Description
LinkZero-LP is an upgrade to the popular LinkSwitch-LP, the
industry’s lowest component count charger/adapter and standby
power switcher IC. The LinkZero-LP controller incorporates new
technology which enables the device to automatically enter into
and wake up from no-load mode while taking less than 5 mW from
the AC power. IEC 62301 specifies measurements of standby
power to a minimum accuracy of 10 mW, and so LinkZero-LP’s
consumption of substantially less than 5 mW at 230 VAC rounds to
zero based on the IEC definition. This low power level is also
immeasurable on most power meters. The tightly specified
FEEDBACK (FB) pin voltage reference enables universal input
primary side regulated power supplies with accurate constant
voltage from 5% to full load. The start-up and operating power are
derived directly from the DRAIN pin which eliminates start-up
circuitry. The internal oscillator frequency is jittered to significantly
reduce both quasi-peak and average EMI, minimizing filter cost.

LinkZero-LP Functional Description
LinkZero-LP comprises a 700 V power MOSFET switch with a
power supply controller on the same die. Unlike conventional
PWM (pulse width modulation) controllers, it uses a simple ON/
OFF control to regulate the output voltage. The controller
consists of the following circuits, an oscillator, feedback (sense)
5.85 V regulator, BYPASS pin under/overvoltage protection,
over-temperature protection, frequency jittering, current limit,
leading edge blanking BYPASS pin clamp in power down and
bypass mode. The controller includes a proprietary power
down mode that automatically reduces standby consumption to
levels that are immeasurable on most power meters.
sampled at the beginning of each cycle. If high, the power
MOSFET is turned on for that cycle (enabled), otherwise the
power MOSFET remains off (disabled). Since the sampling is
done only at the beginning of each cycle, subsequent changes
in the FEEDBACK pin voltage during the remainder of the cycle
are ignored.
Feedback Input CC Mode
When the FEEDBACK pin voltage at full load falls below 1.70 V,
the oscillator frequency linearly reduces to typically 43% at the
auto-restart threshold voltage of 0.9 V. This function limits the
power supply output power at output voltages below the rated
voltage regulation threshold VR (see Figure 1).
Power Down Mode
The device enters into power down mode (where MOSFET
switching is disabled) when the total load (power supply output
plus bias winding loads) has reduced to ~0.6% of full load. The
internal controller detects this condition by sensing when 160
cycles have been skipped twice with only one active switching
cycle in between the two sets of 160 skipped switching cycles.
During the power down period the BYPASS pin capacitor will
discharge from 5.85 V down to about 3 V at which point the
LinkZero-LP will wake up and charge the BYPASS pin back up
to 5.85 V. The wake up frequency is determined by the user
through the choice of the BYPASS pin capacitor value (see
Figure 22 for BYPASS pin capacitor choice). Once the BYPASS
pin has recharged 5.85 V LinkZero-LP senses if the load
condition has changed or not, if not the LinkZero-LP will enter
into a new power down cycle or otherwise resumes normal
operation (See Applications Example section for more details of
power down mode operation).
5.85 V Regulator
The BYPASS pin voltage is regulated by drawing a current from
the DRAIN whenever the MOSFET is off if needed to charge up
the BYPASS pin to a typical voltage of 5.85 V. When the
MOSFET is on, LinkZero-LP runs off of the energy stored in the
bypass capacitor. Extremely low power consumption of the
internal circuitry allows LinkZero-LP to operate continuously
from the current drawn from the DRAIN pin. A bypass
capacitor value of 0.1 µF is sufficient for both high frequency
decoupling and energy storage.
Oscillator
The typical oscillator frequency is internally set to an average of
100 kHz. An internal circuit senses the on-time of the MOSFET
switch and adjusts the oscillator frequency so that at large duty
cycle (low line voltage) the frequency is about 100 kHz and at
small duty cycle (high line voltage) the oscillator frequency is
about 78 kHz. This internal frequency adjustment is used to
make the peak power point constant over line voltage. Two
signals are generated from the oscillator: the maximum duty
cycle signal (DCMAX) and the clock signal that indicates the
beginning of a switching cycle.
The 6.5 V shunt regulator is only active in normal operation, and
when in power down mode a clamp at a higher voltage (typical
8.5 V) will clamp the BYPASS pin.
The oscillator incorporates circuitry that introduces a small
amount of frequency jitter, typically 6% of the switching frequency,
to minimize EMI. The modulation rate of the frequency jitter is
set to 1 kHz to optimize EMI reduction for both average and
quasi-peak emissions. The frequency jitter, which is proportional
to the oscillator frequency, should be measured with the
oscilloscope triggered at the falling edge of the drain voltage
waveform. The oscillator frequency is linearly reduced when the
FEEDBACK pin voltage is lowered from 1.70 V down to 1.37 V.
Feedback Input Circuit CV Mode
The feedback input circuit reference is set at 1.70 V at full load
and gradually reduces down to 1.37 V at no-load. When the
FEEDBACK pin voltage reaches a VFB reference voltage (1.70 V
to 1.37 V) depending on the load, a low logic level (disable) is
generated at the output of the feedback circuit. This output is
6.5 V Shunt Regulator and 8.5 V Clamp
In addition, there is a shunt regulator that helps maintain the
BYPASS pin at 6.5 V when current is provided to the BYPASS
pin externally. This facilitates powering the device externally
through a resistor from the bias winding or power supply output
in non-isolated designs, to decrease device dissipation and
increase power supply efficiency.
BYPASS Pin Undervoltage Protection
The BYPASS pin undervoltage circuitry disables the power
MOSFET when the BYPASS pin voltage drops below 4.85 V.
Once the BYPASS pin voltage drops below 4.85 V, it must rise
back to 5.85 V to enable (turn on) the power MOSFET.
BYPASS Pin Overvoltage Protection
If the BYPASS pin gets pulled above 6.5 V (BPSHUNT )and the
current into the shunt exceeds 6.5 mA a latch will be set and
the power MOSFET will stop switching. To reset the latch the
BYPASS pin has to be pulled down to below 1.5 V.
Over-Temperature Protection
The thermal shutdown circuit senses the die temperature. The
threshold is set at 142 °C typical with a 70 °C hysteresis. When
the die temperature rises above this threshold (142 °C) the power
MOSFET is disabled and remains disabled until the die temperature
falls by 70 °C, at which point the MOSFET is re-enabled.
Current Limit
The current limit circuit senses the current in the power MOSFET.
When this current exceeds the internal threshold (ILIMIT ), the
power MOSFET is turned off for the remaining of that cycle.
The leading edge blanking circuit inhibits the current limit

comparator for a short time (tLEB) after the power MOSFET is
turned on. This leading edge blanking time has been set so
that current spikes caused by capacitance and rectifier reverse
recovery time will not cause premature termination of the
MOSFET conduction.
Wire-wound types are recommended for designs that operate
≥132 VAC to withstand the instantaneous power when AC is
first applied as C1 and C2 charge.
The power supply utilizes simplified bias winding voltage
feedback, enabled by the LinkZero-LP ON/OFF control. The
voltage across C5 is determined by the FEEDBACK pin
reference voltage and the resistor divider formed by R3 and R4.
Capacitor C4 provides high frequency filtering on the FEEDBACK
pin to avoid switching cycle pulse bunching. The FEEDBACK
pin reference voltage, which varies with load, is set to 1.37 V at
no-load and gradually increases to 1.70 V at full load to provide
cable drop compensation. In the constant voltage (CV) region,
the LinkZero-LP device enables/disables switching cycles to
maintain the FEEDBACK pin reference voltage. Diode D6 and
low cost ceramic capacitor C5 provide rectification and filtering
of the primary feedback winding waveform. At increased loads,
beyond the maximum power threshold, the IC transitions into
the constant current (CC) region. In this region, the FEEDBACK
pin voltage begins to reduce as the power supply output voltage
falls. In order to maintain a constant output current, the internal
oscillator frequency is reduced in this region until it reaches
typically 48% of the starting frequency. When the FEEDBACK
pin voltage drops below the auto-restart threshold (typically
0.9 V on the FEEDBACK pin), the power supply enters the
auto-restart mode. In this mode, the power supply will turn off
for 1.2 s and then turn back on for 170 ms. The auto-restart
function reduces the average output current during an output
short-circuit condition.
Auto-Restart
In the event of a fault condition such as output short-circuit,
LinkZero-LP enters into auto-restart operation. An internal
counter clocked by the oscillator gets reset every time the
FEEDBACK pin voltage exceeds the FEEDBACK pin autorestart threshold voltage (VFB(AR) typical 0.9 V). If the FEEDBACK
pin voltage drops below VFB(AR) for more than 145 ms to 170 ms
depending on the line voltage, the power MOSFET switching is
disabled. The auto-restart alternately enables and disables the
switching of the power MOSFET at a duty cycle of typically 12%
until the fault condition is removed.
Open Loop Condition on the FEEDBACK Pin
When an open loop condition on the FEEDBACK pin is detected,
an internal pull up current source pulls the FEEDBACK pin up to
above 1.70 V and LinkZero-LP stops switching after 160 clock
cycles.
Applications Example
The circuit shown in Figure 4 is a typical isolated zero no-load 6 V,
350 mA, constant voltage, and constant current (CV/CC) output
power supply using LinkZero-LP.
AC input differential filtering is accomplished by the π filter formed
by C1, C2 and L1. The proprietary frequency jitter feature of the
LinkZero-LP eliminates the need for any Y capacitor or commonmode inductor. Wire-wound resistor RF1 is a fusible, flame proof
resistor which is used as a fuse as well as to limit inrush current.
The LinkZero-LP device is self biased through the DRAIN pin.
However, to improve efficiency at high line, an external bias may
be added using optional components diode D5 and resistor R2.

consumption is determined by the BYPASS pin capacitor C3.
No-load power consumption can be reduced by a capacitor
with higher value. Higher C3 capacitor values will tend to
increase the output ripple in PD mode - See LinkZero-LP
Design Considerations section below.
A clampless primary circuit is achieved due to the very tight
tolerance current limit trimming techniques used in manufacturing
the LinkZero-LP, plus the transformer construction techniques
used. The peak drain voltage is therefore limited to typically
less than 550 V at 265 VAC, providing significant margin to the
700 V minimum drain voltage specification (BVDSS).
When the LinkZero-LP is in PD mode, the time taken for the
BYPASS pin voltage to discharge to VBPPDRESET (~3 V) determines
the duration of the PD off-time. The duration of the PD off time
also determines the ripple on the output voltage.
Output rectification and filtering is achieved with output rectifier
D7 and filter capacitor C7. Due to the auto-restart feature, the
average short circuit output current is significantly less than 1 A,
allowing low current rating and low cost rectifier D7 to be used.
Output circuitry is designed to handle a continuous short circuit
on the power supply output. Although not necessary in this
design, a preload resistor may be used at the output of the
supply to reduce output voltage at no-load.
In either case, C5 is completely discharged through R3 and R4
during the PD off time (D5 prevents the BYPASS capacitor C3
being discharged through this path). C5 is therefore kept as
small as possible to reduce the power supply no-load input
power consumption associated with recharging this capacitor
at the start of the next PD on time. The minimum value of C5 is
determined by the time constant set up with the feedback
resistors R3 and R4 to avoid excessive cycle by cycle ripple on
C5 influencing the output voltage regulation. The typical choice
for C5 is between 100 nF and 330 nF.
LinkZero-LP Power Down (PD) Mode Design
Considerations
The LinkZero-LP goes into PD mode when the output power
supply load is reduced enough that 160 consecutive switching
cycles are skipped twice with only one active switching cycle in
between the two sets of 160 skipped switching cycles. This
corresponds to ~0.6% of the full load power capability of the
LinkZero-LP.
Even when the power supply output load is completely removed,
any preload resistor on the output and the components
connected to the bias winding still represent a load on the
transformer. The feedback circuitry connected to the bias winding
should therefore be designed to represent <0.6% of the power
supply full load. Otherwise LinkZero-LP will not be able to
detect a no-load condition on the output and will not enter PD
mode thereby disabling the benefit of zero no-load input power.
In the case of the design of Figure 4, the power supply full load
output power is 2.1 W (6 V, 350 mA). The bias winding load
should therefore be designed to be <<0.6% of this (<12.6 mW). In
the example of Figure 4, the average no-load voltage across
bias winding capacitor C5 is approximately 20 V. The loading of
R3, R4 and R2 (if used) should therefore be chosen to present
<12.6 mW load with this bias voltage. In the case shown, the R2
path consumes ~3.3 mW and R3 and R4 also consumes ~3.3 mW.
So the total consumption of 6.6 mW meets the criteria necessary
to ensure the power supply will enter PD mode when the power
supply load is removed. Adjusting the power consumption of
the circuitry connected to the bias winding can therefore be
used to adjust the power supply output power threshold at
which the LinkZero-LP goes into PD mode.
It can be seen therefore that, if desired, PD mode can be
avoided altogether simply by adding a preload resistor on the
output of the power supply or increasing the load on the bias
winding to >0.6% (plus margin) of the power supply maximum
power capability.
If components D5 and R2 are not used in Figure 4, this time is
determined purely by the choice of C3. If however D5 and R2
are used to provide an external BYPASS pin supply, then a
combination of the energy stored in C5 and C3 determine the
PD off time before the BYPASS pin voltage reaches the VBP(PU)
(~3 V).
When D5 and R2 are used, the minimum value of bias winding
capacitor C5 is again governed by voltage regulation performance
so the value of BYPASS pin capacitor C3 is typically reduced to
reduce PD off time period if required. A minimum C3 value of
47 nF is recommended.
PCB Layout Considerations
LinkZero-LP Layout Considerations
Layout
See Figure 5 for a recommended circuit board layout for
LinkZero-LP (U1).
Single Point Grounding
Use a single point ground (Kelvin) connection from the input
filter capacitor to the area of copper connected to the SOURCE
pins.
Bypass Capacitor (CBP), FEEDBACK Pin Noise Filter
Capacitor (CFB) and Feedback Resistors
To minimize loop area, these two capacitors should be physically
located as near as possible to the BYPASS and SOURCE pins,
and FEEDBACK pin and SOURCE pins respectively. Also note
that to minimize noise pickup, feedback resistors RFB1 and RFB2
are placed close to the FEEDBACK pin.
Primary Loop Area
The area of the primary loop that connects the input filter
capacitor, transformer primary and LinkZero-LP should be kept
as small as possible.
Primary Clamp Circuit
An external clamp may be used to limit peak voltage on the
DRAIN pin at turn off. This can be achieved by using an RCD
clamp or a Zener (~200 V) and diode clamp across the primary
winding. In all cases, to minimize EMI, care should be taken to
minimize the circuit path from the clamp components to the
transformer and LinkZero-LP (U1).

Figure 5. PCB Layout of a 2.1 W, 6 V, 350 mA Charger.
Thermal Considerations
The copper area underneath the LinkZero-LP (U1) acts not only
as a single point ground, but also as a heatsink. As it is
connected to the quiet source node, this area should be
maximized for good heat sinking of U1. The same applies to
the cathode of the output diode.
Y Capacitor
The placement of the Y-type capacitor (if used) should be
directly from the primary input filter capacitor positive terminal to
the common/return terminal of the transformer secondary.
Such a placement will route high magnitude common-mode
surge currents away from U1. Note: If an input π EMI filter is
used, the inductor in the π filter should be placed between the
negative terminals on the input filter capacitors.
Output Diode (DO)
For best performance, the area of the loop connecting the
secondary winding, the output diode (DO) and the output filter
capacitor (CO)should be minimized. In addition, sufficient
copper area should be provided at the anode and cathode
terminals of the diode for heat sinking. A larger area is preferred
at the electrically “quiet” cathode terminal. A large anode area
can increase high frequency conducted and radiated EMI.
Resistor RS and CS represent the secondary side RC snubber.
Quick Design Checklist
The following minimum set of tests is strongly recommended:
1. Maximum drain voltage – Verify that VDS does not exceed
660 V at the highest input voltage and peak (overload) output
power. This margin to the 700 V BVDSS specification gives
margin for design variation, especially in clampless designs.
2. Maximum drain current – At maximum ambient temperature,
maximum input voltage and peak output (overload) power,
verify drain current waveforms for any signs of transformer
saturation and excessive leading-edge current spikes at
startup. Repeat under steady state conditions and verify that
the leading-edge current spike event is below ILIMIT(MIN) at the
end of the tLEB(MIN). Under all conditions, the maximum drain
current should be below the specified absolute maximum
ratings.
3. Thermal check – At specified maximum output power,
minimum input voltage and maximum ambient temperature,
verify that the temperature specifications are not exceeded
for LinkZero-LP, transformer, output diode and output
capacitors. Enough thermal margin should be allowed for
part-to-part variation of the RDS(ON) of LinkZero-LP as specified in the data sheet. Under low line and maximum power,
maximum LinkZero-LP source pin temperature of 100 °C is
recommended to allow for these variations.
4. Negative drain voltages – clampless designs may allow the
drain voltage to ring below source and cause reverse
currents to flow from source to drain. Verify that any such
current remains within the envelope shown in Figure 9.
As with any power supply design, all LinkZero-LP designs
should be verified on the bench to make sure that component
specifications are not exceeded under worst-case conditions.

NOTES:
A. IDSS is the worse case off state leakage specification at 80% of BVDSS and maximum operating junction temperature.
B. This parameter is derived from characterization.
C. Output frequency specification applies to low line input voltage in the final application. The controller is designed to reduce output
frequency by approximately 20% at high line input voltages to balance low line and high line maximum output power.
D. The auto-restart on-time/off-time is increased by 20% at high line input 265 VAC.
E. LinkZero-LP shuts down if current into BYPASS pin reaches ISD at BPSHUNT voltage.
