AP3981B
PRIMARY SIDE REGULATED POWER SWITCHER
Description
Pin Assignments
The AP3981B is a high performance power switcher integrated with a
primary side regulation controller and an N-channel power MOSFET.
It can be used for battery charger and adaptor applications, accurate
Constant Voltage (CV) and Constant Current (CC) can be achieved
without an opto-coupler and secondary control circuitry.

The AP3981B operates in Pulse Frequency Modulation (PFM) mode
and peak current Amplitude Modulation (AM) mode to form a fine tune
frequency curve within the whole power range. Therefore, the
AP3981B can achieve high average efficiency and improve audible
noise.

The AP3981B provides comprehensive protections without additional
circuitry. It contains VCC over voltage protection, output over voltage
protection, output under voltage protection, output short circuit
protection, cycle-by-cycle current limit, open loop protection, and
internal OTP, etc.
