Due to valley switching, the turn on voltage is reduced and this offers higher conversion efficiency comparing to hard-switching flyback converter. With the DCM mode control, the reverse recovery problem of secondary rectify diode is relieved. And for its natural frequency jittering with line voltage, the EMI performance is better. Infineon’s digital frequency reduction technology enables a quasi-resonant operation till very low load. As a result, the system efficiency, over the entire load range, is significantly improved compared to conventional free running quasi resonant converter implemented with only maximum switching frequency limitation at light load. In addition, numerous adjustable protection functions have been implemented in ICE2QR0665 to protect the system and customize the IC for the chosen application. In case of failure modes, like open control-loop/over load, output overvoltage, and transformer short winding, the device switches into Auto Restart Mode or Latch-off Mode. By means of the cycle-bycycle peak current limitation plus foldback point correction, the dimension of the transformer and current rating of the secondary diode can both be optimized.Thus, a cost effective solution can be easily achieved. 2 Evaluation Board Figure 1-EVALSQ-40W-ICE2QR0665 3 List of Features Industry first IC in DIP8 package with 40W maximum output power 650V avalanche rugged CoolMOS® with built in depletion startup cell Quasi-resonant operation Digital frequency reduction with decreasing load Cycle-by-cycle peak current limitation with foldback point correction Built-in digital soft-start Direct current sensing with internal Leading Edge Blanking Time VCC under voltage protection: IC stop operation, recover with softstart VCC over voltage protection: IC stop operation, recover with softstart Openloop/Overload protection: Auto Restart Output overvoltage protection: Latch-off with adjustable threshold Short-winding protection: Latch-off Over temperature protection: Autorestart Application Note 5 11 November 2011 EVALQRC-40W-ICE2QR0665 4 Technical Specifications Input voltage Input frequency Output voltage and current Output power Efficiency Standby power Minimum switching frequency at full load, minimum input voltage 5 85Vac~265Vac 50Hz, 60Hz 20V 2A 40W >86% at full load <100mW@no load 40kHz Circuit Description 5.1 Mains Input and Rectification The AC line input side comprises the input fuse F1 as overcurrent protection. The X2 Capacitors C1, C2 and Choke L1 form a main filter to minimize the feedback of RFI into the main supply. After the bridge rectifier BR1, together with a smoothing capacitor C3, provide a voltage of 70VDC to 380 VDC depending on mains input voltage. A 2.5 Ω NTC resistor is placed in series with input to limit the initial peak inrush current whenever the power supply is switched on when C3 is fully discharged. 5.2 Integrated MOSFET and PWM Control ICE2QR0665 is comprised of a power MOSFET and the quasi-resonant controller; this integrated solution greatly simplifies the circuit layout and reduces the cost of PCB manufacturing. The PWM switch-on is determined by the zero-crossing input signal and the value of the up/down counter. The PWM switch-off is determined by the feedback signal VFB and the current sensing signal VCS. ICE2QR0665 also performs all necessary protection functions in flyback converters. Details about the information mentioned above are illustrated in the product datasheet. 5.3 Snubber Network A snubber network R1, C4 and D1 dissipate the energy of the leakage inductance and suppress ringing on the SMPS transformer. Due to the resonant capacitor C10 paralled to MOSFET drain souce pin, the overshoot is relatively smaller than fixed frequency flyback converter. Thus the snubber resistor can be used with a larger one which will reduce the snubber loss. 5.4 Output Stage On the secondary side, 20V output, the power is coupled out via a dual schottky diode D3. The capacitors C11 and C16 provide energy buffering followed by the L-C filters L2 and C12 to reduce the output ripple and prevent interference between SMPS switching frequency and line frequency considerably. Storage capacitors C11 and C16 are designed to have an internal resistance (ESR) as small as possible. This is to minimize the output voltage ripple caused by the triangular current. 5.5 Feedback Loop For feedback, the output is sensed by the voltage divider of R10, R11 and R12 and compared to TL431 internal reference voltage. C15, C14 and R8 comprise the compensation network. The output voltage of TL431 is converted to the current signal via optocoupler IC2 and two resistors R6 and R7 for regulation control. 6 Circuit Operation 6.1 Startup Operation Application Note 6 11 November 2011 EVALQRC-40W-ICE2QR0665 Since there is a built-in startup cell in the ICE2QR0665, there is no need for external start up resistor, which can improve standby performance significantly. When VCC reaches the turn on voltage threshold 18V, the IC begins with a soft start. The soft-start implemented in ICE2QR0665 is a digital time-based function. The preset soft-start time is 12ms with 4 steps. If not limited by other functions, the peak voltageon CS pin will increase step by step from 0.32V to 1V finally. After IC turns on, the Vcc voltage is supplied by auxiliary windings of the transformer. 6.2 Normal Mode Operation The secondary output voltage is built up after startup. The secondary regulation control is adopted with TL431 and optocoupler. The compensation network C14, C15 and R8 constitutes the external circuitry of the error amplifier of TL431. This circuitry allows the feedback to be precisely controlled with respect to dynamically varying load conditions, therefore providing stable control. 6.3 Primary side peak current control The MOSFET drain source current is sensed via external resistor R5 and R5A. Since ICE2QR0665 is a current mode controller, it would have a cycle-by-cycle primary current and feedback voltage control which can make sure the maximum power of the converter is controlled in every switching cycle. 6.4 Digital Frequency Reduction During normal operation, the switching frequency for ICE2QR0665 is digitally reduced with decreasing load. At light load, the MOSFET will be turned on not at the first minimum drain-source voltage time, but on the nth. The counter is in range of 1 to 7, which depends on feedback voltage in a time-base. The feedback voltage decreases when the output power requirement decreases, and vice versa. Therefore, the counter is set by monitoring voltage VFB. The counter will be increased with low VFB and decreased with high VFB. The thresholds are preset inside the IC. 6.5 Burst Mode Operation At light load condition, the SMPS enters into Active Burst Mode. At this stage, the controller is always active but the Vcc must be kept above the switch off threshold. During active burst mode, the efficiency increase significantly and at the same time it supports low ripple on Vout and fast response on load jump. For determination of entering Active Burst Mode operation, three conditions apply: .the feedback voltage is lower than the threshold of VFBEB(1.3V). Accordingly, the peak current sense voltage across the shunt resistor is 0.18; .the up/down counter is 7; .and a certain blanking time (tBEB). Once all of these conditions are fulfilled, the Active Burst Mode flip-flop is set and the controller enters Active Burst Mode operation. This multi-condition determination for entering Active Burst Mode operation prevents mistriggering of entering Active Burst Mode operation, so that the controller enters Active Burst Mode operation only when the output power is really low during the preset blanking time. During active burst mode, the maximum current sense voltage is reduced from 1V to 0.34V so as to reduce the conduction loss and the audible noise. At the burst mode, the FB voltage is changing like a sawtooth between 3.0 and 3.6V. The feedback voltage immediately increases if there is a high load jump. This is observed by one comparator. As the current limit is 34% during Active Burst Mode a certain load is needed so that feedback voltage can exceed VLB (4.5V). After leaving active busrt mode, maximum current can now be provided to stabilize V O. In addition, the up/down counter will be set to 1 immediately after leaving Active Burst Mode. This is helpful to decrease the output voltage undershoot 7 Protection Features Application Note 7 11 November 2011 EVALQRC-40W-ICE2QR0665 7.1 Vcc under voltage and over voltage protection During normal operation, the VCC voltage is continuously monitored. When the Vcc voltage falls below the under voltage lock out level (VCCoff) or the Vcc voltage increases up to VCCovp, the IC will enter into autorestart mode. 7.2 Foldback point protection For a quasi-resonant flyback converter, the maximum possible output power is increased when a constant current limit value is used for all the mains input voltage range. This is usually not desired as this will increase additional cost on transformer and output diode in case of output over power conditions. The internal fold back protection is implemented to adjust the V CS voltage limit according to the bus voltage. Here, the input line voltage is sensed using the current flowing out of ZC pin, during the MOSFET on-time. As the result, the maximum current limit will be lower at high input voltage and the maximum output power can be well limited versus the input voltage. 7.3 Open loop/over load protection In case of open control loop, feedback voltage is pulled up with internally block. After a fixed blanking time 30ms, the IC enters into auto restart mode. In case of secondary short-circuit or overload, regulation voltage VFB will also be pulled up, same protection is applied and IC will auto restart. 7.4 Adjustable output overvoltage protection During off-time of the power switch, the voltage at the zero-crossing pin ZC is monitored for output overvoltage detection. If the voltage is higher than the preset threshold 3.7V for a preset period 100μs, the IC is latched off. 7.5 Short winding protection The source current of the MOSFET is sensed via two shunt resistors R5 and R5A in parallel. If the voltage at the current sensing pin is higher than the preset threshold VCSSW of 1.68V during the on-time of the power switch, the IC is latched off. This constitutes a short winding protection. To avoid an accidental latch off, a spike blanking time of 190ns is integrated in the output of internal comparator. 7.6 Auto restart for over temperature protection The IC has a built-in over temperature protection function. When the controller’s temperature reaches 140 °C, the IC will shut down switch and enters into autorestart. This can protect power MOSFET from overheated.
