Applying FAN6861 to a Flyback Power Supply with Peak
Load Current Profile
The frequency-hopping function reduces electro-magnetic
interference (EMI) of a power supply by spreading the
energy over a wider frequency range. The constant power
limit function minimizes the component stress in abnormal
condition and helps to optimize the power stage. Protection
functions; such as OCP, OLP, OVP, and OTP are fully
integrated into FAN6861, which improves the SMPS
reliability without increasing system cost.
1. Introduction
Highly integrated PWM controller, FAN6861, is optimized
for applications with motor load, such as printers and
scanners, that inherently impose some kind of overload
condition on the power supply during acceleration mode.
The two-level OCP function allows the SMPS to stably
deliver peak power during the motor acceleration without
causing premature shutdown, while protecting the SMPS
from overload condition.
This application note presents design considerations to apply
FAN6861 to a flyback power supply with peak load current
profile. It covers designing the transformer, selecting the
components, and closing the feedback loop. Figure 1 shows
a typical application circuit using FAN6861.
The green-mode and burst-mode functions with a low
operating current (2.2mA maximum in green mode)
maximize the light-load efficiency so that the power supply
can meet stringent standby power regulations.

APPLICATION NOTE
(Design Example) The specifications of the target
system are:
• VLINEMIN =90VRMS VLINEMAX)=264VRMS
• Line frequency (fL) = 60Hz
• Nominal output power (PNO) = 20W (32V/0.625A)
• Peak output power (PPO) = 50W (32V/1.56A)
• Peak load duration (tPO) < 500ms

FAN6861 can be used for this application because
the peak load duration is less than the OCP delay
time of 780ms.
2. Design Considerations
Flyback converters have two operation modes; continuous
conduction mode (CCM) and discontinuous conduction
mode (DCM). CCM and DCM have their own advantages
and disadvantages, respectively. In general, DCM provides
better switching conditions for the rectifier diodes, since the
diodes are operating at zero current just before becoming
reverse biased and the reverse recovery loss is minimized.
The transformer size can be reduced using DCM because
the average energy storage is low compared to CCM.
However, DCM inherently causes high RMS current, which
increases the conduction loss of the MOSFET severely for
low line condition. Thus, especially for applications with
peak load profile, such as printer and scanner; it is typical to
design the converter such that the converter operates in
CCM for low line and peak load condition to maximize
efficiency.
In this section, a design procedure is presented using the
schematic of Figure 1 as a reference. An off line SMPS with
20W/32V nominal output power and 50W/32V peak output
power has been selected as a design example.
[STEP-2] Determine the Input Capacitor (CIN) and the
Input Voltage Range
It is typical to select the input capacitor as 1.5~2μF per watt
of peak input power for universal input range (85-265VRMS)
and 0.7~0.8μF per watt of peak input power for European
input range (195V-265VRMS). With the input capacitor
chosen, the minimum input capacitor voltage at peak load
condition is obtained as:
[STEP-1] Define the System Specifications
Designing a power supply with peak load current profile,
the following specifications should be determined first:
„ Line voltage range (VLINEMIN and VLINEMAX)
VINP MIN = 2 ⋅ (VLINE MIN ) 2 −
„ Line frequency (fL).
PINP ⋅ (1 − DCH )
C IN ⋅ f L
(3)
The minimum input capacitor voltage at nominal load
condition is obtained as:
„ Nominal output power (PNO)
„ Peak output power (PPO) and its duration (tPO)
VINN MIN = 2 ⋅ (VLINE MIN ) 2 −
„ Estimated efficiencies for nominal load (ηN) and peak
load (ηP): The power conversion efficiency must be
estimated to calculate the input powers for each
condition. Typically, the efficiency at peak load
condition is lower than that of nominal load since most
of the components of power supply are selected for
nominal load condition. If no reference data is available,
set ηN = 0.7~0.75 and ηP = 0.65~0.7 for low-voltage
output applications and ηN = 0.8~0.85 and ηP =
0.75~0.8 for high-voltage output applications.

APPLICATION NOTE
As can be seen in Equation (7), the voltage stress across the
MOSFET can be reduced by reducing VRO. However, this
increases the voltage stresses on the rectifier diodes in the
secondary side. Therefore, VRO should be determined by a
trade-off between the voltage stresses of MOSFET and
diode. Because the actual drain voltage rises above the
nominal MOSFET voltage due to the leakage inductance of
the transformer, as shown in Figure 3, it is typical to set VRO
around 70~100V so that VDSNOM is 430~450V for 600V
MOSFET (73~78% of MOSFET voltage rating).
(Design Example) By choosing a 100μF capacitor for
the input capacitor, the minimum input voltages for
peak and nominal load are obtained, respectively, as:

When the MOSFET is turned off, the input voltage (VIN),
together with the output voltage reflected to the primary,

the maximum nominal MOSFET voltage (VDSNOM) are
obtained as:

The transformer primary-side inductance is determined for
the minimum input voltage and peak load condition. With
the DMAX from Step-3, the primary-side inductance (LM) of
the transformer is obtained as

(8)
where fSW is the switching frequency and KRF is the ripple
factor at peak load and minimum input voltage condition, as
shown in Figure 4.
The ripple factor is closely related to the transformer size
and the RMS value of the MOSFET current. Even though
the conduction loss in the MOSFET can be reduced by
reducing the ripple factor, too small a ripple factor forces an
increase in transformer size. From practical point of view, it
is reasonable to set KRF = 0.3~0.6 for the universal input
range and KRF = 0.4~0.8 for the European input range.
Once LM is calculated by determining KRF from Equation
(8), the peak current and RMS current of the MOSFET for
minimum input voltage and peak load condition are
obtained as:

First, calculate the turn ratio (n) between the primary side
and the secondary side from the reflected output voltage
determined in Step-3, as:
(17)
n=
where Ae is the cross-sectional area of the core in mm2, ILIM

0.89V threshold, RCS is current sensing resistor, and BSAT is
the saturation flux density in Tesla.

where NP and NS are the number of turns for primary side
and secondary side, respectively, VO is the output voltage;
and VF is the diode (DO) forward-voltage drop. Then,
determine the proper integer for NS such that the resulting
NP is larger than NPmin obtained from Equation (17).
The pulse-by-pulse current limit level is included in
Equation (17) because the inductor current reaches the
pulse-by-pulse current limit level during the load transient
or overload condition. Figure 6 shows the typical
characteristics of ferrite core from TDK (PC40). Since the
saturation flux density (BSAT) decreases as the temperature
goes high, the high temperature characteristics should be
considered. If there is no reference data, use BMAX =0.3T.
The number of turns for the auxiliary winding for VDD
supply is determined as:
NA =
VDD * + VF
⋅ N S1
VO + VFA
(19)
where VDD is the nominal value of the supply voltage and
VFA is the forward voltage drop of DDD as defined in Figure
7. Since VDD increases as the output load increases, it is
proper to set VDD at 3~5V higher than VDD UVLO level
(9.5V) to avoid the over-voltage protection condition during
the peak load operation.

These current densities are based on the peak load condition
and therefore almost twice of conventional power supply
design. Avoid using wire with a diameter larger than 1mm
to avoid severe eddy current losses and to make winding
easier. For high current output, use parallel windings with
multiple strands of thinner wire to minimize skin effect.

GND can increase stability substantially. The maximum

[STEP-11] Design the Startup Circuit
(26)
Figure 10 shows the typical startup circuit for FAN6861.
Connecting startup resistor to AC line allows the reset of
latch protection by unplugging the AC line from the power
supply. Two-stage hold-up capacitor configuration (CDD1
and CDD2) is typically used to increase the hold-up time
while minimizing the startup time.
where VOPD is the drop voltage of photodiode, about 1.2V:
VKA is the minimum cathode to anode voltage of shunt
regulator (2.5V); and CTR is the current transfer rate of the
opto-coupler.
Initially, FAN6861 consumes only startup current
(maximum 15μA) before it begins normal switching
operation. Therefore, the current supplied through the
startup resistor (RSTART) can charge capacitor CDD1 while
supplying the startup current to FAN6861. When VDD
reaches turn-on voltage of 17.5V (VDD-ON), FAN6861 begins
switching operation and the current consumed by FAN6861
increases to normal operating current (typical 3mA). Then,
the current required by FAN6861 is supplied from the
auxiliary winding of transformer.

Leading-Edge Blanking (LEB)
Each time the power MOSFET is switched on, a turn-on
spike occurs across the sense resistor, caused by primaryside capacitance and secondary-side rectifier reverse
recovery. To avoid premature termination of the switching
pulse, a leading-edge blanking time is built in. During this
blanking period (360ns), the PWM comparator is disabled
and cannot switch off the gate driver. Thus, an RC filter
with a small RC time constant is enough for current sensing
(e.g. 200Ω + 470pF). A non-inductive resistor is
recommended for RCS.

APPLICATION NOTE
Printed Circuit Board (PCB) Layout
Two suggestions with different pro and cons for ground
connections are offered:
PCB layout is a very important design issue for highfrequency switching current/voltage application. Good PCB
layout minimizes excessive EMI and helps the power supply
survive during surge/ESD tests.
Guidelines:
ƒ
To get better EMI performance and reduce line
frequency ripples, the output of the bridge rectifier
should be connected to capacitor C1 first, then to the
switching circuits.
ƒ
The high-frequency current loop is in C1 –
transformer – MOSFET – RS – C1. The area enclosed
by this current loop should be as small as possible.
Keep the traces (especially 4 → 1) short, direct, and
wide. High-voltage traces related to the drain of
MOSFET and RCD snubber should be kept far way
from control circuits to prevent unnecessary
interference. If a heatsink is used for the MOSFET,
connect this heatsink to ground.
ƒ
As indicated by 3, the ground of control circuits should
be connected first, then to other circuitry.
ƒ
As indicated by 2, the area enclosed by transformer
auxiliary winding, D1, C2, D2, and C3 should also be
kept small. Place C3 close to the FAN6861 for good
decoupling.
ƒ
GND3 → 2 → 4 → 1: This could avoid common
impedance interference for sense signal.
ƒ
GND3 → 2 → 1 → 4: This could be better for ESD
testing where the earth ground is not available on the
power supply. Regarding the ESD discharge path, the
charges go from secondary through the transformer
stray capacitance to GND2 first. The charges then go
from GND2 to GND1 and back to the mains. Note that
control circuits should not be placed on the discharge
path. Point discharge for common choke can decrease
high-frequency impedance and increase ESD immunity.

Should a Y-cap between primary and secondary be
required, connect this Y-cap to the positive terminal of
C1. If this Y-cap is connected to the primary GND, it
should be connected to the negative terminal of C1
(GND1) directly. Point discharge of this Y-cap also
helps for ESD. However, the creepage between these
two pointed ends should be large enough to satisfy the
requirements of applicable standards.
