Design and Application of Primary-Side Regulation (PSR) PWM Controller

Fairchild Semiconductor 

AN-6067

Constant Current Output Regulation

As shown in Figure 12, the output current IO can be

expressed by Equation 1 when the flyback converter is

operated in DCM. As a result, the output current IO can be

calculated by the signal ipk, tdis. The PSR controller then

determines the on-time of the MOSFET to modulate input

power and provide constant output current.

APPLICATION NOTE

Green-Mode Operation

The proprietary green-mode function of the PSR controller

provides off-time modulation to linearly decrease the PWM

frequency at light-load conditions, as low as 500Hz. With

the green-mode function, the power supply can easily meet

the most stringent of power conservation requirements.

Figure 13 shows the characteristics of the PWM frequency

vs. the output voltage of the error amplifier (VCOMV). The

PSR controller uses the positive, proportional, output load

parameter (VCOMV) as an indication of the output load for

modulating the PWM frequency. In heavy load conditions,

the PWM frequency is fixed at 42KHz. Once VCOMV is lower

than VN, the PWM frequency starts to linearly decrease from

42KHz to 500Hz. Figure 14 is a measured waveform at

burst-mode operation.

The current-sense resistor can adjust the value of the

constant current. Through better design of the transformer

operations under discontinuous current mode, the PSR

controller’s proprietary control structure is able to achieve

accurate and constant current characteristics. Detailed

design guideline for the transformer is introduced in the
