Operation of each block (1) Startup circuit The IC integrates a startup circuit having withstand voltage of 750V to achieve low power consumption. Fig.1 to Fig.3 show connections. Turning on the power, capacitor C2 connected to the VCC terminal is charged and the voltage increases due to the current fed from the startup circuit to the VCC terminal. If the ON threshold voltage of the under-voltage lockout circuit (UVLO) is exceeded, the power for internal operation is turned on, and the IC starts operating. The current supplied from the VH terminal to the VCC terminal is approximately 6.5mA(Typ.) when VCC = 0V. As the VCC voltage increases, the supply current decreases. A resister of 2kΩ is connected in series to the VH terminal C1 Startup circuit current RVH VH Startup circuit control signal for short-circuit protection of the VCC terminal. 8 start 6 VCC C2 Fig.1 Startup circuit 1 (Half-wave) Fig.1 shows a typical connection where the VH terminal is connected to the half-wave rectifier circuit of AC input voltage. The startup time of this connection is the longest in 3 types of connection. Fig.2 shows the connection where the VH terminal is connected to the full-wave rectifier circuit of AC input voltage. The startup time of this connection is approximately half of the connection shown in Fig.1. Fig.3 shows the connection where the VH terminal is connected to the back of rectification and smoothing of AC input voltage. The startup time of this connection is the shortest in 3 types. In this connection, however, even if the AC input voltage is shut down after the IC enters the latch mode, the voltage charged in C1 is kept impressed to the VH terminal, requiring much time for the latch mode to be reset. It takes approximately several minutes to reset the latch mode, although the time varies depending on conditions. Fig.2 Startup circuit 2 (Full-wave) If the VCC terminal voltage exceeds the ON threshold voltage and the IC starts operating, the startup circuit is shut down and the VH terminal current decreases to several 10 to several 100uA. After the startup, the IC goes into switching operation, and is operated with the power supplied from the auxiliary winding. If the overload or overvoltage protection is actuated, causing the IC to enter the latch mode, then the startup circuit is subjected to ON/OFF control to maintain the VCC voltage within the 12V to 13V (typ.) range. Fig.3 Startup circuit 3 (Rectification) At light load or during OCP delay time, the Vcc voltage avoids dropping to UVLO off threshold level. Then the startup circuit is subjected to ON/OFF control to maintain the VCC voltage within the 11V to 12.5V (typ.) range. Fuji Electric Co., Ltd. AN-085E Rev.1.0 Apr-2011 13 http://www.fujielectric.co.jp/products/semiconductor/ FA5639 (2) Oscillator Switching frequency This oscillator is used to determine the switching frequency. The switching frequency in the normal operation mode is set to 100kHz within the IC. To minimize the loss of power in the standby state, this IC is equipped with a function of automatically decreasing the switching frequency under light load. When the FB terminal voltage decreases down to 1.2V (typ.) or lower under light load, the frequency decreases almost linearly proportional to the FB terminal voltage.( See Fig.4) The minimum frequency, Fmin, has been set to 0.45kHz (typ.). In addition to trigger signals for determining switching frequency, the oscillator generates pulse signals for determining the maximum duty cycle and ramp signals for performing slope compensation. Fig.4 Oscillation frequency (3) Current comparator & PWM latch circuit The IC performs current mode control. Fig.5 shows a circuit block for basic operations, and Fig.6 shows a timing chart. The polarity of the current detection voltage of the IS terminal is negative. The GND of the IC is connected between the current detection resistor Rs and the MOSFET. (See Fig.5) C1 OSC 1 shot Rs IS comp. A trigger signal having the switching frequency that is output from the oscillator is input to the PWM latch (F.F.) through the one-shot circuit as a set signal. Then the output of the PWM latch as well as the OUT terminal voltage reaches the High state. On the other hand, the current comparator (IS comp.) monitors the MOSFET current, and if the threshold voltage is reached, a reset signal is output. When a reset signal is input, the output of PWM latch (F.F.) as well as the OUT terminal voltage reaches the Low state. The ON pulse width of the OUT terminal is thus controlled with the threshold voltage of the current comparator (IS comp.). The output is controlled by changing the threshold voltage of this IS comp. with feedback signals. As shown in Fig.7, the FB terminal voltage is level-shifted by a reverse amplifier and input into the current comparator (IS comp.) as the threshold voltage. In addition, -1V reference voltage is input inside the IC to regulate the maximum input threshold voltage of the IS terminal, VthIS1 (overcurrent control threshold). The reverse amplifier output or the maximum IS terminal input threshold voltage, VthIS1, whichever is higher, is given precedence as the IS terminal threshold voltage. (Example: When the output of the reverse amplifier is -0.5V in a product whose maximum threshold voltage of the IS terminal, VthIS1, is -0.5V, the output of the reverse amplifier is given precedence and thus the current comparator is reversed when the IS terminal voltage reaches -0.5V.) S Q 5 OUT R F.F. 3 IS 4 GND Fig.5 Current mode basic operation circuit block Fig.6 Current mode basic operation timing chart Fuji Electric Co., Ltd. AN-085E Rev.1.0 Apr-2011 14 http://www.fujielectric.co.jp/products/semiconductor/ FA5639 In normal operation, the output voltage of the power supply is maintained constant by changing the threshold voltage of the current comparator via the FB terminal voltage. When the output voltage decreases, the feedback circuit increases the FB voltage to allow the threshold voltage of the current comparator to scale out to Low, thus increasing the MOSFET current. The maximum input threshold voltage of the IS terminal, VthIS1 (-1V) controls the maximum current of the MOSFET. If the FB terminal voltage increases under overload, the output of the reverse amplifier scales out to Low, decreasing down to lower than VthIS1. The threshold voltage of the IS terminal is thus controlled not to exceed VthIS1. The oscillator outputs pulses for determining the maximum duty cycle. Using these pulses, the maximum duty cycle has been set to 85% (typ.). (4) One shot circuit (minimum ON width) When the MOSFET is turned on, a surge current is generated due to discharge corresponding to the capacitance of the main circuit and gate drive current. If this surge current reaches the IS terminal threshold voltage, the current comparator output is reversed, and consequently normal pulses may not be generated from the OUT terminal. To avoid this phenomenon, a minimum ON width of OUT terminal output is set within the one-shot circuit block of the IC. If a trigger signal having the switching frequency is input from the oscillator, a pulse having a specific width is output as a PWM latch (F.F.) set signal. Since the set signal has priority over the input signal of the PWM latch, the output of the PWM latch (F.F.) is not reversed while the set signal from the one-shot circuit is being input, even if a reset signal is input from the current comparator (IS comp.) (See Fig.5) As a result, the input to the IS terminal is kept invalid for the specified period of time immediately after the output pulse is generated from the OUT terminal (minimum ON width), and made not to respond to the surge current at turn-on. (See Fig.8) This minimum ON width function eliminates the need of a noise filter for the IS terminal in principle. The minimum ON width is usually set to 900ns (typ.) in normal operations, and to 280ns (typ.) at startup or rebooting to prevent the transient MOSFET drain voltage from surging. Fig.7 Current comparator Minimum ON width 1shot output (set pulse) OUT pin voltage IS pin voltage IS pin threshold voltage Output pulse does not stop here because of this minimum ON width. Fig.8 Minimum ON width OSC 1 shot CLR OFF(FB) S Q 2 FB In addition, an exclusive comparator is integrated to keep the output pulse at zero under no load. (See Fig.9) This comparator reverses its output when the FB terminal 5 OUT R F.F. voltage decreases down to 400mV (typ.), preventing a set Fig.9 Output shutdown function of FB pin pulse to be input to the PWM latch (F.F.). The output is thus maintained in Low state and switching is stopped. Fuji Electric Co., Ltd. AN-085E Rev.1.0 Apr-2011 15 http://www.fujielectric.co.jp/products/semiconductor/ FA5639 (5)Overload protection circuit Detecting overload, the overload protection (OLP) circuit stops switching in case overload is continued for a specified period of time (200ms typ.) to protect the circuit. Overload detection is performed based on the FB terminal voltage. Fig.10 is a conceptual diagram of the operation. Fig.11 shows a circuit block. The overload protection is actuated when FB terminal voltage processed into a signal is detected with the OLP comparator, based on the overload delay time TdOLP (200ms typ.),which is the period from the overload detection with the built-in OLP timer to switching pulse stop When the output current increases and the FB terminal voltage increases up to VthOLP (4.2V typ.), overload is detected. Since the IS terminal voltage is equivalent to the maximum input threshold voltage VthIS1 (-1.0V typ.) at this time, the MOSFET current is limited, and the output voltage is no longer maintained. As soon as the overload is detected, the OLP timer starts counting the delay time up to the stop of the switching pulse. When specified overload protection delay time TdOLP (200ms typ.) has elapsed, the switching pulse output is stopped. If overload is reset and the FB voltage decreases down to VthOLP (4.2V typ.) before the overload protection delay time expires, switching continues. By interrupting the input voltage to decrease the VCC voltage to the OFF threshold voltage (8V typ.) or lower, the latch mode can be reset.

(See Fig.12) If the VCC voltage increases and exceeds 26V typ., which is the reference voltage of the comparator (OVP), the comparator output is reversed to High level, setting the latch circuit to perform latch shutdown. At this time, the startup circuit is subjected to ON/OFF control to maintain the latch mode, thus keeping the VCC voltage within the 12V or 13V (typ.) range. To cancel the latch mode, shut down the input voltage to cause brownout, as in the case of Since 65s (typ.) delay time has been set to the set input of the latch circuit, the latch mode is not entered even if the VCC terminal exceeds the detection voltage temporarily. 6 8 made to enter the Low state. The latch mode of the protection circuit is also reset. (9) Output circuit The push/pull structure output circuit drives the MOSFET directly. The peak output current of the OUT terminal is 0.5A (source) and 1.0A (sink) in the maximum absolute ratings. In a state in which the IC is stopped in the undervoltage VCC lockout circuit or operation is suspended in the latch mode, VCC Start up Circut actuated to stop IC operation, the OUT terminal is forcibly the overload protection.(latch type) VH The IC integrates an undervoltage lockout (UVLO) function to prevent circuit malfunction that might occur when power supply voltage decreases. When the VCC voltage increases from 0V and reaches 18V (typ.), the circuit starts operating. When the VCC decreases down to 8V (typ.), the circuit stops operating. In a state in which the undervoltage lockout function is Start up Management Logic ON UVLO or in an auto reset wait state by overload protection function, the OUT terminal is brought into the Low level, and the Monitor Ctrl ON MOSFET is interrupted.

(See Fig.13) By decreasing the LAT terminal voltage to 1.05V or lower, the IC enters the latch mode. To cancel the latch mode, shut down the input voltage to cause brownout, as in the case of the OVP.

Advice for designing (1) Startup To properly start or stop the power supply, a capacitor having appropriate capacitance must be selected. Fig.14 shows the VCC voltage at the time of startup when an appropriate capacitor is connected. When the power is turned on, the capacitor of the VCC is charged with the current supplied from the startup circuit, and the voltage increases. When the VCC reaches the ON threshold voltage, the IC starts operating. The IC is operated based on the voltage supplied from the auxiliary winding. Note that during the period immediately after startup until the voltage of the auxiliary winding starts up, the VCC decreases. Select a capacitor for the VCC that does not allow the VCC to decrease down to the OFF threshold voltage. Specifically, a VCC terminal capacitor whose OFF threshold voltage is 9V or higher is recommended. If the capacitance of the VCC terminal is too small, VCC decreases to lower than the OFF threshold voltage before the voltage of the auxiliary winding starts up as shown by Fig.15. In this case, the VCC repeats up/down operation between ON and OFF threshold voltages, and consequently the power supply cannot be turned on. However, if the capacitance of the capacitor of the VCC terminal is increased, the startup time is made longer. In such cases, the circuit shown in Fig.16 can balance the capacitance and the startup time. By setting C1 to less than C2, the startup time can be kept short. Since current is supplied via C2 after startup, the VCC terminal voltage hold time can be kept long even under sudden change conditions.
