HFC0511
Fixed-Frequency Flyback Controller with
Ultra-Low, No-Load Power Consumption
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The HFC0511 is a fixed-frequency, currentmode
controller
with
internal
slope
compensation
specifically
designed
for
medium-power, offline, flyback, switch-mode
power supplies. The HFC0511 is a highly
efficient green-mode controller. At light loads,
the controller freezes the peak current and
reduces its switching frequency down to 27kHz
to achieve excellent light-load efficiency. At very
light loads, the controller enters burst mode to
achieve very low standby power consumption.
The HFC0511 offers frequency jittering to help
dissipate energy generated by the conducted
noise.
The HFC0511 employs an over-power
compensation function to narrow the difference
of the over-power protection point between the
low line and high line.
The HFC0511 also has an X-cap discharge
function to discharge the X-capacitor when the
input is unplugged. This helps lower the power
at no load.
Full protection features include thermal
shutdown, VCC under-voltage lockout (UVLO),
overload
protection
(OLP),
over-voltage
protection (OVP), and brown-out protection.
The HFC0511 is available in a SOIC8-7A
package.

NOTES:
1) Exceeding these ratings may damage the device.
2) The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the
maximum junction temperature TJ (MAX), the junction-toambient thermal resistance θJA, and the ambient temperature
TA. The maximum allowable continuous power dissipation at
any ambient temperature is calculated by PD (MAX) = (TJ
(MAX)-TA)/θJA. Exceeding the maximum allowable power
dissipation produces an excessive die temperature, causing
the regulator to go into thermal shutdown. Internal thermal
shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent
damage.
3) The device is not guaranteed to function outside of its
operating conditions.

HFC0511 – FIXED-FREQUENCY FLYBACK CONTROLLER W/ ULTRA-LOW NO LOAD POWER CONSUMPTION
OPERATION
The HFC0511 incorporates all necessary
features for building a reliable switch-mode
power supply. The HFC0511 is a fixedfrequency, current-mode controller with internal
slope compensation. At light loads, the
controller freezes the peak current and reduces
its switching frequency down to 27kHz to
minimize switching losses. When the output
power falls below a given level, the controller
enters burst mode. The HFC0511 also has
excellent EMI performance due to frequency
jittering. The HFC0511’s high level of
integration requires very few external
components.
Fixed Frequency with Jitter
Frequency jitter reduces EMI by spreading the
energy over the jitter frequency range. Figure 2
shows the circuit of the frequency jittering.

Figure 3: Frequency Jitter
Frequency Foldback
The HFC0511 implements frequency foldback
at light load to improve overall efficiency.
When the load decreases to a given level (1.0V
< VFB < 1.8V), the controller freezes the peak
current (as measured on CS, typically 0.7V)
while reducing its switching frequency to 27kHz.
This reduces switching loss. If the load
continues to decrease, the peak current
decreases with 27kHz of fixed frequency to
avoid audible noise. Figure 4 shows the
frequency vs. VFB and peak current (VCS) vs.
VFB.

The feedback voltage (VFB) controls the primary
peak current. When the peak current reaches
the level determined by VFB, DRV turns off. The
controller can also be used in continuous
conduction mode (CCM) with a wide input
voltage range because of its internal slope
compensation (typically 25mV/µs), avoiding
sub-harmonic oscillations above a 50% duty
cycle.

HFC0511 – FIXED-FREQUENCY FLYBACK CONTROLLER W/ ULTRA-LOW NO LOAD POWER CONSUMPTION
High Voltage Start-Up Current Source with
Brown-Out Detection
At start-up, the internal high-voltage current
1.75V
source from HV supplies the IC. The IC turns
off the current source once VCC reaches
VCCOFF (typically 15.5V) and detects the
voltage on HV. Once the HV voltage exceeds
HVON before VCC drops down to VCCSS
(typically 12V), the controller begins switching.
If the HV voltage does not exceed VHON, the
system treats this as a brown-out and latches
DRV low. When VCC drops to VCCPRO
(typically 5.5V), the high-voltage current source
turns on to recharge VCC. The auxiliary
transformer winding supplies the IC after the
controller starts switching. If VCC falls below
VCCON (typically 8.5V), the switching pulse
stops, and the current source turns on again.
Figure 5 shows the typical VCC under-voltage
lockout (UVLO) waveform.

Figure 6: Soft Start
Burst Mode
To minimize power dissipation in no load or
light load, the HFC0511 employs burst-mode
operation. As the load decreases, VFB
decreases. The IC enters burst mode when VFB
drops below the lower threshold (VBURL, typically
0.7V), stopping output switching. Then the
output voltage starts to drop, which causes VFB
to increase again. Once VFB exceeds VBURH
(typically 0.8V), switching resumes. Burst mode
enables and disables MOSFET switching
alternately, thereby reducing no-load or lightload switching losses.

Figure 5: VCC Under-Voltage Lockout
The VCC lower threshold UVLO drops from
VCCON to VCCPRO under fault conditions such
as overload protection (OLP), short-circuit
protection (SCP), brown-out, and overtemperature protection (OTP).
Soft Start (SS)
Soft start is externally programmable with a
capacitor on TIMER. As this capacitor charges
from 1V to 1.75V with 1/4 of the normal charge
current, the peak-current limit threshold
increases gradually from 0.25V to 1V while
increasing the switching frequency gradually.
Figure 6 shows the typical soft-start waveform.
The TIMER capacitor determines the start-up
duration as shown in Equation (2):

Adjustable Over-Power Compensation
An offset current proportional to the input
voltage is added to the current sense voltage.
By choosing the value of the resistor to be in
series with CS, the amount of compensation
can be adjusted to the application for a more
accurate output power limit at the total input
range. Figure 7 and Figure 8 show the
compensation current relation to FB and the
peak voltage on HV respectively.

Short-Circuit Protection (SCP)
The HFC0511 employs short-circuit protection
(SCP) if VCS reaches VSCP (typically 1.47V) after
a reduced leading-edge blanking time (TLEB2).
Once the fault disappears, the power supply
resumes operation.

Timer-Based Overload Protection (OLP)
In a flyback converter, if the switching
frequency is fixed, the maximum output power
is limited by the peak current. The output
voltage drops below the set value when the
output power exceeds the power limit. This
reduces the current through the optocoupler,
pulling VFB high.
When FB is higher than the OLP voltage (VOLP)
(typically 3.7V), which is considered to be an
error flag, the timer begins counting. If the error
flag is removed during the count, the timer
resets. If the timer count reaches 17, OLP is
triggered. This timer duration avoids triggering
OLP during power supply start-up or short load
transients. Figure 9 shows the OLP function.
Figure 9: Overload Protection
Timer-Based Brown-Out Protection
The brown-out protection block is similar to the
OLP block. When the HV voltage drops below
HVOFF (typically 97V), which is considered to be
an error flag, the timer begins counting. Once
the HV voltage is higher than HVOFF, the timer
resets. When the timer counts to 17, brown-out
protection is triggered and switching stops.

Thermal Shutdown
To prevent thermal damage, the HFC0511
stops switching when the temperature exceeds
150°C. Once the temperature drops below
125°C, the power supply resumes operation.
During thermal shutdown, the VCC UVLO lower
threshold drops from 8.5V to 5.5V.
VCC Over-Voltage Protection (OVP)
The HFC0511 enters a latched fault condition if
VCC rises above VOVP (typically 26.5V) for 60µs.
The controller remains fully latched until VCC
drops below VCCLATCH (typically 2.5V), such as
when the power supply is unplugged from the
main input and is plugged in again. This
situation usually occurs when the optocoupler
fails, which results in the loss of output voltage
regulation.
TIMER Latch-Off for OVP and OTP
Pulling TIMER below VTIMER(LATCH) (typically 1V)
for 12µs can latch off the IC. This function can
be used for external over-voltage protection
(OVP) and OTP.
X-Cap Discharge Function
X-capacitors are typically positioned across a
power supply’s input terminals to filter
differential mode EMI noise. These components
pose a potential hazard since they can store
unsafe levels of voltage energy after the AC line
is disconnected. Generally, resistors in parallel
with the X-caps provide a discharge path to
meet safety standards, but these discharge
resistors produce a constant loss while the AC
is connected and contribute to no-load and
standby input power consumption.

HFC0511 – FIXED-FREQUENCY FLYBACK CONTROLLER W/ ULTRA-LOW NO LOAD POWER CONSUMPTION
HV acts as a smart X-cap discharger. When AC
voltage is applied, the internal high-voltage
current source turns off to block HV current,
and the IC monitors the HV voltage. When
removing the AC voltage, the IC turns on the
high-voltage current source after about 32
TIMER cycles to discharge the X-cap energy.
The first discharge duration is 16 cycles. After
the first discharge, the IC turns off the current
source for 16 cycles to detect whether the input
is plugged into the AC line again. If the AC input
remains disconnected, the IC turns on the
current source for 48 cycles to discharge again,
and then turn off for 16 cycles to detect
repeatedly until the voltage on the X-cap drops
to VCC. Once the reconnected AC input is
detected, the high-voltage current source
remains off until VCC drops to VCCPRO (5.3V),
and then restarts the system by recharging
VCC. Figure 10 shows the discharge function
waveforms.

DRV is clamped at VClamp (typically 13.4V) when

Leading-Edge Blanking
An internal leading-edge blanking (LEB) unit
containing two LEB times is employed between
the CS and the current comparator input to
prevent premature switching pulse termination
due to parasitic capacitances (see Figure 11).
During the blanking time, the current
comparator is disabled and cannot turn off the
external MOSFET.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
VCC Capacitor Selection
Figure 12 shows the start-up circuit. The values
of R1 and C1 determine the system start-up
delay time. A larger R1 or C1 increases the
start-up delay.
A larger inductor leads to a smaller KP, which
can reduce RMS current, but increases
transformer size. An optimal KP value is
between 0.6 and 0.8 for the universal input
range and 0.8 to 1 for a 230VAC input range.

The VCC duration (from VCCOFF to VCCSS) for
brown-out detection should exceed half of the
input period. Estimate a value for the VCC
capacitor with Equation (3):
CVCC
ICC(noswitch) 0.5 Tinput
VCCOFF VCCSS
(3)
Where ICC(noswitch) is the internal consumption
(close to ICClatch), and Tinput is the period of the
AC input. For most applications, choose a VCC
capacitor value that exceeds 10µF.
A higher R1 value decreases the current of the
internal high-voltage current source, especially
at a low-input condition. Ensure that the
practical supply current from HV is not smaller
than the corresponding internal IC consumption
current, which is the same as ICCLATCH. For the
universal input range, R1 should be smaller
than 80kΩ. 20kΩ is generally recommended.
Primary-Side Inductor Design (Lm)
With internal slope compensation, the HFC0511
can support CCM when the duty cycle exceeds
50%. Set a ratio (KP) of the primary inductor’s
ripple current amplitude vs. the peak current
value to 0 < KP 1, where KP = 1 for
discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). Figure
13 shows the relevant waveforms.

Where VO is the output voltage, IO is the rated
output current, and is the estimated efficiency,
which is generally between 0.75 and 0.85
depending on the input range and output

When the sum of the sensing resistor voltage

measured by VCS) is 0.95V. The slope
compensator (Vslope) is ~25mV/µs. Given a
certain margin, use 0.95xVlimit as Vpeak at full

for SCP (TLEB2, typically 270ns), otherwise the

HFC0511 – FIXED-FREQUENCY FLYBACK CONTROLLER W/ ULTRA-LOW NO LOAD POWER CONSUMPTION
Over-Power Compensation (OPC)
The
HFC0511
uses
an
over-power
compensation function (OPC) by drawing
current from CS. OPC minimizes the OLP
difference caused by a different input voltage.
The offset current is proportional to the input
peak voltage sensed by HV.
Supposing that the resistor in the current
sensing loop is Rseries, and the input voltage is
220VAC, calculate the compensation voltage on
CS with Equation (15):
Vcomp Rseries Iopc _ 310V
(15)
The compensation criterion is making the FB
voltage under full-load condition similar whether
in high line or low line.
Jitter Period
Frequency jitter is an effective method to
reduce EMI by dissipating energy. The nth order
harmonic noise bandwidth is calculated with
Equation (16):
BTn n (2 f fjitter )
X-Cap Discharge Time
Figure 10 shows the X-cap discharger
waveforms. The maximum discharge time
occurs at a high-line input with no-load
condition. The maximum discharge delay time
is calculated with Equation (17):
Tdelay 32 Tjitter
If BTn exceeds the resolution bandwidth (RBW)
of the spectrum analyzer (200Hz for noise
frequency less than 150kHz, 9kHz for noise
frequency between 150kHz to 30MHz), the
spectrum analyzer receives less noise energy.
The capacitor on TIMER determines the period
of the frequency jitter. A 10µA current source
charges the capacitor. When the TIMER
voltage reaches 3.2V, another 10µA current
source discharges the capacitor to 2.8V. This
charging and discharging cycle repeats.
Equation (2) describes the jitter period in theory.
A smaller fjitter is more effective for EMI
reduction.
However,
the
measurement
bandwidth requires that fjitter be large compared
to the spectrum analyzer RBW for effective EMI
reduction. fjitter should also be less than the
control-loop-gain crossover frequency to avoid
disturbing the output voltage regulation.
Simultaneously
consider
the
practical
application when selecting the TIMER capacitor.
A capacitor that is too large may cause the
start-up to fail at full load because of the long
soft start-up duration shown in Equation (3).
(17)
The X-cap is discharged from a high-voltage
constant current source (IHV_120V, typically
2.5mA) into HV. The current-source discharge
time for the X-cap to drop to 37% of the peak
voltage can be estimated with Equation (18):
Tdischarge
(16)
Where f is the frequency jitter amplitude.
HFC0511 Rev. 1.0
5/3/2017
However, a TIMER capacitor that is too small
causes the TIMER period to become smaller,
so the TIMER count capability is overloaded,
and some logic problems may occur. For most
applications, a fjitter value between 200Hz and
400Hz is recommended.
CX 63% 2 Vac(max)
IHV _120V
(18)
Where CX is the X-cap capacitance, and VAC(max)
is the maximum AC input RMS value.
The first discharging period is 16xTjitter, with a
subsequent period equal to 48xTjitter. Then the
discharge sections times can be calculated
approximately with Equation (19):
n
Tdischarge 16 Tjitter
48 Tjitter
1
(19)
For every discharge section, there is a certain
period (16xTjitter) for detection as shown in
Equation (20):
Tdetect 16 Tjitter (
n 1)
(20)
As a result, the total discharge time is
determined with Equation (21):
Ttotal Tdelay Tdischarge Tdetect
(21)
The total discharge time is relative to Tjitter,
which is dependent on CTIMER. For example, if
CTIMER is 47nF, and Tjitter is 3.7ms, the X-cap
discharge margin is 1s due to the X-cap value
tolerance (10% typically). It is recommended
to select an X-cap less than 3.3μF.

Though the X-cap has been discharged, it may
still retain a high voltage on the bulk capacitor.

Rsense is the slew rate of the

operation, α must be less than 1.
PCB Layout Guidelines
Efficient PCB layout is critical for stable
operation, good EMI performance, and good
thermal performance. For best results, refer to
Figure 16 and follow the guidelines below.
1) Minimize the power stage loop area
including the input loop (C1 - T1 - Q1 R11/R12/R13 - C1), the auxiliary winding
loop (T1 - D4 - R4 - C3 - T1), and the output
loop (T1 - D6 - C10 - T1).

Only connect them at C1.
3) Connect the Q1 heat sink to the primary
GND plane to improve EMI.
4) Place the control circuit capacitors (such as
those for FB, CS, and VCC) close to the IC
to decouple noise.
