• Burst Mode for Low Standby Power Consumption, Meets EuP Lot 6 Standards
• Frequency Jittering (fJITTER) for Reduced Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
• Compatible with DC and AC Inputs
• Adjustable Over-Power Compensation (OPC)
• Internal High-Voltage Current Source
• VCC Under-Voltage Lockout (UVLO) Protection with Hysteresis
• Brownout Protection via the HV Pin
• Configurable Soft Start (SS)

Typical Application Circuit

Applications

• AC/DC Powered Appliances
• AC/DC Adapters for Notebooks Computers, Tablets, and Smartphones
• Offline Battery Chargers

Design Notes

• The PFC inductor must support the maximum duty cycle at the lowest line voltage, which is where saturation risk peaks.
• High-voltage startup and X-capacitor discharge paths dominate no-load standby loss; verify them against the efficiency target.
• Leakage inductance and the RCD clamp set the turn-off loss — snubber values are a thermal trade-off, not a fixed recipe.
• Synchronous rectification timing must track the primary switching; a mistimed SR FET conducts through its body diode and fails hot.
