PWM Current−Mode
Controller for High−Power
Universal Off−Line Supplies
Housed in a SOIC−8 or PDIP−7 package, the NCP1216 represents
an enhanced version of NCP1200 based controllers. Due to its high
drive capability, NCP1216 drives large gate−charge MOSFETs, which
together with internal ramp compensation and built−in frequency
jittering, ease the design of modern AC−DC adapters.
With an internal structure operating at different fixed frequencies,
the controller supplies itself from the high−voltage rail, avoiding the
need of an auxiliary winding. This feature naturally eases the designer
task in some particular applications, e.g. battery chargers or TV sets.
Current−mode control also provides an excellent input audio
susceptibility and inherent pulse−by−pulse control. Internal ramp
compensation easily prevents sub−harmonic oscillations from taking
place in continuous conduction mode designs.
When the current setpoint falls below a given value, e.g. the output
power demand diminishes, the IC automatically enters the so−called
skip cycle mode and provides excellent efficiency at light loads.
Because this occurs at a user adjustable low peak current, no acoustic
noise takes place.
The NCP1216 features an efficient protective circuitry, which in
presence of an over current condition disables the output pulses while
the device enters a safe burst mode, trying to restart. Once the default
has gone, the device auto−recovers.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Introduction
Over Current Protection (OCP): By continuously
monitoring the FB line activity, NCP1216 enters burst mode
as soon as the power supply undergoes an overload. The
device enters a safe low power operation, which prevents
from any lethal thermal runaway. As soon as the default
disappears, the power supply resumes operation. Unlike
other controllers, overload detection is performed
independently of any auxiliary winding level. In presence of
a bad coupling between both power and auxiliary windings,
the short circuit detection can be severely affected. The DSS
naturally shields you against these troubles.
Wide Duty−Cycle Operation: Wide mains operation requires
The NCP1216 implements a standard current mode
architecture where the switch−off event is dictated by the
peak current setpoint. This component represents the ideal
candidate where low part count is the key parameter,
particularly in low−cost AC−DC adapters, TV power
supplies etc. Due to its high−performance High−Voltage
technology, the NCP1216 incorporates all the necessary
components normally needed in UC384X based supplies:
timing components, feedback devices, low−pass filter and
self−supply. This later point emphasizes the fact that ON
Semiconductor’s NCP1216 does NOT need an auxiliary
winding to operate: the product is naturally supplied from
the high−voltage rail and delivers a VCC to the IC. This
system is called the Dynamic Self−Supply (DSS):
Dynamic Self−Supply (DSS): Due to its Very High
Voltage Integrated Circuit (VHVIC) technology,
ON Semiconductor’s NCP1216 allows for a direct pin
connection to the high−voltage DC rail. A dynamic current
source charges up a capacitor and thus provides a fully
independent VCC level to the NCP1216. As a result, there is
no need for an auxiliary winding whose management is
always a problem in variable output voltage designs (e.g.
battery chargers).
Adjustable Skip Cycle Level: By offering the ability to tailor
the level at which the skip cycle takes place, the designer can
make sure that the skip operation only occurs at low peak
current. This point guarantees a noise−free operation with
cheap transformers. Skip cycle offers a proven mean to
reduce the standby power in no or light loads situations.
Internal Frequency Dithering for Improved EMI
Signature: By modulating the internal switching frequency
with the DSS VCC ripple, natural energy spread appears and
softens the controller’s EMI signature.
Wide Switching − Frequency Offered with Different
Options (65 kHz − 100 kHz − 133 kHz): Depending on the
application, the designer can pick up the right device to help
reducing magnetics or improve the EMI signature before
reaching the 150 kHz starting point.
Ramp Compensation: By inserting a resistor between the
Current Sense (CS) pin and the actual sense resistor, it
becomes possible to inject a given amount of ramp
compensation since the internal sawtooth clock is routed to
the CS pin. Sub−harmonic oscillations in Continuous
Conduction Mode (CCM) can thus be compensated via a
single resistor.
a large duty−cycle excursion. The NCP1216 can go up to 75%
typically. For Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM)
applications, the internal ramp compensation lets you fight
against sub−harmonic oscillations.
Low Standby Power: If SMPS naturally exhibit a good
efficiency at nominal load, they begin to be less efficient
when the output power demand diminishes. By skipping
unnecessary switching cycles, the NCP1216 drastically
reduces the power wasted during light load conditions. In
no−load conditions, the NPC1216 allows the total standby
power to easily reach next International Energy Agency
(IEA) recommendations.
No Acoustic Noise While Operating: Instead of skipping
cycles at high peak currents, the NCP1216 waits until the
peak current demand falls below a user−adjustable 1/3 of the
maximum limit. As a result, cycle skipping can take place
without having a singing transformer, one can thus select
cheap magnetic components free of noise problems.
External MOSFET Connection: By leaving the external
MOSFET external to the IC, you can select avalanche proof
devices, which in certain cases (e.g. low output powers), let
you work without an active clamping network. Also, by
controlling the MOSFET gate signal flow; you have an
option to slow down the device commutation, therefore
reducing the amount of ElectroMagnetic Interference
(EMI).
SPICE Model: A dedicated model to run transient
cycle−by−cycle simulations is available but also an
averaged version to help you closing the loop. Ready−to−use
templates can be downloaded in OrCAD’s PSpice and
INTUSOFT’s IsSpice from ON Semiconductor web site, in
the NCP1216 related section.

Application note AND8069/D details tricks to widen the
NCP1216 driving implementation, in particular for large Qg
MOSFETs. This document can be downloaded at
www.onsemi.com/pub/Collateral/AND8069−D.PDF.
The DSS principle is based on the charge/discharge of the
VCC bulk capacitor from a low level up to a higher level. We
can easily describe the current source operation with a bunch
of simple logical equations:
POWER−ON: If VCC < VCCOFF then the Current Source
is ON, no output pulses
If VCC decreasing > VCCON then the Current Source is
OFF, output is pulsing
If VCC increasing < VCCOFF then the Current Source is
ON, output is pulsing
Typical values are: VCCOFF = 12.2 V, VCCON = 10 V
To better understand the operational principle, Figure 18
offers the necessary light:
Vripple = 2.2 V
Ramp Compensation
Ramp compensation is a known mean to cure
sub−harmonic oscillations. These oscillations take place at
half the switching frequency and occur only during
Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) with a duty−cycle
greater than 50%. To lower the current loop gain, one usually
injects between 50% and 100% of the inductor down−slope.
Figure 19 depicts how internally the ramp is generated:

The DSS behavior actually depends on the internal IC
consumption and the MOSFET’s gate charge Qg. If we
select a 600 V 10 A MOSFET featuring a 30 nC Qg, then we
can compute the resulting average consumption supported
by the DSS which is:

(eq. 6)
when projected over an Rsense of 0.1 , for instance. If we
select 75% of the down−slope as the required amount of
ramp compensation, then we shall inject 27 mV/s. Our
internal compensation being of 251 mV/s, the divider ratio
(divratio) between Rcomp and the 19 k is 0.107. A few lines
of algebra to determine Rcomp:

ratio of 1:0.1. The OFF time primary current slope is thus
given by:

As you can see, it exists a tradeoff where the dissipation

circuit can drive, keeping its dissipation below a given
target. Please see the “Power Dissipation” section for a

peak−to−peak ripple, the NCP1216P065 frequency will
equal 65 kHz in the middle of the ripple and will increase as
VCC rises or decrease as VCC ramps down. Figure 20
portrays the behavior we have adopted:

To better understand how this skip cycle mode takes place,
a look at the operation mode versus the FB level
immediately gives the necessary insight:

Figure 21.
When FB is above the skip cycle threshold (1.0 V by
default), the peak current cannot exceed 1.0 V/Rsense. When
the IC enters the skip cycle mode, the peak current cannot go
below Vpin1 / 3.3. The user still has the flexibility to alter this
1.0 V by either shunting pin 1 to ground through a resistor
or raising it through a resistor up to the desired level.
Grounding pin 1 permanently invalidates the skip cycle
operation.

Skipping Cycle Mode
The NCP1216 automatically skips switching cycles when
the output power demand drops below a given level. This is
accomplished by monitoring the FB pin. In normal
operation, pin 2 imposes a peak current accordingly to the
load value. If the load demand decreases, the internal loop
asks for less peak current. When this setpoint reaches a
determined level, the IC prevents the current from
decreasing further down and starts to blank the output
pulses: the IC enters the so−called skip cycle mode, also
named controlled burst operation. The power transfer now
depends upon the width of the pulse bunches (Figure 22).
Suppose we have the following component values:
Lp, primary inductance = 350 H
Fsw, switching frequency = 65 kHz
Ip skip = 600 mA (or 333 mV / Rsense)
The theoretical power transfer is therefore:

The PDIP−7 package offers a junction−to−ambient thermal
resistance RJ−A of 100°C/W. Adding some copper area
around the PCB footprint will help decreasing this number:
12 mm x 12 mm to drop RJ−A down to 75°C/W with 35 copper thickness (1 oz.) or 6.5 mm x 6.5 mm with 70 copper thickness (2 oz.). For a SOIC−8, the original
178°C/W will drop to 100°C/W with the same amount of
copper. With this later PDIP−7 number, we can compute the

In some cases, it might be desirable to shut off the part
temporarily and authorize its restart once the default has
disappeared. This option can easily be accomplished
through a single NPN bipolar transistor wired between FB
and ground. By pulling FB below the Adj pin 1 level, the
output pulses are disabled as long as FB is pulled below
pin 1. As soon as FB is relaxed, the IC resumes its operation.

(eq. 12)
which barely matches our previous budget. Several
solutions exist to help improving the situation:
1. Insert a Resistor in Series with Pin 8: This resistor will
take a part of the heat normally dissipated by the NCP1216.
Calculations of this resistor imply that Vpin8 does not drop
below 30 V in the lowest mains conditions. Therefore, Rdrop
can be selected with:

(eq. 13)
In our case, Vbulk minimum is 120 VDC, which leads to a
dropping resistor of 8.7 k. With the above example in
mind, the DSS will exhibit a duty−cycle of:
2.9 mA8 mA 36%
(eq. 14)
By inserting the 8.7 k resistor, we drop
8.7 k * 8 mA 69.6 V
(eq. 15)
during the DSS activation. The power dissipated by the
NCP1216 is therefore:

The NCP1216 is directly supplied from the DC rail
through the internal DSS circuitry. The current flowing
through the DSS is therefore the direct image of the
NCP1216 current consumption. The total power dissipation
can be evaluated using:
(VHVDC 11 V) ICC2
(eq. 16)
(eq. 18)
2. Select a MOSFET with a Lower Qg : Certain MOSFETs
exhibit different total gate charges depending on the
technology they use. Careful selection of this component
can help to significantly decrease the dissipated heat.
3. Implement Figure 3, from AN8069/D, Solution: This is
another possible option to keep the DSS functionality (good
short−circuit protection and EMI jittering) while driving any
types of MOSFETs. This solution is recommended when the
designer plans to use SOIC−8 controllers.
(eq. 10)
which is, as we saw, directly related to the MOSFET Qg. If
we operate the device on a 90−250 VAC rail, the maximum
rectified voltage can go up to 350 VDC. However, as the
characterization curves show, the current consumption
drops at a higher junction temperature, which quickly occurs

NCP1216, NCP1216A
During the startup phase, the peak current is pushed to the
maximum until the output voltage reaches its target and the
feedback loop takes over. This period of time depends on
normal output load conditions and the maximum peak
current allowed by the system. The time−out used by this IC
works with the VCC decoupling capacitor: as soon as the
VCC decreases from the VCCOFF level (typically 12.2 V) the
device internally watches for an overload current situation.
If this condition is still present when the VCCON level is
reached, the controller stops the driving pulses, prevents the
self−supply current source to restart and puts all the circuitry
in standby, consuming as little as 350 A typical (ICC3
parameter). As a result, the VCC level slowly discharges
toward 0 V. When this level crosses 5.6 V typical, the
controller enters a new startup phase by turning the current
source on: VCC rises toward 12.2 V and again delivers
output pulses at the VCCOFF crossing point. If the fault
condition has been removed before VCCON approaches,
then the IC continues its normal operation. Otherwise, a new
fault cycle takes place. Figure 25 shows the evolution of the
signals in presence of a fault.
4. Connect an Auxiliary Winding: If the mains conditions
are such that you simply can’t match the maximum power
dissipation, then you need to connect an auxiliary winding
to permanently disconnect the startup source.
Overload Operation
In applications where the output current is purposely not
controlled (e.g. wall adapters delivering raw DC level), it is
interesting to implement a true short−circuit protection. A
short−circuit actually forces the output voltage to be at a low
level, preventing a bias current to circulate in the
Optocoupler LED. As a result, the FB pin level is pulled up
to 4.2 V, as internally imposed by the IC. The peak current
setpoint goes to the maximum and the supply delivers a
rather high power with all the associated effects. Please note
that this can also happen in case of feedback loss, e.g. a
broken Optocoupler. To account for this situation, NCP1216
hosts a dedicated overload detection circuitry. Once
activated, this circuitry imposes to deliver pulses in a burst
manner with a low duty−cycle. The system auto−recovers
when the fault condition disappears.

you first apply the power to the IC. The corresponding
transient fault duration due to the output capacitor charging
must be less than the time needed to discharge from 12.2 V
to 10 V, otherwise the supply will not properly start. The test
consists in either simulating or measuring in the lab how
much time the system takes to reach the regulation at full
load. Let’s suppose that this time corresponds to 6ms.
Therefore a VCC fall time of 10 ms could be well
appropriated in order to not trigger the overload detection
circuitry. If the corresponding IC consumption, including
Calculating the VCC Capacitor

internal parasitic SCRs are triggered, engendering
irremediable damages to the IC if a low impedance path is
offered between VCC and GND. If the current sense pin is
often the seat of such spurious signals, the high−voltage pin
can also be the source of problems in certain circumstances.
During the turn−off sequence, e.g. when the user unplugs the
power supply, the controller is still fed by its VCC capacitor
and keeps activating the MOSFET ON and OFF with a peak
current limited by Rsense. Unfortunately, if the quality
coefficient Q of the resonating network formed by Lp and
Cbulk is low (e.g. the MOSFET Rdson + Rsense are small),
conditions are met to make the circuit resonate and thus
negatively bias the controller. Since we are talking about ms
pulses, the amount of injected charge, (Q = I * t),
immediately latches the controller that brutally discharges
its VCC capacitor. If this VCC capacitor is of sufficient value,
its stored energy damages the controller. Figure 26 depicts
a typical negative shot occurring on the HV pin where the
brutal VCC discharge testifies for latchup.
the MOSFET drive, establishes at 2.9 mA, we can calculate
the required capacitor using the following formula:
t V·C
i
(eq. 19)
with V = 2.2 V. Then for a wanted t of 30 ms, C equals
39.5 F or a 68 F for a standard value (including ±20%
dispersions). When an overload condition occurs, the IC
blocks its internal circuitry and its consumption drops to
350 A typical. This happens at VCC = 10 V and it remains
stuck until VCC reaches 5.6 V: we are in latchoff phase.
Again, using the selected 68 F and 350 A current
consumption, this latchoff phase lasts: 780 ms.
Protecting the Controller Against Negative Spikes
As with any controller built upon a CMOS technology, it
is the designer’s duty to avoid the presence of negative
spikes on sensitive pins. Negative signals have the bad habit
to forward bias the controller substrate and induce erratic
behaviors. Sometimes, the injection can be so strong that

Figure 26. A Negative Spike Takes Place on the Bulk Capacitor at the Switch−off Sequence
Another option (Figure 28) consists in wiring a diode
from VCC to the bulk capacitor to force VCC to reach
VCCON sooner and thus stops the switching activity before
the bulk capacitor gets deeply discharged. For security
reasons, two diodes can be connected in series.
Simple and inexpensive cures exist to prevent from
internal parasitic SCR activation. One of them consists in
inserting a resistor in series with the high−voltage pin to
keep the negative current to the lowest when the bulk
becomes negative (Figure 27). Please note that the negative
spike is clamped to (−2 * Vf) due to the diode bridge. Also,
the power dissipation of this resistor is extremely small since
it only heats up during the startup sequence.

Soft−Start − NCP1216A only
The NCP1216A features an internal 1.0 ms soft−start
activated during the power on sequence (PON). As soon as
VCC reaches VCCOFF, the peak current is gradually
increased from nearly zero up to the maximum clamping
level (e.g. 1.0 V). This situation lasts during 1ms and further
to that time period, the peak current limit is blocked to
1.0 V until the supply enters regulation. The soft−start is also
activated during the over current burst (OCP) sequence.
Every restart attempt is followed by a soft−start activation.
Generally speaking, the soft−start will be activated when
VCC ramps up either from zero (fresh power−on sequence)
or 5.6 V, the latchoff voltage occurring during OCP.
Figure 29 portrays the soft−start behavior. The time scales
are purposely shifted to offer a better zoom portion.
