The controller includes the current-mode PWM logic and the ZCD (zero current detect) circuit for QR operation, the start-up circuitry with soft-start feature, an oscillator for frequency foldback function, the current limit circuit with adjustable set point, the second overcurrent circuit, the burst mode management circuit, the brown-out circuit, the UVLO circuit, the auto-restart circuit and the thermal shutdown circuit. The current limit set-point is set by the ZCD pin. The burst mode operation guaranties high performance in the stand-by mode and helps in the energy saving norm accomplishment All the fault protections are built in auto-restart mode with very low repetition rate to prevent IC's over heating. 7.1 Power section and gate driver The power section is implemented with an avalanche ruggedness N-channel MOSFET, which guarantees safe operation within the specified energy rating as well as high dv/dt capability. The power section has a BVDSS of 800 V min. and a typical RDS(on) of 20 at 25 C. The integrated SenseFET structure allows a virtually loss-less current sensing. The gate driver is designed to supply a controlled gate current during both turn-on and turnoff in order to minimize common mode EMI. Under UVLO conditions an internal pull-down circuit holds the gate low in order to ensure that the Power section cannot be turned on accidentally. 7.2 High voltage startup generator The HV current generator is supplied through the DRAIN pin and it is enabled only if the input bulk capacitor voltage is higher than VDRAIN_START threshold, reported on Table 7 on page 7. When the HV current generator is ON, the IDDch current (see Table 7 on page 7) is delivered to the capacitor on the VDD pin. In case of Auto-restart mode after a fault event, the IDDch current is reduced to 0.6 mA, in order to have a slow duty cycle during the restart phase. Doc ID 15455 Rev 5 15/40 Operation description 7.3 VIPER15 Power-up description If the input voltage rises up till the device start level, VDRAIN_START, the VDD voltage begins to grow due to the IDDch current (see Table 7 on page 7) coming from the internal high voltage start-up circuit. If the VDD voltage reaches the VDDon threshold (See Table 7 on page 7) the power MOSFET starts switching and the HV current generator is turned OFF, see Figure 23 on page 17. The IC is powered by the energy stored in the capacitor on the VDD pin, CVDD, until when the self-supply circuit (typically an auxiliary winding of the transformer and a steering diode) develops a voltage high enough to sustain the operation. CVDD capacitor must be sized enough to avoid fast discharge and keep the needed voltage value higher than VDDoff threshold. In fact, a too low capacitance value could terminate the switching operation before the controller receives any energy from the auxiliary winding. The following formula can be used for the VDD capacitor calculation: Equation 1 C VDD = IDDch t SSaux VDDon - VDDoff The tSSaux is the time needed for the steady state of the auxiliary voltage. This time is estimated by applicator according to the output stage configurations (transformer, output capacitances, etc.). During normal operation, the power MOSFET is switched ON immediately after transformer demagnetization, detected by the VIPER15, through the voltage VZCD sensed on the ZCD pin. At power up the initial output voltage is zero and then the voltage VZCD is not high enough to correctly arm the internal ZCD circuit. In this case, the power MOSFET is turned ON with a fixed frequency determined by the internal oscillator. This fixed switching frequency is FSTARTER (see Table 8 on page 8). As soon as the voltage on ZCD pin is able to arm the ZCD circuit (i.e. its positive value exceeds VZCDAth), the turn-on of the power MOSFET is driven by this circuit and is no more related to the internal oscillator (except for the frequency fold-back function). The start-up phase is managed by a dedicated internal logic and is activated every time the device exits from UVLO because the VDD voltage exceeds the threshold VDDon. An internal timing (tSU, see Table 8 on page 8) defines the end of the start-up phase. During the first part of the start-up phase soft start takes place: the drain peak current is increased cycle-by-cycle from zero as far as the maximum value, IDlim, (see Figure 24 or Figure 25 on page 18). The duration of soft-start is tSS, (tSS < tSU, see Table 8 on page 8), During soft-start and until the output voltage reaches its regulated value, the feedback loop is open. To prevent an improper activation of the OLP function (see the Section 7.13 on page 28) during soft-start and until the start-up phase is over (t = tSU), the feedback voltage is clamped at VFBlin.(see Figure 24 on page 18). In this way, the feedback voltage can exceed VFBlin and ramp up as far as the overload threshold, VFBolp (see Figure 25 on page 18), which would activate the OLP function, only at the end of the start-up phase (t > tSU) if the output voltage is still below the regulated value. 16/40 Doc ID 15455 Rev 5 VIPER15 Operation description As soon as the output voltage reaches the regulated value, the regulation loop takes over and the drain current is regulated below its limit, IDlim, by the feedback voltage, which settles at a value lower than the threshold VFBlin Figure 22.

The VDD voltage drops and when it falls below the VDDoff threshold the power MOSFET is switched OFF, the energy transfers to the IC is interrupted and consequently the VDD voltages decreases, see Figure 23 on page 17. Later, if the VIN is lower than the threshold VDRAIN_START, the start-up sequence is inhibited and the power-down completed. This feature is useful to prevent converter's restart attempts and ensures monotonic output voltage decay during the system power-down. 7.5 Auto-restart description If after a converter power-down, the VIN is higher than VDRAIN_START, the power-up sequence is not inhibited and will be activated only when the VDD voltage drops down the VDD(RESTART) threshold (reported on Table 7 on page 7). This means that the HV start-up current generator restarts the VDD capacitor charging only when the VDD voltage drops below VDD(RESTART). The scenario above described is for instance a power-down because of a fault condition. After a fault condition, the charging current, IDDch, is reduced to 0.6 mA instead of 3 mA of the normal power-up converter phase. This feature together with the low VDD(RESTART) threshold (reported on Table 7 on page 7) ensures that, after a fault, the restart attempts of the IC has a very long repetition rate and the converter works safely with extremely low power throughput. The Figure 26 shows the IC behavioral after a short-circuit event. Figure 26.

At heavy load the converter operates in quasi-resonant mode: operation lies in synchronizing MOSFET's turn-on to the transformer's demagnetization by detecting the resulting negative-going edge of the voltage across any winding of the transformer. The system works close to the boundary between discontinuous (DCM) and continuous conduction (CCM) of the transformer and the switching frequency will be different for different line/load conditions. See the hyperbolic-like portion reported in Figure 27 on page 21. At medium/ light load, depending also from the converter input voltage, the device enters in Valley-skipping mode. The internal oscillator, synchronized to MOSFET's turn-on, defines the maximum operating frequency of the converter, FOSClim. The VIPER15 is available as type `L' or type `H', depending from the value of FOSClim, see Table 8 on page 8. During the normal operation the converter works with a frequency below FOSClim, so the `L' type is suitable for application where the priority is on the EMI filter minimization. The `H' type is suitable when an extended QR operation range is a plus or the priority is the transformer size reduction. As the load is reduced, and the switching frequency tends to exceeds the limit FOSClim, MOSFET's turn-on will not any more occur on the first valley but on the second one, the third one and so on, see Figure 29 on page 22. In this way a "frequency clamp" effect is achieved, piecewise linear portion in Figure 27 on page 21. When the load is extremely light or disconnected, the converter enters in burst mode operation, see the relevant Section 7.14 on page 32. Decreasing the load will then result in frequency reduction, which can go down even to few hundred hertz, thus minimizing all frequency-related losses and making it easier to comply with energy saving regulations or recommendations. Being the peak current low enough, no issue of audible noise. The above mentioned way of operation is based on the ZCD pin. This pin is the input of the integrated ZCD circuit which allows the power section turn-on at the end of the transformer demagnetization. The input signal for the ZCD is obtained as a partition of the auxiliary voltage used to supply the device, see Figure 28 on page 21. When the integrated triggering circuit senses the negative going edge of the voltage VZCD, going below the threshold VZCDTth, the power MOSFET is turned on with a delay that helps to achieve the minimum drain-source voltage during the switch on. The mentioned triggering circuit has to be previously armed by a positive going edge of the voltage VZCD, exceeding the threshold VZCDAth. See the Table 8 on page 8. After the MOSFET turn-off there is a typical noise generated by the transformer's leakage inductance resonance ringing and coupled with the ZCD pin. The blanking time, TBLANK, helps to filter this noise avoiding false triggers of the ZCD circuit. 20/40 Doc ID 15455 Rev 5 VIPER15 Operation description Figure 27.

The switching frequency increases when the load decreases, or when the input voltage mains increases, and vice versa. In principle it could reach an infinite value. To avoid that, the VIPER15 taps the maximum switching frequency of the application by its control logic. The frequency limit is realized with an internal oscillator switching at 136 kHz for VIPER15L or at 225 kHz for the VIPER15H, sees the parameter FOSClim on Table 8 on page 8. This oscillator is synchronized with power MOSFET turn-on. When the power MOSFET is off, if the first negative-going edge voltage of the ZCD pin, resulting from transformer's demagnetization, appears after at least one oscillator cycle has been completed, the MOSFET is turned ON and the oscillator re-synchronized. Otherwise, if the first negative-going edge voltage appears before completing one oscillator cycle, the signal is ignored. Due to the ringing of the drain voltage, the ZCD pin will experience another positive-going edge voltage that arms the circuit and a subsequent negative-going edge voltage. Again, if this appears before the oscillator cycle is complete, it is ignored, otherwise the MOSFET is turned ON and the oscillator re-synchronized. In this way, one or more drain ringing cycles will be skipped (Figure 29 on page 22 shows the so called "valley-skipping mode") and the switching frequency will be prevented from exceeding the limit FOSClim. Figure 29. Drain ringing cycle skipping as the load is progressively reduced VDS VDS TO N TFW TV VDS t t Tos c Tosc Pin = Pin' (limit condition) t Tos c Pin = Pin'' < Pin' Pin = Pin''' < Pin'' When the system operates in valley skipping-mode, uneven switching cycles may be observed under some line/load conditions, due to the fact that the OFF-time of the power MOSFET is allowed to change with discrete steps of one ringing cycle, while the OFF-time needed for cycle-by-cycle energy balance could fall in between. Thus one or more longer switching cycles will be compensated by one or more shorter cycles and vice versa. This mechanism is natural and there is no appreciable effect on the converter's performances and on its output voltage. The operation described so far does not consider the blanking time TBLANK after power MOSFET's turn OFF. Actually TBLANK does not come into play as long as the following condition is met: Equation 2 D 1- TBLANK = 1 - TBLANK * FOSC lim TOSC lim where D is the MOSFET duty cycle. If this condition is not met, the time during which MOSFET's turn-ON is inhibited is extended beyond TOSClim by a fraction of TBLANK. As a consequence, the maximum switching frequency will be a little lower than the internal limit set by the oscillator and valley-skipping mode will take place slightly earlier than expected. 22/40 Doc ID 15455 Rev 5 VIPER15 7.8 Operation description Double blanking time The blanking time, TBLANK, can have two different values: the lower one is 2,5 s (typical value) and the higher one is 6,3 s (typical value). The value is linked to the voltage VZCD, sampled during the time TSTROBE defined as for the overvoltage protection (see the relevant Section 7.11 on page 26). The time TBLANK has the lower value if is detected VZCD < 1V or it has the higher value if is detected VZCD > 1V, refer to Table 8 on page 8 and Figure 30 on page 23. The higher value of the blanking time is normally activated during the start-up phase or in case of output short-circuit; when the output voltage of the converter is quite lower than the regulated value. In this condition can happens that during the demagnetization of the transformer, the VZCD is very close to the arming and triggering thresholds (VZCDAth and VZCDTth) and the ZCD circuit can be erroneously trigged, leading the system to work at higher frequency and in continuous mode. This false trigger is inhibited by the selection of the higher value of TBLANK when VZCD is lower than 1 V. During the normal operation, in steady state condition, the voltage VZCD during the demagnetization is higher than 1V and the selected TBLANK value is the lower one. The Figure 30 shows the typical waveforms during the power up and the linked TBLANK selection. Figure 30.

This is what normally happens during converter's power-up or under overload/short-circuit conditions. During the converter's startup phase, the voltage on ZCD pin is not high enough to arm the triggering circuit. Thus, the converter operates at a fixed frequency, FSTARTER (see Table 8 on page 8). As the voltage developed across the auxiliary winding becomes high enough to arm the ZCD circuit, MOSFET's turn-ON is locked to transformer demagnetization, hence setting up quasi-resonant operation. As protection, in case the ZCD voltage is permanently above the threshold VZCDAth, the switching frequency is reduced to the minimum value, FOSCmin, reported on Table 8 on page 8. 7.10 Current limit set point and feed-forward option The VIPER15 is a current mode converter and the drain current is limited cycle by cycle according to the FB pin voltage value that is related with the feedback loop response and the load. When the drain current, sensed by the integrated Sense-FET, reaches the current limitation, after the internal propagation delay, the MOSFET is switched OFF. The current limitation cannot exceed a certain value, IDlim, that can be adjusted acting on the current sunk from the ZCD pin during MOSFET's ON-time. Usually a resistor, RLIM, connected from ZCD pin to ground is used to fix this sunk current and then the peak drain current set-point: the lower the resistor is, the lower IDlim will be. For a QR fly-back converter the power capability strongly depends on the input voltage. In wide-range applications at maximum line the power capability can be more than twice the value at minimum line, as shown by the upper curve in the diagram of Figure 31 on page 25. To reduce this dependence, the current limit IDlim has to be reduced according to the increment of the input voltage, implementing the so called line feed-forward. It's realized with a resistor, RFF, connected between the ZCD pin and the auxiliary winding, see the Figure 32 on page 26. Since the voltage across the auxiliary winding during MOSFET's on-time is proportional to the input voltage through the auxiliary-to-primary turns ratio NAUX /NP, a current proportional to the input voltage is sunk from the ZCD pin, thus lowering the overcurrent set point. 24/40 Doc ID 15455 Rev 5 VIPER15 Operation description Figure 31.

The following approximated formula calculates the value of the resistor RFF Equation 3 RFF = Vin _ max - Vin _ min n aux (IZCD1 - IZCD2 ) Where: Vin_Max and Vin_min are the maximum and minimum converter rectified input voltage naux is the primary to auxiliary winding turn ratio IZCD1, and IZCD2 are the currents needed to sink from the ZCD pin, in order to obtain the selected IDlim set points, respectively at Vin_max and Vin_min, the graph IDlim vs IZCD current is reported on Figure 16 on page 12). The RLIM Value can be calculated from the following formula knowing the RFF value: Equation 4 RLIM VZCD2 VZCD1 = Max , Vin _ max Vin _ min + VZCD1 + VZCD2 n aux n aux IZCD2 - IZCD1 - RFF RFF Where: VZCD1 and VZCD2 are the ZCD pin voltages when the sunk current is IZCD1 and IZCD2 respectively (see Figure 15 on page 12).

This is the time when the voltage from the auxiliary winding tracks the output voltage, through the turn ratio NAUX / NSEC. The ZCD pin has to be connected to the auxiliary winding through the diode DOVP and the resistors ROVP and RLIM as shows the Figure 32 on page 26. When, during the OFF time, the voltage VZCD exceeds, four consecutive times, the reference voltage VOVP (reported on Table 8 on page 8) the overvoltage protection will stop the power MOSFET and the converter enters the auto-restart mode. In order to bypass the noise after the turn off of the power MOSFET, the voltage VZCD is sampled inside a short-window after the time TSTROBE, see the Table 8 on page 8 and Figure 33 on page 27. The sampled signal, if higher than VOVP, trigger the internal OVP digital signal and increments the internal counter. The same counter is reset every time the signal OVP is not triggered in one oscillator cycle.

The thresholds VFBbm and VFBlin (reported on Table 8 on page 8) are respectively the low and the high limit of the PWM operations, where the drain current is sensed trough the integrated resistor RSENSE and applied to the comparator PWM. The PWM logic turns OFF the power MOSFET as soon as the sensed voltage is equal to the voltage applied to the FB pin and trough the integrated resistors network, see the Figure 2 on page 4 and Figure 20 on page 14. As shows the IC block diagram reported in Figure 2 on page 4, in parallel with the PWM comparator there is the OCP comparator that limits the drain current as maximum to the value IDlim, reported on Table 8 on page 8. In case of higher load the voltage VFB increases, when it reaches the threshold VFBlin the drain current is limited to IDlim and the internal current starts the charge of the capacitor CFB. As soon as the voltage VFB reaches the threshold VFBolp, see Figure 36 on page 31, the protection turns off the IC. After, the auto-restart mode is activated using the low value of the current IDDch, see Table 7 on page 7. 28/40 Doc ID 15455 Rev 5 VIPER15 Operation description The time, from the high load detection, VFB = VFBlin, to the overload turn-off, VFB = VFBolp, depends from the value of the capacitor CFB and from the internal charge current, IFB. The OLP delay time can be calculating by the formula: Equation 8 V FBolp - V FBlin T OLP - delay = C FB x ---------------------------------------3A The current, IFB, is 3 A as minimum value. The components connected to the FB pin are also a part of the compensation loop, so they have to be selected taking into account the proper delay and loop stability consideration. The Figure 34 on page 30 and Figure 35 on page 30 show two different feedback networks. In the Figure 33 on page 27, the capacitor, CFB, connected to FB pin is used as part of the circuit to compensate the feedback loop but also as element to delay the OLP shut down owing to the time needed to charge the capacitor (see the Equation 8). After the start-up time, tSU, during which the feedback voltage is fixed at VFBlin, the output capacitor could not be at its nominal value and the controller interpreter this situation as an overload condition. In this case, the OLP delay helps to avoid an incorrect device shut down during the start-up. See the relevant Section 7.3 on page 16. Owing to the above considerations, the OLP delay time must be long enough to by-pass the initial output voltage transient and check the overload condition only when the output voltage is in steady state. The output transient time depends from the value of the output capacitor and from the load. When the value of the CFB capacitor calculated for the loop stability is too low and cannot ensure enough OLP delay, an alternative compensation network can be used and it is showed in Figure 35 on page 30. Using this alternative compensation network, two poles (fPFB, fPFB1) and one zero (fZFB) are introduced by the capacitors CFB and CFB1 and the resistor RFB1. The capacitor CFB introduces a pole (fPFB) at higher frequency than fZB and fPFB1. This pole is usually used to compensate the high frequency zero due to the ESR (Equivalent Series Resistor) of the output capacitance of the fly-back converter. The mathematical expressions of these poles and zero frequency, considering the scheme in Figure 35 on page 30 are reported by the equations below: Equation 9 fZFB = 1 2 CFB1 RFB1 Equation 10 fPFB = RFB(DYN) + RFB1 ( 2 CFB RFB(DYN) RFB1 Doc ID 15455 Rev 5 ) 29/40 Operation description VIPER15 Equation 11 fPFB1 = 1 2 CFB1 RFB1 + RFB(DYN) ( ) The RFB(DYN) is the dynamic resistance seen by the FB pin and reported on Table 8 on page 8. The CFB1 capacitor fixes the OLP delay and usually CFB1 results much higher than CFB. The Equation 8 on page 29 can be still used to calculate the OLP delay time but CFB1 has to be considered instead of CFB. Using the alternative compensation network, the designer can satisfy, in all case, the loop stability and the enough OLP delay time alike. Figure 34.

If it falls down the burst mode threshold, VFBbm, the power MOSFET is not more allowed to be switched on. After the MOSFET stops, as a result of the feedback reaction to the energy delivery stop, the feedback pin voltage increases and exceeding the level, VFBbm + VFBbmhys, the power MOSFET starts switching again. The burst mode thresholds are reported on Table 8 and Figure 37 shows this behavior. Systems alternates period of time where power MOSFET is switching to period of time where power MOSFET is not switching; this device working mode is the burst mode. The power delivered to output during switching periods exceeds the load power demands; the excess of power is balanced from not switching period where no power is processed. The advantage of burst mode operation is an average switching frequency much lower then the normal operation working frequency, up to some hundred of hertz, minimizing all frequency related losses. During the burst-mode the drain current peak is clamped to the level, ID_BM, reported on Table 8. Figure 37. Burst mode timing diagram, light load management VCOMP VFBbm +VFBbmhys VFBbm time IDD IDD1 IDD0 time IDRAIN ID_BM time Burst Mode 7.15 Brown-out protection Brown-out protection is a not-latched shutdown function activated when a condition of mains under voltage is detected. The Brown-out comparator is internally referenced to VBRth threshold, see Table 8 on page 8, and disables the PWM if the voltage applied at the BR pin is below this internal reference. Under this condition the power MOSFET is turned off. Until the Brown out condition is present, the VDD voltage continuously oscillates between the VDDon and the UVLO thresholds, as shown in the timing diagram of Figure 38 on page 33. A voltage hysteresis is present to improve the noise immunity. The switching operation is restarted as the voltage on the pin is above the reference plus the before said voltage hysteresis. See Figure 5 on page 10. The Brown-out comparator is provided also with a current hysteresis, IBRhyst. The designer has to set the rectified input voltage above which the power MOSFET starts switching after brown out event, VINon, and the rectified input voltage below which the power MOSFET is switched off, VINoff. Thanks to the IBRhyst, see Table 8 on page 8, these two thresholds can be set separately. 32/40 Doc ID 15455 Rev 5 VIPER15 Operation description Figure 38.

The BR pin is a high impedance input connected to high value resistors, thus it is prone to pick up noise, which might alter the OFF threshold when the converter operates or gives origin to undesired switch-off of the device during ESD tests. It is possible to bypass the pin to ground with a small film capacitor (e.g. 1-10 nF) to prevent any malfunctioning of this kind. If the brown-out function is not used the BR pin has to be connected to GND, ensuring that the voltage is lower than the minimum of VDIS threshold (50 mV, see Table 8). In order to enable the brown-out function the BR pin voltage has to be higher than the maximum of VDIS threshold (150 mV, see Table 8). Doc ID 15455 Rev 5 33/40 Operation description 7.16 VIPER15 2nd level overcurrent protection and hiccup mode The VIPER15 is protected against short-circuit of the secondary rectifier, short-circuit on the secondary winding or a hard-saturation of fly-back transformer. Such as anomalous condition is invoked when the drain current exceed the threshold IDMAX, see Table 8 on page 8. To distinguish a real malfunction from a disturbance (e.g. induced during ESD tests) a "warning state" is entered after the first signal trip. If in the subsequent switching cycle the signal is not tripped, a temporary disturbance is assumed and the protection logic will be reset in its idle state; otherwise if the IDMAX threshold is exceeded for two consecutive switching cycles a real malfunction is assumed and the power MOSFET is turned OFF. The shutdown condition is latched as long as the device is supplied. While it is disabled, no energy is transferred from the auxiliary winding; hence the voltage on the VDD capacitor decays till the VDD under voltage threshold (VDDoff), which clears the latch. The start up HV current generator is still off, until VDD voltage goes below its restart voltage, VDD(RESTART). After this condition the VDD capacitor is charged again by 600 A current, and the converter switching restarts if the VDDon occurs. If the fault condition is not removed the device enters in auto-restart mode. This behavioral results in a low-frequency intermittent operation (Hiccup-mode operation), with very low stress on the power circuit. See the timing diagram of Figure 39. Figure 39.
