 70 W Adapter
13 Appendix A - Thermal considerations:
The TOPSwitch-GX family significantly extends the power capability over the
TOPSwitch-II family of devices. The higher power capability is a result of a lower
internal high voltage MOSFET RDS(ON) over that of any previous TOPSwitch-II. This lower
RDS(ON) enables compact high power adapters such as the EP11.
The output powers of higher power adapter supplies like EP11 are all thermally limited to
some degree. One of the important design considerations is often compact size which
together with efficiency limitations combine to limit the maximum continuous power of the
design. This adapter is no exception. The maximum continuous power is rated at 70
Watts in an enclosure at a 40 °C ambient temperature (see Figure 13). This rating is
very “packaging” dependent.
The power dissipated by the high voltage MOSFET within the TOP249Y is a significant
source of heat. Together with the heat generated in the transformer, output diodes, input
rectifier and filter, as well as the output filter must be managed to keep the maximum
component temperatures within limits. Layout and heat sinking and the complete
package must be designed to manage the heat generated by the board components.
Adapters are generally completely enclosed external power sources that provide little or
no ventilation for the internal converter components. They are also generally small in
size which creates high power densities and necessitates very tight packaging of
components. The first and most fundamental performance element to optimise for a
successful high power adapter is its efficiency. Other key considerations include; heat
sink design, “hot spots”, and maximum component temperatures.

13.1 Efficiency:
Items to consider for maximising efficiency:
• Transformer:
- Minimise leakage inductance and conduction losses
- Use highest possible duty factor and operate in continuous mode for reduced
peak currents (the copper window of the transformer bobbin may limit this)
• Output Diodes:
- Use low forward drop, higher current rated diodes
- Use Schottky-barrier diodes when possible
- Parallel diodes to reduce forward drop. Take care to make sure that paralleled
diodes share current equally (the EP11 uses dual secondary windings and a
common heat sink to achieve this).
- Allow diodes to run as hot as possible (consistent with maximum board
temperature and component life constraints). This will minimize the forward
drop.
• Power Switch (TOPSwitch-GX):
- Use a lower RDS(ON) part (the TOP249 used in the EP11 is capable of over
250 Watts in an open frame design)
- Use the highest possible maximum operating duty cycle to reduce conduction
losses (this must be balanced against increased leakage and transformer
losses).
• Line Filter:
- Use as few turns as possible for inductor windings
- Increase capacitor value (rather than inductor value) where practical, to
minimize differential choke size down.
13.2 Heat Sinking:
Heat sinking power devices such as the TOPSwitch-GX, input diodes, and output diodes
will be more critical in an adapter application than in open frame designs. This is largely
because all of the generated heat must be CONDUCTED through the enclosure walls.
The heat sinks used in EP11 are made of copper. Copper has high thermal conductivity
(~3.94 W/cm oC), but it is heavy. Aluminum may be used instead. It is lighter, but it has
somewhat lower thermal conductivity (~2.18 W/cm oC). The net thermal conductivity
from the heat generating components to the outside air of the adapter’s enclosure
together with the overall efficiency of the supply determines the maximum continuous
power output for a given environment.

13.3 Heat Spreading and Enclosure Surface Temperature:
The enclosures of adapters are generally limited to an absolute maximum external
surface temperature (defined by safety approval agencies such as U.L.). For higher
power adapters, it is often necessary to use an internal heat spreader to evenly
distribute the internally generated heat across the inside of the enclosure’s outside walls.
This will help eliminate “hot spots”. The “heat spreader” is generally nothing more than
an additional foil wrap (or sheets of copper or aluminum) between the converter and the
outside enclosure walls. The caveat is that these heat spreaders must generally be
electrically insulated from the heat sinks to provide safety isolation. This electrical
insulation invariably contributes significant thermal impedance.
Even with heat
spreaders, care must be taken to avoid crowding the heat generating components
together more than is necessary.
13.4 Component Temperature:
The maximum operating temperature of the power devices within the converter may be
limited by various considerations depending on the type of component.
-
TOPSwitch-GX :
The TOPSwitch-GX is thermally protected by its internal thermal shutdown
feature. This feature prohibits the device from operation when the internal junction
o
temperature (TJ ) exceeds 140 C (typ.). This junction temperature will be higher
than the package tab temperature (TC) depending on the amount of power being
dissipated. It is good design practice to keep this junction temperature below
o
120 C to guarantee continuous operation with adequate margin. For the EP11,
thermal shutdown occurs at a TOP249 tab temperature (TC) of approximately
o
120 C (depending somewhat on the output power level). At 65 Watts output, the
EP11’s TOP249 tab stabilises at TC=103.6 oC in an ambient of approximately 40oC
(while in the enclosure with a 90VAC input). At 70Watts this tab temperature
stabilises at TC=111.9 oC. Care must be taken with any package design to make
sure that adequate margin remains at the maximum output power and ambient
temperature. One way to test this is to stabilise the supply at maximum power in
the desired environment and subsequently increase either the power or the
ambient temperature in small increments (waiting for the internal temperatures to
stabilise each time) until shutdown occurs. This allows the designer to determine
how much margin there is for thermal shutdown.

Input and Output Diodes:
For the power diodes the maximum junction temperature is generally 150oC.
Depending on the required product life expectancy and the maximum lead
temperature of the PC board material chosen, the actual allowed maximum
junction temperature (TJ ) may be significantly less. Also the junction temperature
(TJ ) will be significantly higher than the tab temperature (TC) and must be
computed from the measured tab temperature and the estimated power
dissipation in the device using the thermal impedance junction to case (θJC) of the
device given in its data sheet.
-
Magnetic Components:
If the transformer and the other magnetic components use 130 oC magnet wire in
their construction, then the maximum hot spot temperature is limited to 105 oC.
Higher operating temperatures are possible with higher temperature rated wire.
o
Generally, however, the ferrite core temperatures should be limited to near 100 C
to maintain the saturation flux density.
13.5 Conclusion:
Careful design and rigorous testing are required to ensure that a design will perform
adequately under high load and high temperature conditions.
