MP6004
Primary-Side Regulated Flyback/Buck
80V DCDC Converter
The Future of Analog IC Technology
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MP6004 is a monolithic flyback dc-dc
converter with a 180 V power switch that
targets isolated or non-isolated 13 W PoE
applications. It supports both primary-side
regulated flyback and high-voltage buck
applications.
•
MP6004 uses fixed peak current and variable
frequency discontinuous conduction mode
(DCM) to regulate constant output voltage. The
primary-side regulation without opto-coupler
feedback in flyback mode simplifies the design
and saves BOM cost while buck mode
minimizes the solution size for non-isolated
applications. A 180 V integrated power
MOSFET optimizes the device for various wide
voltage applications.
The MP6004 protection features include overload protection, over-voltage protection, opencircuit protection, and thermal shutdown.
The MP6004 is available
3mm x 3mm package.

NOTES:
1) Exceeding these ratings may damage the device.
2) Refer to the “Output Voltage Setting” section on page 18.
3) VCC and EN voltage can be pulled higher than this rating, but
the external pull-up current should be limited. Refer to “VCC
sinking current” and “EN sinking current” ratings to the left.
4) Refer to the “VCC Power Supply Setting” section on page 17..
5) Refer to the “EN Control Setting” section on page 17.
6) 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.
7) The device is not guaranteed to function outside of its
operating conditions.

OPERATION
Start-Up and Power Supply
MP6004 features an 80 V start-up circuit. When
VIN is higher than 4.3 V, the capacitor at VCC is
charged through the internal LDO. Normally VCC
is regulated at 5.4 V (if VIN is high enough),
and the VCC UVLO is 4.7 V, typically. With the
exception of VCC UVLO, the MP6004 has an
additional 11.6 V VIN UVLO. When VIN is higher
than the 11.6 V UVLO, VCC is charged higher
than the 4.7 V UVLO, and EN pin is high,
MP6004 starts switching.
VCC can be powered from the transformer
auxiliary winding to save IC power loss. Refer
to the “Vcc Power Supply Setting” section on
page 18 for more details.

Flyback and Buck Mode
MP6004 supports both flyback and buck

to set the MP6004 in flyback mode, and float
MODE to set the MP6004 in buck mode. MODE
is pulled up internally to VCC through a 1.5 µA
current source. Do not connect MODE to VIN in
buck mode, and do not place a resistor
between MODE and GND in flyback mode.

After start-up, MP6004 works in discontinuous
conduction mode (DCM). The second switching
cycle will not start until the inductor current
drops to 0 A. In each cycle, the internal
MOSFET is turned on, and the current-sense
circuit senses the current IP(t) internally.
The internal MOSFET turns off when IP(t) rises
to IPK (see Figure 3). The output current is
calculated with Equation (5):

the current rises linearly in flyback mode:

MP6004—PRIMARY-SIDE REGULATED FLYBACK/BUCK 80V DCDC CONVERTER
Light-Load Control
In flyback mode (if the load decreases),
MP6004 stretches down the frequency
automatically to reduce the power transferring
while keeping the same IPK in each cycle. An
approximate 10 kHz minimum frequency is
applied to detect the output voltage even at a
very light load. During this condition, the
switching IPK jumps between 20 percent of the
normal IPK and 100 percent of the normal IPK to
reduce the power transferring. The MP6004 still
transfers some energy to the output even if
there is no load on the output due to the 10 kHz
minimum frequency. This means that some
load is required to maintain the output voltage,
or else VOUT will rise and trigger an OVP.
In buck mode, the MP6004 has no minimum
frequency limit, so it stretches down to a very
low frequency and regulates the output
automatically even there is no load on the
output.
Frequency Control
By monitoring the auxiliary winding voltage in
flyback mode or monitoring the SW voltage in
buck mode, the MP6004 detects and regulates
the inductor current in DCM. The frequency is
controlled by the peak current, the current ramp
slew rate, and the load current. The maximum
frequency occurs when the MP6004 runs in
critical conduction mode, providing the
maximum load power. The MP6004 switching
frequency should be lower than 200 kHz in the
design.
Voltage Control
In flyback application, the MP6004 detects the
auxiliary winding voltage from FB1 during the
secondary-side diode conduction period.
Assume the secondary winding is the master,
and the auxiliary winding is the slave. When the
secondary-side diode conducts, the FB1
voltage is calculated with Equation (6):
VFB1 =
NA
R2
× (VOUT + VD1F ) ×
NS
R1 + R2
Where:
VD1F is the output diode forward-drop voltage.
(6)
NA and NS are the turns of the auxiliary winding
and the secondary-side winding, respectively.
R1 and R2 are the resistor dividers for sampling.
The output voltage differs from the secondarywinding voltage due to the current-dependant
diode forward voltage drop. If the secondarywinding voltage is always detected at a fixed
secondary current, the difference between the
output voltage and the secondary-winding
voltage is a fixed VD1F. MP6004 starts sampling
the auxiliary-winding voltage after the internal
power MOSFET turns off for 0.7 μs and finishes
the sampling after the secondary-side diode
conducts for 3 μs. This provides good
regulation when the load changes. However,
the secondary diode conducting period must be
longer than 3 μs in each cycle, and the FB1
signal must be smooth 0.7 μs after the switch
turns off.
With a buck solution, there is one FB2 pin
referenced to VIN. It can be used as the
reference voltage for the buck application. The
output voltage is referenced to VIN and does
not have the same GND as the input power.
Programming the Current Limit
The MP6004 current limit is set by an external
resistor (R3) from ILIM to ground. The value of
R3 can be estimated with Equation (7):
ILIM =
100 VL × 0.18
+
R3
L
(7)
Where ILIM is the current limit in A, VL is the
voltage applied on the inductor when the
MOSFET turns on, R3 is the setting resistor in
kΩ, and L is the inductor in μH.
The current limit cannot be programmed higher
than 3 A.
Leading-Edge Blanking
Transformer parasitic capacitance induces a
current spike on the sense resistor when the
power switch turns on. The MP6004 includes a
450 ns leading-edge blanking period to avoid
falsely terminating the switching pulse. During
this blanking period, the current sense
comparator is disabled, and the gate driver
cannot switch off.
VOUT is the output voltage.

MP6004—PRIMARY-SIDE REGULATED FLYBACK/BUCK 80V DCDC CONVERTER
DCM Detection
Over-Load Protection
The
MP6004
regulator
operates
in
discontinuous conduction mode in both flyback
and buck modes.
MP6004 will always work in DCM mode for any
condition.
In flyback mode, the MP6004 detects the falling
edge of the FB1 voltage in each cycle. The
second cycle switching will not start unless the
chip detects a 50 mV falling edge on FB1.
In buck mode, the MP6004 detects the falling
edge of the SW voltage in each cycle. The
second cycle switching will not start unless the
chip detects 0.14 V falling edge between
VSW-VIN.
Over-Voltage & Open-Circuit Protection
In flyback mode, the MP6004 includes overvoltage protection (OVP) and open-circuit
protection. If the voltage at FB1 exceeds 125
percent of VREF1 (or FB1’s -60 mV falling edge
cannot be detected because the feedback
resistor is removed), immediately the MP6004
shuts off the driving signal and enters hiccup
mode by re-charging the internal capacitor. The
MP6004 resumes normal operation when the
fault is removed.
In flyback mode, the secondary-side diode
conduction duty cycle is limited to about 80
percent. In an over-load condition, the output
energy is limited by IPK and FS. With a heavier
load, the output drops and the diode conduction
period becomes longer. This causes the
switching frequency to drop so that the output
energy can be limited. The MP6004 has same
protection logic for an over-load/output-short
condition.
In buck mode, the duty cycle limitation does not
apply, but the output current is limited to half of
IPK.
Thermal Shutdown
When the junction temperature exceeds 150°C,
the MP6004 shuts down. Once the temperature
drops below 130°C, the part
re-starts
automatically.
In buck mode, if the voltage at FB2 is higher
than the reference voltage, the MP6004 stops
switching immediately.

MP6004—PRIMARY-SIDE REGULATED FLYBACK/BUCK 80V DCDC CONVERTER
APPLICATION INFORMATION
EN Control Setting
MP6004 turns on when EN goes high, and it
turns off when EN goes low. EN is pulled low
internally by an approximate 0.9 MΩ resistor.
In flyback mode, the maximum on time is
limited at about 8 μs. The secondary-side
rectifier diode conduction time should be longer
than 3 μs for FB1 feedback sampling. If VIN
decreases and the inductor current cannot
ramp the IPK to setting value within the
maximum on time, the diode conduction time
decreases to less than 3 μs, causing FB1
feedback sample failure. The MP6004 treats
this failure as a VOUT drop and generates more
pulses, causing VOUT to overshoot. In this
condition, EN can be used to program VIN
UVLO and shuts down the part before VIN drops
(triggering the maximum on time). Since the EN
high-level voltage is 3.9 V and the low-level
voltage is 1.3 V, it is hard to program the VIN
UVLO with a small hysteresis. In this condition,
one resistor divider and one Zener diode is
recommended (see Figure 4).
Zener diode and resistor divider are
recommended to set the appropriate VIN UVLO.
There is an internal Zener diode on EN, which
clamps the EN voltage to prevent runaway. The
maximum pull-up current for the internal Zener
clamp (assuming 6.5 V) should be less than 0.5
mA. If EN is driven with an external signal, use
a signal voltage less than 6.5 V or connect EN
to the signal through a pull-up resistor that
ensures the maximum pull-up current is less
than 0.5 mA. If using a resistor divider (see
Figure 4) and VIN-VZENER is higher than 6.5 V,
the minimum resistance for the pull-up resistor
R5 should be calculated with Equation (10):
VIN − VZENER − 6.5V 6.5V
−
< 0.5mA
R5
R6
(10)
VCC Power Supply Setting
The VCC voltage is charged through the internal
LDO by VIN. Normally, VCC is regulated at 5.4 V,
typically. A capacitor no less than 1 µF is
recommended for decoupling between VCC and
GND.
In flyback mode, VCC can be powered from the
transformer auxiliary winding to save the highvoltage LDO power loss.
Figure 4—VIN UVLO setting with EN control
For example, the MP6004 should be turned on
before VIN rises to 36 V and shut down before
VIN drops to 20 V. One 20 V Zener diode (D4)
and a resistor divider (R5 = 100 kΩ/R6 = 49.9
kΩ) can be selected to program the VIN UVLO.
The programmed VIN rising threshold can be
calculated with Equation (8):
VIN_R < 20V +
100kΩ + 49.9kΩ
× 3.9V = 31.7V
49.9kΩ
(8)
The programmed VIN falling threshold is
calculated with Equation (9):
VIN_F > 20V +
100kΩ + 49.9kΩ
× 1.3V = 23.9V
49.9kΩ

the rectifier diode conduction time, but the

Where NA and NS are the turns of the auxiliary

MP6004—PRIMARY-SIDE REGULATED FLYBACK/BUCK 80V DCDC CONVERTER
capability is about 1.2 mA. If the auxiliary
winding power voltage is higher than 6.2 V
(especially in a heavy-load condition), a series
resistor (R8) is necessary to limit the current to
VCC. For simple application, supply the VCC
power through the internal LDO directly.
Output Voltage Setting
Generally, select R2 with a 10 kΩ to 50 kΩ
resistor to limit noise and provide an
appropriate R1 for the -0.5 mA negative current
limit.
In buck application, the feedback pin is FB2.
The output voltage can be estimated with
Equation (13):
In MP6004, there are two feedback pins for
different application modes.
In flyback mode, the converter detects the
auxiliary winding voltage from FB1. R1 and R2
are the resistor dividers for the feedback
sampling (see Figure 6).

Where,
NS is the transformer secondary-side winding

NA is the transformer auxiliary winding turns.
VD1F is the rectifier diode forward drop.
VREF1 is the reference voltage of FB1 (1.99 V,
typically).
When the primary-side power MOSFET turns
on, the auxiliary winding forces a negative
voltage to FB1. The FB1 voltage is clamped to
less than -0.7 V internally, but the clamp current
should be limited to less than -0.5 mA by R1.
For example, if the auxiliary winding forces
-11 V to R1 (to make the current flowing from
FB1 to R1 lower than -0.5 mA), R1 resistance
must be higher than 22 kΩ (if ignoring R2
current).

Maximum Switching Frequency
When MP6004 works in DCM, the frequency
reaches its maximum value during a full-load
condition. The maximum frequency is affected
by the peak current limit, the inductance, and
the input/output voltage. Generally, design the
maximum frequency lower than 200 kHz.
GND

VOUT = −
In buck mode, the maximum frequency occurs
when the buck runs in critical conduction mode.
The frequency can be calculated with Equation
(14):
FSW _ MAX =
(VIN − VOUT ) × VOUT
ILIM × L × VIN
(14)
Where, ILIM is the IPK set by the current limit
resistor.
With a lighter load, the frequency is lower than
the maximum frequency above.
In flyback mode, design the maximum
frequency with the minimum input voltage and
the maximum load condition. Calculate the
frequency with Equation (15):

TCON is the rectifier diode current conducting
time and can be calculated with Equation (17):
TCON
NS × ILIM × LM
=
NP × (VOUT + VD1F )
(17)
Where, NS is the transformer secondary-side
winding turns.NP is the transformer primary-side
winding turns.
TDELAY is the resonant delay time from the
rectifier diode current drop to 0 A to the
auxiliary-winding voltage drop to 0 V. The
resonant time can be tested on the board
(estimate around 0.5 μs).
Output Capacitor Selection
The output capacitor maintains the DC output
voltage. For best results, use ceramic
capacitors or low ESR capacitors to minimize
the output voltage ripple. For ceramic
capacitors, the capacitance dominates the
impedance at the switching frequency.
In flyback application, the worst output ripple
occurs under a light-load condition; the worst
output ripple can be estimated by Equation (21):
VOUTP _ P =
0.5 × NP × ILIM × TCON
NS × C2
(21)
In flyback mode, the MP6004 samples the
feedback signal within 3 μs after the primaryside MOSFET turns off. The secondary-side
diode conduction time in Equation (17) should
be higher than 3 μs. This time period, combined
with the duty cycle, determines the maximum
frequency.
Where,
C2 is the output capacitor value.
VOUTP-P is the output ripple.
Input Capacitor Selection
An input capacitor is required to supply the AC
ripple current to the inductor while limiting noise
at the input source. A low ESR capacitor is
required to keep the noise to the IC at a
minimum. Ceramic capacitors are preferred, but
tantalum or low ESR electrolytic capacitors will
suffice. For ceramic capacitors, the capacitance
dominates the impedance at the switching
frequency. The ripple will be the worst at light
load. The required input capacitance can be
estimated with Equation (18):
0.5 × ILIM × TON
(18)
C =
In buck application, the worst Vout ripple can be
estimated with Equation (22):

VINP _ P
Where C1 is the input capacitor value, VINP-P is
the expected input ripple, and TON is the
MOSFET turn-on time.
In an isolated application, TON is calculated with
Equation (19):
I ×L
(19)
T = LIM M
ON
VIN
Normally, a 44 μF or higher ceramic capacitor is
recommended as the output capacitor. This
allows a small Vo ripple and stable operation.
VOUTP _ P =
0.5 × ILIM2 × L × (VIN + VD1F )
C2 × (VIN − VOUT ) × (VOUT + VD1F )
(22)
Leakage Inductance
The
transformer’s
leakage
inductance
decreases system efficiency and affects the
output current and voltage precision. Optimize
the transformer structure to minimize the
leakage inductance. Aim for a leakage
inductance less than 3 percent of the primarywinding inductance.
RCD Snubber for Flyback
The transformer leakage inductance causes
spikes and excessive ringing on the MOSFET
drain voltage waveform, affecting the output
voltage sampling 0.7 µs after the MOSFET
turns off. The RCD snubber circuit limits the SW
voltage spike (see Figure 7).
In a non-isolation application, TON is calculated
with Equation (20):
I ×L
(20)
T = LIM
ON
VIN − VOUT
Where L is the buck`s inductor value.

MP6004—PRIMARY-SIDE REGULATED FLYBACK/BUCK 80V DCDC CONVERTER
The power dissipation in the snubber circuit is
estimated with Equation (23):
PSN =
1
× LK × ILIM2 × FS
2
(23)
Where, LK is the leakage inductance.
Since R4 consumes the majority of the power,
R4 is estimated with Equation (24):
VD1 = VOUT +
VIN × NS
+ VPD1
NP
(27)
VPD1 can be selected at 40 percent ~100
percent of VOUT + VIN x NS/NP. An RC or RCD
snubber circuit for the output diode D1 is
recommended.
(24)
In buck mode, the diode reverse voltage
equates to the input voltage. A 20 percent ~ 40
percent margin is recommended.
Where, VSN is the expected snubber voltage on
C4.
In both applications, the current rating should
be higher than the maximum output current.
The snubber capacitor C4 can be designed to
get appropriate voltage ripple on the snubber
using Equation (25):
Dummy Load
V 2
R4 = SN
PSN
ΔVSN =
VSN
R4 × C4 × FS
(25)
Generally, a 15 percent ripple is acceptable.
Buck Inductor Selection
The inductor is required to transfer the energy
between the input source and the output
capacitors. Unlike normal application where
inductors determine the inductor ripple, the
MP6004 always works in DCM while VIN, VOUT,
and ILIM are constant. The inductor only
determines the speed of the current rising and
falling, which determines the switching period.
The expected maximum frequency can
determine the inductor value using Equation
(26):
(V − V OUT ) × (VOUT + VD1F )
1
L ≈ IN
×
(VIN + VD1F ) × IPEAK
FSW
(26)
FSW is the expected maximum switching
frequency, which should be lower than 200 kHz
in general setting.
Output Diode Selection
The output rectifier diode supplies current to the
output capacitor when the internal MOSFET is
off. Use a Schottky diode to reduce loss due to
the diode forward voltage and recovery time.
In isolation application, the diode should be
rated for a reverse voltage greater than
Equation (27):
MP6004 Rev. 1.0
4/14/2015
When the system operates without a load in
flyback mode, the output voltage rises above
the normal operation voltage because of the
minimum switching frequency limitation. Use a
dummy load for good load regulation. A large
dummy load decreases efficiency, so the
dummy load is a tradeoff between efficiency
and load regulation. For applications using
Figure 10, a minimum load of around 10 mA is
recommended.
PCB Layout Guidelines
Efficient PCB layout for high-frequency
switching power supplies is critical. Poor layout
may result in reduced performance, excessive
EMI, resistive loss, and system instability. For
best results, refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 and
follow the guidelines below:
For flyback application:
1. Keep the input loop as short as possible
between the input capacitor, transformer,
SW, and GND plane for minimal noise and
ringing.
2. Keep the output loop between the rectifier
diode, the output capacitor, and the
transformer as short as possible.
3. Keep the clamp loop circuit between D2, C4,
and the transformer as small as possible.
4. Place the VCC capacitor close to VCC for
the best decoupling. The current setting
resistor R3 should be placed as close to
ILIM and AGND as possible.
5. Keep the feedback trace far away from
noise sources (such as SW). The trace
connecting FB1 should be short.
