Introduction
Description of the Design Solution
When designing adapters, the important defining
regulations for efficiency and no load power requirements
are the ENERGY STAR® specifications. With the release of
the EPS 2.0 standard, the light load input power
consumption and the standby power consumption have
became more important, reflecting more accurately the
actual usage of a laptop adapter which spends a considerable
amount of its time with no-load or a minimal load (laptop in
sleep mode) attached.
When focusing on the light load efficiency of adapter
design, the key losses need to be identified. Switching losses
play a major role in determining the light load efficiency, and
are directly linked to the control methodology. These losses
are caused by the energy stored in the sum of all capacitances
at the drain node (MOSFET output capacitance, stray
capacitance of the transformer and other parasitic
capacitances on PCB) together with the gate charge losses
associated with driving the MOSFET. These are
proportional to the switching frequency, hence, reducing the
switching frequency reduces the losses and improves the
efficiency. One of the best methods to achieve optimal
balance between transformer design and light load
efficiency is to have the switching frequency vary as
a function of load. This is implemented in the NCP1237/38
family of PWM controllers as a frequency foldback
function, thereby lowering the frequency at lighter loads.
The solution was implemented utilizing flyback topology,
giving the advantage of a dense power design. The design
operates in both CCM (Continuous Conduction Mode) and
DCM (Discontinuous Conduction Mode), allowing it to
accept a wide universal input voltage range.
The CCM operation provides desired full load
performance with good efficiency and low ripple of primary
current. The DCM operation permits an increase of
efficiency under the light load conditions, by decreasing the
switching losses. The device switches at 65 kHz which
represents a good trade-off between switching losses and
magnetics size.
For meeting the design requirements, the NCP1237 fixed
frequency controller was selected. This device is housed in
a SOIC 7 lead that includes multiple features including input
ac line sensing.
The electrical schematic of the adapter board appears on
Figure 1.
The adapter consists of several important sections.
The first is an input EMI filter to reduce the conducted EMI
to the ac line at the input of the adapter. The EMI filter is
formed by common-mode inductor L1, differential-mode
inductor L2 and capacitors CX1−CX4. The varistor R12 is
used protect the adapter against the line overvoltage peaks
and NTC R11 is used to limit the bulk capacitor surge
current. The resistors RD1, RD2 and RD3 are used for
discharging the X capacitors while the adapter unplugged
from the power line.
The next block is the rectifier with bulk capacitor. It is
important to note that the HV pin of the controller is
connected to the ac side of the rectifier to decrease average
power consumed by high voltage sensing circuitry.
The main power stage of the flyback converter utilizes the
NDF06N60ZG MOSFET from ON Semiconductor along
with a custom designed transformer TR1, described later.
Secondary rectification is provided by a low drop Schottky
diode MBRF20H150 from ON Semiconductor. A simple
RC snubber across the secondary rectifier damps any high
frequency ringing caused the unclamped leakage inductance
at secondary side of the transformer.

The programmable reference TL431 provides the output
voltage regulation. The TL431 output is coupled via the
optocoupler to the controller a NCP1237B 65 kHz version.
The last stage of the adapter is the output filter consisting of
primary filter capacitors COUT1 and COUT2 and
secondary filter made up of L3 and COUT3.
The circuit is described in detail next, starting with the
controller.
Features of NCP1237/38/87/88 Family
Usage of the current mode PWM controllers from
NCP1237/38/87/88 family brings an advantage in
decreasing the switching frequency under light load
conditions. This feature is called frequency foldback and
significantly helps to reduce the switching losses. Other
features include:
• Current-mode Control: Cycle by cycle primary
current sensing helps to prevent any significant
overcurrent conditions that would cause transformer
core saturation and result in power supply failure.
• Dynamic Self-supply: This ensures the voltage supply
for the IC in applications where the output voltage
varies significantly during operation, e.g. during startup
of the power supply or overload conditions. The DSS
also supplies the IC during a latched state and when
switching operation is halted. The dynamic self-supply
operates by controlling the charging of the capacitor at
VCC pin via a built-in high voltage current source.
To prevent any damage or overheating of the controller
in case of short in VCC circuitry, the high voltage
startup current is limited when the VCC is below 0.6 V.
• High Voltage Sensing: The device allows direct
high-voltage sensing up to 500 V to enable features
such as brown-out protection and input OVP without
using extra pins.
• Brown-out and Line Overvoltage Protection:
If the peak voltage at the HV pin VHV is higher than
112 V (typical – see VHV(start) spec in the datasheet)
and if the VCC is high enough, the device will start
operating. The device runs and produces the DRV
pulses if the HV pin voltage is in the range of VHV(stop)
(brownout protection stop level) and VHV(OV1)
(HV overvoltage protection threshold). There is
a blanking filter, (with duration of 250 ms) for the HV
overvoltage protection to blank the short peaks at the
HV input, for example during surge test. Similarly,
for allowing the converter to ride through a line
drop-out, there is a 61 ms (typ) timer before the
brown-out protection is activated.

• Skip Mode with Soft-skip Feature: This burst mode is
Over-current Protections: The devices NCP1237/87
offer a transient (2nd level) overcurrent protection
which is activated when the sensed voltage at CS pin
stays above the transient overcurrent protection
threshold of 0.5 V (typ) for a time longer than the
transient peak power timer duration time (typ 156 ms).
It allows using the NCP1237/87 with the peak power
protection in the printer adapters which can deliver 2
times higher peak power than the maximum output
power from the thermal loading point of view.
The whole family of controllers NCP1237/38/87/88
offers the over-current protection which is activated
when the voltage at CS pin is above an internal
threshold of 0.7 V (typ) for a time longer than over
current fault timer duration time (typ 78 ms).
Current Stop Protection: A special additional current
stop protection senses the voltage at the current sensing
pin. If this voltage is higher than 150% of the
maximum internal current set point, then the protection
fault mode is immediately activated. This feature
protects application against the winding short-circuit or
the shorts at the output of the application.
Overpower Compensation: The primary peak current
value varies with the value of the input voltage.
The reason is the propagation delay between the
internal current set point detection and the power
MOSFET switch off and dependence of the primary
current slope on the input voltage. To eliminate this
phenomenon, the peak voltage at HV pin is sensed and
converted into a current flowing out of the CS pin.
By the external resistor ROPP a voltage offset to Vsense
voltage is created providing the overpower
compensation as a result.
Built-in Internal Slope Compensation: To avoid the
sub harmonic oscillations during the CCM operation
with the duty ratio D higher than 50%, internal slope
compensation is applied.
Latch Input: The LATCH pin feature allows the
additional external OVP and OTP protections. If this
pin is between 0.8 V and 2.5 V (when not connected,
it is at 1.2 V), the output drive pulses are active.
An external NTC can be used to pull it below 0.8 V for
OTP and a Zener diode to the bias voltage can be used
to detect output OTP condition and shut down the
pulses. A decoupling capacitor C1 can be used to filter
an induced noise to node where the latch pin is
connected. A precharge current INTC(SSTART) is applied
to the C1 during the soft-start period to charge the
decoupling capacitor and avoid false triggering of the
OTP protection. Maximum recommended value of C1
is 325 nF. It is important to note that during soft-start
period the OTP is not activated.
used under the no load conditions or light load
conditions to increase the total efficiency and no load
input power. The Soft-skip feature softens the edges of
the bursts of pulses in skip mode to decrease the level
of possible acoustic noise.
Design of the Power Stage

on Figure 2.

The maximum input average current, Iin,avg , is calculated
next from the input power and the minimum average voltage
at the bulk capacitor Vbulk,avg,min . The value of Vbulk,avg,min
drives the choice of bulk capacitor based on the rectified
peak of the lowest line voltage (Vpeak ). The lower value of
Vbulk,avg,min leads to higher currents and puts more burden
on the power stage design. Higher value of Vbulk,avg,min
requires larger bulk capacitance.

If kC is too high, then Vclamp is high too and the voltage
peak at drain node is high as well, but the leakage inductance
reset time is fast. If kC is too low, the leakage inductance reset
is longer and more energy is dissipated. The transformer
turns ratio can be calculated as in following equation
(the VDSmax derating factor used in the equation is 0.85,
it may vary based on internal design guidelines).

Figure 4. Drain Voltage Waveform of Q1
When the switching device Q1 is switched on its drain to
source voltage is close to 0 V. When Q1 is switched off, the
peak voltage VDS,peak between the drain and source of Q1
appears. VDS,peak consists of bulk voltage Vbulk , reflected
voltage Vr, and leakage inductance spike voltage Vleak .
However, in order to limit this voltage, a clamp circuit is
applied that limits the VDS,peak value to sum of Vbulk and
Vclamp (plus any overshoot that may appear due to slow
reaction of the clamping circuit – typically 20 V for off-line
applications). In order for the flyback circuit to function,

The most important design step is to choose the mode of
operation DCM or CCM. The CCM mode converter has an
advantage in lower conduction losses and lower ac ripple at
all components. The DCM mode converter has advantage in
smaller primary inductance of the transformer, natural
commutation of the secondary rectifier and no presence of
the right half plane zero. It means that the design of the
feedback loop compensation is simpler using the DCM.
In this application, at low line and full load, CCM operation
is chosen, but the converter is allowed to go into DCM at
higher line and lighter load conditions.

Energy of the leakage magnetic field in the core is
physically represented by the current in transformer
winding. When the primary switch turns off the current in
the Lprim,leak would need a path to flow and it is required to
reset this leakage inductance. In simplest (low power, low
cost) solutions the energy is dissipated via transient voltage
suppressor (TVS) or RCD clamp, which creates additional
losses, described by following formula.
Knowing the primary current ripple DI, the inductance of
transformer primary winding Lprim can be designed using
Equation 17. Since these calculations are for full power
design, the typical switching frequency should be used even
if the frequency is folded back during light load.

Next important parameters for the power switch selection
are the total gate and drain capacitances which play a role in

To decrease this type of losses, the Lprim,leak can be
decreased by proper transformer selection. Choosing the
flyback controller with frequency foldback is another way
to decrease the switching losses under the light load
conditions.
The power switch Q1 is selected by the practical
recommendation to have maximum conduction losses in the
switching device at 2.5% of the maximum output power.
This practical recommendation fulfills low parasitic
capacitance and cost effectiveness requirements. Following
formula describes this recommendation
Once the primary inductance Lprim is designed,
the primary transformer can be selected. This can be either
a custom design or an off-the-shelf component that closely
matches the key specifications derived here. It is important
to know the currents through the transformer winding in
either case.
Following formulas are useful for the primary rms current

The coupling coefficient k represents the physical reality
that not all the magnetic flux is shared between the primary
and secondary windings of the transformer. Some unshared
magnetic flux exists on either side − this flux is called
leakage flux. The behavior of a real transformer can by

modeled by leakage inductance. The primary and secondary

The switching losses also depend on the square of the
turn-off voltage on the drain node. Lowering this voltage
reduces the losses. The actual value of CDRAIN is non-linear
and decreases with the voltage, hence the actual switching
losses are lower than predicted by the above equation.
The sense resistor is designed for the maximum peak
current requirement. The voltage drop across the current
sensing resistor should reach the maximum internal current
set point VILIM (0.7 V in this case) at slightly above the
maximum peak current Ipeak . As shown in the equation
below, there is a 10% margin for transformer primary
inductance Lprim tolerance and other parameters’ production
tolerances to allow whole adapter deliver maximum power
under the low line full load conditions.

The slope compensation is internally set in the NCP1237
family, but in rare cases, additional slope compensation is
needed to prevent subharmonic oscillations in CCM mode
operating above 50% duty cycle. See the Reference 3 for the
detailed description and modeling of ramp compensation
techniques.
Without the overpower compensation, the peak current
Ipeak,max consists of the components given by the internal
current setpoint VILIMIT and the effect of the propagation
delay tPROP, between the peak current detection and
switching off the power switch. The second component
strongly depends on the bulk voltage Vbulk .

In reality, there will be additional stress due to parasitic
ringing that can be addressed by snubbers. The diode
average current is the maximum output dc current Iout .
The selected diode has to have a low forward drop to achieve
high efficiency and fast and soft recovery for low radiated
EMI. It is important to check if the selected diode can
withstand the secondary peak current Isec,peak .
The output capacitor design is dictated by the output
voltage ripple specification. While there are two
contributors to this ripple, the capacitive and the resistive
element of the capacitor, in most designs, the resistive
element (represented by the ESR of the capacitance)
dominates by an order of magnitude. The required ESR for
a given output ripple is given by:

By implementing the overpower compensation, built in
the NCP1237/38/87/88 family, the increase of the primary
peak current value is compensated by additional voltage
offset depending on Vbulk . This offset is created by the
internal high voltage sensing circuitry. The internal system
is characterized by two parameters: the transconductance
gOPP from HV pin voltage to CS pin output current and
minimum voltage Voff . The overpower compensation is
provided only if the bulk voltage, present on HV pin, is
higher than Voff . An external dedicated resistor ROPP is used
to set the amount of over power compensation. There is a
voltage offset created by the resistor ROPP added to Vsense
creating the overpower compensation as a result. The
current sourced out of the CS pin is in the direct proportion
to the bulk voltage present on the HV pin of the device.

The RCD clamp works by absorbing the leakage
inductance energy into the RCD clamp once the drain
voltage exceeds the clamp capacitor voltage. The use of a
relatively large capacitor keeps the voltage constant over a
switching cycle. The resistor of the RCD clamp always
dissipates power. Even with very little load on the converter,
the capacitor can be charged up to the voltage reflected from
the secondary of the converter Vr. As the load is increased,
more energy will flow into the capacitor and the voltage will
rise by an additional amount, Vleak , above the ideal square
wave flyback voltage.
In typical designs, the value of ratio kC is chosen to be 1.5
to obtain fast and proper reset of the leakage inductance (see
Equation 5 for the kC definition) In this case, the dissipation
is equal to 3 times the stored energy in the leakage
inductance. This is a conservative estimate, based on the
assumption that all the leakage energy flows into the TVS.
It does not account for lossy discharge of the inductor, for
stray capacitance, and for losses in the clamping diode. In
reality, the design will have less loss in the clamp circuit than
anticipated due to these effects.
The resistor is the element that is crucial in determining
the peak voltage Vclamp and it should be selected using the
following equation:
Main need of the overpower compensation is for
stabilizing the peak current. It works very well in the DCM
mode of operation, because the output power Pout depends

The interpretation of this formula is that in the CCM it is

output power over a wide range of input voltage with this
simple compensating system.
The overpower compensation affects the 2nd level over
current protection as well. The protection activation limit is
shifted by the offset voltage present across overpower

The capacitor in the RCD clamp Cclamp needs to be large
enough to keep a relatively constant voltage while absorbing
the leakage energy. Apart from this consideration, its value
is not critical, and will not affect the peak voltage when the
snubber is working properly. For efficiency optimization in
frequency foldback, the lowest switching frequency needs
to be considered.

A transient voltage suppressor (TVS) can be used for the
clamping of the drain voltage excursion when the power
switch Q1 is turned off. Select the required TVS based on the
Vclamp voltage and check the power dissipation Pclamp as per
the equation below. This solution has an advantage during
the light load condition. The TVS doesn’t discharge the
clamping capacitor in the clamp and the converter does not
recharge it from voltage lower than the reflected voltage.
This solution allows reaching better efficiency at light load
conditions, but has a bad radiated EMI signature due
excessive ringing after the transformer leakage inductance
reset. This excessive ringing is caused by the residual energy
in the clamping circuitry.

The recommended diode for the RCD clamp is 1N4007.
Its long recovery time naturally damps the ringing caused by
residual energy stored in leakage inductance after its reset.
But there is a need to pay attention to usage of the 1N4007
in CCM under high duty ratio conditions. There is
a possibility of cross-conduction that can damage the
1N4007 due to the long reverse recovery time. The 1N4007
will be destroyed at first and subsequently the whole
application will fail.

The Rclamp resistor value in RCD clamp needs to be
optimized for the no load consumption and losses in slow
clamping diode D2. The optimization lies in measuring the
clamping voltage across the clamping capacitor Cclamp
under the full load conditions and increasing the Rclamp
resistor value, if the Vclamp is too low.
There is a difference in ringing (and subsequently in
radiated EMI) depending on usage of TVS clamp or the
RCD clamp with the “slow” 1N4007. Figures 7 and 8 show
the difference in ringing voltages between the two
implementations, under the same input voltage and load
conditions. The ringing peak to peak voltage is 226 V in case
of use the TVS. This high amplitude of ringing is decreased
by the usage of RCD clamp, where the ringing peak-to-peak
voltage is only 106 V. This approach significantly reduces
the EMI noise in frequency band from 1 to 10 MHz.
The excessive ringing using the TVS was discussed
before and it is caused by the residual energy in clamping
circuitry, no presence of resistive damping element and the
fast turning off time of the TVS. It is important to note that
the measurement was performed with the 160 V TVS
P6KE160ARLG from ON Semiconductor and the RCD
clamp was originally designed for clamping voltage
Vclamp = 115 V. This difference is observable as a higher
drain to source peak voltage VDS,peak = 485V when the TVS
is used in clamping circuitry compared to drain to source
peak voltage of 440V in case of the RCD clamp usage.

Voltage is Clamped by RCD Clamp at Full Load
(3.5 A) and 230 V/50 Hz Input
The RC snubber across the secondary rectifying diode
helps to damp the ringing. The transformer secondary
leakage inductance may couple with the capacitance Cd of
the output rectifier diode in reverse direction to cause
ringing when the diode turns off. The transformer secondary
leakage inductance Lsec,leak and the parasitic capacitance Cd
of the rectifier determine this resonant frequency. The
ringing may generate significant radiated and conducted
EMI noise. There is typically very little loss in this resonant
circuit so the network will cause many cycles of ringing after
the spike. The ringing can therefore affect the current sense
signal used by the controller in a flyback configuration. The
overshoot caused by this ringing may exceed the diode
voltage rating and cause damage to the diode.
The used RC snubber, however, will absorb energy during
each voltage transition and can reduce efficiency. It is
recommended to design the Rsnubber the same as the
characteristic impedance of the ringing circuitry to damp the
oscillations.

The RC time constant of the snubber should be small
compared to the switching period but long compared to the
voltage rise time. The snubber capacitance Csnubber must be
larger than the parasitic resonance capacitance, but small
enough to minimize dissipation in the snubber resistor. The
snubber capacitance is generally chosen to be at least 3 to 4
times the value of the parasitic resonant capacitor.

It is very important to pay attention to the parasitics in the
components used in the snubber since these may render the
snubber ineffective.
It is a tricky thing to obtain the parasitic capacitance Cd of
the secondary rectifier, because it is reverse voltage
dependant, nonlinear and can differ from part to part. Hence,
the formula above can be treated as the 1st iteration of the
design and further optimization can be done empirically for
the best damping of the ringing.
voltage was chosen 90 V, which does not correspond with
the bulk capacitor design, but ensures an advance in the
increasing of the power factor under low line conditions and
high level of the output loading.

The converter has been designed for the minimum voltage
of 90 V at bulk capacitor. If the voltage across the bulk
capacitor drops below the 90 V, the maximum output power
cannot be delivered as the peak current limit may be crossed.
On the other hand, the advantage of this solution lies in
decreasing of instantaneous input power of converter with
decreasing of the instantaneous value of input voltage. It is
the typical behavior of the power factor correction stages.
The behavior as PFC for the low input line and high load
condition was reached by the selection of the low value of
the bulk capacitor. This solution is a cost effective as well.
The energy for the output is provided from the output
capacitor tank, while the Vbulk voltage is low and the
converter power stage is not able to provide the required
power level.

Note that the clamp capacitor is designed for lowest
switching frequency under the frequency foldback.
Because a slow and soft diode 1N4007 was used in RCD
clamp, some power was lost in the diode and the components
with calculated values behave like preload. After the
empirical optimization the values were set to
Rclamp = 165 kW and Cclamp = 5.6 nF. The optimization lies
in setting the proper clamp voltage Vclamp at full load
conditions. The clamping capacitor is set under the light load
conditions for it not to be fully discharged.

The efficiency and no-load input power consumption
were measured by the YOKOGAWA WT210 wattmeter.
However, a significant error appeared during the no-load
input power measurement due to high input reactive power
of the input EMC filter (5−8 VAR dependent on the ac line
voltage). This effect caused an error from 50% to 100% at
read value of no load input power.
To overcome this issue, no load consumption was
measured by the dc method as a dc current between the ac
rectifier and the bulk capacitor. The measurement was done
2 minutes after switching on the power supply to eliminate
the influence of the bulk capacitor polarization current. The
consumption of the X capacitor discharge resistors RD1,
RD2 and RD3 was added numerically to measured values.
For the dc measurement 162.6 V was set as a peak value
corresponding to 115 V line voltage and 325.3 V as a peak
value for 230 V line voltage.
The connected ammeter and whole application should be
floating to avoid any additional ground currents. It is
recommended to use battery supplied ammeter or classical
electromechanical dc ammeter system.

activated by the reaching the VCS(tran) limit, because there
exists an excessive bulk capacitor ripple under the low line
conditions. This behavior can be improved by selection of
bulk capacitor with higher capacitance value.

It is interesting to observe the “waves” in the efficiency
curves in range from 5% to 40% of loading. These waves are
caused by different turning on voltages at drain node, if the
controller switches in the valley of the drain voltage in the
DCM mode the efficiency of the adapter is higher and if the
controller switches in the peak the total efficiency decreases.
Following figures demonstrate the operation of the

Results Summary
The family of controllers NCP1237/38/87/88 allows
building of cost effective, easy-to-design and low no load
input power consumption power supplies. The 2nd level
overcurrent protection feature offers the advantage of
designing power supplies whose peak output power can be
almost 2 times higher than the maximum continuous output
power. For example it allows the design of cheap
transformers, but at peak power loading condition,
the efficiency will decrease due the conduction losses of
flyback stage transformer.
The designed wide input range adapter fulfils the
requirement of having no load input power lower than
100 mW over the wide input voltage range. While the
complete design of the adapter must be oriented to gain the
low no load input power, the controller facilitates this result
by frequency foldback feature. The frequency foldback
starts at load current lower than 1.3 A (34% of the maximum
power) in this design. The frequency foldback finishes at
0.23 A (6% of the maximum power ) in case of high line
condition (230 V/50 Hz) or at 0.25 A in case of low line
condition (115 V/60 Hz). The controller enters the skip
mode feature if the loading current of the adapter is lower
than 0.21 A in case of high line condition (230 V/50 Hz) or
0.18 A in case of low line condition (115 V/60 Hz). This
loading level is approximately 5.5% of the maximum output
power. Measured efficiency at 1.5% of output power is
higher than 70%.
The obtained average efficiency is 85.9% for the low line
condition (115 V/60 Hz) and 85.2% at high line conditions
(230 V/50 Hz) for this adapter design. There is still room for
the efficiency optimization e.g. by reducing losses across the
secondary rectifying diode, the total Q1 losses or reducing
the losses by different design of the transformer. The goal of
this design is to show the low no load input power solution
which is cost effective as well.
