The switching frequency is reduced in small steps with decreasing load towards a minimum of 20 kHz in standby mode. This function is performed by a digital circuit to avoid any jitter also with periodically pulsed loads. To provide extremely low power consumption at light loads, this device can be switched into Standby Burst Mode. This is also possible without standby control signal (for adapter application). Additionally, the start up current is very low. To avoid switching stresses of the power devices, the power transistor is always switched on at minimum voltage. The device has several protection functions: VCC overand undervoltage, mains undervoltage and current limiting. Regulation can be done by using the internal error amplifier or an opto coupler feedback. The output driver is ideally suited for driving a power MOSFET. The ICE1QS01 is suited for TV-sets, DVD- sets, SAT- receivers and other consumer applications in the power range from 0 to app. 300 W.

Start up current is provided via this diode if VPCS is higher than VCC + VBE (VBE = Base-Emitter-Voltage). During start up the internal reference of the IC is shut off and current consumption is about 60 A. There is only the start up circuitry working which determines the VCCon threshold. Gate driver OUT is switched to low. An active shut down circuitry ensures that OUT is held below the MOS gate threshold when the IC is in start up mode. Block Diagram: Start Up VCC PCS UVLO OUT ICE1QS01 Version 1.4 6 27 Apr 2004 ICE1QS01 Soft start The internal reference of the IC is switched on when VCC exceeds the VCCon threshold. The IC begins to work with soft start mode. Soft start is realized with an internal soft start resistor, an internal current sink, a current source and the external feedback capacitor connected at pin SRC. The internal resistor is connected between the internal voltage reference and pin SRC. The current sink is connected between pin SRC and GND. The value of the current is set with a timer. Immediately after the IC is switched on the capacitor CSRC is charged with a current source up to 2.5V. This current source is switched off 12 sec after beginning of soft start. The current value of the current sink is set with a timer. Every three msec the current of the current sink is reduced and so VSRC can increase stepwise. The soft start is finished 24 msec after the IC is switched on. At the end of the soft start the current sink is switched off.

The voltage at Pin PCS is forced to 1.5V when the power transistor is switched off and during its switch on time C2 is charged by R2 from the rectified mains.

RZI (zero crossing input and primary regulation) Zero current counter Every time when the falling voltage ramp of VRZI crosses the 50 mV threshold a pulse is sent to the zero-current-counter and increases the counter by one. If zero-current-counter and up-down-counter are equal the gate drive OUT is switched to high. Up-down counter is influenced via SRC voltage as described below. If VRZI is greater than 50 mV gate drive OUT is always switched low.

This timer ensures that the gate drive cannot be switched on until this ringing suppression time is passed. Duration of ringing suppression time depends on the VRZI voltage. Suppression time is 3 sec if VRZI > 1V and it is 30 sec if VRZI < 1V.

The current sink is connected between pin SRC and ground. If VRZI exceeds the 5V threshold the current sink is switched on. It is switched off when VRZI falls below 5V. The current sink discharges the CSRC capacitor. CSRC is charged via the internal 20k resistor. If VRZI exceeds the 4.4V threshold a flip-flop is set and the resistor is switched off when VRZI falls below 50 mV. The resistor is switched on again with the falling slope of gate drive OUT.

The feedback voltage VSRC has two main functions. Function I (MOS FET on time): VSRC provides the switch off reference voltage. If VPCS (which contains the primary current information) exceeds the VSRC voltage the external MOS transistor is switched off. Function II (MOS FET off time for frequency reduction): At low load the frequency is reduced by ignoring zero crossing signals after the transformer demagnetization. VSRC determines the action of the 4-bit up-down-counter which contains the number of zero crossings to be ignored. The content of the up-down-counter is compared with the number of zero-current crossings of VRZI. If the number of zero-current crossings in each period after the transformer demagnetization is equal to the up-down-counter content the MOS is switched on. At low load conditions when VSRC is below 3.5V the counter is increased by one every 50 msec. The result is that the MOS transistor off-time increases and duty cycle decreases. At high load conditions when VSRC is higher than 4.4V the counter content is reduced by one every 50msec. So MOS transistor off-time will be reduced. With this off-time regulation switching jitter can be eliminated. The up-down-counter is immediately set to 0001 if a load jump occurs and VSRC exceeds 4.8 V. This ensures that full power can be provided instantaneously. The following table shows the SRC voltage range and the corresponding up-down counter action. SRC voltage range up-down-counter action 1: VSRC< 3.5V count forward 2: 3.54.4 count backward 4: VSRC> 4.8 set up-down-counter to1 The information provided by VSRC is stored in two independent flip flops. An internal timer creates a trigger pulse with a period of 50 msec. Every time the pulse occures the up-down counter checks the status flip flops and acts depending on the flip flop information. After this pulse the flip flops are reset. So change of voltage range is noticed by the logic only once during the 50 ms period. In the diagram below the behaviour of the up-down counter is depicted in more detail.

If VSRC falls below 2V after activating the comparator the gate drive OUT is switched to low and the VCCoff threshold is changed to 14.5 V. VCC decreases because gate drive is held low. If VCC reaches the VCCoff threshold the IC is going into start-up mode. At VCCon threshold the IC is switched on again starting with soft start modus. VCCoff threshold is set to the normal 9V.

Restart pulse is inhibited if VRZI is higher than 50 mV. So the MOS transistor cannot be switched on until the transformer is discharged. VCC overvoltage protection If VCC exceeds the VCCD threshold a latch is set and the gate is disabled. Reset of latch occurs when VCC is falling below VCCon- VCCBHY. Overvoltage fault comparator (OFC) With an external sense resistor connected to pin OFC primary current can be sensed directly. If the sensed current exceeds the internal VOFC threshold a latch is set and gate is disabled. Reset of latch occurs when VCC is falling below VCCon- VCCBHY. Notice: If this comparator is not used pin OFC has to be connected to ground. Mains undervoltage Power supplies must be shut down when mains voltage is below a certain limit to avoid too long ontime of MOS-FET switch, which would lead to a switching frequency in audible spheres. Mains undervoltage is sensed during the off-time of the MOS-FET switch. If the current flowing into pin PCS is smaller than 100 uA, then the output is latched and cannot be switched to high state.

With higher frequency also the maximal possible output power becomes higher. With higher power the danger in case of failure increases. To avoid this, the foldback point correction circuit senses main voltage to reduce the on-time of the switch. Mains voltage is sensed at the supply coil of VCC voltage via a resistor connected to pin RZI. During on-time of the MOS-FET switch current is pulled out from pin RZI. When this current is higher than 500 A, one fifth of the current higher than this threshold is driven into pin PCS to increase the voltage slope charging the capacitor connected to this pin.
