Primary Controller 1.05 InnoSwitch4-CZ is a variable frequency controller allowing CCM/DCM operation for enhanced efficiency and extended output power 1.00 capability. PI-9094a-120320 LIM PRIMARY BYPASS Pin Regulator 0.95 The PRIMARY BYPASS pin has an internal regulator that charges the

PRIMARY BYPASS pin capacitor to VBPP by drawing current from the 0.90 DRAIN pin whenever the power switch is off. The PRIMARY BYPASS pin is the internal supply voltage node. When the power switch is on, 0.85 the device operates from the energy stored in the PRIMARY BYPASS Normalized I Normalized pin capacitor. 0.80 In addition, a shunt regulator clamps the PRIMARY BYPASS pin voltage to VSHUNT when current is provided to the PRIMARY BYPASS pin through an external resistor.

Steady-State Switching Frequency (kHz) Primary Bypass ILIM Programming Figure 6. Normalized Primary Current vs. Frequency. InnoSwitch4-CZ ICs allows the user to adjust current limit (ILIM) settings through the selection of the PRIMARY BYPASS pin capacitor Current Limit Operation value. A ceramic capacitor can be used. The primary-side controller has a current limit threshold ramp that is There are 2 selectable capacitor sizes – 0.47 mF and 4.7 mF for setting inversely proportional to the time from the end of the previous standard and increased ILIM settings respectively. primary switching cycle (i.e. from the time the primary switch turns off at the end of a switching cycle).

Once the PRIMARY BYPASS BPP BP(H) This algorithm enables the most efficient use of the primary switch pin voltage falls below this threshold, it must rise to VSHUNT to re-enable turn-on of the power switch. with the benefit that this algorithm responds to digital feedback information immediately when a feedback switching cycle request is Primary BYPASS Pin Overvoltage Function received. The PRIMARY BYPASS pin has an optional latching OV protection feature. A Zener in parallel with the resistor in series with the At full load, switching cycles have a maximum current approaching PRIMARY BYPASS pin capacitor is typically used to detect an 100% ILIM. This gradually reduces to 30% of the full current limit as overvoltage on the primary bias winding and activate the protection load decreases. Once 30% current limit is reached, there is no mechanism. In the event that the current into the PRIMARY BYPASS further reduction in current limit (since this is low enough to avoid pin exceeds I , the device will latch-off or disable the power switch audible noise). The time between switching cycles will continue to SD increase as load reduces. switching for a time tAR(OFF), after which time the controller will restart and attempt to return to regulation.

The second is included to ensure that if communication is lost, the primary tries to restart. Although this should never be the case in normal operation, it can be useful when system ESD events (for example) causes a loss of communication due to noise disturbing the secondary controller.

Again, switching will only resume once the UNDER/ requests from the secondary during normal operation (when the OVER INPUT VOLTAGE pin current has returned to within its normal secondary has control), the handshake protocol is initiated to ensure operating range. that the secondary is ready to assume control once the primary begins to switch again.

The ceramic capacitor type designations, such as X7R, X5R from different manufacturers or different product families do not have the same voltage coefficients. It is recommended that capacitor datasheets be reviewed to ensure that the selected capacitor will not have more than 20% drop in capacitance at 4.5 V. Capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics should be used for best results. S When the output voltage of the power supply is 5 V or higher, the supply current for the secondary-side controller is provided by the OUTPUT VOLTAGE (VOUT) pin of the IC as the voltage at this pin is higher than the SECONDARY BYPASS pin voltage.

If the output voltage of the power supply is below 5 V and the load at the output of the power supply is very light, the operating frequency can drop significantly and the current supplied to the secondary-side controller from the FORWARD pin may not be sufficient to maintain the SECONDARY BYPASS pin voltage at 4.5 V. For such applications, it is recommended that an additional active preload be used as shown in Figure 9.

Output Capacitor Low ESR aluminum electrolytic capacitors are suitable for use with most high frequency flyback switching power supplies though the use of aluminum-polymer solid capacitors have gained considerable S popularity due to their compact size, stable temperature characteristics, extremely low ESR and high RMS ripple current rating. These capacitors enable the design of ultra-compact chargers and adapters. Typically, 200 mF to 300 mF of aluminum-polymer capacitance per ampere of output current is adequate.

The SR FET driver uses the SECONDARY BYPASS pin for its supply rail, and this voltage is typically 4.5 V.

Higher values may be required due to (at 180 kHz) is recommended to limit the peak flux density at start-up thermal constraints. For universal input designs minimum 2% leakage and under output short-circuit conditions. Under these conditions the inductance is required to achieve ZVS during CCM operation. However output voltage is low and little reset of the transformer occurs during for DCM only designs it is recommended to minimize leakage the switch off-time. This allows the transformer flux density to inductance. Designs with more than 3 layers are possible but the staircase beyond the normal operating level. A value of 3800 gauss increased leakage inductance and the physical fit of the windings at the peak current limit of the selected device together with the should be considered. A split primary construction may be helpful for built-in protection features of InnoSwitch4-CZ IC provide sufficient DCM only designs.

Transformer Primary Inductance, (LP) Design Considerations When Using PowiGaN Once the lowest operating input voltage, switching frequency at full Devices load, and required VOR are determined, the primary inductance can be calculated. The PIXls design spreadsheet can be For a flyback converter configuration, typical voltage waveform at the used to assist in designing the transformer. DRAIN pin of the IC is shown in Figure 20.

Quick Design Checklist VOR is the reflected output voltage across the primary winding when

the secondary is conducting. VBUS is the DC voltage connected to one As with any power supply, the operation of all InnoSwitch4-CZ end of the transformer primary winding. designs should be verified on the bench to make sure that component limits are not exceeded under worst-case conditions. In addition to VBUS+VOR, the drain also sees a large voltage spike at turn off that is caused by the energy stored in the leakage inductance As a minimum, the following tests are strongly recommended: of the primary winding. To keep the drain voltage from exceeding the 1. Maximum Drain Voltage – Verify that V of InnoSwitch4-CZ and DS rated maximum continuous drain voltage, a clamp circuit is needed SR FET do not exceed 90% of breakdown voltages at the highest across the primary winding. The forward recovery of the clamp diode input voltage and peak (overload) output power in normal will add a spike at the instant of turn-OFF of the primary switch. VCLM operation and during start-up. in Figure 20 is the combined clamp voltage including the spike. The 2. Maximum Drain Current – At maximum ambient temperature, peak drain voltage of the primary switch is the total of V , V and V . maximum input voltage and peak output (overload) power. BUS OR CLM

Review drain current waveforms for any signs of transformer VOR and the clamp voltage VCLM should be selected such that the peak saturation or excessive leading-edge current spikes at start-up. drain voltage is lower than 650 V for all normal operating conditions. Repeat tests under steady-state conditions and verify that the This provides sufficient margin to ensure that occasional increase in voltage during line transients such as line surges will maintain the leading edge current spike is below ILIMIT(MIN) at the end of tLEB(MIN). Under all conditions, the maximum drain current for the primary peak drain voltage well below 750 V under abnormal transient switch should be below the specified absolute maximum ratings. operating conditions. This ensures excellent long term reliability and 3.

2. Higher VOR reduces the voltage stress on the output diodes and SR FETs.

3. Higher VOR increases leakage inductance which reduces power supply efficiency.

4. Higher VOR increases peak and RMS current on the secondary-side which may increase secondary-side copper and diode losses.

There are some exceptions to this. For very high output currents the VOR should be reduced to get highest efficiency. For output voltages above 15 V, VOR should be maintained higher to maintain an acceptable PIV across the output synchronous rectifier.

VOR choice will affect the operating efficiency and should be selected carefully. Table below shows the typical range of VOR for optimal performance:
