Functional Description
controller can only take place after Active Mode was
entered and VVCC falls below 8.5V.
The maximum current consumption before the
controller is activated is about 170µA.
When VVCC falls below the off-threshold VCCoff=8.5V the
internal reference is switched off and the Power Down
reset let T1 discharging the soft-start capacitor CSoftS at
pin SoftS. Thus it is ensured that at every startup cycle
the voltage ramp at pin SoftS starts at zero.
The internal Voltage Reference is switched off if
Latched Off Mode or Auto Restart Mode is entered.
The current consumption is then reduced to 300µA.
When Active Burst Mode is entered the internal Bias is
switched off in order to reduce the current consumption
below 1.1mA while keeping the Voltage Reference still
active as this is necessary in this mode.
In case Latched Off Mode is entered VCC needs to be
lowered below 6V to reset the Latched Off Mode. This
is done usually by disconnecting the SMPS from the
AC line.
capacitor CSofts in combination with the internal pull up
resistor RSoftS determines the duty cycle until VSoftS
exceeds 4V.
In the beginning CSoftS is immediately charged up to
approx. 1V by T2. Therefore the Soft Start Phase takes
place between 1V and 4V. Above VSoftsS = 4V there is
no longer duty cycle limitation DCmax is controlled by
comparator C7 as comparator C2 blocks the gate G7
(see Figure 6).The maximum charge current in the very
first phase when VSoftS is below 1V is limited to 1.9mA.

By means of this extra charge stage there is no delay
in the beginning of the Startup Phase when there is still
no switching. Furthermore Soft Start is finished at 4V to
have faster the maximum power capability. The duty
cycles DC1 and DC2 are depending on the mains and
the primary inductance of the transformer. The
limitation of the primary current by DC2 is related to
VSoftS = 4V. But DC1 is related to a maximum primary
current which is limited by the internal Current Limiting
with CS = 1V. Therefore the maximum Startup Phase
is divided into a Soft Start Phase until t1 and a phase
from t1 until t2 where maximum power is provided if
demanded by the FB signal.
