STCC05-B
the voltage to the buzzer, this circuit feeds the buzzer with the exponential voltage induced by the charge
and the discharge of the RS CS network.
The ROH and RS resistors contribute to reduce high harmonic sound distortions. Indeed, they limit the peak
current through the buzzer, feed the buzzer with the CS capacitor voltage, and limit the current through
the low side NPN transistor of the driver.
Therefore to set rising/falling durations of the sound shape, it is advised to adjust only the value of the CS
capacitor.
The integrated RBZ resistor is selected to discharge the buzzer when the low side transistor is off, espe-
cially at the maximum operating frequency. The buzzer is completely discharged within five times the time
constant of the resistor-buzzer with τ = RBZ x CBUZZER.
Therefore, RBZ < 1 / (10 x FMAX x CBUZZER). Since the buzzer capacitance CBUZZER is about 20nF at the
maximum operating frequency of driver is 5kHz, this RBZ resistance is set at 1kΩ.

■ ZERO CROSSING DETECTION CIRCUITS
The detection of the zero crossing of the AC line voltage can be achieved at least on two ways with the
STCC05, depending of the power supply unit.
When the power supply uses a magnetic 50/60Hz transformer, the input pin SYN is connected to a trans-
former output through a resistor RZV, the electrical path being closed by the low side bridge diodes.

The delay between the real Zero Crossing event
and the falling edge of ZVS depends on the inter-
nal filtering time, the resistance RZV, the rectifier
drop voltage VF, the VPS supply load and the tem-
perature. The STCC05 contribution to this delay
can be evaluated by measuring the delay between
its input voltage VTF and its output voltage VZVS.
When using VF = 0.8V, RZV = 15kΩ, VPS = 15V,
ICC = 20mA, it is about 50 µs on rising voltage VTF
and 115 µs on falling voltage VTF.
When the power supply uses a switch mode power
supply, the input pin SYN is synchronized by an
opto-coupler, which is connected to the mains ter-
minals through high resistances. The isolator out-
put is on all the time except during the zero
crossing where no more current feeds the input
and the output transistor switches off.
