® RT8481 SPS Secondary-Side CC/CV Controller General Description Features The RT8481 is a secondary-side CC/CV controller for SPS applications. It integrates a Constant Current (CC) regulating amplifier, a Constant Voltage (CV) regulating amplifier, and 2 precision reference voltages.  Secondary-Side Constant Voltage (CV) and Constant Current (CC) Control  4.75V to 50V Operation Voltage Range ±1% Output Voltage Accuracy at Full Temperature Range 0.6mA Quiescent Current Smooth Transition Between CC and CV Control Loops −5V Negative Voltage Tolerance at CP pin RoHS Compliant and Halogen Free The CC regulating amplifier is featured with an extended input common mode voltage below GND level to insure the performance of low-side current sense, and a very low input offset voltage to guarantee the sensing accuracy. A 30mV reference voltage is internally connected between the inverting input of the CC regulating amplifier and the CP pin. The non-inverting input is the CN pin, at which the voltage will be regulated 30mV higher than that at the CP pin. The inverting input pin CP is equiped with −5V antireverse immunity.      Applications    The CV regulating amplifier with low input offset voltage is biased with a 2.5V reference voltage at the inverting input. The non-inverting input is the FB pin, at which the voltage will be regulated with 2.5V from GND. The CC and CV amplifiers share an open-collector output pin to minimize application circuit.

An internal 2.5V reference voltage is generated from VCC input power. The RT8481 can be used to monitor the transformer secondary-side output voltage by the CV control loop and regulate the output current by the CC control loop at the same time. The transformer secondary-side output voltage can be monitored by the FB pin voltage. The sensed FB pin voltage is compared with the 2.5V internal reference. When the FB pin voltage is higher than 2.5V, the OUT pin will sink more current at the external opto-coupler and instruct the controller at primary-side to adjust the output voltage. The output current can be regulated by the voltage across the CN and CP pins through the current sense resistor connected between the CN and CP pins. The voltage difference between CN and CP pins is compared with the 30mV internal reference. When the voltage difference between CN and CP pins is greater than 30mV, the OUT pin will sink more current at the external opto-coupler and instruct the controller at primary-side to adjust the output current.

An optocoupler which is directly connected to the output and an external resistor bridge is connected between the output positive line and the ground reference. The middle point is to be connected to the FB pin of RT8481, where R2 is the upper resistor and R1 the lower resistor of the bridge. The relationship between R2 and R1 is shown below : VOUT = VFB  R1 = R2  R1 + R2  R2 V  OUT  VFB  VFB where VOUT is the desired maximum output voltage and VFB is the feedback voltage (2.5V typ). When under constant voltage control mode, the output voltage is fixed due to the R1/R2 resistor bridge. To avoid discharge of the load, the resistor bridge R1, R2, should be highly resistive. For this type of application a total value of 100kΩ (or more) would be appropriate for the resistors R1 and R2. As an example, with R1 = 80kΩ and R2 = 20kΩ, VOUT = 12.5V Output Current Setting The current control loop is controlled via the second transconductance operational amplifier. An optocoupler and the sense resistor, Rs, is placed in series on the output negative line. VCN−CP threshold is achieved externally by a resistor bridge tied to the Vref voltage reference. Its middle point is tied to the positive input of the current control operational amplifier and its foot is to be connected to the lower potential point of the sense resistor. The resistors of the bridge are matched to provide the best precision. With VCN−CP and Rs, the expected output current IOUT can be obtained as below equation. IOUT = VCN-CP RS As an example, with RS = 100mΩ VCN−CP = 30mV, IOUT = 300mA where IOUT is the desired maximum output current, and Copyright © 2014 Richtek Technology Corporation. All rights reserved. www.richtek.com 8 VCN−CP the threshold voltage for the current control loop. Note that RSENSE resistor should be chosen taking into account its maximum power dissipation (PLIM) during full load operation. Compensation Both the voltage control trans-conductance amplifier and the current control trans-conductance amplifier can be fully compensated. The output and negative inputs are directly accessible for external compensation components, as shown in the Typical Application Circuit. The typical component values for the compensation network of voltage control loop is CVC1 = 2.2nF and RVC1 = 22kΩ. The typical component values for the compensation network of current control loop is CIC1 = 2.2nF, RIC1 = 22kΩ and RIC2 = 1kΩ. However, in many application conditions, the current control loop can be stable even without compensation network (RIC2 = 0, no CIC1 nor RIC1). When the voltage control loop is used as the voltage limit protection or the current control loop is used as the current limit protection, no compensation network is needed for the protecting control loop. A resistor, ROPT, must be connected in series with the opto-coupler since it is part of the compensation network. Although the value of ROPT is not critical, it's recommended to be in the range from 0.33kΩ to (VOUT − 2) / (0.005) Ω. Thermal Considerations For continuous operation, do not exceed absolute maximum junction temperature. The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of the IC package, PCB layout, rate of surrounding airflow, and difference between junction and ambient temperature. The maximum power dissipation can be calculated by the following formula : PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) − TA) / θJA where TJ(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature, TA is the ambient temperature, and θJA is the junction to ambient thermal resistance. is a registered trademark of Richtek Technology Corporation. DS8481-01 July 2014 RT8481 For recommended operating condition specifications, the maximum junction temperature is 125°C. The junction to ambient thermal resistance, θJA, is layout dependent. For SOT-23-6 packages, the thermal resistance, θJA, is 243.3°C/W on a standard JEDEC 51-7 four-layer thermal test board. The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25°C can be calculated by the following formula : Layout Consideration For the best performance of the RT8481, the following PCB Layout guidelines must be strictly followed.  Place the RSENSE resistor as close to IC as possible.  Keep the input/output traces as wide and short as possible. PD(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / (243.3°C/W) = 0.41W for SOT-23-6 package VOUT Optocoupler The maximum power dissipation depends on the operating ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal resistance, θJA. The derating curve in Figure 1 allows the designer to see the effect of rising ambient temperature on the maximum power dissipation.
