UVLO and Start up Circuit The AP3710's turn on threshold voltage is 5.6V and its turn off threshold voltage is 3.65V, so the UVLO hysteresis voltage is 1.95V, which helps AP3710 to draw adequate energy to supply VCC terminal during start-up. Please see Figure 13 for UVLO chart.

The Start-up Circuit of Typical Application 3.65 5.6 VCC: Supply Voltage (V) In start-up section of typical application shown by Figure 14, the rectified line voltage VIN charges the capacitor C4 through start-up resistor R2+R3 until Q1 is turned on so OUT terminal can directly drive external Q1, a MOSFET inside AP3710 is connected in series with the Q1. Figure 13. 5.6/3.65V UVLO Threshold of AP3710 The VCC terminal in Figure 3 is used for both bias supply and feedback control. When AP3710 is powered on, the start-up current source turns on and it can not turn off until VCC level increases to its threshold value and PWM pulse is produced. Once the start-up is set up, the auxiliary bias winding will supply the VCC terminal enough operating current. The start-up sequence is shown in Figure 15. Figure 15. Power up Waveforms Aug. 2008 Rev. 1. 3 BCD Semiconductor Manufacturing Limited 9 Data Sheet LOW POWER PWM CONTROLLER FOR OFF-LINE ADAPTER AP3710 Function Description (Continued) 2. VCC/Feedback Control 5. Current Limit Control In Figure 14, an opto-coupler and secondary constant voltage consists of voltage feedback network. Voltage feedback loop consists of shunt regulator AZ431 and FB/VCC terminal of AP3710. When load is heavy, the voltage on VCC terminal will decrease to enlarge duty cycle; on the contrary, if load drops, the voltage on VCC will increase to reduce duty cycle. The AP3710 employs current mode control to improve transient response and voltage stability. In Figure 3, the external inductor current through the OUT pin is converted to a voltage by an internal resistor, and this voltage will participate to control duty cycle and peak inductor current. 3. Skip Cycle Mode Operation 6. Frequency Dithering The AP3710 enters skip cycle mode when load power drops below a given level, and this is performed by sensing the VCC voltage level, i.e., the heavier load power, the lower VCC voltage level. In normal operation, the VCC terminal indicates a peak inductance current under certain load power. If the load power decreases, VCC voltage level increases to ask for less peak current. When it reaches a determined value, the IC prevents the current from decreasing further down and starts to blank the output pulses, the IC then enters the skip cycle mode operation. Figure 16 is the sketch for the two operation mode. Frequency dithering is performed by periodically spreading a single switching frequency into adjacent frequency band, so the peak energy is spread. This technique can improve EMI performance by reducing both quasi peak and average EMI emissions. Normal PWM Waveform Cycle Skip Waveform 0 t Figure 16. Skip Cycle and Normal PWM Waveform Figure 17. Frequency Dither Influences the Switching Cycle 4. Slope Compensation The AP3710 is current mode PWM controller, and it regulates peak inductance current by its current control loop. It is known that a continuous conduction mode SMPS may induce noise and harmonic oscillation on current sense or feedback signal, and this is especially serious when duty cycle exceeds 50%. The internal slope compensation of AP3710 can improve power supply stability by increasing the current slope.

Short Circuit Protection From UVLO From VCC Internal short circuit control can protect a SMPS from being damaged when short circuit at its output happens. Discharge Comparator VA Discharge Logic In Figure 18, when VCC drops below its turn off threshold value, the UVLO comparator's output will control the Discharge Logic to pull VA terminal to low level, and the low level is kept before the VCC voltage drops below the threshold value of discharge comparator. Then the system will re-startup from C4 charging again and the same process will repeat indefinitely. The long start-up period makes the input power low enough to ensure the whole system in safety under output short circuit condition. VREF 1.2V Figure 18.
