Typicalapplicationsarewallmountadapters,set-topbox,high-
speed modem, standby power supplies, and other applications
requiring very low cost, small size, and low
no-load input power consumption.
Design Highlights
• Compact low cost design (113 mm × 39 mm × 25 mm) with
only 46 parts
• Meets Blue Angel no-load power consumption
• Line undervoltage protection prevents turn-off output
glitches and overvoltage protection provides extended line
surge protection
• Hysteretic thermal shutdown provides automatic fault
recovery
• Frequency jittering dramatically reduces EMI and meets
EN550022 Class B without Y1 capacitor
• Ultra low leakage current (<1 µA at 265 VAC) eliminates
audio hum in voice applications
• Surge immunity to 4 kV (EN61000-4-5)
• High efficiency >70%
TheexamplediscussedherepassesEMIconductedandradiated
emissions tests without using a Y1 capacitor between primary
and secondary. This is possible with the frequency jittering
featureofTOPSwitch-GXandcarefultransformerconstruction.
Shield windings are used in the transformer to reduce common
mode EMI currents. Transformer specifications are given in
Table 1.
Good cross-regulation of output voltages is achieved by careful
transformer construction and using a TL431 voltage regulator
instead of a Zener regulator.
The power supply uses a low cost RCD clamp with a slow
1N4007GP diode, which reduces EMI emissions and recycles
leakageenergy,increasingefficiency.Inputlinesensingprevents
reverse conduction of current in TOPSwitch-GX at very low
input voltages due to the 1N4007GP in the RCD clamp.
