ON NCP1027P065G High−voltage switcher for medium power offline smps featuring low standby power Datasheet

NCP1027
High−Voltage Switcher
for Medium Power Offline
SMPS Featuring Low
Standby Power
The NCP1027 offers a new solution targeting output power levels
from a few watts up to 15 W in a universal mains flyback application.
Our proprietary high−voltage technology lets us include a power
MOSFET together with a startup current source, all directly
connected to the bulk capacitor. To prevent lethal runaway in low
input voltage conditions, an adjustable brown−out circuitry blocks
the activity until sufficient input level is reached.
Current−mode operation together with an adjustable ramp
compensation offers superior performance in universal mains
applications. Furthermore, an Over Power Protection pin brings the
ability to precisely compensate all internal delays in high input voltage
conditions and optimize the maximum output current capability.
Protection wise, a timer detects an overload or a short−circuit and
stops all operations, ensuring a safe auto−recovery, low duty cycle burst
operation. An integrated, auto−recovery, Overvoltage Protection
permanently monitors the VCC level and temporarily shuts down the
driving pulses in case of an unexpected feedback loop runaway.
Finally, a great RDS(on) figure makes the circuit an excellent choice
for standby/auxiliary offline power supplies or applications requiring
higher output power levels.

Description
This pin is connected to an external capacitor of typically 22 mF. The VCC
includes an active shunt which serves as an auto−recovery overvoltage
protection.
To extend the duty cycle operation in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM),
pin 3 offers the ability to inject ramp compensation in the controller. If unused,
short this pin to VCC.
By monitoring the bulk level via a resistive network, the circuit protects itself
from low mains conditions. If an external event brings this pin above 4.0 V,
the part fully latches off.
By connecting an optocoupler to this pin, the peak current setpoint is adjusted
accordingly to the output power demand.
The internal drain power switch circuit connection.
This unconnected pin ensures adequate creepage distance.
Driving this pin reduces the power supply capability in high line conditions. If
no Over Power Protection is needed, short this pin to ground.

NCP1027
APPLICATION INFORMATION
• Fail−Safe Optocoupler/Overvoltage Protection: As
Introduction
The NCP1027 offers a complete current−mode control
solution and enhances the NCP101X series. The
component integrates everything needed to build a rugged
and low−cost Switch−Mode Power Supply (SMPS)
featuring low standby power.
• Current−Mode Operation: The controller uses a
current−mode control architecture, which, together
with an adjustable ramp compensation circuitry,
ensures efficient and stable continuous or
discontinuous conduction designs.
• 700 V–5.8 W Power Switch Circuit: Due to
ON Semiconductor Very High Voltage Integrated
Circuit technology, the circuit hosts a high−voltage
power switch circuit featuring a 5.8 W RDS(on) – TJ =
25°C. This value lets the designer build a 15 W
power supply operated on universal mains as
long as sufficient copper area exists to lower the
junction−to−ambient thermal resistance. An internal
current source delivers the startup current, necessary
to crank the power supply.
• Short−Circuit Protection: By permanently
monitoring the feedback line activity, the circuit is
able to detect the presence of a short−circuit,
immediately reducing the output power for a total
system protection. A 55 ms timer is started as soon as
the feedback pin asks for the maximum peak current.
At the end of this timer, if the fault is still present,
then the device enters a safe, auto−recovery burst
mode, affected by a fixed 440 ms recurrence. Once the
short has disappeared, the controller resumes and goes
back to normal operation. The timer duration is fully
independent from the VCC capacitor value.
• Over Power Protection: A possibility exists to reduce
the maximum output power capability in high line
conditions. A simple two resistor network wired to the
bulk capacitor will program the maximum current
reduction for a given input voltage (down to 20% of
the maximum peak current).
•
•
•
•
•
the auxiliary winding is connected to the VCC pin, an
internal active clamp connected between VCC and
ground limits the supply dynamics to 8.7 V. In case
the current injected in this clamp exceeds a level of
6.0 mA (minimum), the controller immediately stops
switching and waits a full timer period before
attempting to restart. If the default is gone, the
controller resumes operation. If the default is still
there, e.g. a broken optocoupler, the controller protects
the load through a safe burst mode.
Brown−Out Input: A fraction of the input voltage
appears on pin 3, due to a resistive divider. If the
mains drops below a level adjusted by this resistive
divider, the circuit does not switch. As soon as the
mains goes back within its normal range, the device
resumes operation and operates normally. By adjusting
the bridge resistors, it becomes possible to set the
brown−out levels (on and off) independently.
Latchoff: Pin 3 also welcomes a comparator who
offers a way to fully latch the controller. If an external
event (e.g. an overtemperature) brings the brown−out
pin above 3.5 V, the circuit stays permanently off
until the user cycles its VCC down, for instance by
unplugging the converter from the mains outlet.
Frequency Jittering: The internal clock receives a
low frequency modulation which helps smoothing the
power supply EMI signature.
Soft−Start: A 1.0 ms soft−start ensures a smooth
startup sequence, reducing output overshoots.
Skip Cycle: If SMPS naturally exhibit a good
efficiency at nominal load, they begin to be less
efficient when the output power demand diminishes.
By skipping unneeded switching cycles, the NCP1027
drastically reduces the power wasted during light load
conditions. Experiments carried over the 5.0 V/2.0 A
demonstration board reveal a standby power at
no−load and 265 Vac of 85 mW and an efficiency for
500 mW output power of 64% at 230 Vac.

Figure 24. Internal Arrangement of the Startup Circuitry
When the power supply is first connected to the mains
outlet, the internal current source is biased and charges up
the VCC capacitor. When the voltage on this VCC capacitor
reaches the VCCON level (typically 8.5 V), the current
source turns off, reducing the amount of power being
dissipated. At this time, the VCC capacitor only supplies the
controller, and the auxiliary supply should take over before
VCC collapses below VCC(min). This VCC capacitor, CVCC,
must therefore be calculated to hold enough energy so that
VCC stays above VCC(min) (7.3 V typical) until the
auxiliary voltage fully takes over.
An auxiliary winding is needed to maintain the VCC in
order to self−supply the switcher. The VCC capacitor has
only a supply role and its value does not impact other
parameters such as fault duration or the frequency sweep
period for instance. As one can see in Figure 24, an internal
active Zener diode, protects the switcher against lethal VCC
runaways. This situation can occur if the feedback loop
optocoupler fails, for instance, and you would like to
protect the converter against an over voltage event. In that
case, the internal current increase incurred by the VCC
rapid growth triggers the over voltage protection (OVP)
circuit and immediately stops the output pulses for 440 ms.
Then a new startup attempt takes place to check whether
the fault has disappeared or not. The OVP paragraph gives
more design details on this particular section.
The VCC capacitor can be calculated knowing a) the
amount of energy that needs to be stored; b) the time it
takes for the auxiliary voltage to appear, and; c) the current
consumed by the controller at that time. For a better
understanding, Figure 25 shows how the voltage evolves
on the VCC capacitor upon startup.

voltage evolution versus time.
Suppose our power supply takes 10 ms (tstartup) to bring
the output voltage to its target value. We know that the
switcher consumption is around 2.0 mA (ICC1). Therefore,
we can calculate the amount of capacitance we need, to
hold VCC above 7.5 V at least for 10 ms while delivering
2.0 mA:

Fault Condition – Short−Circuit on VCC
In some fault situations, a short−circuit can purposely
occur between VCC and GND. In high line conditions
(VHV = 370 VDC) the current delivered by the startup
device will seriously increase the junction temperature. For
instance, since IC1 equals 3.0 mA (the min corresponds to
the highest TJ), the device would dissipate 370
3m=
1.1 W. To avoid this situation, the controller includes a
novel circuitry made of two startup levels, IC1 and IC2. At
powerup, as long as VCC is below a 1.3 V level, the source
delivers IC1 (around 650 mA typical), then, when VCC
reaches 1.3 V, the source smoothly transitions to IC2 and
delivers its nominal value. As a result, in case of
short−circuit between VCC and GND, the power dissipation
will drop to 370
650 m = 240 mW. Figure 26 portrays
this particular behavior.
Figure 26. The startup source now features a
dual−level startup current.
The first startup period is calculated by the formula
C V = I t, which implies a 33 m 1.3/650 m = 66 ms
startup time for the first sequence (t1). The second
sequence (t2) is obtained by toggling the source to 4.0 mA
with a delta V of VCCON – VCCth = 8.5 – 1.5 = 7.0 V,
which finally leads to a second startup time of
7
33 m/6.0 m = 39 ms. The total startup time becomes
66 m + 39 m = 105 ms as a typical value. Please note that
this calculation is approximated by the presence of the knee
in the vicinity of the transition.

NCP1027
Fault Condition – Output Short−Circuit
As soon as VCC reaches VCCON, drive pulses are
internally enabled. If everything is correct, the auxiliary
winding increases the voltage on the VCC pin as the output
voltage rises. During the start−sequence, the controller
smoothly ramps up the peak current to Imax setting, e.g.
Ipeak_HI, which is reached after a typical period of 1.0 ms.
As soon as the peak current setpoint reaches its maximum
(during the startup period but also anytime an overload
occurs), an internal error flag is asserted, Ipflag, indicating
that the system has reached its maximum current limit set
point (Ip = Ip max). The assertion of this flag triggers a
55 ms counter. If at counter completion Ipflag remains
asserted, all driving pulses are stopped and the part stays off
during eight periods of 55 ms (440 ms). A new attempt to
restart occurs and will last 55 ms providing the fault is still
present. If the fault still affects the output, a safe burst mode
is entered, affected by a low duty−cycle operation (11%).
When the fault disappears, the power supply quickly
resumes operation. Figure 27 depicts this particular mode.
Figure 27. In case of short−circuit or overload, the NCP1027 protects itself and the power supply via a low
frequency burst mode. The VCC is maintained by the current source and self−supplies the controller.

NCP1027
In Figure 27, one can see that the VCC is still alive,
testifying for a badly coupled power secondary and
primary auxiliary windings. Some situations exist where an
output short−circuit make the auxiliary winding collapse
before the timer completion. In this particular case, the
Undervoltage Lock Out (UVLO) circuitry has the priority
and safely cuts off all driving pulses. Figure 28 describes
this variation.
Figure 28. The auxiliary winding collapses in presence of a short−circuit. Pulses are immediately stopped
as VCC crosses the minimum operating voltage, VCC(min).

NCP1027
Fault Condition – Output Too Low
This particular mode of operation occurs when the
feedback is ensured by a two−loop control imposing either
constant output voltage (CV) or constant output current
(CC), for instance in a battery charger. In CC mode, the
output voltage falls down below the original target but the
feedback loop is kept closed by the CC controller. For that
reason, the controller becomes un−able to detect a real
output short−circuit since Ipflag will never be asserted.
Due to a good winding coupling, the primary side auxiliary
collapsing will ensure a proper fault detection via the
UVLO internal circuit. Figure 29 depicts this operating
way.
Figure 29. In this particular case, the output goes low but the timer is not started since the FB pin is still held
by the optocoupler. Due to the UVLO circuit, the controller safely stops operation at VCC = VCC(min).

Fault Condition – Low Input Voltage
The NCP1027 includes a brown−out circuitry able to
protect the power supply in case of low input voltage
conditions. Figure 30 shows how internally the NCP1027
monitors the voltage image of the bulk capacitor. Below a
given level, the controller blocks the driving pulses, above
it, it authorizes them. The internal circuitry, depicted by

rail. A resistive divider made of Rupper and Rlower , brings
a portion of the HV rail on pin 3. Below the turn−on level,
the 10 mA current source IBO is off. Therefore, the turn−on
level solely depends on the division ratio brought by the
resistive divider.

Figure 31 describes signal variations during a brown−out

when VCC reaches VCC(ON), ensuring a clean startup
sequence. As in fault mode conditions, the startup source
is activated on and off and self−supplies the controller in a
Dynamic Self−Supply (DSS) mode.

drifting) or when an overtemperature is detected.
Secondary monitoring is usually implemented when the
coupling between auxiliary and power windings does not
lead to a precise primary detection, hence the
auto−recovery OVP on pin 1 would not satisfy the precision
requirements. Due to the addition of a comparator on the
BO pin, a simple external circuit can lift up this pin above
VLATCH and permanently disable pulses. The VCC needs
to be cycled down below 3.5 V typically to reset the
controller.

Auto−Recovery Overvoltage Protection
The particular NCP1027 arrangement offers a simple
way to prevent output voltage runaway when the
optocoupler fails. As Figure 34 shows, an active Zener
diode monitors and protects the VCC pin. Below its
equivalent breakdown voltage, that is to say 8.7 V typical,
no current flows in it. If the auxiliary VCC pushes too much
current inside the Zener, then the controller considers an
OVP situation and stops the pulses. Figure 34 shows that
the insertion of a resistor (Rlimit ) between the auxiliary DC
level and the VCC pin is mandatory a) not to damage the
internal 8.7 V Zener diode during an overshoot for instance
(absolute maximum current is 15 mA) b) to implement the
fail−safe optocoupler protection (OVP) as offered by the
active clamp. Please note that there cannot be bad
interaction between the clamping voltage of the internal
Zener and VCCON since this clamping voltage is actually
built on top of VCCON with a fixed amount of offset
(200 mV typical). Rlimit should be carefully selected to
avoid triggering the OVP as we discussed, but also to avoid
disturbing the VCC in low/light load conditions. The
following details how to evaluate the Rlimit value.
Self−supplying controllers in extremely low standby
applications often puzzles the designer. Actually, if an
SMPS operated at nominal load can deliver an auxiliary
voltage of an arbitrary 16 V (Vnom), this voltage can drop
below 10 V (Vstby) when entering standby. This is because
the recurrence of the switching pulses expands so much,
that the low frequency refueling rate of the VCC capacitor
is not enough to keep a proper auxiliary voltage. Figure 35
portrays a typical scope shot of an SMPS entering deep
standby (output unloaded). Thus, care must be taken when
calculating Rlimit 1) to not trigger the VCC overcurrent latch
(by injecting 6.0 mA into the active clamp – always use the
minimum value for worse case design) in normal operation
but 2) not to drop too much voltage over Rlimit when
entering standby. Otherwise, the converter will enter burst
mode as it will sense an UVLO condition. Based on these
recommendations, we are able to bound Rlimit between two
equations:
Vstby−VCCON
Vnom−Vclamp
v Rlimit v
ICC1
Itrip
(eq. 3)
Where:
Vnom is the auxiliary voltage at nominal load.
Vstdby is the auxiliary voltage when standby is entered.
Itrip is the current corresponding to the nominal operation.
It thus must be selected to avoid false tripping in overshoot
conditions. Always use the minimum of the specification
for a robust design.
ICC1 is the controller consumption. This number slightly
decreases compared to ICC1 from the spec since the part
in standby does almost not switch. It is around 1.0 mA for
the 65 kHz version.
VCC(min) is the level above which the auxiliary voltage
must be maintained to keep the controller away from the
UVLO trip point. It is good to obtain around 8.0 V in order
to offer an adequate design margin, e.g. to not reactivate the
startup source (which is not a problem in itself if low
standby power does not matter).

can be seen on auxiliary windings from nominal operation
down to standby mode. Let’s select a nominal auxiliary
winding of 20 V to offer sufficient margin regarding 8.0 V
when in standby (Rlimit also drops voltage in standby…).
Since Rlimit shall not bother the controller in standby, e.g.
keep Vauxiliary to around 8.0 V (as selected above), we
purposely select a Vnom well above this value. As
explained before, experience shows that a 40% decrease

If we design a 65 kHz power supply delivering 12 V, then
the ratio between auxiliary and power must be: 12/20 = 0.6.
The OVP latch will activate when the clamp current
exceeds 6.0 mA. This will occur when Vauxiliary grows up
to:
1. 8.7 + 1.8 k

boundary (Rlimit = 1.8 kW).
2. 8.7 + 4 k
(6 m + 1.8 m) ≈ 40 V for the second
boundary (Rlimit = 4.0 kW).
Due to a 0.6 ratio between the auxiliary VCC and the
power winding, the auxiliary OVP will be seen as a lower
overshoot on the real output:

As one can see, tweaking the Rlimit value will allow the

almost impossible exercise since many parameters are
involved, including the converter time constants. Fine
tuning of Rlimit thus requires a few iterations and

Improving the Precision in Auto−Recovery OVP
Given the OVP variations the internal trip current
dispersion incur, it is sometimes more interesting to
explore a different solution, improving the situation to the
cost of a minimal amount of surrounding elements.
Figure 37 shows that adding a simple Zener diode on top
VCC
of the limiting resistor, offers a better precision since what
matters now is the internal 8.7 V VCC breakdown, plus the
Zener voltage. A resistor in series with the Zener diodes
keeps the maximum current in the VCC pin below the
maximum rating of 15 mA just before tripping the OVP.

Over Power Compensation
Over Power Compensation or Protection (OPP)
represents a way to limit the effects of the propagation
delay when the converter is supplied from its highest input
voltage. The propagation delay naturally extends the
power capability of any current−limited converter.
Figure 38 explains why. The main parameter is the on
slope, that is to say, the pace at which the inductor current
grows−up when the power switch closes. For a flyback
controller, the slope is given by:
V
Son + in
Lp
At low line, Son is relatively low and does not bother the
final peak value. The situation differs at high line and
induces a higher peak current. Therefore, the power supply
output power capability increases with the input voltage.
Let us a take a look at a simple example. Suppose the peak
current is 700 mA:
Lp = 1.0 mH
Vin lowline = 100 Vdc
Vin highline = 350 Vdc
Ipeak,max = 700 mA
tprop = 100 ns
(eq. 4)
Pout + 1 I2
F
L h
2 peak, final SW p
where Lp is the transformer magnetizing/primary
inductance and Vin , the input voltage.
As the internal logic takes some time to react, the switch
gate shutdown does not immediately occur when the
maximum power limit is detected (just before activating
the overload protection circuit). Clearly speaking, it can
take up to 100 ns for the NCP1027 current sense
comparator to propagate through the various logical gates
before reaching the power switch and finally shutting it off.
This is the well−known propagation delay noted tprop .
Unfortunately, during this time, the current keeps growing
as Figure 38 depicts. The peak current will therefore be
troubled by this propagation delay. The formula to obtain
the final value is simply:
V
Ipeak, final + in t prop ) Ipeak, max
Lp
(eq. 6)
Where: Fsw is the switching frequency and h the efficiency.
Usually h is bigger in high line conditions than in low line
conditions. This formula is valid for a Discontinuous
Conduction Mode flyback.
From Equation 5, we can calculate the final peak current
in both conditions:
Ipeak,final = (100/1m) x 100n + 700m = 710 mA at low line.
Ipeak,final = (350/1m) x 100n + 700m = 735 mA at high line.
From Equation 6, we can have an idea of the maximum
output power capability again, in both conditions with
respective low and high line efficiency numbers of 78%
and 82% for instance:
Pout,lowline = 0.5
0.712

0.78 = 12.8 W

(eq. 5)
http://onsemi.com

NCP1027
This difference might not be seen as a problem, but some
design specifications impose stringent conditions on the
maximum output current capability, regardless the line
input. Hence the need for an OPP input…
Since we want to limit the power to 12.8 W at high line,
let us calculate the needed peak current:
From equation 6: Ipeak +
10 kW and ROPPU made of a series string of 4
1.0 MW
resistors plus a 10−turn 1.0 MW potentiometer set at its
maximum value. An amp−meter is inserted in series with
pin 7 and a volt−meter monitors its voltage with respect to
ground. Once the power supply is powered, slowly rotate
the potentiometer and observe both voltage and current
going up at pin 7. At a certain time, as voltage and current
increase, the controller will shut down the power supply.
The current at this time is the one we are looking for.
Suppose these experiments lead to 80 mA with a pin 7
activation voltage of 2.45 V. Final resistor equations are:
VbulkH = 375 Vdc ; the maximum voltage at which OPP
must shut down the controller
VbulkL = 200 Vdc ; the minimum voltage below which

setpoint by 6% roughly when Vin equals 350 Vdc.

couple voltage/current present on pin 7. Figure 39 shows
how to arrange components around the controller to obtain

Ramp Compensation
When operating in Continuous Conduction Mode
(CCM), current−mode power supplies can exhibit
so−called sub−harmonic oscillations. To cure this problem,
the designer must inject ramp compensation. The ramp can
either be added to the current sense information or directly
subtracted from the feedback signal. Figure 40 details the
internal arrangement of the ramp compensation circuitry.
First, you need to know the required injected current and
the voltage across pin 7 to start activating OPP.

running the power supply in conditions where it must shut
down (e.g. highest input voltage and maximum output
current per specification). For this, ROPPL can be put to

Skip−Cycle
Skip cycle offers an efficient way to reduce the standby
power by skipping unwanted cycles at light loads.
However, the recurrent frequency in skip often enters the
audible range and a high peak current obviously generates
acoustic noise in the transformer. The noise takes its origins
in the resonance of the transformer mechanical structure
which is excited by the skipping pulses. A possible
solution, successfully implemented in the NCP1200 series,
also authorizes skip cycle but only when the power demand
as dropped below a given level. This is what Figure 44

Figure 46. Primary Inductance Current
Evolution in CCM
As a result, the Flyback voltage which is reflected on the
drain at the switch opening cannot be larger than the input
voltage. When selecting components, you thus must adopt
a turn ratio which adheres to the following equation:
N(Vout ) Vf) t Vin, min t Vin min (eq. 14) . In our case,
since we operate from a 120 V DC rail while delivering
5.0 V, we can select a reflected voltage of 110 V
DC maximum: 120−110 > 0. Therefore, the turn ratio
Np:Ns must be smaller than
turn ratio, Vout the output voltage, Vf the
secondary diode forward drop and finally, Ipeak
the maximum peak current. Worse case occurs
when the SMPS is very close to regulation, e.g.
the Vout target is almost reached and Ipeak is still
pushed to the maximum. For this design, we have
selected our maximum voltage around 650 V (at
Vin = 375 Vdc). This voltage is given by the RCD
clamp installed from the drain to the bulk
voltage. We will see how to calculate it later on.

2. Lateral MOSFETs have a poorly doped

sustain the avalanche. A traditional RCD

protect the MOSFET. In some low power

Figure 47. Different Options to Clamp the Leakage Spike
Figure 47a: The simple capacitor limits the voltage
according to Equation 14. This option is only valid for low
power applications, e.g. below 5.0 W, otherwise chances
exist to destroy the MOSFET. After evaluating the leakage
inductance, you can compute C with Equation 15. Typical
values are between 100 pF and up to 470 pF. Large
capacitors increase capacitive losses…

Power Dissipation and Heatsinking
The NCP1027 hosting a power switch circuit and a
controller, it is mandatory to properly manage the heat
generated by losses. If no precaution is taken, risks exist to
trigger the internal thermal shutdown (TSD). To help
dissipating the heat, the PCB designer must foresee large
copper areas around the PDI7 package. When surrounded
by a surface greater than 1.0 cm@ of 35 mm copper, it
becomes possible to drop the thermal resistance
junction−to−ambient, RqJA down to 75°C/W and thus
dissipate more power. The maximum power the device can
clamp is usually selected 50−80 V above the reflected
value N (Vout + Vf). The diode needs to be a fast one and
an MUR160 represents a good choice. One major
drawback of the RCD network lies in its dependency upon
the peak current. Worse case occurs when Ipeak and Vin are
maximum and Vout is close to reach the steady−state value.
Figure 47c: This option is probably the most expensive
of all three but it offers the best protection degree. If you
need a very precise clamping level, you must implement a
Zener diode or a TVS. There are little technology
differences behind a standard Zener diode and a TVS.
However, the die area is far bigger for a transient suppressor
than that of Zener. A 5.0 W Zener diode, like the 1N5388B,
will accept 180 W peak power if it lasts less than 8.3 ms.
If the peak current in the worse case (e.g. when the PWM
circuit maximum current limit works) multiplied by the
nominal Zener voltage exceeds these 180 W, then the diode
will be destroyed when the supply experiences overloads.
A transient suppressor like the P6KE200 still dissipates
5.0 W of continuous power, but is able to accept surges up
to 600 W @ 1.0 ms. Select the Zener or TVS clamping
level between 40 to 80 V above the reflected output voltage
when the supply is heavily loaded.

RqJA
which gives around 930 mW for an ambient of 50°C and a
maximum junction of 120°C. The losses inherent to the
switch circuit RDS(on) can be theoretically evaluated, but
the final prototype evaluation must include board
measurements to confirm that the junction temperature
stays within safe limits. Figure 48 gives a possible layout
to help dropping the thermal resistance. When measured on
a 70 mm (2 oz.) copper thickness PCB, we obtained a
thermal resistance of 75°C/W.

junction−to−ambient.
When routing the printed circuit, it is important to keep
high impedance line very short, like the brown−out signal
and the OPP input if used.
to remove unwanted spikes, although less problematic than
in DCM operation. On the primary side, a resistive network
senses the input bulk voltage and prevents the controller
from turning on for input voltages below 100 Vdc. The
auxiliary winding delivers 20 V nominal and thus offers
comfortable margin when the converter enters standby. As
we do not use any OPP, pin 7 goes to ground and offers
extended possibility to layout more copper area.
Application Diagram
Figure 49 displays the final application schematic. The
output uses a TLV431 whose low bias current represents an
advantage for low standby power switch mode supplies.
