INTRODUCTION
Power converters using secondary side controllers
provide better transient response, higher efficiency and
usually require less components than their primary side
referenced counterparts. However, secondary side
controllers require a primary side referenced bias supply to
start operation. After start-up, the controller power can be
provided from the secondary side.
The NCP1030 incorporates in a single IC all the active
power, control logic and protection circuitry required for
implementing, with a minimum of external components, a
highly integrated isolated bias supply. The features included
in the NCP1030 can result in a footprint area reduction by up
to 91% compared to a solution implemented using discrete
components.
The NCP1030 Power Switch Circuit is rated at 200 V,
making it ideal for 48 V Telecom and 42 V automotive
applications. In addition, this IC can operate from an
existing 12 V supply. The NCP1030 includes an extensive
set of features including:
• On Board Power Switch: Eliminates the need for an
external switch. As the Power Switch characteristics
are well known the gate drive is tailored to control
switching transitions and help reduce electromagnetic
interference (EMI).
• An Internal Start-up Regulator: Provides power to
the NCP1030 during start-up. After start-up, the
regulator is disabled, thus reducing power consumption.
The regulator can be powered directly from the input
line.
• Internal Error Amplifier: Allows the implementation
of an isolated supply using primary side regulation
without the need for an optocoupler.
• Internal Cycle by Cycle Current Limit: Eliminates
the need for external sensing components. The
programmed current limit is 500 mA.

Circuit: Provides better current limit control compared
to a fixed blanking period. The active LEB circuit
masks the current signal during the Power Switch turn
ON transition.
Individual Line Undervoltage and Overvoltage
(UV/OV) Detectors with Hysteresis: Eliminate the
need for external supervisory function. The UV/OV
detectors can be disabled if not needed.
Single Capacitor Oscillator: Eliminates traditional
timing resistor. Oscillator is optimized for operation up
to 1.0 MHz.
Internal $2% Voltage Reference: Eliminates the
need for an external bypass capacitor.
Thermal Shutdown Circuit: Protects the device in the
event the maximum junction temperature is exceeded.

where, VƒD1 is the forward voltage drop across D1 and
RDS(on) is the Power Switch on resistance. Equation 2
relates the on-time volt-second product to the reset
volt-second product and adds a 20% dead time to insure the
converter operates in discontinuous mode. Solving
Equation 2 assuming a 0.5 V drop across D1,
A dual output Flyback converter is shown in Figure 1.

Current flows in the primary side when the Power Switch,
M1, is ON. The transformer primary side dot end becomes
positive with respect to the non-dot end. While the Power
Switch is ON, energy is stored in the transformer and D1 and
D2 are reverse biased. When M1 turns OFF, the transformer
winding polarities are reversed, forward biasing D1 and D2.
Energy is transferred to the secondary outputs during this
period. If the secondary current decays to zero before the
switch turns ON again, the converter operates in
discontinuous mode. Otherwise, it operates in continuous
mode.
The converter regulates the output by sampling the output
voltage and comparing it to a reference voltage. A signal
proportional to their difference is generated and used to
adjust the ON time of M1 such that the voltage difference is
reduced.
The Snubber limits the voltage across the Power Switch
and helps reduce noise.

AUXILIARY SUPPLY REGULATOR
NCP1030
The auxiliary supply (OUTPUT 2) provides a means to
regulate the main output (OUTPUT 1). In addition, the
auxiliary winding disables the internal start-up circuit and
provides power to the NCP1030 after initial power up. The
same turns ratio and rectification diode used for the main
output are used for the auxiliary winding to improve voltage
tracking between the outputs.
The auxiliary winding capacitor, CCC, is selected such
that a voltage greater than 7.5 V is maintained on the VCC pin
while the output reaches regulation. The time the output
reaches regulation is measured at 0.8 ms. Once the start-up
time is known, CCC is calculated using Equation 8.

The open loop frequency response of the system (from A
to B) is approximated by the modulator gain and the output
network frequency response. Additional high frequency
components are present but are not considered for our
analysis as they are far beyond the crossover frequency. The
modulator gain, GMOD, is approximated by Equation 9.

The output network block is comprised of Cout, RESR and

by Equation 10.
(eq. 8)
where, ICC includes the NCP1030 bias current (ICC3) and
any additional current supplied by CCC. Assuming an ICC3
of 3.0 mA and a 2.0 mA bias current for the feedback
sensing resistors, CCC is calculated at 1.6 mF. The VCC
capacitor is set at 2.2 mF. Please note that if CCC is increased
to match Cout, the transient response of the converter will
suffer. This is because the capacitance to current ratio of the
auxiliary winding is significantly greater then the output
winding, taking it longer for CCC to follow Cout during a
transient condition.

The total open loop frequency response is the product of
Equations 9 and 10. Please note that Cout(eq) includes CCC
and Cout reflected to the auxiliary winding by the
transformer turns ratio. As the same turns ratio is used for
both the auxiliary and output windings, Cout adds directly to
CCC. The output network has one zero and one pole and they
are given by Equations 11 and 12, respectively.
FEEDBACK LOOP
fz1 +
If the feedback loop is not stable, the converter will
oscillate. To insure the loop is stable, the open loop
frequency response needs to cross 0 dB at a slope of
-20 dB/dec, with a phase margin above 45° under all line
and load conditions. This is accomplished by shaping the
loop response using the internal error amplifier (EA).
The block diagram shown in Figure 2 is used to evaluate
the converter open loop response.

The modulator gain response depends on Vin. Two
extreme conditions, both minimum Rout and input voltage
(GMOD1) as well as both maximum Rout and input voltage
(GMOD2) are considered for frequency compensation. In
order to facilitate frequency compensation, Cout is increased
to 22 mF. The simulated open loop frequency responses for
GMOD1 and GMOD2 are shown in Figures 3 and 4,
respectively.

set at 10 W to avoid disrupting the DC bias point.

The EA poles and zero locations are selected to achieve
the desired crossover frequency, fCO. A system crossover
frequency of 10 kHz is selected for GMOD1. As the
modulator gain depends on the input voltage, a higher fCO
is obtained for the maximum input voltage condition with
equivalent output load.
The selection of the compensation components begins by
noting that the voltage on the VFB pin should be equal to
2.5 V (VREF) when the output is in regulation (12 V). If the

The NCP1030 eliminates the need for additional
supervisory circuitry by incorporating individual under and
overvoltage detectors with hysteresis. The controller is
enabled if the voltage on the UV pin is above 2.5 V and the
voltage on the OV pin is below 2.5 V. The UV/OV detectors

Switching regulators can be noisy! However, with careful
layout, noise is reduced. A few things to remember are:
1. Keep switching elements and high current traces
away from the controller and sensitive nodes.
2. Keep trace lengths to a minimum, especially
important for high current paths and timing
components.
3. Use wide traces for high current paths.
4. Place bypass capacitors close to the components.
5. Use a ground plane if possible or a single point
ground system.
The bias supply is built using a single layer FR4, board.
The board size is 2.0 in x 3.5 in. The complete circuit
schematic is shown in Figure 12 and an actual size picture
of the board is shown in Figure 13. The Bill of Material is
listed in Table 4.
An L-C filter at the converter input is used to reduce EMI.
The input L-C filter reduces noise and provides a solid input
voltage to the converter. The filter is shown in Figure 10.
Capacitor C10 is used for common mode noise reduction.

The final step in our design includes validation and test of
the bias supply. Before powering the supply, it should be
inspected for potential problems. A few suggestions
include:
1. Verify all connections. Check for shorts and opens,
especially on the input and output terminals.
2. Verify component values.
3. Slowly increase the input voltage while
monitoring the input current. If the input current
exceeds 10 mA, repeat steps 1 to 3.
4. Once the input voltage reaches 25 V, measure the
voltage on critical nodes. The NCP1030 start-up
regulator should be ON. If the voltages are not
correct, remove power and repeat steps 1 to 3.
5. Increase the input voltage to 36 V. Measure the
output voltage. If it is not approximately 12 V,
repeat steps 1 to 3.
6. Increase the input voltage above 80 V. The output
should turn OFF.
Please be careful when probing and testing the converter.
High voltage may be present. Exercise CAUTION!
Once the converter functionality is verified, the board
performance is evaluated and compared to our original
goals. The evaluation criteria includes:
1. Open loop frequency response.
2. Efficiency.
3. Line and load regulation.
4. Step load response.
5. Start-up response.
The open loop response is measured injecting an AC
signal across R6 using a network analyzer as shown in
Figure 14.
