To provide better temperature coefficient and precise UVLO threshold voltage, the reference voltage of hysteresis voltage (10V / 14V) is from band-gap block directly. By this way, R7731A can operate more reliable in different environments. MOSFET COSS, secondary rectifier reverse recovery current and gate driver sourcing current comprise initial current spike. The spike will seriously disturb current mode operation especially at light load and high line. R7731A provides built-in 420ns LEB to guarantee proper operation in diverse design. Noise Immunity The maximum start-up current (30A) is only for leakage current of IC at UVLO(on)-0.1V. The external al-capacitor on VDD may have 5 to 6A extra leakage current. So designed start-up current of the system should exceed 36A or more and IC can start up normally. In addition, designed start-up current of system should be less than 380A, and IC can work normally at hiccup mode. Jittering Oscillator For better EMI performance, R7731A will operate the system with 6% frequency deviation around setting frequency. To guarantee precise frequency, it is trimmed to 5% tolerance. It also generates slope compensation saw-tooth, 75% maximum duty cycle pulse and overload protection slope. By adjusting resistor of RT pin according to the following formula : 6500 fOSC (kHz) = R T (k ) It can typically operate between 50kHz to 130kHz. Note that RT pin can't be short or open otherwise oscillator will not operate. Current mode controller is very sensitive to noise. R7731A takes the advantages of Richtek long term experience in designing high noise immunity current mode circuit and layout. Also, we amplify current sense signal to compare with feedback signal instead of dividing feedback signal. All the effort is to provide clean and reliable current mode operation. Soft-Start During initial power on, especially at high line, current spike is kind of unlimited by current limit. Therefore, besides cycle-by-cycle current limiting, R7731A still provides soft-start function. It effectively suppresses the start-up current spike. As shown in the Figure 1 and Figure 2, the start-up VCS is about 0.3V lower than competitor. The typical soft-start duration is 4ms (RT = 100k). Again, this will provide more reliable operation and possibility to use smaller current rating power MOSFET. V CS V OUT Built-in Slope Compensation To reduce component counts, slope compensation is implemented by internal built-in saw-tooth. Since it's builtin, it's compromised between loop gain and sub-harmonic reduction. In general design, it can cancel sub-harmonic to 90Vac. VOUT (2V/Div) VCS (500mV/Div) Figure 1. Competitor R7731A-10 August 2011 www.richtek.com 9 R7731A V CS During light load, switching loss will dominate the power efficiency calculation. This mode is to cut switching loss. As shown in Figure 3, when the output load gets light, feedback signal drops and touches VBURL (Typical value is 1.75V). Clock signal will be blanked and system ceases to switching. After VOUT drops and feedback signal goes back to VBURH (1.8V, typically), switching will be resumed. Burst mode so far is widely used in low power application because it's simple, reliable and will not have any patent infringement issue. VOUT (2V/Div) VCS (500mV/Div) Figure 2. R7731A Gate Driver A totem pole gate driver is fine tuned to meet both EMI and efficiency requirement in low power application. An internal pull low circuit is activated after pretty low VDD to prevent external MOSFET from accidentally turning on during UVLO. Burst Triple Mode To fulfill green mode requirement, there are 3 operation modes in R7731A. Please also refer to Figure 3 for details. PWM Mode For most of load condition, the circuit will run at traditional PWM current mode. Normal Operation Burst Mode V OUT Light Load VDD Holdup Mode When the VDD drops down to VDD turn off threshold voltage, the system will be shut down. During shut down period, controller does nothing to any load change and might cause VOUT down. To avoid this, when VDD drops to a setting threshold, 11V, the hysteresis comparator will bypass PWM and burst mode loop and force switching at a very low level to supply energy to VDD pin. The designed value is 11.25V with 0.5V hysteresis band. Furthermore, VDD holdup mode is only designed to prevent VDD from touching turn off threshold voltage under light load or load transient moment. Relative to burst mode, switching loss will increase on the system at VDD holdup mode, so it is highly recommended that the system should avoid operating at this mode during light load or no load condition, normally. No Load (VDD Holdup Mode) Load VDD VDD_High VDD_Low VCOMP VBURH VBURL VGATE Figure 3. Burst Triple Mode www.richtek.com 10 R7731A-10 August 2011 R7731A Protection Negative Voltage Spike on Each Pin R7731A provides fruitful protection functions that intend to protect system from being damaged. All the protection functions can be listed as below : Negative voltage (< -0.3V) on each pin will cause substrate injection. It leads to controller damage or circuit false trigger. Generally, it happens at CS pin due to negative spike because of improper layout or inductive current sense resistor. Therefore, it is highly recommended to add a R-C filter to avoid CS pin damage, as shown in Figure 4. Proper layout and careful circuit design should be done to guarantee yield rate in mass production. Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit This is a basic but very useful function and it can be implemented easily in current mode controller. Over Load Protection Long time cycle-by-cycle current limit will lead to system thermal stress. To further protect system, system will be shut down after about 4096 clock cycles. it's about 60ms delay in 67kHz operation. After shutdown, system will resume and behave as hiccup. By proper start-up resistor design, thermal will be averaged to an acceptable level over the ON/OFF cycle of IC. This will last until fault is removed. #It's highly recommended to add a resistor in parallel with the opto-coupler. To provide sufficient bias current to make TL-431 regulate properly, 1.2k resistor is suggested. AC Mains (90V to 265V) VDD R7731A GATE CS R-C Filter Brownout Protection During heavy load, this will trigger 60ms protection and shut down the system. If it's in light load condition, system will be shut down after VDD is running low and triggers UVLO. Figure 4. R-C Filter on CS Pin OVP Output voltage can be roughly sensed by VDD pin.If the sensed voltage reaches 27V threshold, system will be shut down after 20s deglitch delay. Feedback Open and Opto-Coupler Short This will trigger OVP or 60ms delay protection. It depends on which one occurs first. OTP Internal OTP function will protect the controller itself from suffering thermal stress and permanent damage. It stops the system from switching until the temperature is under threshold level. Meanwhile, if VDD reaches VDD turn off threshold voltage, system will hiccup till over temperature condition is gone. R7731A-10 August 2011 www.richtek.com 11 R7731A Layout Consideration It is good for reducing noise, output ripple and EMI issue to separate ground traces of bulk capacitor (a), MOSFET (b), auxiliary winding (c) and IC control circuit (d). Finally, connect them together on bulk capacitor ground (a). The areas of these ground traces should be kept large. A proper PCB layout can abate unknown noise interference and EMI issue in the switching power supply. Please refer to the guidelines when you want to design PCB layout for switching power supply: Placing bypass capacitor for abating noise on IC is highly recommended. The bypass capacitor should be placed as close to controller as possible. The current path (1) from bulk capacitor, transformer, MOSFET, Rcs return to bulk capacitor is a huge high frequency current loop. It must be as short as possible to decrease noise coupling and kept a space to other low voltage traces, such as IC control circuit paths, especially. Besides, the path (2) from RCD snubber circuit to MOSFET is also a high switching loop, too. So keep it as small as possible. AC Mains (90V to 265V) CBULK To minimize reflected trace inductance and EMI minimize the area of the loop connecting the secondary winding, the output diode, and the output filter capacitor. In addition, provide sufficient copper area at the anode and cathode terminal of the diode for heatsinking. Provide a larger area at the quiet cathode terminal. A large anode area can increase high-frequency radiated EMI.
