Description
The second generation TOPSwitch-II family is more cost
effective and provides several enhancements over the first
generation TOPSwitch family. The TOPSwitch-II family extends
the power range from 100W to 150W for 100/115/230 VAC
input and from 50W to 90W for 85-265 VAC universal input.
This brings TOPSwitch technology advantages to many new
applications, i.e. TV, Monitor, Audio amplifiers, etc. Many
significant circuit enhancements that reduce the sensitivity to
board layout and line transients now make the design even

TOPSwitch-II
Family Functional Description
TOPSwitch is a self biased and protected linear control currentto-duty cycle converter with an open drain output. High
efficiency is achieved through the use of CMOS and integration
of the maximum number of functions possible. CMOS process
significantly reduces bias currents as compared to bipolar or
discrete solutions. Integration eliminates external power
resistors used for current sensing and/or supplying initial startup bias current.
During normal operation, the duty cycle of the internal output
MOSFET decreases linearly with increasing CONTROL pin
current as shown in Figure 4. To implement all the required
control, bias, and protection functions, the DRAIN and
CONTROL pins each perform several functions as described
below. Refer to Figure 2 for a block diagram and to Figure 6 for
timing and voltage waveforms of the TOPSwitch integrated
circuit.

TOPSwitch-II
Family Functional Description (cont.)
Control Voltage Supply
CONTROL pin voltage VC is the supply or bias voltage for the
controller and driver circuitry. An external bypass capacitor
closely connected between the CONTROL and SOURCE pins
is required to supply the gate drive current. The total amount
of capacitance connected to this pin (C
) also sets the auto-
T
restart timing as well as control loop compensation. VC is
regulated in either of two modes of operation. Hysteretic
regulation is used for initial start-up and overload operation.
Shunt regulation is used to separate the duty cycle error signal
from the control circuit supply current. During start-up,
CONTROL pin current is supplied from a high-voltage switched
current source connected internally between the DRAIN and
CONTROL pins. The current source provides sufficient current
to supply the control circuitry as well as charge the total
external capacitance (CT).
The first time VC reaches the upper threshold, the high-voltage
current source is turned off and the PWM modulator and output
transistor are activated, as shown in Figure 5(a). During normal
operation (when the output voltage is regulated) feedback
control current supplies the VC supply current. The shunt
regulator keeps VC at typically 5.7 V by shunting CONTROL
pin feedback current exceeding the required DC supply current
through the PWM error signal sense resistor RE. The low
dynamic impedance of this pin (ZC) sets the gain of the error
amplifier when used in a primary feedback configuration. The
dynamic impedance of the CONTROL pin together with the
external resistance and capacitance determines the control loop
compensation of the power system.
If the CONTROL pin total external capacitance (CT) should
discharge to the lower threshold, the output MOSFET is turned
off and the control circuit is placed in a low-current standby
mode. The high-voltage current source turns on and charges the
external capacitance again. Charging current is shown with a
negative polarity and discharging current is shown with a
positive polarity in Figure 6. The hysteretic auto-restart
comparator keeps VC within a window of typically 4.7 to 5.7 V
by turning the high-voltage current source on and off as shown
in Figure 5(b). The auto-restart circuit has a divide-by-8
counter which prevents the output MOSFET from turning on
again until eight discharge-charge cycles have elapsed. The
counter effectively limits TOPSwitch power dissipation by
reducing the auto-restart duty cycle to typically 5%. Autorestart continues to cycle until output voltage regulation is
again achieved.
Bandgap Reference
All critical TOPSwitch internal voltages are derived from a
temperature-compensated bandgap reference. This reference
is also used to generate a temperature-compensated current
source which is trimmed to accurately set the oscillator frequency
and MOSFET gate drive current.

Oscillator
The internal oscillator linearly charges and discharges the
internal capacitance between two voltage levels to create a
sawtooth waveform for the pulse width modulator. The oscillator
sets the pulse width modulator/current limit latch at the beginning
of each cycle. The nominal frequency of 100 kHz was chosen
to minimize EMI and maximize efficiency in power supply
applications. Trimming of the current reference improves the
frequency accuracy.
Pulse Width Modulator
The pulse width modulator implements a voltage-mode control
loop by driving the output MOSFET with a duty cycle inversely
proportional to the current into the CONTROL pin which
generates a voltage error signal across RE. The error signal
across RE is filtered by an RC network with a typical corner
frequency of 7 kHz to reduce the effect of switching noise. The
filtered error signal is compared with the internal oscillator
sawtooth waveform to generate the duty cycle waveform. As
the control current increases, the duty cycle decreases. A clock
signal from the oscillator sets a latch which turns on the output
MOSFET. The pulse width modulator resets the latch, turning
off the output MOSFET. The maximum duty cycle is set by the
symmetry of the internal oscillator. The modulator has a
minimum ON-time to keep the current consumption of the
TOPSwitch independent of the error signal. Note that a minimum
current must be driven into the CONTROL pin before the duty
cycle begins to change.
Gate Driver
The gate driver is designed to turn the output MOSFET on at a
controlled rate to minimize common-mode EMI. The gate drive
current is trimmed for improved accuracy.
Error Amplifier
The shunt regulator can also perform the function of an error
amplifier in primary feedback applications. The shunt regulator
voltage is accurately derived from the temperature compensated
bandgap reference. The gain of the error amplifier is set by the
CONTROL pin dynamic impedance. The CONTROL pin
clamps external circuit signals to the VC voltage level. The
CONTROL pin current in excess of the supply current is
separated by the shunt regulator and flows through RE as a
voltage error signal.
Cycle-By-Cycle Current Limit
The cycle by cycle peak drain current limit circuit uses the
output MOSFET ON-resistance as a sense resistor. A current
limit comparator compares the output MOSFET ON-state drainsource voltage, V
current causes V
with a threshold voltage. High drain

normal operation of the power supply resumes.
Overtemperature Protection
The leading edge blanking circuit inhibits the current limit
comparator for a short time after the output MOSFET is turned
on. The leading edge blanking time has been set so that current
spikes caused by primary-side capacitances and secondary-side
rectifier reverse recovery time will not cause premature
termination of the switching pulse.
Temperature protection is provided by a precision analog
circuit that turns the output MOSFET off when the junction
temperature exceeds the thermal shutdown temperature
(typically 135 °C). Activating the power-up reset circuit by
removing and restoring input power or momentarily pulling the
CONTROL pin below the power-up reset threshold resets the
latch and allows TOPSwitch to resume normal power supply
The current limit can be lower for a short period after the leading
edge blanking time as shown in Figure 12. This is due to
dynamic characteristics of the MOSFET. To avoid triggering
operation. VC is regulated in hysteretic mode and a 4.7 V to
5.7 V (typical) sawtooth waveform is present on the CONTROL
pin when the power supply is latched off.

should stay within the envelope shown.
High-voltage Bias Current Source
This current source biases TOPSwitch from the DRAIN pin and
Shutdown/Auto-restart
To minimize TOPSwitch power dissipation, the shutdown/
auto-restart circuit turns the power supply on and off at an autorestart duty cycle of typically 5% if an out of regulation
condition persists. Loss of regulation interrupts the external
current into the CONTROL pin. VC regulation changes from
shunt mode to the hysteretic auto-restart mode described above.
When the fault condition is removed, the power supply output
charges the CONTROL pin external capacitance (CT) during
start-up or hysteretic operation. Hysteretic operation occurs
during auto-restart and overtemperature latched shutdown.
The current source is switched on and off with an effective duty
cycle of approximately 35%. This duty cycle is determined by
the ratio of CONTROL pin charge (IC) and discharge currents
(I
CD1
and I
). This current source is turned off during normal
CD2
operation when the output MOSFET is switching.

Following are just two of the many possible TOPSwitch
implementations. Refer to the Data Book and Design Guide
for additional examples.
4 W Standby Supply using 8 Lead PDIP
Figure 7 shows a 4 W standby supply. This supply is used in
appliances where certain standby functions (e.g. real time
clock, remote control port) must be kept active even while the
main power supply is turned off.
The 5 V secondary is used to supply the standby function and
the 12 V non-isolated output is used to supply power for the
PWM controller of the main power supply and other primary
side functions.
For this application the input rectifiers and input filter are sized
for the main supply and are not shown. The input DC rail may
vary from 100 V to 380 V DC which corresponds to the full
universal AC input range. The TOP221 is packaged in an 8 pin
power DIP package.
The output voltage (5 V) is directly sensed by the Zener diode
(VR1) and the optocoupler (U2). The output voltage is determined
by the sum of the Zener voltage and the voltage drop across the
LED of the optocoupler (the voltage drop across R1 is negligible).
The output transistor of the optocoupler drives the CONTROL
pin of the TOP221. C5 bypasses the CONTROL pin and provides
control loop compensation and sets the auto-restart frequency.
The transformer’s leakage inductance voltage spikes are snubbed
by R3 and C1 through diode D1. The bias winding is rectified
and filtered by D3 and C4 providing a non-isolated 12 V output
which is also used to bias the collector of the optocoupler’s
output transistor. The isolated 5 V output winding is rectified by
D2 and filtered by C2, L1 and C3.
