Figure 5 Variation of the VCS limit voltage according
to the IZC current
According to the typical application circuit, when
MOSFET is turned on, a negative voltage proportional
to bus voltage will be coupled to auxiliary winding.
Inside ICL8001G, an internal circuit will clamp the
voltage on ZC pin to nearly 0V. As a result, the current
flowing out from ZC pin can be calculated as
IZC
=
-V----B-----U----S----N-----a-
RZC1NP
[5]
When this current is higher than IZC_1, the amount of
current exceeding this threshold is used to generate an
offset to decrease the maximum limit on VCS. Since the
ideal curve shown in Figure 5 is a nonlinear one, a
digital block in ICL8001G is implemented to get a better
control of maximum output power. Additional
advantage to use digital circuit is the production
tolerance is smaller compared to analog solutions. The
typical maximum limit on VCS versus the ZC current is
shown in Figure 6.

Latched Off Mode
During operation, the VCC voltage is continuously
monitored. In case of an under- or an over-voltage, the
IC is reset and the main power switch is then kept off.
After the VCC voltage falls below the threshold VVCCoff,
the startup cell is activated. The VCC capacitor is then
charged up. Once the voltage exceeds the threshold
VVCCon, the IC begins to operate with a new soft-start.
During off-time of the power switch, the voltage at the
zero-crossing pin is monitored for output over-voltage
detection. If the voltage is higher than the preset
threshold vZCOVP, the IC is latched off after the preset
blanking time.
If the junction temperature of IC exceeds 140 0C, the IC
enter into autorestart mode.
If the voltage at the current sensing pin is higher than
the preset threshold vCSSW during on-time of the power
switch, the IC is latched off. This is short-winding
protection.
During latch-off protection mode, when the VCC
voltage drops to 10.5V,the startup cell is activated and
the VCC voltage is charged to 18V then the startup cell
is shut down again and repeats the previous procedure.
There is also a maximum on time limitation inside
ICL8001G. Once the gate voltage is high longer than
tOnMAx, it is turned off immediately.
