Operational Description
All of the parameter values used in these descriptions
are typical values, unless they are specified as minimum
or maximum. Current polarities are defined as follows:
current going into the IC (sinking) is positive current
(+); and current coming out of the IC (sourcing) is
negative current (−). Q(H) and Q(L) indicate a high-side
power MOSFET and a low-side power MOSFET
respectively. Ci and CV indicate a current resonant
capacitor and a voltage resonant capacitor, respectively.
8.1
Resonant Circuit Operation
Figure 8-1 shows a basic RLC series resonant circuit.
The impedance of the circuit, Ż, is as the following
Equation.
Ż = R + j (ωL −
1
),
ωC
(1)
where ω is angular frequency; and ω = 2πf.
Thus,
Ż = R + j (2πfL −
1
).
2πfC
(2)
When the frequency, f, changes, the impedance of
resonant circuit will change as shown in Figure 8-2.

Figure 8-3 shows the circuit of a current resonant
power supply. The basic configuration of the current
resonant power supply is a half-bridge converter. The
switching devices, Q(H) and Q(L), are connected in series
with VIN. The series resonant circuit and the voltage
resonant capacitor, CV, are connected in parallel with
Q(L). The series resonant circuit is consisted of the
following components: the resonant inductor, LR; the
primary winding, P, of a transformer, T1; and the current
resonant capacitor, Ci. The coupling between the
primary and secondary windings of T1 is designed to be
poor so that the leakage inductance increases. This
leakage inductance is used for LR. This results in a down
sized of the series resonant circuit. The dotted mark with
T1 describes the winding polarity, the secondary
windings, S1 and S2, are connected so that the polarities
are set to the same position as shown in Figure 8-3. In
addition, the winding numbers of each other should be
equal. From Equation (1), the impedance of a current
resonant power supply is calculated by Equation (5).
From Equation (4), the resonant frequency, f0 , is
calculated by Equation (6).

SSC3S927L
In the current resonant power supply, Q(H) and Q(L) are
alternatively turned on and off. The on and off times of
them are equal. There is a dead time between the on
periods of Q(H) and Q(L). During the dead time, Q(H) and
Q(L) are in off status.
In the current resonant power supply, the frequency is
controlled. When the output voltage decreases, the IC
decreases the switching frequency so that the output
power is increased to keep a constant output voltage.
This must be controlled in the inductance area (fSW <
f0 ). Since the winding current is delayed from the
winding voltage in the inductance area, the turn-on
operates in a ZCS (Zero Current Switching); and the
turn-off operates in a ZVS (Zero Voltage Switching).
Thus, the switching losses of Q(H) and Q(L) are nearly
zero. In the capacitance area (fSW < f0 ), the current
resonant power supply operates as follows: When the
output voltage decreases, the switching frequency is
decreased; and then, the output power is more decreased.
Therefore, the output voltage cannot be kept constant.
Since the winding current goes ahead of the winding
voltage in the capacitance area, Q(H) and Q(L) operate in
the hard switching. This results in the increases of a
power loss. This operation in the capacitance area is
called the capacitive mode operation. The current
resonant power supply must be operated without the
capacitive mode operation (for more details, see Section
8.11).
Figure 8-4 describes the basic operation waveform of
current resonant power supply (see Figure 8-3 about the
symbol in Figure 8-4). For the description of current
resonant waveforms in normal operation, the operation
is separated into a period A to F. In the following

When Q(H) is on, an energy is stored into the series

resonant circuit and the transformer (see Figure 8-5).
At the same time, the energy is transferred to the
secondary circuit. When the primary winding voltage

3) Period C
C is the dead-time period. Q(H) and Q(L) are in off
status. When Q(H) turns off, CV is discharged by IL that
is supplied by the energy stored in the series resonant
circuit applies (see Figure 8-7). When VCV decreases
to VF(L), −ID(L) flows through the body diode of Q(L);
and VCV is clamped to VF(L). After that, Q(L) turns on.
Since VDS(L) is nearly zero at the point, Q(L) operates
in the ZVS and the ZCS; thus, the switching loss
achieves nearly zero.
4) Period D
Immidiately after Q(L) turns on, −ID(L), which was
flowing in Period C, continues to flow through Q(L)
for a while. Then, ID(L) flows as shown in Figure 8-8;
and VCi is applied the primary winding voltage of the
transformer. At the same time, energy is transferred to
the secondary circuit. When the primary winding
voltage can not keep the on status of the secondary
rectifier, the energy transmittion to the secondary
circuit is stopped.

F is the dead-time period. Q(H) and Q(L) are in off
status.
When Q(L) turns off, CV is charged by −IL that is
supplied by the energy stored in the series resonant
circuit applies (see Figure 8-10). When VCV decreases
to VIN + VF(H), −ID(H) flows through body diode of
Q(H); and VCV is clamped to VIN + VF(H). After that,
Q(H) turns on. Since VDS(H) is nearly zero at the point,
Q(H) operates in the ZVS and the ZCS; thus, the
switching loss achieves nearly zero.
7) After the period F
Immidiately after Q(H) turns on, −ID(H), which was
flowing in Period F, continues to flow through Q(H)
for a while. Then, ID(H) flows again; and the operation
returns to the period A. The above operation is
repeated to transfer energy to the secondary side from
the resonant circuit.

Startup Operation

The waveform at startup is shown in Figure 8-12.
When a mains input voltage is provided, and then the
VSEN pin voltage increases to the on-threshold voltage,
VSEN(ON) = 1.200 V, or more, C2 connected to the VCC
pin is charged by the constant startup current, IST of 6.0
mA. When the VCC pin voltage increases to the
operation start voltage, VCC(ON) = 17.0 V, the control
circuit of the IC is activated. After that, when the VSEN
pin voltage reaches to VSEN(ON) = 1.200 V at the first-up
edge of half-sinewave, REG pin voltage is output. Then,
the capacitor C9 connected to FB pin starts to be
charged. When the FB pin voltage increases to the
oscillation start threshold voltage, VFB(ON) = 0.30 V, or
more, the switching operation starts.
Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
Figure 8-13 shows the relationship of VCC and ICC.
After the IC starts operation, when the VCC pin
voltage decreases to VCC(OFF) = 8.9 V, the IC stops
switching operation by the Undervoltage Lockout
(UVLO) Function and reverts to the state before startup
again.

The Startup Operational Waveforms
When the conditions of Section 8.2 are fulfilled, the
IC starts operation. Thus, the circuit current, I CC,
increases, and the VCC pin voltage begins dropping. At
the same time, the auxiliary winding voltage, VD,
increases in proportion to the output voltage rise. Thus,
the VCC pin voltage is set by the balance between
dropping due to the increase of ICC and rising due to the
increase of the auxiliary winding voltage, VD.
When the VCC pin voltage decreases to
VCC(OFF) = 8.9 V, the IC stops switching operation and a
startup failure occurs.
In order to prevent this, when the VCC pin voltage
decreases to the startup current threshold biasing voltage,
VCC(BIAS) = 9.8 V, the Bias Assist Function is activated.

While the Bias Assist Function is activated, any
decrease of the VCC pin voltage is counteracted by
providing the startup current, IST, from the startup
circuit.
It is necessary to check the startup process based on
actual operation in the application, and adjust the VCC
pin voltage, so that the startup failure does not occur.
If VCC pin voltage decreases to VCC(BIAS) and the Bias
Assist Function is activated, the power loss increases.
Thus, VCC pin voltage in operation should be set
more than VCC(BIAS) by the following adjustments.
● The turns ratio of the auxiliary winding to the
secondary-side winding is increased.
● The value of C2 in Figure 5-1 is increased and/or the
value of R1 is reduced.
During all protection operation, the Bias Assist

The minimum switching frequency is adjustable by
the value of R5 (RCSS) connected to the CSS pin. The
relationship of R5 (RCSS) and the externally adjusted
minimum frequency, f(MIN)ADJ, is shown in Figure 8-16.
The f(MIN)ADJ should be adjusted to more than the
resonant frequency, fO, under the condition of the
minimum mains input voltage and the maximum output
power. The maximum switching frequency, f MAX, is
determined by the inductance and the capacitance of the
resonant circuit. The fMAX should be adjusted to less than

the FB pin voltage decreases to the oscillation stop

The IC has the Standby Function in order to increase
circuit efficiency in light load. When the Standby
Function is activated, the IC operates in the burst
oscillation mode as shown in Figure 8-19.
The burst oscillation has periodic non-switching
intervals. Thus, the burst oscillation mode reduces
switching losses. Generally, to improve efficiency under
light load conditions, the frequency of the burst
oscillation mode becomes just a few kilohertz. In
addition, the IC has the Soft-on and the Soft-off
Function in order to suppress rapid and sharp fluctuation
of the drain current during the burst oscillation mode.

Figure 8-20 shows the standby mode change circuit
with external signal. Figure 8-21 shows the standby
change operation waveforms. When the standby
terminal of Figure 8-20 is provided with the L signal, Q1
turns off, C10 connected to the MODE pin is discharged
by the sink current, IMODE(SNK) = 10 µA, and then the
MODE pin voltage decreases. When the MODE pin
voltage decrease to the MODE Pin Standby Threshold
Voltage, VMODE(STB) = 1.5 V, the operation of the IC is
changed to the standby mode. In the standby mode, the
IC stops a switching operation while the following
conditions are fulfilled: MODE pin voltage ≤ VMODE(STB)
of 1.5 V, FB pin voltage ≤ VFB(OFF) of 0.20 V, and SB
pin voltage ≤ VSB(OFF) of 0.5 V.
When the standby terminal is provided with the H

the IC returns to normal operation.

In standby operation, the IC operates burst oscillation
where the peak drain current is suppressed by Soft-On

Burst Oscillation Operation Waveforms
When the SB pin voltage decreases to VSB(OFF) = 0.5 V
or less and the FB pin voltage decreases to
VFB(OFF) = 0.20 V or less, the IC stops switching
operation, and then the output voltage decreases. Since
the output voltage decreases, the FB pin voltage
increases. When the FB pin voltage increases to the
oscillation start threshold voltage, VFB(ON) = 0.30 V, CSB
connected to the SB pin is charged by ISB(SRC) = −10 µA,
and the SB pin voltage gradually increases. When the
SB pin voltage increases to the oscillation start threshold
voltage, VSB(ON) = 0.6 V, the IC resumes switching
operation, controlling the frequency control by the SB
pin voltage. Thus, the output voltage increases (Soft-on).
After that, when FB pin voltage decrease to oscillation
stop threshold voltage, VFB(OFF) = 0.20 V, CSB is
discharged by ISB(SNK) = 10 µA and SB pin voltage
decreases. When the SB pin voltage decreases to
VSB(OFF) again, the IC stops switching operation. Thus,
the output voltage decreases (Soft-off).
The SB pin discharge time in the Soft-on and Soft-off
Function depends on the value of CSB. When the value
of CSB increases, the Soft-On/Soft-off Function makes
the peak drain current suppressed, and makes the burst
period longer. Thus, the output ripple voltage may
increase and/or the VCC pin voltage may decrease. If

The dead time is the period when both the high-side
and the low-side power MOSFETs are off.
As shown in Figure 8-23, if the dead time is shorter
than the voltage resonant period, the power MOSFET is
turned on and off during the voltage resonant operation.
In this case, the power MOSFET turned on/off in hard

ZVS Failure Operation Waveform
The Automatic Dead Time Adjustment Function is
the function that the ZVS (Zero Voltage Switching)
operation of Q(H) and Q(L) is controlled automatically by
the voltage resonant period detection of IC. The voltage
resonant period is varied by the power supply
specifications (input voltage and output power, etc.).
However, the power supply with this function is
unnecessary to adjust the dead time for each power
supply specification.
As shown in Figure 8-24, the VS pin detects the dv/dt
period of rising and falling of the voltage between drain
and source of the low-side power MOSFET, VDS(L), and
the IC sets its dead time to that period. This function
controls so that the high-side and the low-side power
MOSFETs are automatically switched to Zero Voltage
Switching (ZVS) operation. This function operates in the
period from td(MIN) = 0.24 µs to td(MAX) = 1.65 µs.
In minimum output power at maximum input voltage
and maximum output power at minimum input voltage,
the ZCS (Zero Current Switching) operation of IC (the
drain current flows through the body diode is about 600
ns as shown in Figure 8-25), should be checked based on
actual operation in the application.

area, the power supply becomes the capacitive mode
operation (see Section 8.1). In order to prevent the
operation, the minimum oscillation frequency is needed
to be set higher than f0 on each power supply
specification. However, the IC has the capacitive mode
operation Detection Function kept the frequency higher
than f0. Thus, the minimum oscillation frequency setting
is unnecessary and the power supply design is easier. In
addition, the ability of transformer is improved because
the operating frequency can operate close to the resonant
frequency, f0.
The resonant current is detected by the RC pin, and
the IC prevents the capacitive mode operation. When the
capacitive mode is detected, the C7 connected to CL pin
is charged by ICL(SRC)1 = −17 μA. When the CL pin
voltage increases to VCL(OLP), the OLP is activated and
the switching operation stops. During the OLP operation,
the intermittent operation by UVLO is repeated (see
Section 8.18). The detection voltage is changed to
VRC1 = ±0.10 V or VRC2 = ±0.30 V depending on the load
as shown in Figure 8-28 and Figure 8-29. The

cross the plus side detection voltage in the downward
direction during the on period of Q(H) as shown in
Figure 8-27. On the contrary, in the capacitance area,
the RC pin voltage crosses the plus side detection
voltage in the downward direction. At this point, the
capacitive mode operation is detected. Thus, Q(H) is
turned off, and Q(L) is turned on, as shown in Figure
8-28 and Figure 8-29.
● Period in Which the Q(L) is On
Contrary to the above of Q(H), in the capacitance area,
the RC pin voltage crosses the minus side detection
voltage in the upward directiont during the on period
of Q(L) At this point, the capacitive mode operation is
detected. Thus, Q(L) is turned off and Q(H) is turned on.
As above, since the capacitive mode operation is
detected by pulse-by-pulse and the operating frequency
is synchronized with the frequency of the capacitive
mode operation, and the capacitive mode operation is
prevented. In addition to the adjusting method of ROCP,
C3, and R6 in Section 8.17, ROCP, C3, and R6 should be
adjusted so that the absolute value of the RC pin voltage
increases to more than |VRC2| = 0.30 V under the
condition caused the capacitive mode operation easily,
such as startup, turning off the mains input voltage, or
output shorted. The RC pin voltage must be within the

8.12 X-Capacitor Discharge Function
Generally, the line filter is set in the input circuit part
of power supply as shown in Figure 8-30.
The voltage across the X-capacitor, CX, must be
decreased to 37 % of the peak voltage of AC input in
one second to meet safety requirements such as
IEC60950. Thus, the discharge resistor, RDIS, is
connected in parallel with CX. While the AC input
voltage is applied, RDIS consumes power at all time. The
dissipation power of RDIS, PRDIS, is calculated as follows:

In order to remove RST and improve the circuit
efficiency, the IC has the X-capacitor Discharge
Function. As shown in Figure 8-31, DST1, DST2 and RST
are connected to the ST pin from AC input line.
When AC voltage is input and VSEN pin voltage
reaches to VSEN(ON) = 1.200 V at startup, the IC starts.
Then, following half-sinewaves are detected by two
threshold voltages of the VSEN pin, VSEN(OFF)1 = 1.000
V or VSEN(AC)1 = 2.70 V (see Figure 8-32). Thus the IC’s
X-Capacitor Discharge Function achieves the wide
range detection for universal specification.
When AC input voltage is cut off, the VSEN pin
voltage becomes practically constant and the VSEN pin
cannot detect the both threshold, VSEN(OFF)1 and VSEN(AC)1.
Then, the CD pin capacitor, CCD, is discharged by
ICD(SRC) = –10.2 μA, and the CD pin voltage increases.
When the CD pin voltage reaches to VCD1 = 3.0 V, the
X-capacitor is discharged by the constant current,
IST = 6.0 mA.
When the VSEN pin voltage becomes VSEN(OFF)1 or
VSEN(AC)1, each internal threshold voltage becomes
VSEN(OFF)2 = 0.8 V or VSEN(AC)2 = 2.4 V automatically.
Thus, the input voltage can be detected stably.

The time until the CD pin voltage reaches to VCD1
from the cutoff of AC input voltage is delay time, t DLY.
The maximum value of tDLY, tDLY_MAX, can be set by
the capacitor of CD pin and is calculated by Equation (9)
in Section 8.16.2.
The recommend value of RST is 5.6 kΩ to 10 kΩ.
RST is applied high voltage and are high resistance, the
following should be considered according to the
requirement of the application:
● Select a resistor designed against electromigration, or
● Use a combination of resistors in series for that to
reduce each applied voltage
8.13 Reset Detection Function
In the startup period, the feedback control for the
output voltage is inactive. If a magnetizing current may
not be reset in the on-period because of unbalanced
operation, a negative current may flow just before a
power MOSFET turns off. This causes a hard switching
operation, increases the stresses of the power MOSFET.
Where the magnetizing current means the circulating
current applied for resonant operation, and flows only
into the primary-side circuit. To prevent the hard
switching, the IC has the reset detection function.
Figure 8-34 shows the high-side operation and the
reference drain current waveforms in a normal resonant
operation and a reset failure operation. To prevent the
hard switching operation, the reset detection function
operates such as an on period is extended until the
absolute value of a RC pin voltage, |VRC1|, increases to
0.10 V or more. When the on period reaches the
maximum reset time, tRST(MAX) = 5 μs, the on-period
expires at that moment, i.e., the power MOSFET turns
off (see Figure 8-33).

8.14 Overvoltage Protection (OVP)
When the voltage between the VCC pin and the GND
pin is applied to the OVP threshold voltage,
VCC(OVP) = 32.0 V, or more, the Overvoltage Protection
(OVP) is activated, and the IC stops switching operation
in protection mode. When the OVP activates, the Bias
Assist Function is disabled and VCC pin voltage
decreases. Then the VCC pin voltage decreases to
VCC(P.OFF) = 8.9 V, the Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
Function is activated, and the IC reverts to the state
before startup again.
After that, the startup circuit activates, and the VCC
pin voltage increases to VCC(ON) = 17.0 V, and the IC
starts operation. During the protection mode, restart and
stop are repeated. When the fault condition is removed,
the IC returns to normal operation automatically. When
the auxiliary winding supplies the VCC pin voltage, the
OVP is able to detect an excessive output voltage, such
as when the detection circuit for output control is open
in the secondary-side circuit because the VCC pin
voltage is proportional to the output voltage.
The output voltage of the secondary-side circuit at
OVP operation, VOUT(OVP), is approximately given as
below:
VOUT(OVP) =
VOUT(NORMAL)
× 32(V)
VCC(NORMAL)
pin voltage reaches to VCL(OLP) = 4.2 V, the IC stops
switching operation and restarts after decreasing to
VCC(OFF).
In this way, the intermittent operation by the CL pin
protection and the UVLO is repeated.
When the fault condition is removed, the IC returns to
normal operation automatically.

8.15 REG Overvoltage Protection
(REG_OVP)
The IC has REG Overvoltage Protection (REG_OVP)
for the overvoltage of the REG pin.
When the REG pin voltage increases to REG Pin
OVP Threshold Voltage, VREG(OVP) = 12.4 V, the
REG_OVP is activated, and the IC stops switching
operation and fixes the REG pin voltage to ground level.
When the REG_OVP activates, the Bias Assist
Function is disabled and VCC pin voltage decreases.
Then the VCC pin voltage decreases to VCC(P.OFF) = 8.9
V, the Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) Function is
activated, and the IC reverts to the state before startup
again.
After that, the startup circuit activates, and the VCC
pin voltage increases. When the VCC pin voltage
reaches to VCC(ON) = 17.0 V, the IC starts operation and
the VCC pin voltage decreases. When the VCC pin
voltage decreases to VCC(BIAS), FB pin voltage increases
and switching operation starts.
When the switching operation starts at RC pin voltage
within VRC1 = ±0.10 V, C7 connected to CL pin is
rapidly charged by ICL(SRC)2 = −135 μA. When the CL
This function has the following:
▫ Input Overvoltage Protection (HVP)
▫ Input Undervoltage Protection (UVP)
This function turns on and off switching operation
according to the VSEN pin voltage detecting the AC
input voltage, and thus prevents excessive input current
and over heating. Section 8.16.1 shows HVP, Section
8.16.2 shows UVP. Figure 8-36 shows the pherepheral
circuit of VSEN pin. Figure 8-37 shows Input Voltage
Detection Function operational waveforms.
8.16.1 Input Overvoltage Protection (HVP)
When the AC input voltage increases from steady
state and the VSEN pin voltage reaches VSEN(HVP) = 5.6
V or more, Input Overvoltage Protection (HVP)
activates and the IC stops switching operation. During
the HVP operation, the intermittent operation by UVLO
is repeated (see Section 8.14). After that, when the AC
input voltage decreases and the VSEN pin voltage falls
to VSEN(HVP) or less, the IC starts switching operation.

Even if the IC is in the operating state that the VCC
pin voltage is VCC(OFF) or more, when the AC input
voltage decreases from steady-state and the VSEN pin
voltage falls to VSEN(OFF)1 = 1.000 V or less for the delay
time, tDLY, the IC stops switching operation.
When the AC input voltage increases and the VSEN
pin voltage reaches VSEN(ON) = 1.200 V or more in the
operating state that the VCC pin voltage is VCC(OFF) or
more, the IC starts switching operation.

by Equation (9).

8.17 Overcurrent Protection (OCP)
The Overcurrent Protection (OCP) detects the drain
current, ID, on pulse-by-pulse basis, and limits output
power. In Figure 8-38, this circuit enables the value of
C3 for shunt capacitor to be smaller than the value of Ci
for current resonant capacitor, and the detection current
through C3 is small. Thus, the loss of the detection
resistor, ROCP, is reduced, and ROCP is a small-sized one
available.
There is no convenient method to calculate the
accurate resonant current value according to the mains
input and output conditions, and others. Thus, ROCP, C3,
and C6 should be adjusted based on actual operation in
the application. The following is a reference adjusting
method of ROCP, C3, R6, and C8:
● C3 and ROCP
C3 is 100pF to 330pF (around 1 % of Ci value).
ROCP is around 100 Ω.
Given the current of the high side power MOSFET at
ON state as ID(H). ROCP is calculated Equation (11).
The detection voltage of ROCP is used the detection of
the capacitive mode operation (see Section 8.11).
Therefore, setting of ROCP and C3 should be taken
account of both OCP and the capacitive mode
operation.

V, C6 connected to the CSS pin is discharged by
ICSS(L) = 1.8 mA. Thus, the switching frequency increases,
and the output power is limited. During discharging C6,
when the absolute value of the RC pin voltage decreases
to |VRC(L)| or less, the discharge stops.
Step II, RC Pin Threshold Voltage (High-speed),
VRC(S):
This step is active second. When the absolute value of
the RC pin voltage increases to more than |VRC(S) | = 2.80
V, the high-speed OCP is activated, and power
MOSFETs reverse on and off. At the same time, C6 is
discharged by ICSS(S) = 20.5 mA. Thus, the switching
frequency quickly increases, and the output power is
quickly limited. This step operates as protections for
exceeding overcurrent, such as the output shorted.
When the absolute value of the RC pin voltage
decreases to |VRC(S)| or less, the operation is changed to
the above Step I.
8.18 Overload Protection (OLP)
Figure 8-39 shows the Overload Protection (OLP)
waveforms.
When the absolute value of RC pin voltage increases
to |VRC(L)| = 1.90 V by increasing of output power, the
Overcurrent Protection (OCP) is activated. After that,
the C7 connected to CL pin is charged by I CL(SRC)1 = −17
μA. When the OCP state continues and CL pin voltage
increases to VCL(OLP), the OLP is activated.
When CL pin voltage becomes the threshold voltage
of OLP, VCL(OLP) = 4.2 V, the OLP is activated and the
switching operation stops. During the OLP operation,
the intermittent operation by UVLO is repeated (see
Section 8.14). When the fault condition is removed, the
IC returns to normal operation automatically.

When the junction temperature of the IC reach to the
Thermal Shutdown Temperature TJ(TSD) = 140 °C (min.),
Thermal Shutdown (TSD) is activated and the IC stops
switching operation. When the VCC pin voltage is
decreased to VCC(P.OFF) = 8.9 V or less and the junction
temperature of the IC is decreased to less than TJ(TSD),
the IC restarts.
During the protection mode, restart and stop are
repeated. When the fault condition is removed, the IC
returns to normal operation automatically.
The VGH and VGL pins are gate drive outputs for
external power MOSFETs. These peak source and sink
currents are –540 mA and 1.50 A, respectively.
To make a turn-off speed faster, connect the diode, DS,
as shown in Figure 9-1. When RA and DS is adjusted, the
following contents should be taken into account: the
power losses of power MOSFETs, gate waveforms (for
a ringing reduction caused by a pattern layout, etc.), and
EMI noises. To prevent the malfunctions caused by
steep dv/dt at turn-off of power MOSFETs, connect RGS
of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ between the Gate and Source pins of
the power MOSFET with a minimal length of PCB
traces. When these gate resistances are adjusted, the gate
waveforms should be checked that the dead time is
ensured as shown in Figure 9-2.

be as wide and short as possible so that radiated EMI
levels can be reduced.

The traces of the rectifier smoothing loops carry the

may cause varying electric potential of the control
ground; and this may result in the malfunctions of the
