NCP1336 D

NCP1336A/B
Quasi-Resonant Current
Mode Controller for High
Power Universal Off-Line
Supplies
The NCP1336 hosts a high−performance circuitry aimed to
powering quasi−resonant converters. Capitalizing on a novel
valley−lockout system, the controller shifts gears and reduces the
switching frequency as the power loading becomes lighter. This
results in a stable operation despite switching events always occurring
in the drain−source valley. This system works down to the 4th valley
and toggles to a variable frequency mode beyond, ensuring an
excellent standby power performance.
The controller takes benefit of a high−voltage start−up current
source to provide a quick and lossless power−on sequence. To improve
the safety in overload situations, the controller includes an Over Power
Protection circuit which clamps the delivered power at high−line.
Safety−wise, an adjustable timer relies on the feedback voltage to
detect a fault. On version B, this fault triggers a triple−hiccup on the
VCC pin which naturally reduces the average input power drawn by
the converter. On version A, when a fault is detected, the controller is
latched−off.
Particularly well suited for adapter applications, the controller
features two latch inputs: one dedicated to Over Temperature
protection (OTP) which offers an easy means to connect a pull−down
temperature sensor like an NTC, and a second one more classical that
can be used to perform an accurate Over Voltage Protection.
Finally, a brownout pin which stops the circuit operation in presence
of a low mains condition is included.

NCP1336A/B
APPLICATION INFORMATION
NCP1336 implements a standard current−mode
architecture operating in quasi−resonant mode. Thanks to a
novel circuitry, the controller prevents valley−jumping
instability and steadily locks out in selected valley as the
power demand goes down. Once the fourth valley is reached,
the controller continues to reduce the frequency further
down, offering excellent efficiency over a wide operating
range. Thanks to a fault timer combined to an OPP circuitry,
the controller is able to efficiently limit the output power at
high−line.
• Quasi−Resonance Current−mode operation:
implementing quasi−resonance operation in peak
current−mode control, the NCP1336 optimizes the
efficiency by switching in the valley of the MOSFET
drain−source voltage. Thanks to a novel circuitry, the
controller locks−out in a selected valley and remains
locked until the output loading significantly changes.
This behavior is obtained by monitoring the feedback
voltage. When the load becomes lighter, the feedback
setpoint changes and the controller jumps into the next
valley. It can go down to the 4th valley if necessary.
Beyond this point, the controller reduces its switching
frequency by freezing the peak current setpoint. During
quasi−resonance operation, in case of very damped
valleys, a 5 ms timer adds the missing valleys.
• Frequency reduction in light−load conditions: when
the 4th valley is left, the controller reduces the
switching frequency which naturally improves the
standby power by a reduction of all switching losses.
• Overpower protection (OPP): a negative voltage
applied on OPP pin is directly added to the internal
peak current setpoint. If this voltage is created from an
auxiliary winding with flyback polarity, a direct image
of the input voltage is subtracted from the internal
clamp, thus reducing the peak current at high line. If the
OPP pin is connected to ground no compensation is
performed.
• Internal high−voltage startup switch: reaching a low
no−load standby power represents a difficult exercise
when the controller requires an external, lossy, resistor
connected to the bulk capacitor. Thanks to an internal

•
•
logic, the controller disables the high−voltage current
source after startup which no longer hampers the
consumption in no−load situations.
Internal soft−start: a soft−start precludes the main
power switch from being stressed upon start−up. Its
duration is fixed and equal to 5 ms.
OTP input: thanks to an internal current source, the
controller allows the direct connection of an NTC to
ground. As soon as the pin is brought below VOTP by
the NTC, the circuit permanently latches−off. During
soft−start, the OTP comparator is masked to allow the
voltage on pin OTP to rise above VOTP.
OVP input: thanks to an internal bias resistor to
ground, the controller allows the direct connection of a
zener diode (or a resistor divider for improved
accuracy) to a monitored voltage. As soon as the pin is
brought above VOVP, the controller latches−off.
Short−circuit protection: short−circuit and especially
over−load protections are difficult to implement when a
strong leakage inductance between auxiliary and power
windings affects the transformer (where the auxiliary
winding level does not properly collapse in presence of
an output short). Here, when the internal 0.8 V
maximum peak current limit is activated, the timer
capacitor is charged. If the fault disappears, the timer
capacitor is discharged by a current equal to the
charging current. If the timer reaches completion while
the error flag is still present, the controller stops the
pulses and goes into a latch−off phase, operating in a
low−frequency burst−mode via a triple hiccup
operation. To limit the fault output power, a
divide−by−three circuitry is installed on the VCC pin
and requires 3 times a start−up sequence before
attempting to restart on version B. As soon as the fault
disappears, the SMPS resumes operation. The latch−off
phase can also be initiated, more classically, when VCC
drops below VCCmin. On version A, the fault is latched.
Brownout: the NCP1336 includes a brownout circuit
which safely stops the controller in case the input
voltage is too low. Restart occurs via a complete startup
sequence (latch reset and soft−start).
http://onsemi.com

NCP1336A/B
APPLICATION INFORMATION
The NCP1336 has two operating modes: quasi resonant
operation and VCO operation.
The operating mode is fixed by the FB voltage:
• Quasi−resonant operation occurs for FB voltage higher
than 0.8 V (FB decreasing) or higher than 1.6 V (FB
increasing) which correspond to high output power and
medium output power.
During quasi−resonant operation, the operating valley
(1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th) is fixed by the FB voltage which is
compared internally to several voltage references
corresponding to the different valleys. There is a wide
hysteresis on each valley, allowing the controller to
adjust the output power by the current−mode control
without jumping between valleys. The peak current is
variable and is set by the FB voltage divided by 4.
• VCO operation occurs for FB voltage lower than 0.8 V
(FB decreasing) or lower than 1.6 V (FB increasing).
This corresponds to low output power.
During VCO operation, the peak current is fixed to 25%
of its maximum value and the frequency is variable.
The frequency is set by the end of charge of Ct
capacitor. This capacitor is charged with a constant
current source and the capacitor voltage is compared to
an internal threshold fixed by FB voltage. When this
capacitor voltage reaches the threshold the capacitor is
rapidly discharged down to 0 V and a new period start.
Startup
NCP1336 includes a high voltage startup circuitry that
derives current from the bulk line to charge the VCC
capacitor. When the power supply is first connected to the
mains outlet, the internal current source is biased and
charges up the VCC capacitor. When the voltage on this VCC
capacitor reaches the VCCon level, the current source turns
off, reducing the amount of power being dissipated. At this
time, the controller is only supplied by the VCC capacitor,
and the auxiliary supply should take over before VCC
collapses below VCCmin. Figure 3 shows the internal
arrangement of this structure:

Figure 3. Startup Circuitry: The Current Source Brings VCC Above 15 V and Turns Off
VCC
In some fault situations, a short−circuit can purposely
occur between VCC and GND. In high line conditions (VHV
= 370 Vdc) the current delivered by the startup device will
seriously increase the junction temperature. For instance,
since IC2 equals 3 mA (the min corresponds to the highest
TJ), the device would dissipate 370 V x 3 mA = 1.11 W. To
avoid this situation, the controller includes a novel circuitry
made of two startup levels, IC1 and IC2. At power−up, as
long as VCC is below a certain level (0.7 V typ.), the source
delivers IC1 (around 300 mA typical), then, when VCC
reaches 0.7 V, the source smoothly transitions to IC2 and
delivers its nominal value. As a result, in case of
short−circuit between VCC and GND, the power dissipation
will drop to 370 V x 300 mA = 111 mW. Figure 4 portrays
this particular behavior:

time for the first sequence. The second sequence is obtained
by changing I to 3 mA (worst case calculation) with DV =
15 V − 0.9 V = 14.1 V, which finally leads to a second startup
time of 22 mF x 14.1 V / 3 mA = 103 ms. The total startup
time becomes 103 ms + 132 ms = 235 ms. Please note that
this calculation is approximated by the presence of the knee
in the vicinity of the transition.
As soon as VCC reaches VCCon, drive pulses are delivered
on pin 9 and the auxiliary winding increases the voltage on
the VCC pin. At the same time, the controller smoothly
ramps up the peak current to Imax (0.8 V / Rsense) which is
reached after a typical 5 ms soft−start period. As soon as the
CS voltage reaches 0.8 V = ILimit1, the internal error flag
IpFlag is asserted. When the error flag is asserted, the current
source on pin 3 is activated and charges up the capacitor
connected to this pin. If the error flag is still asserted when
the timer capacitor has reached the threshold level
VtimFault, then the controller assumes that the power
supply has really undergone a fault condition and
immediately stops all pulses to enter a safe burst operation.
Figure 5 depicts the VCC evolution during a proper startup
sequence, showing the state of the error flag:
Figure 5. An error flag gets asserted as soon as the current setpoint reaches its upper limit
(0.8 V/Rsense). Here the timer lasts 50 ms, a 100 nF capacitor being connected to pin 3.
NCP1336 Operation
The valley detection is done by monitoring the voltage of
the auxiliary winding of the transformer. The typical
detection level is fixed at 55 mV. When a valley is detected,
the decimal counter is incremented. The operating valley
(1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th) is determined by the FB voltage. As FB
voltage decreases or increases, the valley comparators
toggle one after another to select the proper valley. The
activation of an “n” valley comparator disables the “n+1” or
“n−1” valley comparator (depending if FB increases or
decreases) and enables the corresponding “n” output of the
decimal counter. Figure 6 shows the internal arrangement of
the valley selection circuitry.

Figure 6. Valley Selection and VCO Internal Schematic
When an “n” valley is asserted by the valley selection
circuitry, the controller is locked in this valley until the FB
voltage decreases of 0.6 V (“n+1” valley activates) or
increases of 0.8 V (“n−1” valley activates). The peak current
adjusts to deliver the necessary output power (See Figure 7
and Figure 8). Each comparator has a hysteresis of 600 mV
that helps to stabilize the valley selection in case of
oscillations on FB voltage.

to deliver the necessary output power. This allows achieving
very low standby power consumption.
Figure 9 shows a simulation case where the output current
of a 19 V / 60 W adapter decreases from 2.5 A to 0.5 A. No
instability is seen during the valley transitions (Figures 10,
11, 12 and 13.)
As the output load decreases (FB voltage decreases), the
valleys are incremented from the first to the fourth. When
the fourth valley is reached, if FB voltage further decreases
below 0.8 V, the controller enters VCO mode as in
NCP1351.
During VCO operation, the peak current is frozen to 25%
of maximum peak current: the switching frequency expands

Time Out
integrates a Time Out function that acts as a clock for the
decimal counter. The controller thus continues its normal
operation. To avoid having a too big step in frequency, the
time out duration is set to 5.25 ms. Figures 15 and 16 detail
the time out operation.
In case of extremely damped free oscillations, the ZCD
comparator can be unable to detect the valleys.
Consequently, the decimal counter clock is in low state and
the drive pulses stops. To avoid such situation, NCP1336

VCO Mode
the capacitor voltage is compared to an internal threshold
fixed by FB voltage (see Figure 6). When this capacitor
voltage reaches the threshold, the capacitor is rapidly
discharged down to 0 V and a new period start. The internal
threshold is inversely proportional to the FB voltage. The
relationship between VFBth and VFB is: VFBth = 6.5 − (10/3)
VFB. When VFB is lower than 0.3 V, Ct voltage is clamped to
VCTmax = 5.5 V. Figure 17 shows the VCO mode at works.
VCO operation occurs for FB voltage lower than 0.8 V
(FB decreasing), or lower than 1.6 V (FB increasing). This
corresponds to low output power.
During VCO operation, the peak current is fixed to 25%
of its maximum value and the frequency is variable and
expands as the output power decreases.
The frequency is set by the end of charge of Ct capacitor.
This capacitor is charged with a constant current source and

Figure 19. Timer Operating Chronograms
There can be various events that force a fault on the
primary side controller. We can split them in different
situation, each having a particular configuration:
1. The converter regulates but the auxiliary winding
collapses: this is a typical situation linked to the
usage of a constant−current / constant−voltage
(CC−CV) type of controller. If the output current
increases, the voltage feedback loop gives up and
the current loop takes over. It means that VOUT
goes low but the feedback loop is still closed
because of the output current monitoring.
Therefore, seen from the primary side, there is no
fault. However, there are numerous charger
applications where the output voltage shall not go
below a certain limit, even if the current is
controlled. To cope with this situation, the
controller features a precise under−voltage lockout
comparator biased to a VCCmin level. When this
level is crossed, whatever the other pin conditions,
pulses are stopped and the controller enters the
safe hiccup mode, trying to re−start. Figure 20
shows how the converter will behave in this
situation. If the fault goes away, the SMPS
resumes operation.
2. In the second case, the converter operates in
regulation, but the output is severely overloaded.
However, due to the bad coupling between the
power and the auxiliary windings, the controller
VCC does not go low. The peak current is pushed
to the maximum, the error flag IpFlag is
consequently asserted and the timer starts to count.
Upon completion, all pulses are stopped and
triple−startup hiccup mode is entered for
version B. If the fault goes away, the SMPS
resumes operation (Figure 21). For version A,
when the timer finishes counting, the pulses stop
and the circuit stays latched until the user cycles
down the power supply (Figure 22).
3. Another case exists where the short−circuit makes
the auxiliary level go below VCCmin. In that case,
the timer length is truncated and all pulses are
stopped. The triple hiccup fault mode is entered
and the SMPS tries to re−start. When the fault is
removed, the SMPS resumes operation.

The recurrence in hiccup mode can easily be adjusted by either reducing the timer or increasing the VCC capacitor. Figure 24
details the various time portion a hiccup is made of:
Figure 24. The Burst Period is Ensured by the VCC Capacitor Charge / Discharge Cycle
If by design we have selected a 22 mF VCC capacitor, it
becomes easy to evaluate the burst period and its duty−cycle.
This can be done by properly identifying all time events on
Figure 8 and applying the classical formula:
The total period duration is thus the sum of all these events
which leads to thiccup = 572 ms. If tfault = 50 ms, then our
burst duty−cycle equals 50 ms / (572 ms + 50 ms) ≈ 8%,
which is good. Should the user like to further decrease or, to
the contrary, increase this duty−cycle, changing the VCC
capacitor is an easy job.

OTP
OVP
A current flows out of the OTP pin into the NTC resistor,
thus imposing a voltage on the OTP pin. When the
temperature increases, the NTC’s resistance reduces (For
example, at 110°C, RNTC = 8.8 k instead of 470 k at 25°C)
and the voltage on the OTP pin decreases until it reaches
VOTP: the comparator trips and latches−off the controller. To
reset the controller, the user must unplug and re−plug the
power supply.
During start−up and soft−start, the output of the OTP
comparator is masked to allow for the voltage on the OTP
pin to grow if a capacitor is installed across the NTC for
filtering purposes.
When VCC increases (OVP), a current starts to flow in the
zener (which much be biased externally), and the voltage on
the OVP pin starts to increase. When this voltage reaches
VOVP, the circuit immediately stops pulsing and stays
latched until the user cycles down the power supply. The
reset occurs if VCC drops below 5 V (or brownout is
detected).

By connecting the OPP pin through a resistor divider to an

decreased according to VIN, following Figure 29.

With Rupper = 470 kW and Rlower = 1 kW for instance, the
OPP function is performed with negligible power wasted in
the resistor divider.
Design Example
Let us assume we need a current setpoint reduction of 25%
at 370 Vdc, which corresponds to a sense voltage of 600 mV.
We thus need to apply 600 mV − 800 mV = −200 mV on
OPP pin to perform the expected compensation.
Knowing that the voltage that appears on the auxiliary
winding during the on−time is −Np,aux VIN, with Np,aux the
auxiliary to primary turn ratio of the transformer (Np,aux =
Naux/Np), we can simply calculate the ratio of the resistor
divider:
Brownout
The NCP1336 features a brownout pin to protect the
power supply against low input voltage condition. This pin
permanently monitors a fraction of the bulk voltage through
a voltage divider. When this image of bulk voltage is below
the VBO threshold, the controller stops switching. When the
bulk voltage comes back within safe limits, the circuit goes
through a new startup sequence including soft−start and
restarts switching (Figure 30). The hysteresis on brownout
pin is implemented with a low side current source sinking
10 mA when the brownout comparator is low (Vbulk <
VbulkON).
