DESCRIPTION
TSM1012 is a highly integrated solution for SMPS
applications requiring CV (constant voltage) and
CC (constant current) mode.
TSM1012 integrates one voltage reference and
two operational amplifiers (with ORed outputs -
comm on co lle ctors) .
The voltage reference combined with one
operational amplifier makes it an ideal voltage
controller. The other operational, combined with
few external resistors and the voltage reference,
can be used as a current limiter.

1. Voltage and Current Control
1.1. Voltage Control
The vol tage loop is controlled via a first tr anscon-
ductanc e opera tional amplifier , the resis tor bridg e
R1, R2, and the optocoupler which is directly con-
nected to the output.
The relation between the values of R1 and R2
should be cho sen as written in Equ ati on 1.
R1 = R2 x Vref / (Vout - Vref) Eq1
Where Vout is the desired output voltage.
To avoid the discharge of the load, the resistor
bridge R1, R2 should be highly resistive. For this
type of application, a total value of 100K (or
more) would be appropriate for the resistors R1
and R2.
As an example, with R2 = 100K, Vout = 4.10V,
Vref = 1.210V, then R1 = 41.9K.
Note that if the low drop diode shoul d be inserted
between the load and the voltage regulation resis-
tor bridge to avoid current flowing from the load
through the resistor bridge, this drop should be
taken into account in the above calculations by re-
placing Vout by (Vout + Vdrop).
1.2. Current Control
The current loop is controlled via the second
trans-conductance operational amplifier, the
sense resistor Rsense, and the optocoupler.
Vsense threshold is achieved externally by a re-
sistor br idge tie d to the Vref vol tage ref erence. Its
middle poi nt is tied to the posi tiv e inp ut of the cur-
rent c ont ro l ope rational a mpl ifi er , and i ts fo ot is t o
be connected to lower potential point of the sense
resistor as shown o n the follow ing figure. The re-
sistors of this bridge are matched to provide the
best prec is io n poss ib le
The control equation verifies:
Rsense x Ilim = Vsense eq2
Vsen se = R5*Vref/(R4+R5)
Ilim = R5*Vref/(R4+R5)*Rsense eq2'
where Ilim is the desired limited current, and
Vsense is the threshold voltage for the current
control loop.
Note that the Rsense resistor should be chosen
taking into account the maximum dissipation
(Plim) through it during full load operation.
Plim = Vsense x Ilim. eq3
Therefore, for most adapter and battery charger
applications, a quarter-watt, or half-watt resistor to
make the current sensing function is sufficient.
The current sinking outputs of the two trans-con-
nuctance operational amplifiers are common (to
the outpu t of the IC). This mak es an ORing func-
tion which ensures that whenever the current or
the vo ltage reac hes too high va lues, the opt ocou-
pler is activated.
The relation between the controlled current and
the controlled output voltage can be described
with a square characteristic as shown in the fol-
lowing V/I output-power graph.

2. Compensation
The vo ltage-control trans-condu ctance operati on-
al 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 Fig.2. It consists of a capacitor
Cvc1=2.2nF and a resistor Rcv1=22K in series.

The current-control trans-conductance operation-
al 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 Fig.2. It consists of a capacitor
Cic1=2.2nF and a resistor Ric1=22K in series.
3. Start Up and Short Circuit Conditions
Under start-up or short-circuit conditions the
TSM1012 is not provided with a high enough sup-
ply voltage. This is due to the fact that the chip has
its power supply line in common with the power
supply line of the system.
Therefore, the current limitation can only be en-
sured by the prima ry PWM module, whic h should
be chosen accordingly.
If the primary current limitation is considered not to
be precise enough for the application, then a suffi-
cient supply for the TSM1012 has to be ensured
under any condition. It would then be necessary to
add some ci rcuitr y to suppl y the chi p with a sepa-
rate power line. This can be achieved in numerous
ways, including an additional winding on the trans-
former.
4. Voltage clamp
The following schematic shows how to realize a
low-cost power supply for the TSM1012 (with no
additional windings).Please pay attention to the
fact that in the particular case presented here, this
low-cost power supply can reach voltages as high
as twice the voltage of the regulated line. Since
the Absolute Maximum Rating of the TSM1012
supply voltage is 28V. In the aim to protect he
TSM1012 against such how voltage values a in-
ternal zener clamp is integrated.
