BBA
BBA (Brownout, extended blanking Blanking time & Auto-restart enable)
The BBA pin combines the functions of brownout, extendable blanking time for over
load protection and the external auto-restart enable. The brownout feature is to stop
the switching pulse when the input voltage is dropped to a preset low level. The
extendable blanking time function is to extend the built-in 20 ms blanking time for over
load protection by adding an external capacitor to ground. The external auto-restart
enable function is an external access to stop the gate switching and force the IC to enter
auto-restart mode. It is triggered by pulling the pin voltage to less than 0.4 V.

FBB
FBB (Feedback & Burst entry control)
The FBB pin combines the feedback function and the burst entry/exit control. The
regulation information is provided by the FBB pin to the internal Protection Unit and the
internal PWM-Comparator to control the duty cycle. The FBB-signal is the only control
signal in case of light load at the Active Burst Mode. The burst entry/ exit control provides
an access to select the entry/exit burst mode level.

Functional Description

All values which are used in the functional description are typical values. For calculating the worst cases the
min/max values which can be found in section 4 Electrical Characteristics have to be considered.
3.1 Introduction
CoolSET™-F3R80 brownout and jitter 800 V version (ICE3AR2280JG) is the enhanced version of the CoolSET-
F3R 650V version (ICE3BRxx65J). It is particular good for high voltage margin low power SMPS application such
as auxiliary power supply for PC and server. The major characteristics are that the IC is developed with 800 V
CoolMOS™ with start up cell, having adjustable brownout feature, running at 100 kHz switching frequency and
packed in DIP-16/12 package. It is derived from F3R 650 V version. Thus most of the good features are retained.
Besides, it includes some enhanced features and new features.
The retained good features include BiCMOS technology to reduce power consumption and increase the Vcc
voltage range, cycle by cycle current mode control, built-in 10 ms soft start to reduce the stress of switching
elements during start up, built-in 20 ms and extended blanking time for short period of peak power before
entering protection, active burst mode for lowest standby power and propagation delay compensation for
close power limit between high line and low line, frequency jittering for low EMI performance, the built-in auto-
restart mode protections for open loop, over load, Vcc OVP, Vcc under voltage, etc. and also the most flexible
external auto-restart enable, etc.
The enhanced features include narrowing the feedback voltage swing from 0.5V to 0.3V during burst mode so
that the output voltage ripple can be reduced by 40%, reduction of the fast voltage fall time of the MOSFET by
increasing the soft turn-on time and addition of 50 turn-on resistor, faster start up time by optimizing the VCC
capacitor to 10 µF and over temperature protection with 50°C hysteresis.
The new features include adjustable brownout for reliable output performance, selectable entry and exit burst
mode so that smaller entry/exit power to burst mode or even no burst mode is possible and the propagation
delay compensation for burst mode so that the entry/exit burst mode power is close between high line and low
line.
In summary, the CoolSET™ F3R80 provides good voltage margin of MOSFET, lowest standby power, flexible
burst level, reduced output ripple during burst mode, reliable output with brownout feature, accurate power
limit for both maximum power and burst power, low EMI with frequency jittering and soft gate drive, built-in
and flexible protections, etc. Therefore, CoolSET™ F3R80 is a complete solution for the low power SMPS
application.

Figure 4 Power Management
The Undervoltage Lockout monitors the external supply voltage VVCC. When the SMPS is plugged to the main
line the internal Startup Cell is biased and starts to charge the external capacitor CVCC which is connected to the
VCC pin. This VCC charge current is controlled to 0.9 mA by the Startup Cell. When the VVCC exceeds the on-
threshold VVCCon = 17 V the bias circuit are switched on. Then the Startup Cell is switched off by the Undervoltage
Lockout and therefore no power losses present due to the connection of the Startup Cell to the Drain voltage.
To avoid uncontrolled ringing at switch-on, a hysteresis start up voltage is implemented. The switch-off of the
controller can only take place when VVCC falls below 10.5 V after normal operation was entered. The maximum
current consumption before the controller is activated is about 200 µA.
When VVCC falls below the off-threshold VVCCoff = 10.5 V, the bias circuit is switched off and the soft start counter is
reset. Thus it ensures that at every startup cycle the soft start starts at zero.
The internal bias circuit is switched off if Auto Restart Mode is entered. The current consumption is then
reduced to 320 µA.
Once the malfunction condition is removed, this block will then turn back on. The recovery from Auto Restart
Mode does not require re-cycling the AC line.
When Active Burst Mode is entered, the internal Bias is switched off most of the time but the Voltage Reference
is kept alive in order to reduce the current consumption below 620 µA.

In case the amplified current sense signal exceeds the FBB signal the on-time ton of the driver is finished by
resetting the PWM-Latch (Figure 6).
The primary current is sensed by the external series resistor RSense inserted in the source of the integrated
CoolMOS™. By means of Current Mode regulation, the secondary output voltage is insensitive to the line
variations. The current waveform slope will change with the line variation, which controls the duty cycle.
The external RSense allows an individual adjustment of the maximum source current of the integrated
CoolMOS™.
To improve the Current Mode during light load conditions the amplified current ramp of the PWM-OP is
superimposed on a voltage ramp, which is built by the switch T2, the voltage source V1 and a resistor R1 (Figure
6). Every time the oscillator shuts down for maximum duty cycle limitation the switch T2 is closed by VOSC. When
the oscillator triggers the Gate Driver, T2 is opened so that the voltage ramp can start.

In case of light load the amplified current ramp is too small to ensure a stable regulation. In that case the
Voltage Ramp is a well defined signal for the comparison with the FBB-signal. The duty cycle is then controlled
by the slope of the Voltage Ramp.
By means of the time delay circuit which is triggered by the inverted VOSC signal, the Gate Driver is switched-off
until it reaches approximately 156 ns delay time (Figure 8). It allows the duty cycle to be reduced continuously

3.3.1 PWM-OP
The input of the PWM-OP is applied over the internal leading edge blanking to the external sense resistor
RSense connected to pin CS. RSense converts the source current into a sense voltage. The sense voltage is
amplified with a gain of 3.25 by PWM OP. The output of the PWM-OP is connected to the voltage source V1. The
voltage ramp with the superimposed amplified current signal is fed into the positive inputs of the PWM--
Comparator C8 and the Soft-Start-Comparator (Figure 9).

The PWM-Comparator compares the sensed current signal of the integrated CoolMOS™ with the feedback

When the VVCC exceeds the on-threshold voltage, the IC starts the Soft Start mode (Figure 11).
The function is realized by an internal Soft Start resistor, a current sink and a counter. And the amplitude of the
current sink is controlled by the counter (Figure 12).

After the IC is switched on, the VSoftS voltage is controlled such that the voltage is increased step-wisely (32

every 300 µs such that the current sink decrease gradually and the duty ratio of the gate drive increases
gradually. The Soft Start will be finished in 10 ms (tSoft-Start) after the IC is switched on. At the end of the Soft Start
period, the current sink is switched off.
Within the soft start period, the duty cycle is increasing from zero to maximum gradually (Figure 12).

The oscillator generates a fixed frequency of 100 kHz with frequency jittering of ±4% (which is ±4 kHz) at a
jittering period of 4 ms.
A capacitor, a current source and current sink which determine the frequency are integrated. The charging and
discharging current of the implemented oscillator capacitor are internally trimmed in order to achieve a very

accurate switching frequency. The ratio of controlled charge to discharge current is adjusted to reach a
maximum duty cycle limitation of Dmax = 0.75.
Once the Soft Start period is over and when the IC goes into normal operating mode, the switching frequency of
the clock is varied by the control signal from the Soft Start block. Then the switching frequency is varied in
range of 100 kHz ± 4 kHz at period of 4 ms.
3.5.2 PWM-Latch FF1
The output of the oscillator block provides continuous pulse to the PWM-Latch which turns on/off the
integrated CoolMOS™. After the PWM-Latch is set, it is reset by the PWM comparator, the Soft Start comparator
or the Current -Limit comparator. When it is in reset mode, the output of the driver is shut down immediately.

The driver-stage is optimized to minimize EMI and to provide high circuit efficiency. This is done by reducing
the switch on slope when exceeding the integrated CoolMOS™ threshold. This is achieved by a slope control of
the rising edge at the driver’s output (Figure 17) and adding a 50 Ω gate turn on resistor (Figure 16). Thus the
leading switch on spike is minimized.

Furthermore the driver circuit is designed to eliminate cross conduction of the output stage.
During power up, when VCC is below the undervoltage lockout threshold VVCCoff, the output of the Gate Driver is
set to low in order to disable power transfer to the secondary side.

Figure 18 Current Limiting Block
There is a cycle by cycle peak current limiting operation realized by the Current-Limit comparator C10. The
source current of the integrated CoolMOS™ is sensed via an external sense resistor RSense. By means of RSense
the source current is transformed to a sense voltage VSense which is fed into the pin CS. If the voltage VSense
exceeds the internal threshold voltage Vcsth, the comparator C10 immediately turns off the gate drive by
resetting the PWM Latch FF1.
A Propagation Delay Compensation is added to support the immediate shut down of the integrated CoolMOS
with very short propagation delay. Thus the influence of the AC input voltage on the maximum output power
can be reduced to minimal. This compensation applies to both the peak load and burst mode.
In order to prevent the current limit from distortions caused by leading edge spikes, a Leading Edge Blanking
(LEB) is integrated in the current sense path for the comparators C10, C12 and the PWM-OP.
The output of comparator C12 is activated by the Gate G10 if Active Burst Mode is entered. When it is activated,
the current limiting is reduced to Vcsth_burst. This voltage level determines the maximum power level in Active
Burst Mode.

Whenever the integrated CoolMOS™ is switched on, a leading edge spike is generated due to the primary-side

blanked out with a time constant of tLEB = 220 ns for normal load and tLEB = 180 ns for burst mode.
3.6.2 Propagation Delay Compensation (patented)
In case of overcurrent detection, there is always propagation delay to switch off the integrated CoolMOS™. An
overshoot of the peak current Ipeak is induced to the delay, which depends on the ratio of dI/ dt of the peak
current (Figure 20).

The overshoot of Signal 2 is larger than of Signal 1 due to the steeper rising waveform. This change in the slope
is depending on the AC input voltage. Propagation Delay Compensation is integrated to reduce the overshoot
due to dI/dt of the rising primary current. Thus the propagation delay time between exceeding the current
sense threshold Vcsth and the switching off of the integrated CoolMOS™ is compensated over temperature
within a wide input range. Current Limiting is then very accurate.
For example, Ipeak = 0.5 A with RSense = 2. The current sense threshold is set to a static voltage level Vcsth=1 V
without Propagation Delay Compensation. A current ramp of dI/dt = 0.4 A/µs, or dVSense/dt = 0.8 V/µs, and a
propagation delay time of tPropagation Delay =180 ns leads to an Ipeak overshoot of 14.4%. With the propagation
delay compensation, the overshoot is only around 2% (Figure 21).

The Propagation Delay Compensation is realized by means of a dynamic threshold voltage Vcsth (Figure 21). In

Similarly, the same concept of propagation delay compensation is also implemented in burst mode with
reduced level, Vcsth_burst (Figure 18). With this implementation, the entry and exit burst mode power can be very
close between low line and high line input voltage.
3.7 Control Unit
The Control Unit contains the functions for Active Burst Mode and Auto Restart Mode. The Active Burst Mode
and the Auto Restart Mode both have 20ms internal blanking time. For the over load Auto Restart Mode, the 20
ms blanking time can be further extended by adding an external capacitor at BV pin. With the blanking time, the
IC avoids entering into those two modes accidentally. That buffer time is very useful for the application which
works in short duration of peak power occasionally.

Figure 23 Basic and Extendable Blanking Mode
There are 2 kinds of Blanking mode; basic mode and the extendable mode. The basic mode is a built-in 20 ms
blanking time while the extendable mode can extend this blanking time by connecting an external capacitor to
the BBA pin. For the extendable mode, the gate G5 remains blocked even though the 20 ms blanking time is
reached. After reaching the 20 ms blanking time the counter is activated and the switch S1 is turned on to
charge the voltage of BBA pin by the constant current source, Ichg_EB. When the voltage of BBA pin hits 4.5 V,
which is sensed by comparator C11, the counter will increase the counter by 1. Then it switches off the switch

S1 and turns on the switch S2. The voltage at BBA pin will be discharged through a 500 resistor. When the
voltage drops to 0.9 V which is sensed by comparator C3, the switch S2 will be turned off and the switch S1 will
be turned on. Then the constant current Ichg_EB will charge the CBK capacitor again. When the voltage at BBA hits
4.5 V which is sensed by comparator C11, the counter will increase the count to 2. The process repeats until it
reaches total count of 256 (Figure 24). Then the counter will release a high output signal. When the AND gate G5
detects both high signals at the inputs, it will activate the 30 ms spike blanking circuit and finally the auto-
restart mode will be activated.
Figure 24 Waveform at extended blanking time
For example, if CBK=0.1 µF, Ichg_EB=720 mA
Extended blanking time = 256*(CBK*(4.5 V-0.9 V)/Ichg_EB + CBK*500*ln(4.5/0.9)) = 148.6 ms
Total blanking time = 20 ms+ 148.6 ms =168.6 ms
If there is a resistor RBO2 connected to BBA pin, the effective charging current will be reduced. The blanking time
will be increased.
For example, if CBK=0.1 µF, Ichg_EB=720 mA, RBO2=12.8 kΩ,
Ichg_EB’=Ichg_EB-(4.5 V+0.9 V)/(2*RBO2)=509 mA
Extended blanking time = 256*(CBK*(4.5 V-0.9 V)/Ichg_EB’ + CBK*500*ln(4.5/0.9)) = 201.6 ms
Total blanking time = 20 ms+201.6 ms = 221.6 ms
where Ichg_EB=net charging current to CBK
Note: The above calculation does not include the effect of the brown out circuit where there is extra biasing current
flowing from the input. That means the extended blanking time will be shortened with the line voltage
change if brown out circuit is implemented.
3.7.2 Active Burst Mode (patented)
To increase the efficiency of the system at light load, the most effective way is to operate at burst mode.
Starting from CoolSET™ F3, the IC has been employing the active burst mode and it can achieve the lowest
standby power. ICE3AR2280JG adopts the same concept with some more innovative improvements to the
feature. It includes the adjustable entry burst level, close power control between high line and low line and the
smaller output ripple during burst mode.
Most of the burst mode design in the market will provide a fixed entry burst mode level which is a ratio to the
maximum power of the design. ICE3AR2280JG provides a more flexible level which can be selected externally.
The provision also includes not entering burst mode.
Data Sheet 17 Revision 1.1
2017-06-13
Fixed-Frequency, 800V CoolSET™ in DS0-12 Package
Functional Description
Propagation delay is the major contributor for the power control variation for DCM flyback converter. It is
proved to be effective in the maximum power control. ICE3AR2280JG also apply the same concept in the burst
mode. Therefore, the entry and exit burst mode power is also finely controlled during burst mode.
The feedback control swing during burst mode will affect the output ripple voltage directly. ICE3AR2280JG
reduces the swing from 0.5 V to 0.3 V. Therefore, it would have around 40% improvement for the output ripple.

3.7.2.1 Selectable burst entry level
The burst mode entry level can be selected by changing the different capacitor CFB at FBB pin. There are 4 levels
to be selected with different capacitor which are targeted for 10%, 6.67%, 4.38% and 0% of the maximum input
power. At the same time, the exit burst levels are targeted to 20%, 13.3%, 9.6% and 0% of the maximum power
accordingly. The corresponding capacitance range is from 6.8 nF to 100 pF. The below table is the
recommended capacitance range for the entry and exit level with the CFB capacitor.

The selection is at the 1st 1ms of the UVLO “ON” (VVCC > 17 V) during the 1st start up but it does not detect in the
subsequent re-start due to auto-restart protection. In case there is protection triggered such as brown out
before starts up, the detection will be held until the protection is removed. When the Vcc reaches the UVLO
“ON” in the 1st start up, the capacitor CFB at FBB pin is charged by a 5V voltage source through the RFB
resistor. When the voltage at FBB pin hits 4.5 V, the FF4 will be set, the switch S9 is turned “ON” and the counter
will increase by 1. Then the CFB is discharged through a 500 Ω resistor. After reaching 0.5 V, the FF4 is reset and
the switch S9 is turned “OFF”. Then the CFB capacitor is charged by the 5V voltage source again until it reaches
4.5 V. The process repeats until the end of 1 ms. Then the detection is ended. After that, the total number of
count in the counter is compared and the VFB-burst and the Vcs_burst are selected accordingly (Figure 26)

3.7.2.2 Entering Active Burst Mode
The FBB signal is kept monitoring by the comparator C5 (Figure 25). During normal operation, the internal
blanking time counter is reset to 0. When FBB signal falls below VFB_burst, it starts to count. When the counter
reaches 20 ms and FBB signal is still below VFB_burst, the system enters the Active Burst Mode. This time window
prevents a sudden entering into the Active Burst Mode due to large load jumps.
After entering Active Burst Mode, a burst flag is set and the internal bias is switched off in order to reduce the
current consumption of the IC to about 620 µA.
It needs the application to enforce the VCC voltage above the Undervoltage Lockout level of 10.5 V such that
the Startup Cell will not be switched on accidentally. Or otherwise the power loss will increase drastically. The
minimum VCC level during Active Burst Mode depends on the load condition and the application. The lowest
VCC level is reached at no load condition.
3.7.2.3 Working in Active Burst Mode
After entering the Active Burst Mode, the FBB voltage rises as VOUT starts to decrease, which is due to the
inactive PWM section. The comparator C6a monitors the FBB signal. If the voltage level is larger than 3.5 V, the
internal circuit will be activated; the Internal Bias circuit resumes and starts to provide switching pulse. In
Active Burst Mode the gate G10 is released and the current limit is reduced to Vcsth_burst (Figure 3 and Figure 25).
In one hand, it can reduce the conduction loss and the other hand, it can reduce the audible noise. If the load at
VOUT is still kept unchanged, the FBB signal will drop to 3.2 V. At this level the C6b deactivates the internal circuit
again by switching off the Internal Bias. The gate G11 is active again as the burst flag is set after entering Active
Burst Mode. In Active Burst Mode, the FBB voltage is changing like a saw tooth between 3.2 V and 3.5 V (Figure
27).
3.7.2.4 Leaving Active Burst Mode
The FBB voltage will increase immediately if there is a high load jump. This is observed by the comparator C13
(Figure 25). Since the current limit is reduced to 31%~45% of the maximum current during active burst mode, it
needs a certain load jump to raise the FBB signal to exceed 4.0 V. At that time the comparator C5 resets the
Active Burst Mode control which in turn blocks the comparator C12 by the gate G10. The maximum current can
then be resumed to stabilize VOUT.

3.7.3 Protection Modes
The IC provides Auto Restart mode as the major protection feature. Auto Restart mode can prevent the SMPS
from destructive states. There are four kinds of auto restart mode; auto restart mode, non switch auto restart
mode, odd skip auto restart mode and odd skip non switch auto restart mode.

The main purpose of the odd skip auto restart is to extend the restart time such that the power loss during auto
restart protection can be reduced. This feature is particularly good for smaller VCC capacitor where the restart
time is shorter. There is no detecting of fault and no switching pulse for the odd number restart cycle. At the
even number of restart cycle the fault detect and soft start switching pulses maintained. If the fault persists, it
would continue the auto-restart mode. However, if the fault is removed, it can release to normal operation only
at the even number auto restart cycle (Figure 29).

number of the restart cycle (Figure 30).

There are 2 types of VCC over voltage protection; VCC OVP (1) and VCC OVP (2). The VCC OVP (1) takes action
only during the soft start period. The VCC OVP (2) takes the action in any conditions.
VCC OVP (1) condition is when VVCC voltage is > 20.5 V, VFBB voltage is > 4.5 V and during soft start period, the IC
enters into odd skip Auto Restart Mode. This condition likely happens during start up at open loop fault (Figure
30).
Vcc OVP (2) condition is when VVCC voltage is > 25.5V, the IC enters into odd skip Auto Restart Mode (Figure 30).
Data Sheet 22 Revision 1.1
2017-06-13
Fixed-Frequency, 800V CoolSET™ in DS0-12 Package
Functional Description
The over temperature protection OTP is sensed inside the controller IC. The Thermal Shutdown block keeps on
monitoring the junction temperature of the controller. After detecting a junction temperature higher than
130°C, the IC will enter into the odd skip non switch Auto Restart mode. The ICE3AR2280JG has also
implemented with a 50°C hysteresis. That means the IC can only be recovered when the controller junction
temperature is dropped 50°C lower than the over temperature trigger point (Figure 31).
The VCC undervoltage and short opto-coupler will go into the normal auto restart mode inherently.
In case of VCC undervoltage, the Vcc voltage drops indefinitely. When it drops below the Vcc under voltage lock
out “OFF” voltage (10.5 V), the IC will turn off the IC and the startup cell will turn on again. Then the Vcc voltage
will be charged up to UVLO “ON” voltage (17 V) and the IC turns on again provided the startup cell charge up
current is not drained by the fault. If the fault is not removed, the Vcc will continue to drop until it hits UVLO
“OFF” voltage and the restart cycle repeats.
Short Optocoupler can lead to VCC undervoltage because once the opto-coupler (transistor side) is shorted, the
feedback voltage will drop to zero and there will be no switching pulse. Then the VCC voltage will drop same as
the VCC undervoltage.

Figure 33 Over load, open loop protection
In case of Overload or Open Loop, the VFBB voltage exceeds 4.5 V which will be observed by comparator C4. Then
the built-in blanking time counter starts to count. When it reaches 20 ms, the extended blanking time counter
CT1 is activated. The switch S2 is turned on and the voltage at the BBA pin will be discharged through 500 Ω
resistor. When it drops to 0.9 V, the switch S2 is turned off and the Switch S1 is turned on. Then a constant
current source Ichg_EB will start to charge up BBA pin. When the voltage hits 4.5 V which is monitored by
comparator C11, the switch S1 is turned off and the count will increase by 1. Then the switch S2 will turn on
again and the voltage will drop to 0.9 V and rise to 4.5 V again. The count will then increase by 1 again. When the
total count reaches 256, the counter CT1 will stop and it will release a high output signal. When both the input
signals at AND gate G5 is high, the odd skip Auto Restart Mode is activated after the 30 µs spike blanking time
(Figure 30).
The total blanking time depends on the addition of the built-in and the extended blanking time. If there is no
CBK capacitor at BBA pin, the count will finish within 0.1 ms and the equivalent blanking time is just the built-in

time of 20 ms. However, if the CBK capacitor is big enough, it can be as long as 1 s. If CBK is 0.1 µF and Ichg_EB is 720
µA, the extendable blanking time is around 148.6 ms and the total blanking time is 168.6ms.
Since the BBA pin is a multi-function pin, it would share with different functions. The resistor RBO2 from
brownout feature application may however affect the extendable blanking time (Figure 33). Thus it should take
the RBO2 into the calculation of the extendable blanking time. For example the extended blanking time would be
changed (159.6~191.2 ms) with different resistance values of RBO2 resistor. Table 4 shows some examples of CBK,
RBO2 vs blanking time.

Note: RBO2 must be always ≥15 kΩ in enable brownout mode, otherwise overload protection may not work.
3.7.4 Brown out Mode
When the AC input voltage is removed, the voltage at the bulk capacitor will fall. When it reaches a point that
the system is greater than the system allowed maximum power, the system may go into over load protection.
However, this kind of protection is not welcome for some of the applications such as auxiliary power for
PC/server system because the output is in hiccup mode due to over load protection (auto restart mode). The
brownout mode is to eliminate this phenomenon. The IC will sense the input voltage through the bulk
capacitor to the BBA pin by 2 potential divider resistors, RBO1 and RBO2 (Figure 34).
When the system is powered up, the bulk capacitor and the Vcc capacitor are charged up at the same time.
When the VCC voltage is charged to > 7 V, the brownout circuit starts to operate (Figure 34). Since the UVLO is
still at low level as the VCC voltage does not reach the 17 V UVLO “ON” voltage. The NAND gate G20 will release
a low signal to the flip flop FF5 and the negative output of FF5 will release a high signal to turn on the switch S3.
The constant load LD6 will start to draw constant current Ichg_BO from the BBA pin. That means the brownout
mode is default “ON” during the system starts up.

The voltage at bulk capacitor Vbulk continues to increase and so is the voltage at BBA. When the BBA voltage
reaches 0.9 V, the output of OPAMP C14 will become low. Through the inverter gate G21, the “S” input of the flip
flop FF5 is changed to high. Then the negative output of FF5 is low. The brownout mode is then “OFF” and the
constant current load LD6 is also “OFF” through the turn-off of the S3. The system will turn on with soft start in
the coming restart cycle when Vcc reaches the Vcc “ON” voltage 17 V.
When there is an input voltage drop, the BBA voltage also drops. When the voltage at BBA pin falls below 0.9 V,
the output of OPAMP C14 is changed to high. The inverter gate G22 will change the high input to low output.
Then the NAND gate G22 will have a high output. The negative output of the flip flop FF5 is then become high.
The constant load LD6 is “ON” again and the IC enters the brownout mode where the Vcc swings between 10.5
V and 17 V without any switching pulse.
The formula to calculate the RBO1 and RBO2 are as below.
RBO1=Vhys/Ichg_BO
RBO2=Vref_BO*RBO1/(VBO_l -Vref_BO)
where VBO_l: input brownout voltage (low point); Vhys: input brownout hysteresis voltage; Vref_BO: IC reference
voltage for brownout; RBO1 and RBO2: resistors divider from input voltage to BBA pin
For example,
Ichg_BO=10 µA, Vref_BO=0.9 V,
Case 1:
if brownout voltage is 70 VACon and 100 VAC off,
then brownout voltage, VBO_l=100 VDC,
hysteresis voltage, VBO_hys=43 VDC,
RBO1=4.3 M, RBO2=39 k
Case 2:
if brownout voltage is 100 VAC on and 120 VAC off,
then brownout voltage, VBO_l=141 VDC,
hysteresis voltage, VBO_hys=28 VDC,
RBO1=2.8 M, RBO2=18 k

Note: The above calculation assumes the tapping point (bulk capacitor) has a stable voltage with no ripple
voltage. If there is ripple in the input voltage, it should take the highest voltage for the calculation;
VBO_l + ripple voltage. Besides that the low side brownout voltage VBO_l added with the ripple voltage at
the tapping point should always be lower than the high side brownout voltage (VBO_h); VBO_h > VBO_l +
ripple voltage. Otherwise, the brownout feature cannot work properly. In short, when there is a high
load running in system before entering brownout, the input ripple voltage will increase and the
brownout voltage will increase (VBO_l = VBO_l + ripple voltage) at the same time. If the VBO_hys is set too
small and is close to the ripple voltage, then the brownout feature cannot work properly (VBO_l = VBO_h).
If the brownout feature is not needed, it needs to tie the BBA pin to the Vcc pin through a current limiting
resistor, 500 kΩ~1 MΩ. The BBA pin cannot be in floating condition. If the brownout feature is disabled with a tie
up resistor, there is a limitation of the capacitor CBK at the BBA pin. It is as below.

3.7.5 Action sequence at BBA pin
Since there are 3 functions at the same BBA pin; brownout, extended blanking time and the auto-restart
enable, the actions of sequence are set as per the below table in case of several features happens
simultaneously.

Data Sheet 26 Revision 1.1
2017-06-13
Fixed-Frequency, 800V CoolSET™ in DS0-12 Package
Functional Description
The “Auto-restart enable” feature happened first and it follows with the “Extended blanking time” feature.
Then the “Auto-restart enable” feature will continue to hold and the “Extended blanking time” feature is
ignored.
Case 2:
The “Extended blanking time” feature happened first and it follows with the “Auto-restart enable” feature.
Then the “Auto-restart enable” feature will take the priority and the “Extended blanking time” feature is
overridden.
Case 3:
The “Extended blanking time” feature happened first and it follows with the “Brownout” feature. Then the
“Extended blanking time” feature will continue to work until it ends. After that if the over load fault is removed
the “Brownout” feature takes the action.
Case 4:
The “Brownout” feature happened first and it follows with the “Auto-restart enable” feature. Then the
“Brownout” feature will continue to work and the “Auto-restart enable” feature is ignored.
One typical case happened is that the “Extended blanking time” feature happened first and it follows with the
“Brownout” feature. If, however, the over load fault is removed before the end of the extended blanking time,
the “Brownout” feature can take action only after 20 ms buffer time.

4.1 Absolute Maximum Ratings
Note: Absolute maximum ratings are defined as ratings, which when being exceeded may lead to
destruction of the integrated circuit. For the same reason make sure, that any capacitor that will be
connected to pin 11 (VCC) is discharged before assembling the application circuit. Ta=25°C unless
otherwise specified.

Input Power Curve
6 Input Power Curve
Two input power curves giving the typical input power versus ambient temperature are showed below; VIN=85
VAC~265 VAC (Figure 40) and VIN=230 VAC +/-15% (Figure 41). The curves are derived based on a typical
discontinuous mode flyback model which considers either 50% maximum duty ratio or 100V maximum
secondary to primary reflected voltage (higher priority). The calculation is based on no copper area as heatsink
for the device. The input power already includes the power loss at input common mode choke, bridge rectifier
and the CoolMOS.The device saturation current (ID_Puls @ Tj=125°C) is also considered.
To estimate the output power of the device, it is simply multiplying the input power at a particular operating
ambient temperature with the estimated efficiency for the application. For example, a wide range input voltage
(Figure 41), operating temperature is 50°C, estimated efficiency is 85%, then the estimated output power is 22
W (26 W * 85%).

9 Schematic for recommended PCB layout
Figure 44 Marking for ICE3AR2280JG
General guideline for PCB layout design using F3 CoolSET™ (Figure 44):
1. “Star Ground “at bulk capacitor ground, C11:
“Star Ground “means all primary DC grounds should be connected to the ground of bulk capacitor C11
separately in one point. It can reduce the switching noise going into the sensitive pins of the CoolSET™
device effectively. The primary DC grounds include the followings.
a. DC ground of the primary auxiliary winding in power transformer, TR1, and ground of C16 and Z11.
b. DC ground of the current sense resistor, R12
c. DC ground of the CoolSETdevice, GND pin of IC11; the signal grounds from C13, C14, C15 and collector of
IC12 should be connected to the GND pin of IC11 and then “star “connect to the bulk capacitor ground.
d. DC ground from bridge rectifier, BR1
e. DC ground from the bridging Y-capacitor, C4
2. High voltage traces clearance:
High voltage traces should keep enough spacing to the nearby traces. Otherwise, arcing would incur.
a. 400 V traces (positive rail of bulk capacitor C11) to nearby trace: > 2.0 mm
b. 600 V traces (drain voltage of CoolSET™ IC11) to nearby trace: > 2.5 mm
3. Filter capacitor close to the controller ground:
Filter capacitors, C13, C14 and C15 should be placed as close to the controller ground and the controller
pin as possible so as to reduce the switching noise coupled into the controller.
Guideline for PCB layout design when > 3 kV lightning surge test applied (Figure 44):
1. Add spark gap
Spark gap is a pair of saw-tooth like copper plate facing each other which can discharge the accumulated
charge during surge test through the sharp point of the saw-tooth plate.
Data Sheet 38 Revision 1.1
2017-06-13
Fixed-Frequency, 800V CoolSET™ in DS0-12 Package
Schematic for recommended PCB layout
a. Spark Gap 3 and Spark Gap 4, input common mode choke, L1: Gap separation is around 1.5 mm (no safety
concern)
b. Spark Gap 1 and Spark Gap 2, Live / Neutral to GROUND:
These 2 Spark Gaps can be used when the lightning surge requirement is > 6 kV.
230 VAC input voltage application, the gap separation is around 5.5mm
115 VAC input voltage application, the gap separation is around 3mm
2. Add Y-capacitor (C2 and C3) in the Live and Neutral to ground even though it is a 2-pin input
3. Add negative pulse clamping diode, D11 to the Current sense resistor, R12:
The negative pulse clamping diode can reduce the negative pulse going into the CS pin of the CoolSET™
and reduce the abnormal behavior of the CoolSET™. The diode can be a fast speed diode such as 1N4148.
The principle behind is to drain the high surge voltage from Live/Neutral to Ground without passing
through the sensitive components such as the primary controller, IC11.
