Off-Line PWM Controllers with Integrated Power MOSFET
STR-A6000MZ/HZ Series
Data Sheet
Description
Package
The STR-A6000MZ/HZ series are power ICs for
switching power supplies, incorporating a power
MOSFET and a current mode PWM controller IC.
The low standby power is accomplished by the
automatic switching between the PWM operation in
normal operation and the burst-oscillation under light
load conditions. The product achieves high costperformance power supply systems with few external
components.

Typical Application
• The following drawings show circuits enabled and disabled the Brown-In/Brown-Out Function.
• The PCB traces the D/ST pins should be as wide as possible, in order to enhance thermal dissipation.
• In applications having a power supply specified such that the D/ST pin has large transient surge voltages, a clamp
snubber circuit of a capacitor-resistor-diode (CRD) combination should be added on the primary winding P, or a
damper snubber circuit of a capacitor (C) or a resistor-capacitor (RC) combination should be added between the
D/ST pin and the S/OCP pin.

Operational Description
9.1.2 With Brown-In / Brown-Out Function
• All of the parameter values used in these descriptions are
typical values, unless they are specified as minimum or
maximum.
• With regard to current direction, "+" indicates sink
current (toward the IC) and "–" indicates source current
(from the IC).
9.1
When BR pin voltage is more than VBR(DIS) = 0.6 V and
less than VBR(IN) = 5.60 V, the Bias Assist Function (refer
to Section 9.3) is disabled. Thus, VCC pin voltage repeats
increasing to VCC(ON) and decreasing to VCC(OFF) (shown in
Figure 9-3). When the BR pin voltage becomes VBR(IN) or
more, the IC starts switching operation.
BR1
Startup Operation
Figure 9-1 shows the circuit around the IC.
The IC incorporates the startup circuit. The circuit is
connected to the D/ST pin. When the D/ST pin voltage
reaches to Startup Circuit Operation Voltage, VST(ON) = 47
V, the startup circuit starts operation.
During the startup process, the constant current,
ICC(ST) = − 2.5 mA, charges C2 at the VCC pin. When the
VCC pin voltage increases to VCC(ON) = 15.0 V, the control
circuit starts operation. During the IC operation, the

Figure 9-1 becomes a power source to the VCC pin. After
switching operation begins, the startup circuit turns off
automatically so that its current consumption becomes
zero.
The approximate value of auxiliary winding voltage is
about 15 V to 20 V, taking account of the winding turns of
D winding so that VCC pin voltage becomes Equation (1)

Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
Figure 9-4 shows the relationship of VCC pin
voltage and circuit current ICC. When the VCC pin
voltage decreases to VCC(OFF) = 8.5 V, the control
circuit stops operation by the Undervoltage Lockout
(UVLO) circuit, and reverts to the state before
startup.

When the VCC pin voltage is decrease to VCC(OFF) = 8.5
V in startup operation, the IC stops switching operation
and a startup failure occurs.
When the output load is light at startup, the output
voltage may become more than the target voltage due to
the delay of feedback circuit. In this case, the FB pin
voltage is decreased by the feedback control. When the FB
pin voltage decreases to VFB(OFF) or less, the IC stops
switching operation and the VCC pin voltage decreases.
When the VCC pin voltage decreases to VCC(BIAS), the Bias
Assist Function is activated and the startup failure is
prevented.

Bias Assist Function
By the Bias Assist Function, the startup failure is
prevented.
When FB pin voltage is the FB/OLP Pin Oscillation
Stop Threshold Voltage, VFB(OFF)= 1.16 V or less and VCC
pin voltage decreases to the Startup Current Biasing
Threshold Voltage, VCC(BIAS) = 9.6 V, the Bias Assist
Function is activated.
When the Bias Assist Function is activated, the VCC
pin voltage is kept almost constant voltage, VCC(BIAS) by
providing the startup current, ICC(ST), from the startup
circuit. Thus, the VCC pin voltage is kept more than
VCC(OFF).
Since the startup failure is prevented by the Bias Assist
Function, the value of C2 connected to the VCC pin can
be small. Thus, the startup time and the response time of
the Overvoltage Protection (OVP) become shorter.
The operation of the Bias Assist Function in startup is
as follows. It is necessary to check and adjust the startup
process based on actual operation in the application, so
that poor starting conditions may be avoided.
Figure 9-5 shows the VCC pin voltage behavior during
the startup period.
After the VCC pin voltage increases to VCC(ON) = 15.0
V at startup, the IC starts the operation. Then circuit
current increases and the VCC pin voltage decreases. At
the same time, the auxiliary winding voltage, VD,
increases in proportion to output voltage. These are all
balanced to produce the VCC pin voltage.

secondary side rectifier diode.
Since the Leading Edge Blanking Function (refer to
Section 0) is deactivated during the soft start period, there
is the case that ON time is less than the leading edge
blanking time, tBW = 330 ns. After the soft start period,
D/ST pin current, ID, is limited by the Overcurrent
Protection (OCP), until the output voltage increases to the
target operating voltage. This period is given as t LIM. In
case tLIM is longer than the OLP Delay Time, tOLP, the
output power is limited by the Overload Protection (OLP).
Thus, it is necessary to adjust the value of output capacitor
and the turn ratio of auxiliary winding D so that the t LIM is
less than tOLP = 55 ms (min.).
9.5
Constant Output Voltage Control
The IC achieves the constant voltage control of the
power supply output by using the current-mode control
method, which enhances the response speed and provides
the stable operation.
FB/OLP pin voltage is internally added the slope
compensation at the feedback control (refer to Section
4.Functionnal Block Diagram), and the target voltage, VSC,
is generated. The IC compares the voltage, VROCP, of a
current detection resistor with the target voltage, V SC, by
the internal FB comparator, and controls the peak value of
VROCP so that it gets close to VSC, as shown in Figure 9-7
and Figure 9-8.

• Light load conditions
When load conditions become lighter, the output
voltage, VOUT, increases. Thus, the feedback current
from the error amplifier on the secondary-side also
increases. The feedback current is sunk at the FB/OLP
pin, transferred through a photo-coupler, PC1, and the
FB/OLP pin voltage decreases. Thus, VSC decreases,
and the peak value of VROCP is controlled to be low, and
the peak drain current of ID decreases.
This control prevents the output voltage from increasing.
• Heavy load conditions
When load conditions become greater, the IC performs
the inverse operation to that described above. Thus, VSC
increases and the peak drain current of I D increases.
This control prevents the output voltage from
decreasing.
In the current mode control method, when the drain
current waveform becomes trapezoidal in continuous
operating mode, even if the peak current level set by the
target voltage is constant, the on-time fluctuates based on
the initial value of the drain current.
This results in the on-time fluctuating in multiples of
the fundamental operating frequency as shown in Figure
9-9. This is called the subharmonics phenomenon.
In order to avoid this, the IC incorporates the Slope
Compensation Function. Because the target voltage is
added a down-slope compensation signal, which reduces
the peak drain current as the on-duty gets wider relative to
the FB/OLP pin signal to compensate VSC, the
subharmonics phenomenon is suppressed.
Even if subharmonic oscillations occur when the IC has
some excess supply being out of feedback control, such as
during startup and load shorted, this does not affect
performance of normal operation.

Leading Edge Blanking Function
The constant voltage control of output of the IC uses the
peak-current-mode control method.
In the peak-current-mode control method, there is a case
that a power MOSFET turns off due to unexpected
response of the FB comparator or Overcurrent Protection
circuit (OCP) to the steep surge current in turning on the
power MOSFET.
In order to prevent this response to the surge voltage in
turning-on the power MOSFET, the Leading Edge
Blanking Time, tBW = 330 ns is built-in. During tBW, the
OCP threshold voltage becomes VOCP(LEB) = 1.69 V in
order not to respond to the turn-on drain current surge
(refer to Section 9.10).

Random Switching Function
The IC modulates its switching frequency randomly by
superposing the modulating frequency on f OSC(AVG) in
normal operation. This function reduces the conduction
noise compared to others without this function, and
simplifies noise filtering of the input lines of power supply.
9.8
Automatic Standby Mode Function
Automatic standby mode is activated automatically
when FB/OLP pin voltage decreases to VFB(OFF) = 1.16 V.
The operation mode becomes burst oscillation, as
shown in Figure 9-10. Burst oscillation mode reduces
switching losses and improves power supply efficiency
because of periodic non-switching intervals.
Generally, to improve efficiency under light load
conditions, the frequency of the burst oscillation mode
becomes just a few kilohertz. Because the IC suppresses
the peak drain current well during burst oscillation mode,
audible noises can be reduced.
If the VCC pin voltage decreases to VCC(BIAS) = 9.6 V
during the transition to the burst oscillation mode, the Bias
Assist Function is activated and stabilizes the Standby
mode operation, because ICC(ST) is provided to the VCC pin
so that the VCC pin voltage does not decrease to VCC(OFF).
However, if the Bias Assist Function is always activated
during steady-state operation including standby mode, the
power loss increases. Therefore, the VCC pin voltage
should be more than VCC(BIAS), for example, by adjusting
the turns ratio of the auxiliary winding and secondary
winding and/or reducing the value of R2 (refer to Section
10.1).

Brown-In and Brown-Out Function
This function stops switching operation when it detects
low input line voltage, and thus prevents excessive input
current and overheating.
This function turns on and off switching operation
according to BR pin voltage detecting the AC input
voltage. When the BR pin voltage becomes more than
VBR(DIS) = 0.6 V, this function is activated.
Figure 9-11 shows waveforms of the BR pin voltage
and the drain currnet.
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 BR pin voltage falls to
VBR(OUT) = 4.80 V or less for the OLP Delay Time,
tOLP = 75 ms, the IC stops switching operation.
When the AC input voltage increases and the BR pin
voltage reaches VBR(IN) = 5.60 V or more in the operating
state that VCC pin voltage is VCC(OFF) or more, the IC starts
switching operation.
When the Brown-In and Brown-Out Function is
unnecessary, connect the BR pin trace to the GND pin
trace so that the BR pin voltage is VBR(DIS) or less.

Figure 9-12 shows the BR pin peripheral circuit of DC
line detection. There is a ripple voltage on C1 occurring at
a half period of AC cycle. In order to detect each peak of
the ripple voltage, the time constant of RC and C4 should
be shorter than a half period of AC cycle.
Since the cycle of the ripple voltage is shorter than tOLP,
the switching operation does not stop when only the
bottom part of the ripple voltage becomes lower than
VBR(OUT).
Thus it minimizes the influence of load conditions on
the voltage detection.
The components around the BR pin:
・ RA and RB are a few megohms. Because of high
voltage applied and high resistance, it is
recommended to select a resistor designed against
electromigration or use a combination of resistors in

Figure 9-13 shows the BR pin peripheral circuit of AC

time constant of RC and C4 should be longer than the
period of AC cycle. Thus the response of the BR pin
detection becomes slow compared with the DC line
detection. This method detects the AC input voltage, and
thus it minimizes the influence from load conditions. Also,
this method is free of influence from C1 charging and

Overcurrent Protection (OCP) detects each drain peak
current level of a power MOSFET on pulse-by-pulse basis,
and limits the output power when the current level reaches
to OCP threshold voltage.
During the Leading Edge Blanking Time, the OCP
threshold voltage becomes VOCP(LEB) = 1.69 V which is
higher than the normal OCP threshold voltage as shown in
Figure 9-14. Changing to this threshold voltage prevents
the IC from responding to the surge voltage in turning-on
the power MOSFET. This function operates as protection
at the condition such as output windings shorted or
unusual withstand voltage of secondary-side rectifier
diodes.
When the power MOSFET turns on, the surge voltage
width of the S/OCP pin should be less than tBW, as shown
in Figure 9-14. In order to prevent surge voltage, pay extra
attention to ROCP trace layout (refer to Section 10.2).
In addition, if a C (RC) damper snubber of Figure 9-15
is used, reduce the capacitor value of damper snubber.

ICs with PWM control usually have some propagation
delay time. The steeper the slope of the actual drain
current at a high AC input voltage is, the larger the
detection voltage of actual drain peak current is, compared
to VOCP. Thus, the peak current has some variation
depending on the AC input voltage in OCP state. In order
to reduce the variation of peak current in OCP state, the
IC incorporates a built-in Input Compensation Function.
The Input Compensation Function is the function of
correction of the OCP threshold voltage depending with
AC input voltage, as shown in Figure 9-16.
When AC input voltage is low (ON Duty is broad), the
OCP threshold voltage is controlled to become high. The
difference of peak drain current become small compared
with the case where the AC input voltage is high (ON Duty
is narrow).

Figure 9-17 shows the FB/OLP pin peripheral circuit,
and Figure 9-18 shows each waveform for Overload
Protection (OLP) operation.
When the peak drain current of ID is limited by
Overcurrent Protection operation, the output voltage,
VOUT, decreases and the feedback current from the
secondary photo-coupler becomes zero. Thus, the
feedback current, IFB, charges C3 connected to the
FB/OLP pin and FB/OLP pin voltage increases. When the
FB/OLP pin voltage increases to VFB(OLP) = 7.3 V or more
for the OLP delay time, tOLP = 75 ms or more, the OLP is
activated, the IC stops switching operation.
During OLP operation, the Bias Assist Function is
disabled. Thus, VCC pin voltage decreases to VCC(OFF), the
control circuit stops operation. After that, the IC reverts to
the initial state by UVLO circuit, and the IC starts
operation when the VCC pin voltage increases to VCC(ON)
by startup current. Thus, the intermittent operation by
UVLO is repeated in OLP state.
This intermittent operation reduces the stress of parts
such as a power MOSFET and a secondary side rectifier
diode. In addition, this operation reduces power
consumption because the switching period in this
intermittent operation is short compared with oscillation
stop period. When the abnormal condition is removed, the
IC returns to normal operation automatically.

When the voltage between the VCC pin and the GND

operation.
During OVP operation, the Bias Assist Function is
disabled, the intermittent operation by UVLO is repeated
(refer to Section 9.11). When the fault condition is
removed, the IC returns to normal operation automatically
(refer to Figure 9-19). When VCC pin voltage is provided
by using auxiliary winding of transformer, the overvoltage
conditions such as output voltage detection circuit open
can be detected because the VCC pin voltage is
proportional to output voltage. The approximate value of

9.13 Thermal Shutdown (TSD)
Figure 9-20 shows the Thermal Shutdown (TSD)
operational waveforms.
When the temperature of control circuit increases to
Tj(TSD) = 145 °C or more, TSD is activated, and the IC
stops switching operation. After that, VCC pin voltage
decreases. When the VCC pin voltage decreases to
VCC(BIAS), the Bias Assist Function is activated and the
VCC pin voltage is kept to over the VCC(OFF).
When the temperature reduces to less than
Tj(TSD)−Tj(TSD)HYS, the Bias Assist Function is disabled and
the VCC pin voltage decreases to VCC(OFF). At that time,
the IC stops operation by the UVLO circuit and reverts to
the state before startup. After that, the startup circuit is
activated, the VCC pin voltage increases to VCC(ON), and
the IC starts switching operation again. In this way, the
intermittent operation by TSD and UVLO is repeated
while there is an excess thermal condition.
When the fault condition is removed, the IC returns to
normal operation automatically.

value of C3 is recommended to be about 2200 pF to 0.01

• VCC Pin Peripheral Circuit
The value of C2 is generally recommended to be 10 µF
to 47 μF (refer to Section 9.1 Startup Operation,
because the startup time is determined by the value of
C2).
In actual power supply circuits, there are cases in which
VCC pin voltage fluctuates in proportion to the output
current, IOUT (see Figure 10-2), and the Overvoltage
Protection (OVP) on the VCC pin may be activated.
This happens because C2 is charged to a peak voltage
on the auxiliary winding D, which is caused by the
transient surge voltage coupled from the primary
winding when a power MOSFET turns off.
For alleviating C2 peak charging, it is effective to add
some value R2, of several tenths of ohms to several
ohms, in series with D2 (see Figure 10-1). The optimal
value of R2 should be determined using a transformer
matching what will be used in the actual application,
because the variation of the auxiliary winding voltage
is affected by the transformer structural design.

• Transformer
Apply proper design margin to core temperature rise by
core loss and copper loss.
Because the switching currents contain high frequency
currents, the skin effect may become a consideration.
Choose a suitable wire gauge in consideration of the
RMS current and a current density of 4 to 6 A/mm 2.
If measures to further reduce temperature are still
necessary, the following should be considered to
increase the total surface area of the wiring:
▫ Increase the number of wires in parallel.
▫ Use litz wires.
▫ Thicken the wire gauge.

• Snubber Circuit
If the surge voltage of VDS is large, the circuit should be
added as follows (see Figure 10-1);
・ A clamp snubber circuit of a capacitor-resistor- diode
(CRD) combination should be added on the primary
winding P.
・ A damper snubber circuit of a capacitor (C) or a
resistor-capacitor (RC) combination should be added
between the D/ST pin and the S/GND pin.
When the damper snubber circuit is added, this
components should be connected near the D/ST pin
and the S/OCP pin.
• Phase Compensation
A typical phase compensation circuit with a secondary
shunt regulator (U51) is shown in Figure 10-3.
C52 and R53 are for phase compensation. The value of
C52 and R53 are recommended to be around 0.047μF to
0.47μF and 4.7 kΩ to 470 kΩ, respectively. They should
In the following cases, the surge of VCC pin voltage
becomes high.
▫ The surge voltage of primary main winding, P, is high
(low output voltage and high output current power
supply designs)
▫ The winding structure of auxiliary winding, D, is
susceptible to the noise of winding P.
When the surge voltage of winding D is high, the
VCC pin voltage increases and the Overvoltage
Protection (OVP) may be activated. In transformer
design, the following should be considered;
▫ The coupling of the winding P and the secondary
output winding S should be maximized to reduce the
leakage inductance.
▫ The coupling of the winding D and the winding S
should be maximized.
▫ The coupling of the winding D and the winding P
should be minimized.
In the case of multi-output power supply, the
coupling of the secondary-side stabilized output
winding, S1, and the others (S2, S3…) should be
maximized to improve the line-regulation of those

outputs.
Figure 10-4 shows the winding structural examples
of two outputs.
Winding structural example (a):
S1 is sandwiched between P1 and P2 to maximize
the coupling of them for surge reduction of P1 and
P2.
D is placed far from P1 and P2 to minimize the
coupling to the primary for the surge reduction of
D.
Winding structural example (b)
P1 and P2 are placed close to S1 to maximize the
coupling of S1 for surge reduction of P1 and P2.
D and S2 are sandwiched by S1 to maximize the
coupling of D and S1, and that of S1 and S2. This
structure reduces the surge of D, and improves the
line-regulation of outputs.

and thus it should be as wide trace and small loop as
possible.
If C1 and the IC are distant from each other, placing a
capacitor such as film capacitor (about 0.1 μF and with
proper voltage rating) close to the transformer or the
IC is recommended to reduce impedance of the high
frequency current loop.
(2) Control Ground Trace Layout
Since the operation of the IC may be affected from the
large current of the main trace that flows in control
ground trace, the control ground trace should be
separated from main trace and connected at a single
point grounding of the point A in Figure 10-5 as close
to the ROCP pin as possible.
(3) VCC Trace Layout:
This is the trace for supplying power to the IC, and
thus it should be as small loop as possible. If C2 and
the IC are distant from each other, placing a capacitor
such as film capacitor Cf (about 0.1 μF to 1.0 μF) close
to the VCC pin and the GND pin is recommended.
(4) ROCP Trace Layout
ROCP should be placed as close as possible to the
S/OCP pin. The connection between the power ground
of the main trace and the IC ground should be at a
single point ground (point A in Figure 10-5) which is
close to the base of ROCP.

10.2 PCB Trace Layout and Component
Placement
Since the PCB circuit trace design and the component
layout significantly affects operation, EMI noise, and power
dissipation, the high frequency PCB trace should be low
impedance with small loop and wide trace.
In addition, the ground traces affect radiated EMI noise,
and wide, short traces should be taken into account.
Figure 10-5 shows the circuit design example.
(1) Main Circuit Trace Layout
This is the main trace containing switching currents,
(6) Secondary Rectifier Smoothing Circuit Trace Layout:
This is the trace of the rectifier smoothing loop,
carrying the switching current, and thus it should be as
wide trace and small loop as possible. If this trace is
thin and long, inductance resulting from the loop may
increase surge voltage at turning off a power MOSFET.
Proper rectifier smoothing trace layout helps to
increase margin against the power MOSFET
breakdown voltage, and reduces stress on the clamp
snubber circuit and losses in it.
(7) Thermal Considerations
Because the power MOSFET has a positive thermal
coefficient of RDS(ON), consider it in thermal design.
Since the copper area under the IC and the D/ST pin
trace act as a heatsink, its traces should be as wide as
possible.
