The advanced PWM controller, FAN501A, simplifies
isolated power supply design that requires CC
regulation of the output. The output current is
precisely estimated with only the information in the
primary side of the transformer and controlled with an
internal compensation circuit, removing the output
current-sensing loss and eliminating external CC
control circuitry. With an extremely low operating
current (250 µA), Burst Mode maximizes light-load
efficiency, allowing conformance to worldwide
Standby Mode efficiency guidelines.

FAN501A — Offline DCM / CCM Flyback PWM Controller for Charger Applications
Typical Performance Characteristics (Continued)
FAN501A is an offline flyback converter controller that
offers constant output voltage (CV) regulation through
opto-coupler feedback circuitry and constant output
current (CC) regulation with primary-side control.
Advanced output current estimation technology allows
stable CC regulation regardless of the power stage
operation mode: Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM)
or Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM).
while COMI is saturated to HIGH level. During CC
regulation, COMI determines the duty cycle while
COMV is saturated to HIGH level.

Dual-switching-frequency operation adaptively selects

PWM Operation for CV / CC Regulation
CV / CC PWM Operation Principle
Primary-Side Constant Current Operation
Figure 19 shows a simplified CV / CC PWM control
circuit of the FAN501A. The Constant Voltage (CV)
regulation is implemented in the same manner as the
conventional isolated power supply, where the output
voltage is sensed using a voltage divider and compared
with the internal reference of the shunt regulator to
generate a compensation signal. The compensation
signal is transferred to the primary side through an optocoupler and scaled down by attenuator AV to generate a
COMV signal. This COMV signal is applied to the PWM
comparator to determine the duty cycle.
Figure 21 and Figure 22 show the key waveforms of a
flyback converter operating in DCM and CCM,
respectively. The output current of each mode is
estimated by calculating the average of output diode
current over one switching cycle:
𝐼𝑂 =< 𝐼𝐷 >𝑡 𝑆 =
𝑡 𝑑𝑡
𝑡𝑆
=
[𝐼𝐷 ]𝐴𝑅𝐸𝐴
𝑡𝑆
(1)
The area of output diode current in both DCM and CCM
operation can be expressed in a same form, as a
product of diode current discharge time (tDIS) and diode
current at the middle of diode discharge (ID-Mid), such as:
The Constant Current (CC) regulation is implemented
internally with primary-side control. The output current
estimator calculates the output current using the
transformer primary-side current and diode current
discharge time. By comparing the estimated output
current with internal reference signal, a COMI signal is
generated to determine the duty cycle.
[𝐼𝐷 ]𝐴𝑅𝐸𝐴 = 𝐼𝐷−𝑀𝑖𝑑 ∙ 𝑡𝐷𝐼𝑆
(2)
In steady state, ID_Mid can be expressed as:
𝑁𝑃
(3)
𝑁𝑆
where IDS_Mid is primary-side current at the middle of
MOSFET conduction time and NP/NS is primary-tosecondary turn ratio.
𝐼𝐷−𝑀𝑖𝑑 = 𝐼𝐷𝑆_𝑀𝑖𝑑 ∙
These two control signals, COMV and COMI, are
compared with an internal sawtooth waveform (VSAW) by
two PWM comparators to determine the duty cycle.
Figure 20 illustrates the outputs of two comparators
,combined with an OR gate, to determine the MOSFET
turn-off instant. Of COMV and COMI, the lower signal
determines the duty cycle. As shown in Figure 20,
during CV regulation, COMV determines the duty cycle

VCS_Mid is obtained by sampling the current-sense
voltage at the middle of the MOSFET conduction time.
The diode current discharge time is obtained by
detecting the diode current zero-crossing instant. Since
the diode current cannot be sensed directly in the
primary side, Zero-Crossing Detection (ZCD) is
accomplished indirectly by monitoring the auxiliary
winding voltage in the primary side. When the diode
current reaches zero, the transformer winding voltage
begins to drop sharply. To detect the corner voltage, the
VS is sampled, called VSH, at 85% of diode current
discharge time (tDIS) of the previous switching cycle and
compared with the instantaneous V S voltage. When
instantaneous voltage of the VS pin drops below VSH by
more than 200 mV, the ZCD of diode current is
obtained, as shown in Figure 23.

Line Voltage Detection and its Utilization
The FAN501A indirectly senses line voltage using the
current flowing out of the VS pin while the MOSFET is
turned on, as illustrated in Figure 25 and Figure 26.
During the MOSFET turn-on period, auxiliary winding
voltage, VAux, reflects input bulk capacitor voltage, V BLK,
by the transformer coupling between primary and
auxiliary. During MOSFET conduction time, the line
voltage detector clamps the VS pin voltage ~0.5 V and
the current, IVS, flowing from the VS pin is expressed as:
The output current can be programmable by setting
current sensing resistor as:

Dual Switching Frequency
The FAN501A changes the switching frequency
between 85 kHz and 140 kHz according to the line
voltage. It is typical to design the flyback converter to
operate in CCM for low line and DCM in high line.
Therefore, the peak transformer current decreases as
the operation mode changes from CCM to DCM, as
shown in Figure 24(a), for single-frequency operation.
The transformer is not fully utilized at high line when a
single switching frequency is used. The peak
transformer current can be maintained almost constant
when the flyback converter operates at lower frequency
at high line, as illustrated in Figure 24(b). This allows full
transformer utilization and improves the efficiency by
decreasing the switching losses at high line.

When IVS is larger than IVS-H (750 µA), the switching
frequency is set at fOSC-L (85 kHz) in CV Mode. When IVS
is less than IVS-L (680 µA), the switching frequency is set
at fOSC-H (140 kHz) in CV Mode. For the universal line
range, the frequency change should occur between 132

Maximum Power Limit by Precision CC Control
Primary-side current-sensing voltage is used to estimate
the output current for CC regulation. However, the
actual output current regulation is also affected by the
turn-off delay of the MOSFET, as illustrated in Figure
27. While FAN501A samples the CS pin voltage at the
half on-time of gate drive signal, the actual turn-off is
delayed by the MOSFET gate charge and driving
current resulting in peak current detection error as:
(b) Dual frequency operation

Dual-Frequency Operation
Brownout Protection
Line voltage information is also used for brownout
protection. When the IVS current out of the VS pin during
the MOSFET conduction time is less than 160 μA for
longer than 30 ms, the brownout protection is triggered.
When setting RVS1 as calculated in Equation (8), the
brownout level is set at 30 VAC.

As can be seen, the error is proportional to the line
voltage. FAN501A has an internal correction function to
improve CC regulation, as shown in Figure 28. Line
information is obtained through the line voltage detector
as shown in Figure 25 and Figure 26 and this
information is used for the CC regulation correction. The
correction gain can be programmed using external
resistor RCOMP on the COMP pin. This correction
current, ILVF, flows through internal resistor, RLVF, and
external resistor, RCSF, to introduce offset voltage on
current sensing voltage. Thus, the primary current
detection error affected by line voltage and turn-off
delay is corrected for better CC regulation. The R COMP

During this blanking period, the current-limit comparator

CC Correction Circuit
Pulse-by-Pulse Current Limit
Since the peak transformer current is controlled by a
feedback loop, the peak transformer current is not
properly controlled when the feedback loop is saturated
to HIGH, which typically occurs under startup or
overload conditions. To limit the current, a pulse-bypulse current limit forces the gate drive signal to turn off
when the CS pin voltage reaches the current-limit
threshold (VCS-LIM) in normal operation.
Noise Immunity
Noise from the current sense or the control signal can
cause significant pulse-width jitter. Though slope
compensation helps alleviate this problem, precautions
should be taken to improve the noise immunity. Good
placement and layout practices are important. Avoid
long PCB traces and component leads and locate
bypass capacitor as close to the PWM IC as possible.
Burst Mode Operation
The power supply enters Burst Mode at no-load or
extremely light-load condition. As shown in Figure 29,
when VFB drops below VFB-Burst-L, the PWM output shuts
off and the output voltage drops at a rate dependent on
load current. This causes the feedback voltage to rise.
Once VFB exceeds VFB-Burst-H, the internal circuit starts to
provide a switching pulse. The feedback voltage then
falls and the process repeats. In this manner, Burst
Mode alternately enables and disables switching of the
MOSFET to reduce the switching losses in Standby
Mode. In Burst Mode, the operating current is reduced
from 3.5 mA to 250 μA to minimize power consumption.

High Voltage (HV) Startup
Figure 30 shows the high-voltage (HV) startup circuit for
FAN501A applications. The JFET is used to internally
implement the high-voltage current source (see Figure
31 for characteristics). Technically, the HV pin can be
directly connected to voltage (VBLK) on an input bulk
capacitor. To improve reliability and surge immunity,
however, it is typical to use a ~100 kΩ resistor between
the HV pin and bulk capacitor voltage. The actual HV
current with a given bulk capacitor voltage and startup
resistor is determined by the intersection of V-I
characteristics line and load line, as shown in Figure 31.

The turn-off delay should be obtained by measuring the
time between the falling edge and actual turn-off instant
of MOSFET, as illustrated in Figure 27.

The supply current drawn from the HV pin charges the
hold-up capacitor. When VDD reaches the turn-on
voltage of 17.5 V, normal operation resumes. In this
manner, Auto-Restart Mode alternately enables and
disables MOSFET switching until the abnormal
condition is eliminated, as shown in Figure 32.

Auto-Restart Mode Operation
When a Latch Mode protection is triggered, PWM
switching is terminated and the MOSFET remains off,
causing VDD to drop. When VDD drops to the VDD turn-off
voltage of 5.8 V, the internal startup circuit is enabled
without resetting the protection and the supply current
drawn from HV pin charges the hold-up capacitor. Since
the protection is not reset, the IC does not resume PWM
switching even when VDD reaches the turn-on voltage of
17.5 V, disabling HV startup circuit. Then V DD drops
again down to 5.8 V. In this manner, Latch Mode
protection alternately charges and discharges V DD until
there is no more energy in DC link capacitor. The
protection is reset when VDD drops to 2.5 V, which is
allowed only after power supply is unplugged from the
AC line, as shown in Figure 33.

During startup, the internal startup circuit is enabled and
the bulk capacitor voltage supplies the current, IHV, to
charge the hold-up capacitor, CVDD, through RHV. When
VDD reaches VDD-ON, the internal HV startup circuit is
disabled and the IC starts PWM switching. Once the HV
startup circuit is disabled, the energy stored in C VDD
should supply the IC operating current until the
transformer auxiliary winding voltage reaches the
nominal value. Therefore, CVDD should be designed to
prevent VDD from dropping to VDD-OFF before the auxiliary
winding builds up enough voltage to supply V DD.

Externally Triggered Shutdown
By pulling the SD pin voltage below threshold voltage,
VSD-TH (1.0 V); shutdown can be externally triggered and
the FAN501A enters Latch Mode protection. It can be
also used for external OTP protection by connecting an
NTC thermistor between the shutdown (SD)
programming pin and ground. An internal constant
current source, ISD (100 µA), introduces voltage drop
across the thermistor. Resistance of the NTC thermistor
becomes smaller as the ambient temperature increases,
which reduces the voltage drops across the thermistor.
When the voltage of the SD pin is less than threshold
voltage VSD-TH (1.0 V), OTP protection is triggered.
Fold-Back Point and Over-Voltage Protection (VS
OVP)
Generally, the fold-back point in CC regulation as output
drops is determined by the VDD-OFF level. Thus, the foldback level mainly depends on the characteristics of the
VDD diode and transformer. For VS pin voltage divider
design, RVS1 is obtained from Equation (8), and RVS2 is
determined by the VSOVP function as:

where VO-OVP is the output over-voltage protection

VS over-voltage protection prevents damage caused by
output over-voltage condition. Figure 34 shows the
internal circuit of VS OVP. When abnormal system
conditions occur that cause VS sampling voltage to
exceed VVS-OVP (3.2 V) for more than debounce
switching cycles (NVS-OVP), PWM pulses are disabled
and the FAN501A enters Latch Mode protection. VS
over-voltage conditions are usually caused by an open
circuit in the secondary-side feedback network or a fault
condition in the VS pin voltage divider resistors.
