Design Highlights
Simple, low cost, low part count solution
No heatsink required
Low EMI-frequency jitter allows EN55022B/FCC B
compliance with simple EMI filter
High efficiency, >75% at 90 VAC
Low zero load power consumption, <100 mW at
230 VAC
Low standby power consumption, <1 W input at 0.5 W output,
230 VAC
Excellent cross-regulation
Differential and common mode surge immunity to 3 kV
(EN 61000-4-5)
Operation
The TOP245P selected for the design in Figure 1 is ideal for DVD and
set-top applications. The P package removes the need for a heatsink
while still delivering 20 W/25 W peak at an ambient temperature of
50 °C.
The external current limit programming and remote ON/OFF
(inhibit) functions of the M pin allow current mode control and reduced
switching frequency at light and no-load conditions. Current mode
control is implemented by R2, Q3, R3, C16, R4 and R6.
Feedback current above ~2 mA (U1 supply current) forward biases
Q3 and pulls up R6. This adjusts the sink current out of the M pin,

Primary Resonant
Frequency 300 kHz (minimum)
thereby allowing the output voltage feedback loop to control the
primary switch current.
Resistor R6 sets the maximum current limit, while R2 and C16 provide
slope compensation. The value of R4 is chosen to ensure that current
does not flow into the M pin, enabling the line sensing features of the
pin. The current out of the M pin falls as the load is reduced until the
M pin inhibit threshold is reached. The supply then operates with a
fixed 25% current limit, lowering the switching frequency to maintain
regulation. This greatly reduces switching losses, maintaining high
standby efficiency and low no-load power consumption.
Key Design Points
For good cross-regulation, minimize transformer leakage use
foil for 3.3 V and 5 V outputs; minimize peak primary currents by
designing transformer for continuous conduction mode.
Shunt regulator (temperature compensated) between 5 V and 3.3 V
outputs in dotted box on schematic is optional. It is only necessary
where min and max load conditions do not occur simultaneously
on both outputs.
Feedback is taken from both the 3.3 V and 5 V outputs to the refer-
ence (U3) via R9, R11 and R12. The 12 V output is DC stacked on
the 5 V output for enhanced regulation and voltage centering.
Primary clamp components VR1, D5, R7, R1 and C2 limit the
leakage inductance induced peak drain voltage spike.
D5 is a slow recovery diode to recover some of the clamp energy.
It must be a glass passivated type to guarantee a defined trr.
Use a Zener clamp for lowest zero load input power consumption.
