Functional Description
3 Functional Description
All values which are used in the functional description
are typical values. For calculating the worst cases the
min/max values which can be found in section 4
Electrical Characteristics have to be considered.
3.1
Introduction
CoolSET™-F3 is the further development of the
CoolSET™-F2 to meet the requirements for the lowest
Standby Power at minimum load and no load
conditions. A new fully integrated Standby Power
concept is implemented into the IC in order to keep the
application design easy. Compared to CoolSET™-F2
no further external parts are needed to achieve the
lowest Standby Power. An intelligent Active Burst
Mode is used for this Standby Mode. After entering this
mode there is still a full control of the power conversion
by the secondary side via the same optocoupler that is
used for the normal PWM control. The response on
load jumps is optimized. The voltage ripple on Vout is
minimized. Vout is on well controlled in this mode.
The usually external connected RC-filter in the
feedback line after the optocoupler is integrated in the
IC to reduce the external part count.
Furthermore a high voltage Startup Cell is integrated
into the IC which is switched off once the Undervoltage
Lockout on-threshold of 18V is exceeded. This Startup
Cell is part of the integrated Depl. CoolMOS™. The
external startup resistor is no longer necessary as this
Startup Cell is connected to the Drain. Power losses
are therefore reduced. This increases the efficiency
under light load conditions drastically.
This version is adopting the BiCMOS technology and it
can increase design flexibility as the Vcc voltage range
is increased to 26V.
For this LJ version, the soft start is a built-in function. It
is set at 20ms. Then it can save external component
counts.
There are 2 modes of blanking time for high load
jumps; the basic mode and the extendable mode. The
blanking time for the basic mode is pre-set at 20ms
while the extendable mode will increase the blanking
time at basic mode by adding external capacitor at the
BL pin. During this time window the overload detection
is disabled. With this concept no further external
components are necessary to adjust the blanking
window.
In order to increase the robustness and safety of the
system, the IC provides 2 levels of protection modes:
Latched Off Mode and Auto Restart Mode. The
Latched Off Mode is only entered under dangerous
conditions which can damage the SMPS if not switched
off immediately. A restart of the system can only be
done by recycling the AC line. In addition, for this LJ
version, there is an external Latch Enable function
provided to increase the flexibility in protection. When
the BL pin is pulled down to less than 0.1V, the Latch
Off Mode is triggered.
The Auto Restart Mode reduces the average power
conversion to a minimum under unsafe operating
conditions. This is necessary for a prolonged fault
condition which could otherwise lead to a destruction of
the SMPS over time. Once the malfunction is removed,
normal operation is automatically retained after the
next Start Up Phase.
The internal precise peak current limitation reduces the
costs for the transformer and the secondary diode. The
influence of the change in the input voltage on the
power limitation can be avoided together with the
integrated Propagation Delay Compensation.
Therefore the maximum power is nearly independent
on the input voltage which is required for wide range
SMPS. There is no need for an extra over-sizing of the
SMPS, e.g. the transformer or the secondary diode.
Furthermore, this LJ version implements the frequency
jitter mode to the switching clock such that the EMI
noise will be effectively reduced.
