NCP1207
PWM Current−Mode
Controller for Free Running
Quasi−Resonant Operation
The NCP1207 combines a true current mode modulator and a
demagnetization detector to ensure full borderline/critical
Conduction Mode in any load/line conditions and minimum drain
voltage switching (Quasi−Resonant operation). Due to its inherent skip
cycle capability, the controller enters burst mode as soon as the power
demand falls below a predetermined level. As this happens at low peak
current, no audible noise can be heard. An internal 8.0 s timer prevents
the free−run frequency to exceed 100 kHz (therefore below the 150 kHz
CISPR−22 EMI starting limit), while the skip adjustment capability lets
the user select the frequency at which the burst foldback takes place.
The Dynamic Self−Supply (DSS) drastically simplifies the
transformer design in avoiding the use of an auxiliary winding to supply
the NCP1207. This feature is particularly useful in applications where
the output voltage varies during operation (e.g. battery chargers). Due to
its high−voltage technology, the IC is directly connected to the
high−voltage DC rail. As a result, the short−circuit trip point is not
dependent upon any VCC auxiliary level.
The transformer core reset detection is done through an auxiliary
winding which, brought via a dedicated pin, also enables fast
Overvoltage Protection (OVP). Once an OVP has been detected, the IC
permanently latches off.
Finally, the continuous feedback signal monitoring implemented with
an Overcurrent Fault Protection (OCP) circuitry makes the final design
rugged and reliable.

NCP1207
Application Information
Introduction
The NCP1207 implements a standard current mode
architecture where the switch−off time is dictated by the
peak current setpoint whereas the core reset detection
triggers the turn−on event. This component represents the
ideal candidate where low part−count is the key parameter,
particularly in low−cost AC−DC adapters, consumer
electronics, auxiliary supplies, etc. Thanks to its
high−performance High−Voltage technology, the NCP1207
incorporates all the necessary components / features needed
to build a rugged and reliable Switchmode Power Supply
(SMPS):
•
• Transformer core reset detection: borderline / critical
•
•
•
VRIPPLE = 2 V
VCCOFF = 12 V
VCC
•
Dynamic Self−Supply
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 some
simple logical equations:
POWER−ON: IF VCC < VCCOFF THEN Current Source
is ON, no output pulses
IF VCC decreasing > VCCON THEN Current Source is
OFF, output is pulsing
IF VCC increasing < VCCOFF THEN Current Source is
ON, output is pulsing
Typical values are: VCCOFF = 12 V, VCCON = 10 V
To better understand the operational principle, Figure 16’s
sketch offers the necessary light.
VCCON = 10 V

•
operation is ensured whatever the operating conditions
are. As a result, there are virtually no primary switch
turn−on losses and no secondary diode recovery losses.
The converter also stays a first−order system and
accordingly eases the feedback loop design.
Quasi−resonant operation: by delaying the turn−on
event, it is possible to restart the MOSFET in the
minimum of the drain−source wave, ensuring reduced
EMI / video noise perturbations. In nominal power
conditions, the NCP1207 operates in Borderline
Conduction Mode (BCM) also called Critical
Conduction Mode.
Dynamic Self−Supply (DSS): due to its Very High
Voltage Integrated Circuit (VHVIC) technology,
ON Semiconductor’s NCP1207 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 NCP1207. 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).
Overvoltage Protection (OVP): by sampling the plateau
voltage on the demagnetization winding, the NCP1207
goes into latched fault condition whenever an
overvoltage condition is detected. The controller stays
fully latched in this position until the VCC is cycled
down 4.0 V, e.g. when the user un−plugs the power
supply from the mains outlet and re−plugs it.
External latch trip point: by externally forcing a level
on the OVP greater than the internal setpoint, it is
possible to latchoff the IC, e.g. with a signal coming
from a temperature sensor.
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 transformer. This
option also offers the ability to fix the maximum
switching frequency when entering light load
conditions.
Overcurrent Protection (OCP): by continuously
monitoring the FB line activity, NCP1207 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.

NCP1207
The DSS behavior actually depends on the internal IC
consumption and the MOSFET’s gate charge Qg. If we
select a MOSFET like the MTP2N60E, Qg equals 22 nC
(max). With a maximum switching frequency selected at
75 kHz, the average power necessary to drive the MOSFET
(excluding the driver efficiency and neglecting various
voltage drops) is:
Fsw ⋅ Qg ⋅ VCC with:
Fsw = maximum switching frequency
Qg = MOSFET’s gate charge
VCC = VGS level applied to the gate
To obtain the output current, simply divide this result by
VCC: Idriver = FSW ⋅ Qg = 1.6 mA. The total standby power
consumption at no−load will therefore heavily rely on the
internal IC consumption plus the above driving current
(altered by the driver’s efficiency). Suppose that the IC is
supplied from a 350 VDC line. The current flowing through
pin 8 is a direct image of the NCP1207 consumption
(neglecting the switching losses of the HV current source).
If ICC2 equals 2.3 mA @ TJ = 60°C, then the power
dissipated (lost) by the IC is simply: 350 V x 2.3 mA =
805 mW. For design and reliability reasons, it would be
interested to reduce this source of wasted power that
increase the die temperature. This can be achieved by using
different methods:
1. Use a MOSFET with lower gate charge Qg.
2. Connect pin 8 through a diode (1N4007 typically) to
one of the mains input. The average value on pin 8
When using Figure 17 option, it is important to check
the absence of any negative ringing that could occur
on pin 8. The resistor in series should help to damp
any parasitic LC network that would ring when
suddenly applying the power to the IC. Also, since
the power disappears during 10 ms (half−wave
rectification), CVCC should be calculated to supply
the IC during these holes in the supply
3. Permanently force the VCC level above VCCH with
an auxiliary winding. It will automatically
disconnect the internal startup source and the IC will
be fully self−supplied from this winding. Again, the
total power drawn from the mains will significantly
decrease. Make sure the auxiliary voltage never
exceeds the 16 V limit.
Skipping Cycle Mode
The NCP1207 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 18) and
follows the following formula:
1 Lp Ip 2 Fsw D

2. Our power contribution
becomes mainsPEAK
example drops to: 223 V x 2.3 mA = 512 mW. If a
resistor is installed between the mains and the diode,
you further force the dissipation to migrate from the
package to the resistor. The resistor value should
account for low−line startups.

current sense comparator permanently resets the latch and the
next clock cycle (given by the demagnetization detection) is
ignored: we are skipping cycles as shown by Figure 20. As
soon as the feedback voltage goes up again, there can be two
situations: the recurrent period is small and a new
demagnetization detection (next wave) signal triggers the
NCP1207. To the opposite, in low output power conditions, no
more ringing waves are present on the drain and the toggling
of the current sense comparator together with the internal 5 s
timeout initiates a new cycle start. In normal operating
conditions, e.g. when the drain oscillations are generous, the
demagnetization comparator can detect the 50 mV crossing
and gives the “green light”, alone, to re−active the power
switch. However, when skip cycle takes place (e.g. at low
output power demands), the restart event slides along the drain
ringing waveforms (actually the valley locations) which
decays more or less quickly, depending on the
Lprimary−Cparasitic network damping factor. The situation can
thus quickly occur where the ringing becomes too weak to be
detected by the demagnetization comparator: it then
permanently stays locked in a given position and can no longer
deliver the “green light” to the controller. To help in this
situation, the NCP1207 implements a 5 s timeout generator:
each time the 50 mV crossing occurs, the timeout is reset. So,
as long as the ringing becomes too low, the timeout generator
starts to count and after 5 s, it delivers its “green light”. If the
skip signal is already present then the controller restarts;
otherwise the logic waits for it to set the drive output high.
Figure 20 depicts these two different situations:

The skip level selection is done through a simple resistor
inserted between the current sense input and the sense element.
Every time the NCP1207 output driver goes low, a 200 A
source forces a current to flow through the sense pin
(Figure 19): when the driver is high, the current source is off
and the current sense information is normally processed. As
soon as the driver goes low, the current source delivers 200 A
and develops a ground referenced voltage across Rskip. If this
voltage is below the feedback voltage, the current sense
comparator stays in the high state and the internal latch can be
triggered by the next clock cycle. Now, if because of a low load
mode the feedback voltage is below Rskip level, then the

Demagnetization Detection
The core reset detection is done by monitoring the voltage
activity on the auxiliary winding. This voltage features a
FLYBACK polarity. The typical detection level is fixed at

Overvoltage Protection
The overvoltage protection works by sampling the plateau
voltage 4.5 s after the turn−off sequence. This delay
guarantees a clean plateau, providing that the leakage
inductance ringing has been fully damped. If this would not
be the case, the designer should install a small RC damper
across the transformer primary inductance connections.
Figure 24 shows where the sampling occurs on the auxiliary
winding.

Figure 22. Internal Pad Implementation
An internal timer prevents any restart within 8.0 s further
to the driver going−low transition. This prevents the
switching frequency to exceed (1 / (TON + 8.0 s)) but also
avoid false leakage inductance tripping at turn−off. In some
cases, the leakage inductance kick is so energetic, that a
slight filtering is necessary.
The 1207 demagnetization detection pad features a
specific component arrangement as detailed by Figure 22. In
this picture, the zener diodes network protect the IC against
any potential ESD discharge that could appear on the pins.
The first ESD diode connected to the pad, exhibits a parasitic
capacitance. When this parasitic capacitance (10 pF
typically) is combined with Rdem, a restart delay is created
and the possibility to switch right in the drain−source wave
exists. This guarantees QR operation with all the associated
benefits (low EMI, no turn−on losses etc.). Rdem should be
calculated to limit the maximum current flowing through
pin 1 to less than +3 mA/−2 mA. If during turn−on, the
auxiliary winding delivers 30 V (at the highest line level),
then the minimum Rdem value is defined by:
(30 V + 0.7 V) / 2 mA = 14.6 k.
This value will be further increased to introduce a restart
delay and also a slight filtering in case of high leakage
energy.

power.

Figure 24. A voltage sample is taken 4.5 s after

When an OVP condition has been detected, the NCP1207
enters a latchoff phase and stops all switching operations.
The controller stays fully latched in this position and the
DSS is still active, keeping the VCC between 5.3 V/12 V as
in normal operations. This state lasts until the VCC is cycled
down 4 V, e.g. when the user unplugs the power supply from
the mains outlet.
By default, the OVP comparator is biased to a 5 V
reference level and pin 1 is routed via a divide by 1.44
network. As a result, when Vpin1 reaches 7.2 V, the OVP
comparator is triggered. The threshold can thus be adjusted
by either modifying the power winding to auxiliary winding
turn ratios to match this 7.2 V level, or insert a resistor from
pin1 to ground to cope with your design requirement.

NCP1207
Latching Off the NCP1207
In certain cases, it can be very convenient to externally
shut down permanently the NCP1207 via a dedicated signal,
e.g. coming from a temperature sensor. The reset occurs
when the user unplugs the power supply from the mains
outlet. To trigger the latchoff, a CTN (Figure 25) or a simple
NPN transistor (Figure 26) can do the work.
Power Dissipation
The NCP1207 is directly supplied from the DC rail
through the internal DSS circuitry. The DSS being an
auto−adaptive circuit (e.g. the ON/OFF Duty Cycle adjusts
itself depending on the current demand), the current flowing
through the DSS is therefore the direct image of the
NCP1207 current consumption. The total power dissipation
can be evaluated using: (VHVDC 11 V) ICC2. If we
operate the device on a 250 Vac rail, the maximum rectified
voltage can go up to 350 Vdc. As a result, the worse case
dissipation occurs at the maximum switching frequency and
the highest line. The dissipation is actually given by the
internal consumption of the NCP1207 when driving the
selected MOSFET. The best method to evaluate this total
consumption is probably to run the final circuit from a
50 Vdc source applied to pin 8 and measure the average
current flowing into this pin. Suppose that we find 2.0 mA,
meaning that the DSS Duty Cycle will be 2.0/7.0 = 28.6%.
From the 350 Vdc rail, the part will dissipate:
350 V 2.0 mA 700 mW (however this 2.0 mA number
will drop at higher operating junction temperatures).
A DIP8 package offers a junction−to−ambient thermal
resistance RJA of 100°C/W. The maximum power
dissipation can thus be computed knowing the maximum
operating ambient temperature (e.g. 70°C) together with
the maximum allowable junction temperature (125°C):

do not reach the worse consumption budget imposed by the
operating conditions. Several solutions exist to cure this
trouble:
• The first one consists in adding some copper area around
the NCP1207 DIP8 footprint. By adding a min pad area
of 80 mm2 of 35 m copper (1 oz.) RJA drops to about
75°C/W. Maximum power then grows up to 730 mW.
• A resistor Rdrop needs to be inserted with pin 8 to
a) avoid negative spikes at turn−off (see below)
b) split the power budget between this resistor and the
package. The resistor is calculated by leaving at least 50 V
on pin 8 at minimum input voltage (suppose 100 Vdc in
Figure 26. A simple transistor arrangement allows
to trigger the latchoff by an external signal
Shutting Off the NCP1207
Shutdown can easily be implemented through a simple
NPN bipolar transistor as depicted by Figure 27. When OFF,
Q1 is transparent to the operation. When forward biased, the
transistor pulls the FB pin to ground (VCE(sat) ≈ 200 mV) and
permanently disables the IC. A small time constant on the
transistor base will avoid false triggering (Figure 27).

NCP1207
• If the power consumption budget is really too high for 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 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 330 A typical (ICC3
parameter). As a result, the VCC level slowly discharges
toward 0. When this level crosses 5.3 V typical, the
controller enters a new startup phase by turning the current
source on: VCC rises toward 12 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 28 shows the evolution of the signals in
presence of a fault.
DSS alone, connect a diode between the auxiliary
winding and the VCC pin which will disable the DSS
operation (VCC 10 V).
The SOIC package offers a 178°C/W thermal resistor.
Again, adding some copper area around the PCB footprint
will help decrease this number: 12 mm 12 mm to drop
RJA down to 100°C/W with 35 m copper thickness (1 oz.)
or 6.5 mm 6.5 mm with 70 m copper thickness (2 oz.).
As one can see, we do not recommend using the SO−8
package and the DSS if the part operates at high switching
frequencies. In that case, an auxiliary winding is the best
solution.
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, NCP1207
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 recovers when
the fault condition disappears.
During the startup phase, the peak current is pushed to the
maximum until the output voltage reaches its target and the
VCC
Soft−Start
The NCP1207 features an internal 1 ms Soft−Start to
soften the constraints occurring in the power supply during
startup. It is activated during the power on sequence. 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). The Soft−Start is also activated during the
overcurrent 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 5.3 V, the latchoff
voltage occurring during OCP.

Calculating the VCC Capacitor
As the above section describes, the fall down sequence
depends upon the VCC level: how long does it take for the
VCC line to go from 12 V to 10 V? The required time depends
on the startup sequence of your system, i.e. when 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 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 6.0 ms. 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 the MOSFET
drive, establishes at 1.8 mA (e.g. with an 11 nC MOSFET),
we can calculate the required capacitor using the following

formula: t V C, with V = 2.0 V. Then for a wanted
i
t of 10 ms, C equals 9.0F or 22F for a standard value.
When an overload condition occurs, the IC blocks its
internal circuitry and its consumption drops to 330 A
typical. This happens at VCC = 10 V and it remains stuck
until VCC reaches 5.3 V: we are in latchoff phase. Again,
using the calculated 22 F and 330 A current consumption,
this latchoff phase lasts: 313 ms.
HV Pin Recommended Protection
When the user unplugs a power supply built with a QR
controller such as the NCP1207, two phenomena can
appear:
1. A negative ringing can take place on pin8 due to a
resonance between the primary inductance and
the bulk capacitor. As any CMOS device, the
NCP1207 is sensitive to negative voltages that
could appear on it’s pins and could create an
internal latchup condition.
2. When the bulk capacitor discharges, the internal
latch is reset by the voltage developed over the
sense resistor and the ON time expands as less
voltage is available. When the high−voltage rail
becomes too low, the gate drives permanently
stays high since no reset occurs. This situation is
not desirable in many applications.
For the above reasons, we strongly recommend to add a
high−voltage diode like a 1N4007 between the bulk
capacitor and the VCC pin. When the bulk level collapses, it
naturally shuts the controller down and eradicates the two
above problems.
