TSM1052 Constant voltage and constant current controller for battery chargers and adapters Features ■ Secondary-side constant voltage and constant current control ■ Very low voltage operation ■ Very low quiescent consumption ■ High-accuracy internal reference ■ Low external component count ■ Wired-or open-drain output stage ■ Easy frequency compensation ■ SOT23-6 micro package SOT23-6 Applications ■ Battery chargers ■ AC DC adapters The external components needed to complete the two control loops are: ■ A resistor divider that senses the output of the power supply (adapter, battery charger) and fixes the voltage regulation set point at the specified value; ■ The TSM1052 integrates a voltage reference, two op amps (with OR-ed open-drain outputs), and a low-side current sensing circuit. A sense resistor that feeds the current sensing circuit with a voltage proportional to the dc output current; this resistor determines the current regulation set point and must be adequately rated in terms of power dissipation; ■ The voltage reference, along with one op amp, is the core of the voltage control loop; the current sensing circuit and the other op amp make up the current control loop. Frequency compensation components (RC networks) for both loops. The TSM1052, housed in one of the smallest package available, is ideal for space-shrunk applications such as adapters and chargers. Description The TSM1052 is a highly integrated solution for SMPS applications requiring a dual control loop to perform CV (constant voltage) and CC (constant current) regulation. Table 1.

Typical adapter or battery charger application using the device Vcc TSM1052 1.210 V + R1 6 Rled + 3 OUT - 200 mV Cvc1 1 + Rvc1 Vctrl Vout Cic1 2 4 5 Ictrl Vsense GND Ric1 R2 Ric2 Rsense Iout In the above application schematic, the device is used on the secondary side of a flyback adapter (or battery charger) to provide an accurate control of voltage and current. The above feedback loop is made with an optocoupler. 4.2 Voltage and current control 4.2.1 Voltage control The voltage loop is controlled via a first transconductance operational amplifier, the voltage divider R1, R2, and the optocoupler which is directly connected to the output. Its possible to choose the values of R1 and R2 resistors using Equation 1: Equation 1 a) Vout = Vref ⋅ b) R1 = R2 ⋅ (R1 + R 2 ) R2 (Vout − Vref ) Vref where Vout is the desired output voltage. As an example, with R1 = 100 kΩ and R2 = 27 kΩ, VOUT = 5.7 V 8/15 TSM1052 4.2.2 Application information Current control The current loop is controlled via the second trans-conductance operational amplifier, the sense resistor Rsense, and the optocoupler. The control equation verifies: Equation 2 a) R sense ⋅ Ilim = Vsense b) R sense = Vsense Ilim where Ilim is the desired limited current, and VSENSE is the threshold voltage for the current control loop. As an example, with Ilim = 1 A, VSENSE = 200 mV, then RSENSE = 200 mΩ. Note: The Rsense resistor should be chosen taking into account the maximum dissipation (Plim) through it during full load operation. Equation 3 Plim = Vsense ⋅ Ilim As an example, with Ilim = 1 A, and Vsense = 200 mV, Plim = 200 mW. Therefore, for most adapter and battery charger applications, a quarter-watt, or half-watt resistor is sufficient. VSENSE threshold is made internally by a voltage divider tied to the Vref voltage reference. Its middle point is tied to the positive input of the current control operational amplifier, and its foot is to be connected to lower potential point of the sense resistor as shown in Figure 15 on page 8. The resistors of this voltage divider are matched to provide the best possible accuracy. The current sinking outputs of the two transconductance operational amplifiers are common (to the output of the IC). This makes an ORing function which ensures either the voltage control or the current control, driving the optocoupler's photodiode to transmit the feedback to the primary side. The relation between the controlled current and the controlled output voltage can be described with a square characteristic as shown in the following V/I output-power diagram. (with the power supply of the device indipendent of the output voltage) 9/15 Application information TSM1052 Figure 16. Output voltage versus output current Vout Voltage regulation Current regulation (Vcc of the device independent of output voltage) 4.3 Iout Compensation The voltage control transconductance operational amplifier can be fully compensated. Both of its output and negative input are directly accessible for external compensation components. An example of a suitable compensation network is shown in Figure 15. It consists of a capacitor CVC1 = 2.2 nF and a resistor RCV1 = 470 kΩ in series. The current-control transconductance operational amplifier can be fully compensated. Both its output and negative input are directly accessible for external compensation components. An example of a suitable compensation network is shown in Figure 15. It consists of a capacitor CIC1 = 2.2 nF and a resistor RIC1 = 22 kΩ in series. In order to increase the stability of the application it is suggested to add a resistor in series with the optocoupler. An example of a suitable RLED value could be 330 Ω in series with the optocoupler. 4.4 Start up and short circuit conditions Under start-up or short-circuit conditions if the device is supplied from SMPS output and the output voltage is lower than Vcc minimum the current regulation is not guaranteed. Therefore, the current limitation can only be ensured by the primary PWM module, which should be chosen accordingly. If the primary current limitation is considered not to be precise enough for the application, then a sufficient supply for the device has to be ensured under any condition. It would then be necessary to add some circuitry to supply the chip with a separate power line. This can be achieved in numerous ways, including an additional winding on the transformer. The following schematic shows how to realize a low-cost power supply for the device (with no additional windings). 10/15 TSM1052 Application information Figure 17.
