Application Note
1-2. Selection of main components
1-2-1. MOSFET: Q1
Factors to select a MOSFET include the maximum drain-source voltage, peak current, loss due to Ron, and the package’s
maximum allowable loss.
In particular, in the case of world-wide input (AC 85V to AC264 V, etc.), the MOSFET’s ON-period becomes long when the
input voltage is low, and Ron-loss makes more heat generated. Confirm while the MOSFET is assembled in the product,
and, when necessary, use a heat-sink or similar to dissipate the heat.
In this design example, ROHM’s MOSFET R8008ANX (800V, 8A, 0.79Ω) is selected based on worldwide input and
Ippk = 3.713A.
1-2-2. Input capacitor: C3
Use Table 1-3 to select the capacitance of the input capacitor.
Since Pout=20Vx3A=60W, C1=2x60=120 → 150uF.
Table 1-3. Input Capacitor Selection Table
Input voltage (Vac)
Cin(uF)
85-264
2 x Pout(W)
180-264
1 x Pout(W)
(*) The above values are guidelines for full-wave rectification.
When selecting, also consider other specifications such as the retention-time.
The withstanding voltage of the capacitor becomes, Vac (max) × 1.41. Say for AC 264V, it is 264V × 1.41 = 372V, so this should
be 400V or more.
1-2-3.Setting resistor for changing of over current protection point:R13
When input voltage is high, ON time is short, and switching frequency increases. As a result, maximum output power
increases for constant over current limiter. For that, monitoring input voltage, IC switches CS over current voltage level when
ZT input current: Izt=1mA.
Set input voltage to AC150V→DC212V when over current protection point changes.

ZT bottom detected voltage is Vzt1=100mV(typ.)(ZT fall), Vzt2=200mV(typ)(ZT rise), and ZT OVP(min) is 4.65V
(BM1Q002FJ), so as a guide, set Vzt to 1V to 3V.

1-2-8. VCC winding surge-voltage limiting resistor: R12
Based on the transformer’s leakage inductance (Lleak), a large surge-voltage (spike noise) may occur during the instant
when the MOSFET is switched from ON to OFF. This surge-voltage is induced in the VCC winding, and as the VCC voltage
increases the IC’s VCC overvoltage protection may be triggered.
A limiting resistor R2 (approximately 5Ω to 22Ω) is inserted to reduce the surge-voltage that is induced in the VCC winding.
Confirm the rise in VCC voltage while the resistor is assembled in the product.
1-2-9. Snubber circuits: C4,D3,R6
Based on the transformer’s leakage inductance (Lleak), a large surge-voltage (spike noise) may occur during the instant
when the MOSFET is switched from ON to OFF. This surge-voltage is applied between the MOSFET’s Drain and Source, so
in the worst case damage to MOSFET might occur. RCD snubber circuits are recommended to suppress this surge-voltage.
(1) Determination of clamp voltage (Vclamp) and clamp ripple-voltage (Vripple)
Take a design-margin based on the MOSFET’s withstand voltage for the clamp voltage.
Vclamp = 800V × 0.8 = 640V
The clamp ripple-voltage (Vripple) is about 50V.

The voltage applied to C4 is 640V – 264×1.41 = 268V.
Set 400V or above with design margin.
(4) Determination of D3
Choose a fast recovery diode as the diode, with a withstanding voltage that is at or above the MOSFET’s Vds (max) value.
The surge-voltage affects not only the transformer’s leakage inductance but also the PCB substrate’s pattern.
Confirm the Vds voltage while assembled in the product, and adjust the snubber circuit as necessary.
1-2-10. Output rectification diode: D6

A 124.3V/0.7=178V → 200V component is determined with consideration for design margin.
Also, diode loss (approximate value) becomes Pd = Vf × Iout = 1V × 3A = 3W.
(Example: Rohm RFN10T2D: 200V, 10A, TO-220F package)
Use of a voltage margin of 70% or less and current of 50% or less is recommended.
Check temperature rise while assembled in the product. When necessary, reconsider the component and use a heat sink or
similar to dissipate the heat.
1-2-11. Output capacitors: C11,C12
Determine the output capacitors based on the output load‘s allowable peak-to-peak ripple voltage (ΔVpp) and ripple-current.
When the MOSFET is ON, the output diode is OFF. At that time, current is supplied to the load from the output capacitors.
When the MOSFET is OFF, the output diode is ON. At that time, the output capacitors are charged and a load current is also
supplied.

Application Note
1-2-12. MOSFET gate circuits: R7,R8,D4
The MOSFET’s gate circuits affect the MOSFET’s loss and generate noise. The Switching speed for turn-on is adjusted
using R7+R8, and for turn-off is adjusted using R7, via the drawing diode D4.
(Example: R7: 10Ω/ 0.25W, R8: 150Ω, D4: SBD 60V, 1A)
In the case of Quasi-Resonant converters, switching-loss basically does not occur during turn-on, but occurs predominantly
during turn-off. To reduce switching-loss when turned off, turn-off speed can be increased by reducing R7 value, but sharp
changes in current will occur, which increases the switching-noise. Since there is a trade-off between loss (heat
generation) and noise, measure the MOSFET’s temperature rise and noise while it is assembled in the product, and adjust it
as necessary.
Also, since a pulse current flows to R7, check the pulse resistance of the resistors being used.
