DEMONSTRATION NOTE
INTRODUCTION
The CS5101 demonstration board is a multiple–output
(5.0 V @ 7.0 A; 3.3 V @ 5.0 A), isolated, 50 W power supply
that accepts the standard telecommunications input voltage
range: 36 V to 72 V. The 3.3 V auxiliary output uses the
CS5101, a secondary side post regulator (SSPR) to provide
a tightly regulated output over full load to no load
conditions.
In this demonstration board, the main output is controlled
by the CS3843 current mode PWM controller. The CS5101
regulates the 3.3 V secondary output by adjusting the duty
cycle of the auxiliary switch using leading edge modulation.
This auxiliary output voltage is independently controlled by
a local feedback loop. This method of regulation is similar
to that of a magnetic amplifier, however, the CS5101 offers
several distinct advantages.
USING THE CS5101 DEMONSTRATION BOARD
The bench power supply is connected to the input voltage
terminals, shown as VIN and PGND in Figure 1. A load is
applied to the the output voltage terminals, shown as 5.0 V,
3.3 V and SGND in Figure 1. The loads should be set within
the parameters specified in Table 2.
Five test points TP1 through TP5 have been brought out
so that waveforms at critical nodes can be easily viewed (see
Figure 1). (Please note: when monitoring secondary side
waveforms, the ground lead on the oscilloscope AC plug
should not be connected to earth ground.)
TP1 is located at the drain of the primary–side FET. A
typical waveform at TP1 is shown in Figure 2a. When
measuring this point, reference the scope ground to the
primary side ground (PGND).

Figure 1. Simplified CS5101 Demonstration Board Schematic
TP2 is located at the top side of the secondary winding.
This voltage is similar to TP1, but is scaled down three to
one, based on the transformer turns ratio. This waveform is
illustrated in Figure 2b. The notch during the on–time
portion of the waveform is generated when the CS5101 turns
on Q3 and is caused by the transformer leakage inductance,
which appears in series with the secondary winding.
TP3 is located at the source of the FET (Q3). The on–time
of Q3 is reduced compared to TP2, as shown in Figure 2d.
The leading edge of this waveform is in sync with the notch
at TP2. The leading edge modulation scheme used in the
CS5101 causes a delay in Q3 turn–on to maintain regulation
on the 3.3 V output.
TP5 is located at the ramp node used to control the
CS5101, which is shown in Figure 2e. When measuring at
this point, connect the scope probe ground to TP4.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The main output of this 50 W power supply is 5.0 V at
7.0 A. This output is generated using a forward topology DC
to DC converter, which operates using peak current mode
control. Primary side regulation is accomplished with the
industry standard CS3843. The auxiliary output supplies
3.3 V at 5.0 A. It is regulated by the CS5101, which uses
leading edge modulation to control the on–time of Q3.

The current limit threshold is set by the offsets of R17 and
R15. Under normal operating conditions, the current limit is
invoked when the DC voltage drop across the coil equals the
sum of these two offsets. Under a short circuit condition, the
output current will fold–back, since the offset associated
with R17 is negligible and the offset created by R15 remains.

Primary Side Control
The error amplifier (U3) feeds the output voltage back to
the CS3843 controller through the opto–isolator (U2). The
voltage on the secondary side of the transformer, at test point
TP2, is rectified by a Schottky pair (D6) and averaged by an
LC filter (L2 and COUTI), to create the main output (Figure
3).

Secondary Side Control
The rectified voltage at the cathode of D6 (Figure 1) is
applied to the FET (Q3). Since the average of this rectified
waveform is 5.0 V, the CS5101 must reduce the duty cycle
of Q3, which is applied to the auxiliary output filter
comprised of L1 and COUT2. This is done by delaying the
turn–on of Q3 relative to the rising edge of the waveform
shown in Figure 2c. This waveform represents point A in
Figure 1.
During the off–time of Q3, its body diode prevents the
current through Ll from becoming discontinuous. As the
current through L1 decays through zero, the body diode of
Q3 conducts negative current. When the voltage at the drain
of Q3 rises, it immediately causes the source of Q3 to track.
The source will remain elevated until the current in Ll
reaches zero, as shown in Figure 3b. The CS5101 controls
the width of the second pulse, shown in Figure 3b, to
maintain regulation.
Output current limit for this circuit is set at 9.0 A to
guarantee specified maximum output current over the
variation of DC resistance in Ll.

Lossless Current Limit
Current limit is implemented without using a current
sense resistor. The inductor’s DC resistance is used instead
(Figure 4). The average voltage across the inductor is
determined by the product of its DC resistance and the DC
current through the coil. A low–pass filter averages the AC
voltage at the switching node. This voltage is compared to
the output voltage, which is fed to the CS5101 through R16.

Efficiency Considerations
The conversion efficiency for the secondary output in this
design is calculated below The slight loss in efficiency is
primarily in the flyback diode (D5).
Power loss in the FET (Q3) occurs during conduction,
since the CS5101 ensures lossless turn–off and turn–on.
This FET loss is:
with a single pole. It has a lower crossover frequency than
the CS5101 voltage feedback loop.
Selection of the compensation components is described in
detail in the application note “Secondary Side Post
Regulator,” document number CS5101AN/D, available
through the Literature Distribution Center or via our website
at http://www.onsemi.com.

CONSIDERATION FOR CRITICAL COMPONENTS
IN THIS DESIGN
where DC is duty cycle which is about 20% for a 3.3 V
output and 48 V input.
Power loss in the CS5101 depends on quiescent current,
gate drive current, and VCC.
Magnetics
An un–gapped transformer was chosen to provide
maximum primary inductance. The turns ratio was selected
so that the duty cycle at low line (36 V) does not exceed 50%.
The circuit uses a resonant reset technique, which eliminates
the need for an auxiliary catch winding. A single secondary
winding generates both the 5.0 V and 3.3 V outputs.

(IQ QTOT fSW) VCC
(12 mA 30 nC 160 kHz) 18 V 0.302 W
Input Capacitors
Input capacitors are chosen to support maximum ripple
current. A 100 V rating for the capacitors was chosen to
ensure reliable operation at maximum input voltage (72 V).
Loss in the diode is:
PD5 VF IOUT (1 DC)
0.55 V 5.0 A (100 20)% 2.2 W
Loss in the inductor consists of conduction loss and core
loss. Inductor core loss is estimated from data supplied by
core vendor.
Output Capacitors
Output capacitors were selected based primarily on the
output ripple voltage specification. Output ripple is
determined by the effective series resistance (ESR) of the
output capacitors.

FETs
The MOSFET selection is based on a sufficient voltage
rating of 200V for Q2 and 55V for Q3. Because Q3 has a low
RDSON and switches with very low transient loss it does not
require a heat sink.
Total power loss and efficiency, for the 3.3V output, are
determined as follows:

Schottky Diodes
Schottky diodes D5 and D6 are selected for the maximum
current and voltage of the circuit. In this design they support
50 V (max) spikes. The snubber circuit formed by R29/C35
reduces these voltage spikes.
Compensating the CS5101
There are two control loops used in the demonstration
circuit. The 5.0 V output is regulated by the TL431 error
amplifier (U3) and its associated feedback components.
Compensation of this amplifier is handled using a simple RC
network (R23 and C18), which is common in current mode
control.
The 3.3 V output is controlled by the error amplifier in the
CS5101. This amplifier is compensated with a dual
pole–zero RC network (R13, C10, C11 and R22, C17),
which is common in voltage mode control. The crossover
frequency of the CS5101 controller is 5 to 10 times lower
than the main loop to ensure proper interaction between the
two control loops. The current limit circuit is compensated
Output Chokes
The output chokes were selected to support full output
load current with a 30°C temperature rise and to minimize
output voltage ripple.
CS5101 Voltage Limiting
The maximum voltage on the CS5101’s VCC input is
limited to 19 V by D4. This limits the maximum gate to
source voltage for Q3 to less than 20 V.
The complete demonstration board schematic is shown in
Figure 5, and the Bill of Materials, with part numbers,
vendors and contact numbers is contained in Table 3.
