Operation Description:
Current Mode Topology:
The current mode control method, like the one integrated in the VIPer100/100A, uses two control loops an inner current control loop and an outer loop for voltage control. When the Power MOSFET output
transistor is on, the inductor current (primary side of the transformer) is monitored with a SenseFET
technique and converted into a voltage VS proportional to this current. When VS reaches VCOMP (the
amplified output voltage error) the power switch is switched off. Thus, the outer voltage control loop
defines the level at which the inner loop regulates peak current through the power switch and the primary
winding of the transformer.
Excellent open loop D.C. and dynamic line regulation is ensured due to the inherent input voltage
feedforward characteristic of the current mode control. This results in improved line regulation,
instantaneous correction to line changes, and better stability for the voltage regulation loop.
Current mode topology also ensures good limitation in case there is a short circuit. During the first phase
the output current increases slowly following the dynamic of the regulation loop. Then it reaches the
maximum limitation current internally set and finally stops because the power supply on VDD is no longer
correct. For specific applications the maximum peak current internally set can be overridden by externally
limiting the voltage excursion on the COMP pin. An integrated blanking filter inhibits the PWM comparator
output for a short time after the integrated Power MOSFET is switched on. This function prevents
anomalous or premature termination of the switching pulse in case there are current spikes caused by
primary side capacitance or secondary side rectifier reverse recovery time.

Stand-by operation in nearly open load conditions automatically leads to a burst mode operation allowing

ISTBY is the minimum controllable current, corresponding to the minimum on time that the device is able
to provide in normal operation. This current can be computed as :

tb + td is the sum of the blanking time and of the propagation time of the internal current sense and

affected by the efficiency of the converter at low load, and must include the power drawn on the primary
auxiliary voltage.
r
P
e
t
e
l
o
As soon as the power goes below this limit, the auxiliary secondary voltage starts to increase above the
13V regulation level, forcing the output voltage of the transconductance amplifier to low state (VCOMP <
VCOMPth). This situation leads to the shutdown mode where the power switch is maintained in the Off
state, resulting in missing cycles and zero duty cycle. As soon as VDD gets back to the regulation level
and the VCOMPth threshold is reached, the device operates again. The above cycle repeats indefinitely,
providing a burst mode of which the effective duty cycle is much lower than the minimum one when in
normal operation. The equivalent switching frequency is also lower than the normal one, leading to a
reduced consumption on the input main supply lines. This mode of operation allows the VIPer100/100A
to meet the new German "Blue Angel" Norm with less than 1W total power consumption for the system
when working in stand-by mode. The output voltage remains regulated around the normal level, with a
low frequency ripple corresponding to the burst mode. The amplitude of this ripple is low, because of the
output capacitors and low output current drawn in such conditions.The normal operation resumes
automatically when the power gets back to higher levels than PSTBY.

High Voltage Start-up Current Suorce
An integrated high voltage current source provides a bias current from the DRAIN pin during the start-up
phase. This current is partially absorbed by internal control circuits which are placed into a standby mode
with reduced consumption and also provided to the external capacitor connected to the VDD pin. As soon
as the voltage on this pin reaches the high voltage threshold VDDon of the UVLO logic, the device
becomes active mode and starts switching. The start-up current generator is switched off, and the
converter should normally provide the needed current on the VDD pin through the auxiliary winding of the
transformer, as shown on (see Figure 18).
In case there are abnormal conditions where the auxiliary winding is unable to provide the low voltage
supply current to the VDD pin (i.e. short circuit on the output of the converter), the external capacitor
discharges to the low threshold voltage VDDoff of the UVLO logic, and the device goes back to the inactive
state where the internal circuits are in standby mode and the start-up current source is activated. The
converter enters a endless start-up cycle, with a start-up duty cycle defined by the ratio of charging
current towards discharging when the VIPer100/100A tries to start. This ratio is fixed by design to 2A to
15A, which gives a 12% start-up duty cycle while the power dissipation at start-up is approximately 0.6W,
for a 230Vrms input voltage.
)
s
t(
This low value start-up duty cycle prevents the application of stress to the output rectifiers as well as the
transformer when a short circuit occurs.
c
u
d
The external capacitor CVDD on the VDD pin must be sized according to the time needed by the converter
to start up, when the device starts switching. This time tSS depends on many parameters, among which
transformer design, output capacitors, soft start feature, and compensation network implemented on the
COMP pin. The following formula can be used for defining the minimum capacitor needed:

tSS is the start up time of the converter when the device begins to switch. Worst case is generally at full
load.
VDDhyst is the voltage hysteresis of the UVLO logic (refer to the minimum specified value).
)
s
(
ct
The soft start feature can be implemented on the COMP pin through a simple capacitor which will be also
used as the compensation network. In this case, the regulation loop bandwidth is rather low, because of
the large value of this capacitor. In case a large regulation loop bandwidth is mandatory, the schematics
of (see Figure 19) can be used. It mixes a high performance compensation network together with a
separate high value soft start capacitor. Both soft start time and regulation loop bandwidth can be
adjusted separately.

If the device is intentionally shut down by tying the COMP pin to ground, the device is also performing
start-up cycles, and the VDD voltage is oscillating between VDDon and VDDoff.

This voltage can be used for supplying external functions, provided that their consumption does not
exceed 0.5mA. (see Figure 20) page 17 shows a typical application of this function, with a latched
shutdown. Once the "Shutdown" signal has been activated, the device remains in the Off state until the
input voltage is removed.

Transconductance Error Amplifier
The VIPer100/100A includes a transconductance error amplifier. Transconductance Gm is the change in
output current (ICOMP) versus change in input voltage (VDD). Thus:
G
m
∂I OM P
= ------C
-----------------∂ V DD
The output impedance ZCOMP at the output of this amplifier (COMP pin) can be defined as:
Z
CO MP
∂VCOMP
1 ∂ VCOMP
= -------------------------- = --------- × -------------------------G
∂ I CO MP
∂VDD
m
This last equation shows that the open loop gain AVOL can be related to Gm and ZCOMP:
AVOL = Gm x ZCOMP
where Gm value for VIPer100/100A is 1.5 mA/V typically.
Gm is defined by specification, but ZCOMP and therefore AVOL are subject to large tolerances. An
impedance Z can be connected between the COMP pin and ground in order to define the transfer
function F of the error amplifier more accurately, according to the following equation (very similar to the
one above):

F(S) = Gm x Z(S)

P
The error amplifier frequency response is reported in figure 10 page 8 for different values of a simple
resistance connected on the COMP pin. The unloaded transconductance error amplifier shows an
internal ZCOMP of about 330KΩ. More complex impedance can be connected on the COMP pin to achieve
different compensation level. A capacitor will provide an integrator function, thus eliminating the DC static
error, and a resistance in series leads to a flat gain at higher frequency, insuring a correct phase margin.
This configuration is illustrated in (see Figure 21) page 17.

As shown in (see Figure 21) an additional noise filtering capacitor of 2.2nF is generally needed to avoid
any high frequency interference.
Is also possible to implement a slope compensation when working in continuous mode with duty cycle
higher than 50%. (see Figure 22) shows such a configuration. Note: R1 and C2 build the classical
compensation network, and Q1 is injecting the slope compensation with the correct polarity from the

the proposed schematic is used, the pulse duration must be kept at a low value (500ns is sufficient) for
minimizing consumption. The optocoupler must be able to provide 20mA through the optotransistor.

shown in (see Figure 24) page 18. The circuit based on Q1, R1 and R2 clamps the voltage on the COMP
pin in order to limit the primary peak current of the device to a value:

Over-temperature protection is based on chip temperature sensing. The minimum junction temperature at
which over-temperature cut-out occurs is 140ºC, while the typical value is 170ºC. The device is
automatically restarted when the junction temperature decreases to the restart temperature threshold that
is typically 40ºC below the shutdown value (see Figure 11) page 8..

Electrical Over Stress Ruggedness

t(
The VIPer may be submitted to electrical over-stress, caused by violent input voltage surges or lightning.
Following the Layout Considerations is sufficient to prevent catastrophic damages most of the time.
However in some cases, the voltage surges coupled through the transformer auxiliary winding can
exceed the VDD pin absolute maximum rating voltage value. Such events may trigger the VDD internal
protection circuitry which could be damaged by the strong discharge current of the VDD bulk capacitor.
The simple RC filter shown in (see Figure 25) page 17 can be implemented to improve the application
immunity to such surges.

Some simple rules insure a correct running of switching power supplies. They may be classified into two
categories:
o
s
b
O
-
- Minimizing power loops: The switched power current must be carefully analysed and the corresponding
paths must be as small an inner loop area as possible. This avoids radiated EMC noises, conducted EMC
noises by magnetic coupling, and provides a better efficiency by eliminating parasitic inductances,
especially on secondary side.

may result in instabilities and/or anomalous behaviour of the device in case of violent power surge (Input
overvoltages, output short circuits...).

In case of VIPer, these rules apply as shown on (see Figure 26).
