VIPer53ESP - E
OFF-line Primary Switch
Features
■Switching frequency up to 300kHz
■Current mode control with adjustable limitation
■Soft start and shut-down control
■Automatic burst mode in standby condition (“Blue Angel“ compliant )
■Undervoltage lockout with Hysteresis
■Integrated start-up current source
■Over-temperature protection
■Overload and short-circuit control
■Overvoltage protection
■In compliance with the 2002/95/EC European Directive
Description
The VIPer53E combines an enhanced current mode PWM controller with a high voltage MDMesh Power MOSFET in the same package.
Block diagram
PowerSO-10 |
DIP-8 |
Typical applications cover offline power supplies with a secondary power capability ranging up to 30W in wide range input voltage, or 50W in single European voltage range and DIP-8 package and 40W in wide range input voltage, or 65W in single European voltage range and PowerSO-10 package, with the following benefits:
–Overload and short-circuit events controlled by feedback monitoring and delayed device reset;
–Efficient standby mode by enhanced pulse skipping.
–Integrated start-up current source is disabled during normal operation to reduce the input power.

1.1Maximum rating
Stressing the device above the rating listed in the “Absolute Maximum Ratings” table may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only and operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the Operating sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to Absolute Maximum Rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability. Refer also to the STMicroelectronics SURE Program and other relevant quality documents.

Pin Function |
|
|
|
|
|
Power supply of the control circuits. Also provides the charging current of the external |
|
|
capacitor during start-up. |
VDD |
|
The functions of this pin are managed by four threshold voltages: |
|
- VDDon: Voltage value at which the device starts switching (Typically 11.5 V). |
-VDDoff: Voltage value at which the device stops switching (Typically 8.4 V).
-VDDovp: Triggering voltage of the overvoltage protection (Trimmed to 18 V).
SOURCE Power MOSFET source and circuit ground reference.
DRAIN
Power MOSFET drain. Also used by the internal high voltage current source during the start-up phase, to charge the external VDD capacitor.
Allows the setting of the dynamic characteristic of the converter through an external passive network. The useful voltage range extends from 0.5V to 4.5V. The Power
COMP MOSFET is always off below 0.5V, and the overload protection is triggered if the voltage exceeds 4.35V. This action is delayed by the timing capacitor connected to the TOVL pin.
TOVL
Allows the connection of an external capacitor for delaying the overload protection, which is triggered by a voltage on the COMP pin higher than 4.4V.
OSC |
Allows the setting of the switching frequency through an external Rt-Ct network. |

Secondary Feedback Configuration Example |
|

5 Secondary Feedback Configuration Example
The secondary feedback is implemented through an optocoupler driven by a programmable zener diode (TL431 type) as shown in Figure 3 on page 8
The optocoupler is connected in parallel with the compensation network on the COMP pin which delivers a constant biasing current of 0.6mA to the optotransistor. This current does not depend on the compensation voltage, and so it does not depend on the output load either. Consequently, the gain of the optocoupler ensures a constant biasing of the TL431 device (U3), which is responsible for secondary regulation. If the optocoupler gain is sufficiently low, no additional components are required to a minimum current biasing of U3. Additionally, the low biasing current protects the optocoupler from premature failure.
The constant current biasing can be used to simplify the secondary circuit: instead of a TL431, a simple zener and resistance network in series with the optocoupler diode can insure a good secondary regulation. Current flowing in this branch remains constant just as it does by using a TL431, so typical load regulation of 1% can be achieved from zero to full output current with this simple configuration.
Since the dynamic characteristics of the converter are set on the secondary side through components associated to U3, the compensation network has only a role of gain stabilization for the optocoupler, and its value can be freely chosen. R5 can be set to a fixed value of 2.2kΩ, offering the possibility of using C7 as a soft start capacitor: When starting up the converter, the VIPer53E device delivers a constant current of 0.6mA on the COMP pin, creating a constant voltage of 1.3V in R5 and a rising slope across C7. This voltage shape, together with the operating range of 0.5V to 4.5V provides a soft startup of the converter. The rising speed of the output voltage can be set through the value of C7. The C4 and C6 values must be adjusted accordingly in order to ensure a correct startup.

Current Mode Topology |
VIPer53EDIP - E / VIPer53ESP - E |

6 Current Mode Topology
The VIPer53E implements the conventional current mode control method for regulating the output voltage. This kind of feedback includes two nested regulation loops:
The inner loop controls the peak primary current cycle by cycle. When the Power MOSFET output transistor is on, the inductor current (primary side of the transformer) is monitored
with a SenseFET technique and converted into a voltage. When VS reaches VCOMP, the power switch is turned off. This structure is completely integrated as shown on the Block
Diagram of Figure on page 1, with the current amplifier, the PWM comparator, the blanking time function and the PWM latch. The following formula gives the peak current in the Power MOSFET according to the compensation voltage:
IDpeak |
VCOMP – VCOMPos |
= ------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
HCOMP |
The outer loop defines the level at which the inner loop regulates peak current in the power switch. For this purpose, VCOMP is driven by the feedback network (TL431 through an optocoupler in secondary feedback configuration, see Figure 3 on page 8) and is sets accordingly the peak drain current for each switching cycle.
As the inner loop regulates the peak primary current in the primary side of the transformer, all input voltage changes are compensated for before impacting the output voltage. This results in an improved line regulation, instantaneous correction to line changes, and better stability for the voltage regulation loop.
Current mode topology also provides a good converter start-up control. The compensation voltage can be controlled to increase slowly during the start-up phase, so the peak primary current will follow this soft voltage slope to provide a smooth output voltage rise, without any overshoot. The simpler voltage mode structure which only controls the duty cycle, leads generally to high current at start-up with the risk of transformer saturation.
An integrated blanking filter inhibits the PWM comparator output for a short time after the integrated Power MOSFET is switched on. This function prevents anomalous or premature termination of the switching pulse in the case of current spikes caused by primary side transformer capacitance or secondary side rectifier reverse recovery time when working in continuous mode.
