Highly Integrated Quasi-Resonant PWM Controller
Abstract
This application note describes a detailed design strategy for
higher-power conversion efficiency and better EMI using a
Quasi-Resonant PWM controller compared to the
conventional, hard-switched converter with a fixed
switching frequency. Based on the proposed design
guideline, a design example with detailed parameters
demonstrates the performance of the controller.
range line voltage and reduces switching loss to minimize
switching voltage on drain of the power MOSFET.
Introduction
FAN6300/A/H controller provides many protection
functions. Pulse-by-pulse current limiting ensures the fixed
peak current limit level, even when short-circuit occurs.
Once an open-circuit failure occurs in the feedback loop, the
internal protection circuit disables PWM output
immediately. As long as VDD drops below the turn-off
threshold voltage, the controller also disables the PWM
output. The gate output is clamped at 18V to protect the
power MOS from high gate-source voltage conditions. The
minimum tOFF time limit prevents the system frequency from
being too high. If the DET pin reaches OVP level, internal
OTP is triggered, and the power system enters latch-mode
until AC power is removed.
The highly integrated FAN6300/A/H PWM controller
provides several features to enhance the performance of
flyback converters. FAN6300/A are applied on QuasiResonant flyback converter where maximum operating
frequency is below 100kHz and FAN6300H is suitable for
high frequency operation that is around 190kHz. A built-in
High Voltage (HV) startup circuit can provide more startup
current to reduce the startup time of the controller. Once the
VDD voltage exceeds the turn-on threshold voltage, the HV
startup function is disabled immediately to reduce power
consumption. An internal valley voltage detector ensures
power system operates in quasi-resonant operation in wide-

To minimize standby power consumption and improve lightload efficiency, a proprietary green-mode function provides
off-time modulation to decrease switching frequency and
perform extended valley voltage switching to keep to a
minimum switching voltage.

To determine the primary-side inductance (LP), the

The minimum switching frequency (fs,min): The
maximum average input current occurs at the
minimum input voltage and full-load condition.
Meanwhile, the switching frequency is at minimum
value during QR operation.
ƒ
The falling time of the MOSFET drain voltage (tf):
As shown in Figure 4, the falling time of MOSFET
drain voltage is half of the resonant period of the
MOSFET effective output capacitance and primaryside inductance. If a resonant capacitor is added to be
paralleled with Coss, tf can be increased and EMI can
be reduced. However, this forces a switching loss
increase. The typical value of tf for NB adaptor
application is about 0.5~1μs.
When designing the transformer, consider the maximum
flux density swing in normal operation (Bmax). The
maximum flux density swing in normal operation is
related to the hysteresis loss in the core, while the
maximum flux density in transient is related to the core
saturation.

APPLICATION NOTE
When the supply current is drawn from the transformer, it
draws a leakage current of about 1μA for the HV pin. The
maximum power dissipation of the RHV is:
Determine the Startup Circuitry
When the power is turned on, the internal current
(typically 1.2mA) charges the capacitor C1 through a
forward diode D2 and a startup resistor RHV. During the
startup sequence, the VAC from the AC terminal provides a
startup current of about 1.2mA and charges the capacitor
C1. RHV and D2 series connections can be directly
connected by VAC to the HV pin. As the VDD pin reaches
the turn-on threshold voltage VDD-ON, the FAN6300/A/H
activates and signals the MOSFET. The HV startup circuit
switches off and D1 is turned on when the energy of the
main transformer is delivered to secondary and auxiliary
winding.

The turn-on and turn-off threshold voltage are internally
fixed at 16V and 10V. During startup, C1 must be charged
to 16V to enable the IC. The capacitor continues to supply
the VDD until the energy can be delivered from the
auxiliary winding of the main transformer. The VDD must
not drop below 10V during the startup sequence.

The maximum power-on delay time is determined as:
If the secondary output short circuits or the feedback loop
is open, the FB pin voltage rises rapidly toward the openloop voltage, VFB-OPEN. Once the FB voltage remains
above VFB-OLP and lasts for tD-OLP, the FAN6300/A/H stops
emitting output pulses. To further limit the input power
under short-circuit or open-loop conditions, a special twostep UVLO mechanism has been built in to prolong this
discharge time of the VDD capacitor. In Figure 8, the twostep UVLO mechanism decreases the operating current
and pulls the VDD voltage toward the VDD-OFF. This sinking
current is disabled after the VDD drops below VDD-OFF. The
VDD voltage is again charged towards VDD-ON. With the
addition of the two-step UVLO mechanism, the average
input power during a short-circuit or open-loop condition
is greatly reduced. When the gate pulses are emitted, the
start-timer tSTARTER with 30μs per cycle is enabled. The
30μs start timer is enabled during startup until the output
voltage is established, when the feedback voltage (VFB) is
larger than 4.2V.

If a shorter startup time is required, a two-step startup
circuit, as shown in Figure 6, is recommended. In this
circuit, a smaller C1 capacitor can be used to reduce the
startup time. The energy supporting the FAN6300/A/H
after startup is mainly from a larger capacitor C2.

Detection Pin Circuitry
Figure 9 shows the DET pin circuitry. The DET pin is
connected to an auxiliary winding by RDET and RA. The
voltage divider is used for the following purposes:
ƒ
Detects the valley voltage of the switching waveform
to achieve the valley voltage switching. This ensures
QR operation, minimizes switching losses, and
reduces EMI.
ƒ
Produces an offset to compensate the threshold
voltage of the peak current limit to provide a constant
power limit. The offset is generated in accordance
with the input voltage with the PWM signal enabled.

Once the secondary-side switching current discharges to
zero, a valley signal is generated on the DET pin. It
detects the valley voltage of the switching waveform to
achieve the valley voltage switching. When the voltage of
auxiliary winding VAUX is negative (as defined in Figure 9),
the DET pin voltage is clamped to 0.3V. RDET is
recommended as 150kΩ to 220kΩ to achieve valley
voltage switching. After the platform voltage VS in Figure
10 is determined, RA can be calculated by Equation 14.
Figure 11 shows the output voltage OVP detection block
of using auxiliary winding to detect Vo. In normal
condition, VS is designed to be below 2.5V. The nominal
voltage of VS is designed around 80% of the reference
voltage 2.5V; thus, the recommended value for VS is
1.9V~2.1V. The output over-voltage protection works by
the sampling voltage after the switching-off sequence. A
4μs blanking time ignores the leakage inductance ringing.
If the DET pin OVP is triggered, the power system enters
latch mode until AC power is removed.

The proprietary green-mode function provides off-time
modulation to linearly decrease the switching frequency
under light-load conditions. VFB, which is derived from
the voltage feedback loop, is taken as the reference. In
Figure 14, once VFB is lower than 2.1V, the tOFF-MIN time
increases linearly with lower VFB. The valley voltage
detection signal does not start until the tOFF-MIN time
finishes. Therefore, the valley detect circuit is activated
until the tOFF-MIN time finishes, which decreases the
switching frequency and provides extended valley voltage
switching. In very light load conditions, it might fail to
detect the valley voltage after the tOFF-MIN expires. Under
this condition, an internal tTIME-OUT signal initiates a new
cycle start after a 9μs(5µs for H version) delay. Figure 15
and Figure 16 show the two different conditions.

from maximum load, VFB becomes lower. Once VFB is below
2.1V, the green-mode function is activated; thus tOFF time is
extended linearly. The flyback converter is forced to enter
discontinuous conduction mode (DCM); therefore, the
switching frequency fs can be decreased once the
MOSFET drain voltage is switched at further extended
valley voltage (2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th …valley, etc.). fs,g is larger
than 20kHz to prevent audio noise. Once the converter

RDET determines the extended valley switching capability.
A typical value for RDET is 150k-220kΩ. A smaller value
for RDET enhances the extended valley switching
capability, thus further extended valley voltage can be
switched. In different applications, the falling time of the
MOSFET drain voltage (tf, in Figure 4) may cause the
valley switching voltage to be imprecise. Adjust the RDET
value or add a capacitor CA connected from DET pin to

RDET also affects the H/L line constant power limit. To
compensate this variation for wide AC input range, the
DET pin produces an offset voltage to compensate the
threshold voltage of the peak current limit to provide a
constant-power limit. The offset is generated in
accordance with the input voltage when the PWM signal is
enabled. This results in a lower current limit at high-line
inputs than low-line inputs. At fixed-load condition, the
CS limit is higher when the value of RDET is higher.
Leading-Edge Blanking (LEB)
A voltage signal proportional to the MOSFET current
develops on the current-sense resistor RS. Each time the
MOSFET is turned on, a spike induced by the diode
reverse recovery and by the output capacitances of the
MODFET and diode, appears on the sensed signal. A
leading-edge blanking time of about 300ns has been
introduced to avoid premature termination of MOSFET by
the spike. Therefore, only a small-value RC filter (e.g.
100Ω+470pF) is required between the SENSE pin and RS.
A non-inductive resistor for the RS is recommended.

APPLICATION NOTE
Two kinds of commonly used transformer structure are
introduced as follows:
Output Driver / Soft Driving
The output stage is a fast totem-pole driver that can drive
a MOSFET gate directly. It is also equipped with a
voltage clamping Zener diode to protect the MOSFET
from damage caused by undesirable over-drive voltage.
The output voltage is clamped at 18V. An internal pulldown resistor is used to avoid a floating state of the gate
before startup. By integrating circuits to control the slew
rate of switch-on rise time, the external resistor RG may
not be necessary to reduce switching noise, improving
EMI performance.
Structure Type A:
Structure type A is sandwiching winding method. The
power supply is mostly used sandwiching the secondary
windings in between halves of the primary, especially
when the output power is large. The auxiliary winding is
at the top layer by increasing thickness between the
primary winding. This course of action can reduce the
leakage inductance and increase the coupling between the
primary and the secondary winding. It can also improve
the conversion efficiency and reduce the voltage spike on
the MOSFET owing to transformer leakage inductance.
However, it reflects the voltage spike on auxiliary winding
easily and causes a large voltage deviation on VDD in
light-load and heavy-load conditions.
Structure Type B:
Another kind of transformer structure is stacked winding
method, usually used in the switching power supplies with
smaller output power. This method produces worse
coupling between primary and secondary winding than
structure A; therefore, the voltage spike on the MOSFET
is higher and the conversion efficiency is lower.
Figure 20. Gate Drive
Transformer Structure
Figure 22 shows the modified structure of type A for
sandwiching winding. The auxiliary and secondary
windings are between halves of the primary windings.
With this method, smaller voltage deviation on VDD in
light load and heavy load can be achieved. Meanwhile, the
output voltage OVP level is more precise. Therefore, the
recommended transformer structure for the adaptor is
shown as Figure 22.
Leakage Inductance Effect
Figure 21 shows the practical waveform on the MOSFET
drain terminal. When the MOSFET turns off, a voltage
spike (Vspike) is produced on the drain terminal owing to
the transformer leakage inductance. The leak inductance is
not easily calculable, but it can be minimized through the
secondary windings between halves of the primary.
Meanwhile, the voltage waveform on the auxiliary
winding is similar to that on the MOSFET drain terminal.
These spike voltages contribute extra energy to the VDD
capacitor, which ruins the relationship between VDD
voltage and the output voltage.

APPLICATION NOTE
Lab Note
Before modifying or soldering/desoldering the power
supply, to discharge the primary capacitors through the
external bleeding resistor. Otherwise, the PWM IC may be
destroyed by external high-voltage during the process.
This device is sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD).
To improve the production yield, the production line
should be ESD protected as required by ANSI ESD S1.1,
ESD S1.4, ESD S7.1, ESD STM 12.1, and EOS/ESD S6.1
standards.
Printed Circuit Board Layout
Current/voltage/switching frequency make printed
circuit board layout and design a very important issue.
Good PCB layout minimizes excessive EMI and
prevents the power supply from being disrupted during
surge/ESD tests.
Guidelines:
ƒ To get better EMI performance and reduce line
ƒ

ƒ
frequency ripples, the output of the bridge rectifier
should be connected to capacitor Cbulk first, then to
the switching circuits.
The high-frequency current loop is found in Cbulk –
Transformer – MOSFET – RS – Cbulk. The area
enclosed by this current loop should be as small as
possible. Keep the traces (especially 4→1) short,
direct, and wide. High-voltage drain traces related
the MOSFET and RCD snubber should be kept far
way from control circuits to prevent unnecessary
interference. If a heatsink is used for the MOSFET,
ground the heatsink.
As indicated by 3, the control circuits’ ground
should be connected first, then to other circuitry.
As indicated by 2, the area enclosed by the
transformer auxiliary winding, D1, and C1 should
also be kept small. Place C1 close to the
FAN6300/A/H for good decoupling.
Two suggestions with different pros and cons for ground
connections are recommended:
ƒ GND3→2→4→1: Possible method for circumventing the
sense signals common impedance interference.
ƒ GND3→2→1→4: Potentially better for ESD testing
where a ground is not available for the power supply. The
charges for ESD discharge path go from secondary
through the transformer stray capacitance to the GND2
first. Then, the charges go from GND2 to GND1 and
back to the mains. Control circuits should not be placed
on the discharge path. Point discharge for common choke
can decrease high-frequency impedance and help increase
ESD immunity.
ƒ Should a Y-cap between primary and secondary be
required, the Y-cap should be connected to the positive
terminal of the Cbulk (VDC). If this Y-cap is connected to
the primary GND, it should be connected to the negative
terminal of the Cbulk (GND1) directly. Point discharge of
the Y-cap also helps with ESD. However, according to
safety requirements, the creepage between the two
pointed ends should be at least 5mm.

Design Example
This section shows a design example of 90W (19V/4.74A)
adaptor using QR PWM controller FAN6300/A/H and
boundary conduction mode PFC controller FAN6961. The
PFC output voltage is 260V at low AC input voltage, 400V
at high AC input voltage. From the specification, all critical
components are treated and final measurement results are
given.
Based on the design guideline, the critical parameters are
calculated and summarized as shown in Table 2.
