SF1530
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
SF1530 is a high performance, low cost, highly
integrated current mode PWM controller for offline
flyback converter applications.
PWM switching frequency with shuffling is externally
programmable, which can reduce conduction EMI
emission of a power supply. When the output power
demands decrease, the IC automatically decreases
switching frequency for high power conversion
efficiency. When the current set-point falls below a
given value, e.g. the output power demand
diminishes, the IC enters into burst mode and
provides excellent efficiency without audio noise.
The IC can achieve “Zero OCP/OPP Recovery Gap”
using SiFirst’s proprietary control algorithm.
Meanwhile, the OCP/OPP variation versus universal
line input is compensated.
The IC has built-in synchronized slope compensation
to prevent sub-harmonic oscillation at high PWM duty
output. The IC also has built-in soft start function to
soften the stress on the MOSFET during power on
period.
SF1530 integrates functions and protections of Under
Voltage Lockout (UVLO), VCC Over Voltage
Protection (OVP), Cycle-by-cycle Current Limiting
(OCP), All Pins Floating Protection, Over Load
Protection (OLP), RT Pin Short-to-GND Protection,
Gate Clamping, VCC Clamping, Leading Edge
Blanking (LEB).
SF1530 is available in SOT23-6, SOP-8 and DIP-8
packages.

Pin Description
Pin Num Pin Name I/O Description
1 GND P Ground
2 FB I Voltage feedback pin. The loop regulation is achieved by connecting a
photo-coupler to this pin. PWM duty cycle is determined by this pin voltage
and the current sense signal at Pin 3.
3 RT I Set the switching frequency by connecting a resistor between RT and
GND. This pin has floating/short-to-GND protection.
4 CS I Current sense input pin.
5 VDD P IC power supply pin.
6 GATE O Totem-pole gate driver output to drive the external MOSFET.
