Generally, discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) operation is preferred for primary-side regulation since it allows better output regulation. The operation principles of DCM flyback converter are as follows: Of the two error voltages, VCOMV and VCOMI, the smaller determines the duty cycle. During constant voltage regulation mode, VCOMV determines the duty cycle while VCOMI is saturated to HIGH. During constant current regulation mode, VCOMI determines the duty cycle while VCOMV is saturated to HIGH. During the MOSFET on time (tON), input voltage (VDL) is applied across the primary side inductor (Lm). Then, MOSFET current (Ids) increases linearly from zero to the peak value (Ipk). During this time, the energy is drawn from the input and stored in the inductor. When the MOSFET is turned off, the energy stored in the inductor forces the rectifier diode (D) to be turned on. While the diode is conducting, the output voltage (Vo), together with diode forward-voltage drop (VF), is 2 applied across the secondary-side inductor (Lm×Ns / 2 Np ) and the diode current (ID) decreases linearly from the peak value (Ipk× Np/Ns) to zero. At the end of inductor current discharge time (tDIS), all the energy stored in the inductor has been delivered to the output. When the diode current reaches zero, the transformer auxiliary winding voltage (Vw) begins to oscillate by the resonance between the primary-side inductor (Lm) and the effective capacitor loaded across the MOSFET. FAN100 — Primary-Side-Control PWM Controller Functional Description Figure 23. Simplified PSR Flyback Converter Circuit During the inductor current discharge time, the sum of output voltage and diode forward-voltage drop is reflected to the auxiliary winding side as (Vo+VF)× Na/Ns. Since the diode forward-voltage drop decreases as current decreases, the auxiliary winding voltage reflects the output voltage best at the end of diode conduction time where the diode current diminishes to zero. Thus, by sampling the winding voltage at the end of the diode conduction time, the output voltage information can be obtained. The internal error amplifier for output voltage regulation (EA_V) compares the sampled voltage with internal precise reference to generate error voltage (VCOMV), which determines the duty cycle of the MOSFET in CV mode. I pk I pk ⋅ NP NS I D .avg = I o Meanwhile, the output current can be estimated using the peak drain current and inductor current discharge time since output current is the same as average of the diode current in steady state. VF ⋅ The output current estimator detects the peak value of the drain current with a peak detection circuit and calculates the output current using the inductor discharge time (tDIS) and switching period (ts). This output information is compared with the internal precise reference to generate error voltage (VCOMI), which determines the duty cycle of the MOSFET in CC mode. With Fairchild’s innovative technique, TRUECURRENT™, constant current (CC) output can be precisely controlled. NA NS VO ⋅ NA NS Figure 24. Key Waveforms of DCM Flyback Converter © 2009 Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation FAN100 Rev. 1.0.2 www.fairchildsemi.com 10 Built-in temperature compensation provides constant voltage regulation over a wide range of temperature variation. This internal compensation current compensates the forward-voltage drop variation of the secondary side rectifier diode. Green-Mode Operation The FAN100 uses voltage regulation error amplifier output (VCOMV) as an indicator of the output load and modulates the PWM frequency as shown in Figure 25 such that the switching frequency decreases as load decreases. In heavy-load conditions, the switching frequency is fixed at 42KHz. Once VCOMV decreases below 2.8V, the PWM frequency starts to linearly decrease from 42KHz to 550Hz to reduce the switching losses. As VCOMV decreases below 0.8V, the switching frequency is fixed at 550Hz and FAN100 enters into “deep green” mode, where the operating current reduces to 1mA, reducing the standby power consumption. Figure 26. Frequency Hopping Startup FAN100 — Primary-Side-Control PWM Controller Temperature Compensation Figure 27 shows the typical startup circuit and transformer auxiliary winding for FAN100 application. Before FAN100 begins switching, it consumes only startup current (maximum 10μA) and the current supplied through the startup resistor charges the VDD capacitor (CDD). When VDD reaches turn-on voltage of 16V (VDD-ON), FAN100 begins switching, and the current consumed increases to 3.5mA. Then, the power required for FAN100 is supplied from the transformer auxiliary winding. The large hysteresis of VDD provides more hold-up time, which allows using small capacitor for VDD. Figure 25. Switching Frequency in Green Mode Leading-Edge Blanking (LEB) At the instant the MOSFET is turned on, a high-current spike occurs through the MOSFET, caused by primaryside capacitance and secondary-side rectifier reverse recovery. Excessive voltage across the RCS resistor can lead to premature turn-off of the MOSFET. FAN100 employs an internal leading edge blanking (LEB) circuit to inhibit the PWM comparator for a short time after the MOSFET turns on. External RC filtering is not required. Frequency Hopping EMI reduction is accomplished by frequency hopping, which spreads the energy over a wider frequency range than the bandwidth measured by the EMI test equipment. FAN100 has an internal frequency-hopping circuit that changes the switching frequency between 39.4kHz and 44.6kHz with a period of 3ms, as shown in Figure 26. Figure 27. Startup Circuit © 2009 Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation FAN100 Rev. 1.0.2 www.fairchildsemi.com 11 VDD Over-Voltage Protection (OVP) VDD over-voltage protection prevents damage from overvoltage conditions. If the VDD voltage exceeds 28V by open-feedback condition, OVP is triggered. The OVP has a debounce time (typical 250µs) to prevent false triggering by switching noise. It also protects other switching devices from over voltage. The FAN100 has several self-protective functions, such as Over-Voltage Protection (OVP), Over-Temperature Protection (OTP), and brownout protection. All the protections are implemented as auto-restart mode. When auto-restart protection is triggered, switching is terminated and the MOSFET remains off. This causes VDD to fall. When VDD reaches the VDD turn-off voltage of 5V, the current consumed by FAN100 reduces to the startup current (maximum 10µA) and the current supplied startup resistor charges the VDD capacitor. When VDD reaches the turn-on voltage of 16V, FAN100 resumes normal operation. In this manner, the autorestart alternately enables and disables the switching of the MOSFET until the fault condition is eliminated (see Figure 28). VDS Over-Temperature Protection (OTP) The built-in temperature-sensing circuit shuts down PWM output if the junction temperature exceeds 140°C. Brownout Protection FAN100 detects the line voltage using auxiliary winding voltage since the auxiliary winding voltage reflects the input voltage when the MOSFET is turned on. VS pin is clamped at 1.15V while the MOSFET is turned on and brownout protection is triggered if the current out of VS pin is less than IVS-UVP (typical 180μA) during the MOSFET conduction. Fault Occurs Power On Fault Removed Pulse-by-pulse Current Limit When the sensing voltage across the current sense resistor exceeds the internal threshold of 1.3V, the MOSFET is turned off for the remainder of the switching cycle. In normal operation, the pulse-by-pulse current limit is not triggered since the peak current is limited by the control loop.

This highly integrated PSR PWM controller contains several features to enhance the performance of low-power flyback converters. The patented topology of the PSR controller allows for simplified of circuit designs, particularly battery charger applications. CV and CC control can be accurately achieved without secondary feedback circuitry. With the addition of frequency-hopping in PWM operation, EMI problems can be solved using minimized filter components. As a result, a low-cost, smaller, and lighter charger is produced when compared to a conventional design or a linear transformer. By using the PSR controller, a charger can be implemented with few external components and at a minimized cost. Internal Block Operation Constant Voltage Output Regulation PSR controller’s innovative method can achieve accurate output CV/CC characteristic without voltage and current sensing circuitry on the secondary side. The application circuit and a conceptualized internal block diagram relating to the constant voltage regulation are shown in Figure 11, and the key waveform is shown in Figure 12. The secondary output status is taken from the primary auxiliary winding when the MOSFET is off. A unique sampling method is used to acquire a duplication of the output voltage (Vsah) and the output diode discharge time (tdis). The sampled voltage (Vsah) is then compared with the precise internal reference voltage (Vref) to determine the on-time of the MOSFET by modulating error amplifier’s output. This inexpensive method achieves accurate output voltage regulation. To minimize standby power consumption, the proprietary green-mode function provides off-time modulation to linearly decrease the PWM frequency under light-load conditions. This green-mode function is designed to help the power supply meet power conservation requirements. The startup current is only 10µA, which allows for the use of large startup resistance for further power savings. The PSR controller also provides numerous protection functions. The VDD pin is equipped with over-voltage protection and under-voltage lockout. Pulse-by-pulse current limiting and CC control ensure over-current protection during heavy loads. The GATE output is clamped at 15V to protect the external/internal MOSFET from over-voltage damage.

As a result, the output current IO can be calculated by the signal ipk, tdis. The PSR controller then determines the on-time of the MOSFET to modulate input power and provide constant output current. The proprietary green-mode function of the PSR controller provides off-time modulation to linearly decrease the PWM frequency at light-load conditions, as low as 500Hz. With the green-mode function, the power supply can easily meet the most stringent of power conservation requirements. Figure 13 shows the characteristics of the PWM frequency vs. the output voltage of the error amplifier (VCOMV). The PSR controller uses the positive, proportional, output load parameter (VCOMV) as an indication of the output load for modulating the PWM frequency. In heavy load conditions, the PWM frequency is fixed at 42KHz. Once VCOMV is lower than VN, the PWM frequency starts to linearly decrease from 42KHz to 500Hz.

This internal positive temperature coefficient (PTC) compensation current is used to compensate for the temperature due to the forwardvoltage drop of the diode output. Without temperature compensation, the output voltage is distinctly higher in high temperatures than in lower temperature condition, as shown in Figure 18. Figure 15. Gate Signal with Frequency Hopping CV / CC Regulation Battery chargers are typically designed for two modes of operation, constant-voltage charging and constant-current charging. The basic charging characteristic is shown in Figure 16. When the battery voltage is low, the charger operates on a constant current charging. This is the main method for charging batteries and most of the charging energy is transferred into the batteries. When the battery voltage reaches its end-of-charge voltage, the current begins to taper-off. The charger then enters the constant voltage method of charging. Finally, the charging current continues to taper-off until reaching zero. Vo high temp. after compensation at high temp. room temp. Vo(V) CV Regulation Sequence Io CC Regulation Charging Figure 18.

Basic Charging V-I Characteristic As mentioned in the CV regulation region section, the VCOMV modulates MOSFET’s on-time and PWM frequency to provide enough power to the output load. As shown in Figure 17, as the output load increases, VCOMV gradually rises until the system shifts into the CC regulation region. At the same time, VCOMV increases to 4.5V and the MOSEFT’s on time is controlled by VCOMI.

Within every switching cycle, the PSR controller produces a positively sloped, synchronized ramp signal. The built-in slope compensation function improves power supply stability and prevents peak-current-mode control from causing sub-harmonic oscillations. GND Figure 20. Single-Step Circuit Connected to the PSR Controller The power-on delay is determined as follows: TD _ ON (V = ⎛ VDD −ON = − RIN ⋅ C1 ⋅ ln⎜⎜1 − ⎝ Vac ⋅ 2 − I DD − ST ⋅ RIN ⎞ ⎟ ⎟ ⎠ Leading Edge Blanking (LEB) Each time the MOSFET is powered on, a spike, induced by the diode reverse recovery and by the output capacitances of the MOSFET and diode, appears on the sensed signal. To avoid premature termination of the MOSEFT, a leadingedge blanking time is introduced in the PSR controller. During the blanking period, the current-limit comparator is disabled and unable to switch off the gate driver. (2) where IDD-ST is the startup current of the PSR controller. Due to the low startup current, a large RIN value, such as 1.5MΩ can be used. With a hold-up capacitor of 4.7µF, the power-on delay TD_ON is less than 3s for a 90VAC input. If a shorter startup time is required, a two-step startup circuit, as shown in Figure 21, is recommended. In this circuit, a smaller C1 capacitor can be used to decrease startup time without a need for a smaller startup resistor (RIN) and increase the power dissipation on the RIN resistor. The energy supporting the PSR controller after startup is mainly from a larger capacitor C2. Under-Voltage Lockout (UVLO) The power-on and off thresholds of the PSR controller are fixed at 16V/5V. During startup, the hold-up capacitor must be charged to 16V through the startup resistor to enable PSR controller. The hold-up capacitor continues to supply VDD until power can be delivered from the auxiliary winding of the main transformer (VDD must not drop below 5V during this startup process). This UVLO hysteresis window ensures that the hold-up capacitor can adequately supply VDD during startup. Vdc R IN VDD Over-Voltage Protection (OVP) TD_ON VDD over-voltage protection prevents damage due to overvoltage conditions. When VDD exceeds 28V due to abnormal conditions, PWM output is turned off. Over-voltage conditions are usually caused by open feedback loops. VDD PSR Controller C1 C2 GND Over-Temperature Protection (OTP) The PSR controller has a built-in temperature sensing circuit to shut down the PWM output if the junction temperature exceeds 145°C. When the PWM output shuts down, the VDD voltage gradually drops to the UVLO voltage. Some of the internal circuits shut down and VDD gradually starts Figure 21.

When VDD reaches 16V, all the internal circuits, including the temperature sensing circuit, start operating normally. If the junction temperature is still higher than 145°C, the PWM controller shuts down immediately. This continues until the temperature drops below 120°C. For example, a power board for a charger application is 5V/1A. Short the COMR pin to GND first and measure the output voltage from light load to maximum load. If the output voltage with cable is 4.7V at 1A, the percentage to 5V is 6%. Calculate the RCOMR as: RCOMR = GATE Output The PSR controller BiCMOS output stage is a fast totem pole gate driver. Cross conduction design elimination was used to minimize heat dissipation, increase efficiency, and enhance reliability.

Figure 23 is RCOMR compared to percentage curve for reference. 12 10 Percentage (%) Brownout Protection The PSR controller has a built-in brownout protection circuit to shut down the PWM output.

Brownout Protection Cable Compensation The FAN102/FSEZ1216 PWM controller has a cable compensation function used to compensate the output voltage drop due to output cable loss. Use an external resistor connected from COMR pin to GND adjusts the amount of cable compensation. In CV regulation control, the on-time of MOSFET only regulates on-board voltage, not including output cable. Different cable wire gauge or length results in different output voltage. As previous mentioned in the CC regulation control section that can calculate the output current. This calculated signal can provide the controller the output load condition and determine the amount of cable compensation, then rescue output voltage drop.

The red line shows ripple voltage on the bulk capacitor and the minimum and maximum voltage on the bulk capacitor is expressed in equations 7 and 8, respectively.

The suggested transformer structure is shown in Figure 29 and Figure 30. The coupling coefficient between the secondary winding and the auxiliary winding can be effectively improved by sloughing off the EMI shielding between auxiliary winding and secondary winding.

The capacitor is used to bypass switching induced noise and keep the accuracy of the sampled voltage. The value of the capacitor affects the load regulation and constant current performance. Figure 31 illustrates the measured waveform on the Vs pin with a different VS capacitor. If a higher value VS capacitor is used, the charging time becomes longer and the sampled voltage is higher than the actual value. Figure 32 shows the effect on the sampled voltage with a different VS capacitor. No-Load Figure 33 shows a measured Vs pin waveform at a no-load condition. As illustrated, the feedback voltage is too narrow. Additionally, a large VS capacitor causes the inaccurate sampling of the voltage; resulting in the rising of the output voltage.

Comparison of V-I Curve with Different Vs Capacitor Effect of VDD and Snubber Capacitors VDD voltage and snubber capacitors are related to the feedback signal inaccuracy and cause output voltage to rise at no-load condition. If the VDD capacitor is not big enough, the decreasing PWM frequency at no-load condition causes VDD voltage to drop quickly. In such a condition, the feedback signal is dominated by the VDD voltage, but not the secondary output voltage. To avoid this, it is recommended the VDD capacitor value be larger than 4.7µF(6.8~10µF). Figure 31. Measured Waveform with Different VS Capacitor higher Vs Cap lower Vs Cap Vs pin waveform sampling voltage On the other hand, the value of the snubber capacitor also affects the output voltage performance. When the MOSEFT is turned off, the polarity of the transformer primary side inductor is reversed and the energy stored in the transformer inductor is delivered to the secondary to supply load current. In the meantime, if the output voltage is higher than the voltage on the secondary winding (Vsec), the output diode is still reversed. The resulting voltage Vpri is then applied to the primary inductor, Lp, which charges the snubber capacitor. The charge time influences the feedback voltage signal on the auxiliary winding. It is recommended that the snubber capacitor remain under 472pF(332~102pF). sampling voltage No - Load Figure 32.

Good PCB layout minimizes excessive EMI and helps the power supply survive during surge/ESD tests. Suggestion for the Ground Connections GND 3→2→4→1: May make it possible to avoid common impedance interference for the sense signal. Regarding the ESD discharge path, the charges go from secondary through the transformer stray capacitance to GND2 first. Then the charges go from GND2 to GND1 and back to the mains. It should be noted that control circuits should not be placed on the discharge path. General Guidelines The numbers in the following guidelines refer to Figure 37. To improve EMI performance and reduce line frequency ripples, the output of the bridge rectifier should be connected to capacitors C1 and C2 first, then to the switching circuits. 5 Should a point-discharge route to bypass the static electricity energy. As shown in Figure 38, it is suggested to map out this discharge route. The high-frequency current loop is in C2 – Transformer – MOSFET – R7 – C2. The area enclosed by this current loop should be as small as possible. Start in secondary GND to the positive terminal of C2, then to front terminal of bridge rectifier. If this discharge route is connected to the primary GND, it should be connected to the negative terminal of C2 (GND1) directly. 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 a ground. However, the creepage distance between these two pointed ends should be long enough to satisfy the requirements of applicable standards. As indicated by 3, the ground of the control circuits should be connected first, then to other circuitry. As indicated by 2, the area enclosed by the transformer aux winding, D1 and C3, should also be kept small. Place C3 close to the PSR controller for good decoupling. 5 R13 5 T1 BD1 R8 C1 C6 C2 D4 L1 R1 1 D1 R2 C3 R3 U1 7 3 COMI C8 R10 C7 R9 VS 5 VDD 4 COMV 6 SGND GATE CS PGND PSR Controller 8 1 2 D3 C5 R4 R5 R6 2 R7 4 3 Figure 37.
