Application note
EVLVIPER28L-10W: 5 V/10 W, 60 kHz isolated flyback with extra power management
Introduction
This document describes a 5 V, 2 A application with 3.3 A peak current capability of 1.9 sec, using VIPer28, a new offline high-voltage converter from STMicroelectronics.
In some applications, an SMPS sometimes undergoes load peaks that can be two or more times as much as the power it is supposed to deliver, though only for a short time interval compared to the thermal time constants of the power components. Typical examples of such loads are printers and audio systems.
In such cases, it is more cost-effective to thermally design the system for the maximum continuous power and not for the peak power demand, which is sustained only for a limited time window.
Such a design is possible thanks to the EPT function of the VIPer28, which allows the designer to fix the maximum time window during which the converter is able to manage the peak power and still maintain output voltage regulation. If the overload lasts for longer than this time window, the converter is automatically shut down and enters auto-restart mode until the overload is removed, so as to prevent damage to the power components.
The device has many other features such as an 800 V avalanche rugged power section, PWM operation at 60 kHz with frequency jittering for lower EMI, a limiting current with adjustable setpoint, an on-board soft-start, a safe auto-restart after a fault condition, and a low standby power (< 50 mW at 265 VAC).
The available protections include adjustable and accurate overvoltage protection, thermal shutdown with hysteresis and delayed overload protection.

The power supply is set-up in a flyback topology. Its schematic is shown in Figure 2. The input section includes the protection elements (fuse and NTC for inrush current limiting), a filter for EMC suppression (C1, T2, C13), a diode bridge (BR1) and an electrolytic bulk capacitor (C3) as the front-end AC-DC converter. The transformer uses a standard E25 ferrite core. A transil clamp network is used to demagnetize the leakage inductance.
At power-up, the DRAIN pin supplies the internal HV start-up current generator that charges the C4 capacitor up to VDDon. At this point, the power MOSFET starts switching, the generator is turned off and the IC is powered by the energy stored in C4 until the auxiliary winding voltage becomes high enough to sustain the operation through D1 and R1.
The value of the resistor R3 between the CONT and GND pins is high enough that the VIPer28’s current limit does not change with respect to the datasheet’s default value IDlim. This resistor, in conjunction with D2, R14 and R15, is used to realize the overvoltage protection and the feedforward correction function, as described further in this document.
The output rectifier D4 has been selected according to the calculated maximum reverse voltage, forward voltage drop and power dissipation, and is a power Schottky type.
The output voltage regulation is performed by a secondary feedback with a TS431 driving an optocoupler (in this case a PC817) ensuring the required insulation between the primary and secondary. The opto-transistor drives directly the FB pin of the VIPer28, which is connected to the compensation network made up by C6, C7 and R12.
A small LC filter has been added at the output in order to filter the high-frequency ripple without increasing the size of the output capacitors, and a 100 nF capacitor has been placed very close to the solder points of the output connector to limit the spike amplitude.

Testing the board |

The drain voltage and current waveforms are reported for the two nominal input voltages and for the minimum and maximum voltages of the converter’s input operating range.
Figure 7 and Figure 8 show the drain current voltage waveforms at nominal input voltages (115 VAC and 230 VAC) and maximum load (2 A). Figure 9 and Figure 10 show the same waveforms for the same load conditions, but with minimum (90 VAC) and maximum
(265 VAC) input voltages.
Figure 11 and Figure 12 show the same waveforms during peak load conditions (3.3 A), which the converter is able to sustain for approximately 1.9 seconds while still keeping the output voltage under regulation.
The converter is operated in continuous conduction mode (CCM) at low input voltage during full load conditions and even at high input voltage during peak load conditions. CCM allows reducing the value of the root mean square currents, both on the primary side (in the power switch) and on the secondary side (in the output diode D4 and in the output capacitors C9 and C14), thus reducing the power dissipation and the stress on the power components.

The output voltage of the board has been measured with different line and load conditions. The results are reported in Table 5. The output voltage is not affected by the line condition. The VDD voltage has also been measured to verify that it is within the device’s operating range.
As confirmed by the results reported in Table 5, the VDD voltage (unregulated auxiliary output) increases as the load on the regulated output increases. To prevent the VDD voltage from exceeding its operating range, an external clamp has been used (Dz, Rz).

The ripple at the switching frequency superimposed at the output voltage has also been measured and the results are reported in Table 6. The board is provided with an LC filter to better filter the voltage ripple.
