4 Rect angular U-I Output character istics
Figure 3. Rect angular U-I output characteristics for battery charger
A complete regulation scheme can achieve combined and accurate output characteristics.
Figure 3. presents a secondary feedback through an optocoupler driven by a TSM101. This
device offe rs two operational amplifiers and a volt age r eference, thus allowing the regulation
of both o utpu t voltage and current. An i ntegr ated OR function perfo rms the combination of
the two resul ting error signals, leading to a d ual voltage and current limitati on, known as a
rect angular output characteristic. This type of power supply is especially useful for battery
chargers where the output is mainly u se d in current mode, in order to delive r a defined
charging rate. The accurate voltage re gulation is also convenient for Li-ion batteries which
require both modes of operation.
Wide range of VDD voltage VIPer12ADIP/ AS - E
8/21 DocRev1
5 Wide range of VDD voltage
The VDD pin vol tage range extends from 9V to 38V. This feature offers a great flexibility in
design to achieve various behaviors. In Figure 3 on page 7 a forward configuration has been
chosen to supply the device with two benefits:
As soon as the device starts switc hing, it immediately receives some energy from the
auxilia ry windi ng. C5 can be therefore reduc ed and a smal l ceramic c hip (100nF) is
sufficient to insure the filtering function. The total s tart up time from the switch on of i nput
voltage to output voltage presence is dramatically decreased .
The output current characteristic can be maintained even with ve ry low or zero output
voltage. Since the TSM101 is also supplied i n forward mode, it keeps the current
regulation up whatever the output voltage is.The VDD pin voltage may vary as much as
the input voltage, that is to say with a ratio of about 4 for a wide range applica tion.
VIPe r12ADIP / AS - E Feedb ack pin principle of operation
DocRev1 9/21
6 Feedback pin pri nciple of operation
A fe edbac k pin controls the operation of the device. Unlike convention al PWM contro l
circuits which use a voltage input (the inverted input of an operational amplifier), the FB pin
is sens itive to current. F igur e 4. presents the internal current mode s tructure.
Figure 4. Intern al cu rren t contro l struc ture
The Power MOSFET delivers a sense current Is which is proportional to the main c urrent Id.
R2 receives this current and the current coming fr om the FB pin. The volt age across R2 is
then compared to a fixed refe renc e voltage of about 0.23V. The MOSFET is switched off
when the following equation is reached:
By extracting IS:

Feedb ack pin principle of operation VIPer12ADI P/ AS - E
10/21 DocRev1
The current limitation is obtained with the FB pin shorted to ground (VFB = 0V). Thi s leads t o
a negative current sourced by this pin, and expressed by:
By reporting this expression in th e previous one, it is possible to obtain the drain current
limitation I Dlim:
In a re al application, the FB pin is driven with an optocoup ler as shown on Figure 4. which
acts as a pull up. So, it is not possible to really short this pin to ground and the above drain
current value is not achievab le. Nevertheless, the capacitor C i s averaging the voltage on
the FB pin, and when the optocoupler is off (st art up or s hort circuit), it can be assumed that
the corresponding voltage is very clos e to 0V.
For low drain currents, the formula (1) is v alid as long as IFB satisfies IFB < IFBsd, where
IFBsd i s an internal threshold of the VIPer12A. If IFB exce eds this threshold the device will
stop switching. This is represented on Figure 1 1 o n pa ge 14, and IFBsd value is specified in the
PWM COMPAR ATOR SECTION. Actually, as soon as the drain curre nt is about 12% of
Idlim, that is to say 50 mA, the device will enter a burst mode operation by miss ing switching
cycles. This is espe cially important when the converter is lightly loaded.
Figure 5. IFB Transfer f unct io n
It is then possible to build the total DC transfer function between ID and IFB as shown on
Figure 5 on page 10. This figure also takes into account the internal blanking time and its
associated minimum turn on time. This imposes a minimum drain current unde r which the
device is no more able to control it in a linear way. This drain current depends on the primary
inductance value of the transformer and the input volt age. T wo cases may occur , depending
on the value of this curre nt versus the fixed 50mA value, as described above.

VIPer12ADIP/ AS - E Startup sequence
DocRev1 11/21
7 Startup sequence
Figure 6. Startup sequence
This device includes a high voltag e start up current source connect ed on the drain of the
device. As soon as a vol tage is applied on the input of the converter, this start up current
source is activated as long as VDD is lower than VDDon. When reaching VDDon, the start up
current source is switched off and the device begins to operate by turning on and off it s main
power MOSFET. As t he FB pin does not receive any current from the optocoupler, the
device operates at full current capacity and the output voltage rises until reaching the
regulation point where the secondary loop begins to send a current in the optocoupler. At
this point, the converter enters a regulated operation where the FB pin receiv es the amount
of current needed to delive r the right power on secondary side.
This sequence is shown in Figure 6. Note that during the real starting phase tss, the device
consumes some energy from the VDD capacitor, waiting for the auxiliary winding to provide
a continuous supply. If the v alue of this capacitor is too low, the start up phase is terminated
before receiving any energy from the auxiliary winding an d the converte r never starts up.
This is illustrated also in the same figure in dashed lines.

An overvoltage detector on the VDD pin al lows the VIPer12A to reset itself when VDD
ex ce eds VDDovp. This is ill u s tra t ed in Figure 7., which shows the whole sequence of an
overvoltage event. Note that this ev ent is only latched for the time needed by VDD to reach
VDDoff, and then the device resumes normal opera tion automaticall y.
