Current-Mode PWM Controllers with an Error
Amplifier for Isolated/Nonisolated Power Supplies
The MAX5052 has an internal bootstrap UVLO with
large hysteresis that requires a minimum voltage of
23.6V for startup. The MAX5053 does not have the
internal bootstrap UVLO and can be biased directly
from a minimum voltage of 10.8V.
The 262kHz switching frequency is internally trimmed to
±12% accuracy; this allows the optimization of the
magnetic and filter components resulting in compact,
cost-effective power supplies. The MAX5052A/
MAX5053A are offered with a 50% maximum duty-cycle
limit. The MAX5052B/MAX5053B are offered with a 75%
maximum duty-cycle limit. These devices are available
in 8-pin µMAX packages and operate over the -40°C to
+85°C temperature range.

MAX5052/MAX5053
General Description
The MAX5052/MAX5053 current-mode PWM controllers
contain all the control circuitry required for the design of
wide-input-voltage isolated and nonisolated power
supplies. The MAX5052 is well suited for universal input
(rectified 85VAC to 265VAC) or telecom (-36VDC to
-72VDC) power supplies. The MAX5053 is well suited for
low-input-voltage (10.8VDC to 24VDC) power supplies.
The MAX5052/MAX5053 contain an internal error amplifier that regulates the tertiary winding output voltage.
This implements a primary-side regulated, isolated
power supply, eliminating the need for an optocoupler.
An input undervoltage lockout (UVLO) is provided for
programming the input-supply start voltage and to
ensure proper operation during brownout conditions.
The input-supply start voltage is externally programmable with a voltage-divider. To shutdown the device, the
UVLO pin is pulled low. Internal digital soft-start
reduces output voltage overshoot. The internal thermal
shutdown circuit protects the device in the event the
junction temperature exceeds +130°C.

External N-Channel MOSFET Gate Connection
Detailed Description
The MAX5052/MAX5053 are current-mode PWM controllers that have been specifically designed for use in
isolated and nonisolated power-supply applications. A
bootstrap UVLO with a large hysteresis (11.9V), very
low startup current, and low operating current result in
efficient universal-input power supplies. In addition to
the internal bootstrap UVLO, these devices also offer
programmable input startup voltage programmed
through the UVLO/EN pin. This feature is useful in preventing the power supply from entering a brownout
condition, in case the input voltage drops below its
minimum value. This is important since switching power
6
supplies increases their input supply current as the
input voltage drops in order to keep the output power
constant. The MAX5052 is well suited for universal input
(rectified 85VAC to 265VAC) or telecom (-36VDC to
-72VDC) power supplies. The MAX5053 is well suited for
low-input-voltage (10.8VDC to 24VDC) power supplies.
Power supplies designed with the MAX5052 use a
high-value startup resistor, R1, that charges a reservoir
capacitor, C1 (see Figure 1). During this initial period,
while the voltage is less than the internal bootstrap
UVLO threshold, the device typically consumes only
45µA of quiescent current. This low startup current and
the large bootstrap UVLO hysteresis helps to minimize

the power dissipation across R1 even at the high end of
the universal AC input voltage (265VAC).
The MAX5052/MAX5053 include a cycle-by-cycle current limit that turns off the gate drive to the external
MOSFET during an overcurrent condition. When using
the MAX5052 in the bootstrapped mode (if the powersupply output is shorted), the tertiary winding voltage
drops below the 10V threshold causing the UVLO to
turn off the gate drive to the external power MOSFET.
This reinitiates a startup sequence with soft-start.
MAX5052/MAX5053
Undervoltage Lockout
The MAX5052/MAX5053 have an input voltage
UVLO/EN pin. The threshold for this UVLO is 1.28V.
Before any operation can commence, the voltage on
this pin has to exceed 1.28V. The UVLO circuit keeps
the CPWM comparator, ILIM comparator, oscillator,
and output driver shut down to reduce current consumption (see the Functional Diagram).
Use this UVLO function to program the input-supply
start voltage. For example, a reasonable start voltage
for a 36V to 72V telecom range might be set at 34V.
Calculate the divider resistor values, R2 and R3 (see
Figure 1) by using the following formulas:
R3 ≅
where IUVLO is the UVLO/EN pin input current (50nA),
and VULR2 is the UVLO/EN wake-up threshold.
VULR2 × VIN
500 × IUVLO ( VIN − VULR2 )
The value of R3 is calculated to minimize the voltagedrop error across R2 as a result of the input bias current of the UVLO/EN pin. VULR2 = 1.28V, IUVLO = 50nA
MAX5052 Bootstrap
Undervoltage Lockout
In addition to the externally programmable UVLO function offered in both the MAX5052 and MAX5053, the
MAX5052 has an additional internal bootstrap UVLO
that is very useful when designing high-voltage power
supplies (see the Functional Diagram). This allows the
device to bootstrap itself during initial power-up. The
MAX5052 attempts to start when VIN exceeds the bootstrap UVLO threshold of 21.6V.
During startup, the UVLO circuit keeps the CPWM comparator, ILIM comparator, oscillator, and output driver
shut down to reduce current consumption. Once VIN
reaches 21.6V, the UVLO circuit turns on both the CPWM
and ILIM comparators, as well as the oscillator, and
allows the output driver to switch. If VIN drops below
9.7V, the UVLO circuit will shut down the CPWM comparator, ILIM comparator, oscillator, and output driver
returning the MAX5052/MAX5053 to the startup mode.
MAX5052 Startup Operation
Normally VIN is derived from a tertiary winding of the
transformer. However, at startup there is no energy
delivered through the transformer, hence, a special
bootstrap sequence is required. Figure 2 shows the
voltages on VIN and VCC during startup. Initially, both
VIN and VCC are 0V. After the line voltage is applied,
C1 charges through the startup resistor, R1, to an intermediate voltage. At this point, the internal regulator
begins charging C2 (see Figure 1). The MAX5052 uses
only 45µA of the current supplied by R1, and the
remaining input current charges C1 and C2. The charging of C2 stops when the VCC voltage reaches approximately 9.5V, while the voltage across C1 continues
rising until it reaches the wake-up level of 21.6V. Once
V IN exceeds the bootstrap UVLO threshold, NDRV
begins switching the MOSFET and transfers energy to
the secondary and tertiary outputs. If the voltage on the
tertiary output builds to higher than 9.9V (the bootstrap
UVLO lower threshold), then startup has been accomplished and sustained operation commences.

Figure 2. VIN and VCC During Startup when Using the
MAX5052 in Bootstrapped Mode (Figure 1)
If VIN drops below 9.9V before startup is complete, the
device goes back to low-current UVLO. In this case,
increase the value of C1 in order to store enough energy
to allow for the voltage at tertiary winding to build up.
Startup Time Considerations For Power
Supplies Using the MAX5052
The VIN bypass capacitor, C1, supplies current immediately after wake up (see Figure 1). The size of C1 and
the connection configuration of the tertiary winding
determine the number of cycles available for startup.
Large values of C1 increase the startup time but also
supply gate charge for more cycles during initial startup. If the value of C1 is too small, VIN drops below 9.9V
because NDRV does not have enough time to switch
and build up sufficient voltage across the tertiary output
which powers the device. The device goes back into
UVLO and does not start. Use a low-leakage capacitor
for C1 and C2.
As a rule of thumb, offline power supplies keep typical
startup times to less than 500ms even in low-line conditions (85VAC input for universal offline or 36VDC for
telecom applications). Size the startup resistor, R1, to
supply both the maximum startup bias of the device
(90µA) and the charging current for C1 and C2. The
bypass capacitor, C2, must charge to 9.5V and C1 to
24V, all within the desired time period of 500ms.
Because of the internal 60ms soft-start time of the
MAX5052, C1 must store enough charge to deliver current to the device for at least this much time. To calculate the approximate amount of capacitance required,
use the following formula:
Ig = Qgtot × fSW
C1 =
8
where IIN is the MAX5052’s internal supply current after
startup (1.4mA), Qgtot is the total gate charge for Q1,
fSW is the MAX5052’s switching frequency (262kHz),
Vhyst is the bootstrap UVLO hysteresis (12V) and tss is
the internal soft-start time (60ms).
For example:
Ig = (8nC) (262kHz) ≅ 2.1mA
(IIN + Ig ) (tSS )
Vhyst
(1.4mA + 2.1mA) (60ms) = 17.5µF
(12V)
choose 15µF standard value.
Assuming C1 > C2, calculate the value of R1 as follows:
V
× C1
IC1 = SUVR
(500ms)
R1 =
VIN(MIN) − VSUVR
IC1 + ISTART
where VIN(MIN) is the minimum input supply voltage for
the application (36V for telecom), VSUVR is the bootstrap UVLO wake-up level (23.6V max.), ISTART is the
VIN supply current at startup (90µA, max).
For example:
IC1 =
R1 =
(24V) (15µF) = 0.72mA
(500ms)
(36V) − (12V) = 29.6kΩ
(0.72mA) + (90µA)
choose 32kΩ standard value.
Choose a higher value for R1 than the one calculated
above if longer startup time can be tolerated in order to
minimize power loss on this resistor.
The above startup method is applicable to a circuit similar to the one shown in Figure 1. In this circuit, the tertiary
winding has the same phase as the output windings.
Thus, the voltage on the tertiary winding at any given
time is proportional to the output voltage and goes
through the same soft-start period as the output voltage.
The minimum discharge voltage of C1 from 22V to 10V
must be greater than the soft-start time of 60ms.
Another method for bootstrapping the power supply is to
have a separate bias winding than the one used for regulating the output voltage and to connect the bias winding so that it is in phase with the MOSFET ON time (see
Figure 3). The amount of capacitance required is much

smaller. However, in this mode, the input voltage range
has to be roughly 2:1. Another consideration is if the bias
winding is in phase with the output, then the power supply hiccups and soft-start under output short-circuit conditions. Whereas, this property is lost if the bias winding
is in phase with the MOSFET ON time.
1V/div
Soft-Start
The MAX5052/MAX5053 soft-start feature allows the load
voltage to ramp up in a controlled manner, eliminating
output voltage overshoot. Soft-start begins after UVLO is
deasserted. The voltage applied to the noninverting
node of the amplifier ramps from 0 to 1.23V in over a
60ms soft-start timeout period. Figure 4 shows the 5V
output of the power-supply circuit in Figure 5 during
startup. Note the staircase increase of the output voltage. This is a result of the digital soft-starting technique
used. Unlike other devices, the MAX5052/MAX5053 reference voltage to the internal amplifier is soft-started;
this method results in superior control of the output voltage under heavy- and light-load conditions.
N-Channel MOSFET Switch Driver
The NDRV pin drives an external N-channel MOSFET.
The NDRV output is supplied by the internal regulator
(VCC), which is internally set to approximately 9.5V. For
the universal input voltage range, the MOSFET used
must be able to withstand the DC level of the high-line
input voltage plus the reflected voltage at the primary of
the transformer. For most offline applications that use the
discontinuous flyback topology, this requires a MOSFET
rated at 600V. NDRV can source/sink in excess of the

yields acceptable conduction and switching losses.
Internal Oscillator
The internal oscillator switches at 1.048MHz and is
divided down to 262kHz by two D flip-flops. The
MAX5052A/MAX5053A invert the Q output of the last D
flip-flop to provide a duty cycle of 50% (Figure 6). The
MAX5052B/MAX5053B perform a logic NAND operation on the Q outputs of both D flip-flops to provide a
duty cycle of 75%.

Internal Error Amplifier
The MAX5052/MAX5053 include an internal error amplifier that can be used to regulate the output voltage in
the case of a nonisolated power supply (see Figure 1)
Calculate the output voltage using the following equation:
R5 

VOUT = 1 +
 VREF

R6 
10
where VREF = 1.23V. The amplifier’s noninverting input
is internally connected to a digital soft-start circuit that
gradually increases the reference voltage during startup and is applied to this pin. This forces the output voltage to come up in an orderly and well-defined manner
under all load conditions.
The error amplifier may also be used to regulate the tertiary winding output which implements a primary-side
regulated, isolated power supply (see Figure 5).
Calculate the output voltage using the following equation:



where NS is the number of secondary turns for VOUT1,
NT is the number of tertiary winding turns, and both VD6
and VD1 are the diode drops at the respective outputs.

Layout Recommendations
All printed circuit board traces carrying switching currents must be kept as short as possible, and the current loops they form must be minimized. The pins of the
µMAX package have been placed to allow easy interfacing to the external MOSFET.
For universal AC input design, all applicable safety regulations must be followed. Offline power supplies may
require UL, VDE, and other similar agency approvals.
These agencies can be contacted for the latest layout
and component rules.
Typically there are two sources of noise emission in a
switching power supply: high di/dt loops and high dv/dt
surfaces. For example, traces that carry the drain current often form high di/dt loops. Similarly, the heatsink
of the MOSFET presents a dv/dt source, thus the surface area of the heatsink must be minimized as much
as possible.
To achieve best performance, a star ground connection
is recommended to avoid ground loops. For example,
the ground returns for the power-line input filter, power
MOSFET switch, and sense resistor should be routed
separately through wide copper traces to meet at a single-system ground connection.
Where IPRI is the peak current in the primary that flows
through the MOSFET.
When the voltage produced by this current (through the
current-sense resistor) exceeds the current-limit comparator threshold, the MOSFET driver (NDRV) quickly
terminates the current ON-cycle, typically within 60ns.
In most cases, a small RC filter is required to filter out
the leading-edge spike on the sense waveform. Set the
corner frequency at a few megahertz.
Applications Information
Primary Regulated, Isolated
Telecom Power Supply
Figure 5 shows a complete design of a dual-output power
supply with a telecom voltage range of 36V to 72V. An
important aspect of this power supply is its primary-side
regulation. This regulation, through the tertiary winding,
also acts as bias winding for the MAX5052.
In the circuit of Figure 5, cross-regulation has been
improved (tertiary and 5V outputs) by using chip inductors, L1 and L2, and R7||R2. R7||R2 presents enough
loading on the tertiary winding output to allow ±5% load
regulation on the 5V output over a load current range
from 150mA to 1.5A.
