
DESCRIPTION
The UTC US3706 combines a dedicated current mode PWM
controller with a high voltage power MOSFET. Low VDD startup
current make the power reliable on startup design and a large
value resistor could be used in the startup circuit to minimize the
standby power. At no load condition, the IC operates in
power-saving mode for lower standby power, decreasing frequency
for Higher conversion efficiency at light load condition.
The UTC US3706 offers complete protection coverage with
automatic self-recovery feature including Cycle-by-Cycle current
limiting (OCP), over load protection (OLP), over temperature
protection (OTP), over voltage protection and VDD under
voltage lockout (UVLO).
The internal slope compensation improves system stability at
high PWM duty cycle output. Leading-edge blanking on current
sense input removes the signal glitch, which offering minimal
external component count in the design. Excellent EMI
performance is achieved with UTC proprietary frequency hopping
technique (ZL201020615247.1) together with soft driver control.
Audio noise is eliminated due to switch frequency more than 20kHz
during operation.
The US3706 has such applications as: battery charger, power
adaptor, set-top box power supplies, ink jet printers, open-frame
SMPS.

OPERATION DESCRIPTION
The UTC US3706 is a low power off-line SMPS Switcher optimized for off-line flyback converter. It integrates
many useful designs into one controller for low-power switch-mode power supplies. The following descriptions
highlight some of the features of the US3706 series.
Startup Current and Start up Control
The start-up current is only 2.5μA. Low start-up current allows a start-up resistor with a high resistance and a
low-wattage to supply the start-up power for the controller. For AC/DC adaptor with universal input range design, a
2.5~3MΩ, 1/8W startup resistor could be used together with a VDD capacitor to provide a fast startup and low power
dissipation solution.
Power-Saving Mode Operation
The proprietary Power-Saving Mode function provides linearly decreasing the switching frequency under
light-load conditions for higher efficiency. The feedback voltage, which is sampled from the voltage feedback loop, is
taken as the reference. Once the feedback voltage dropped below the threshold voltage, the switching frequency
starts to decrease. This Power-Saving Mode function dramatically reduces power consumption under light-load
conditions. The 22KHz minimum frequency control also eliminates the audio noise at any loading conditions.
At zero load condition, the magnitude of power loss is in proportion to the number of switching events within a
fixed period of time. Reducing switching events leads to the reduction on the power loss and thus conserves the
energy. The US3706 enter burst mode at standby condition to minimize the switching loss and reduces the standby
power consumption. Power supplies using the US3706 can easily meet even the strictest regulations regarding
standby power consumption.
Switch Frequency Set
The maximum switch frequency is fixed to 60KHz. Switch frequency is modulated by output power POUT during IC
operating. At no load or light load condition, most of the power dissipation in a switching mode power supply is from
switching loss on the MOSFET transistor, the core loss of the transformer and the loss on the snubber circuit. The
magnitude of power loss is in proportion to the number of switching events within a fixed period of time. So lower
switch frequency at lower load, which more and more improve IC’s efficiency at light load. At from no load to light
load condition, The IC will operate at from Burst mode to Reducing Frequency Mode. The relation curve between fSW
and POUT/POUT (MAX) as followed Fig.1.

OPERATION DESCRIPTION (Cont.)
Frequency Hopping For EMI Improvement
The Frequency hopping is implemented in the IC; there are two oscillators built-in the IC. The first oscillator is to
set the normal switching frequency; the switching frequency is modulated with a period signal generated by the 2nd
oscillator. The relation between the first oscillator and the 2nd oscillator as followed Fig.2. So the tone energy is
evenly spread out, the spread spectrum minimizes the conduction band EMI and therefore eases the system design
in meeting stringent EMI requirement.
Fig.2 Frequency Hopping
Built-in Slope Compensation
Built-in slope compensation circuit greatly improves the close loop stability at CCM and prevents the
sub-harmonic oscillation.
Leading-Edge Blanking
Each time the power MOSFET is switched on, a turn-on spike will inevitably occur at the sense-resistor. To avoid
premature termination of the switching pulse, a 400ns leading-edge blanking time is built in. Conventional RC
filtering can therefore be omitted. During this blanking period, the current-limit comparator is disabled and it cannot
switch off the power MOSFET.
Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO)
The turn-on and turn-off thresholds of the US3706 are fixed internally at VDD(ON)/VDD(MIN) During start-up, the
hold-up capacitor must be charged to VDD(ON) through the start-up resistor, so that the US3706 will be enabled. The
hold-up capacitor will continue to supply VDD until power can be delivered from the auxiliary winding of the main
transformer. VDD must not drop below VDD(MIN) during this start-up process. This UVLO hysteresis window ensures
that hold-up capacitor will be adequate to supply VDD during start-up.

Protection Controls
The IC takes on more protection functions such as OVP, OLP and OTP etc. In case of those failure occurs for
continual blanking time, the power MOSFET is shut down. Power MOSFET is reset after failure is eliminated.
OVP
The OVP will shut down the switching of the power MOSFET whenever VDD >VOVP. The OVP event as followed
