MARKING
Housed in SO−8 or DIP8 package, the NCP1201 enhances the
previous NCP1200 series by offering a reduced optocoupler current
with additional brownout detection protection (BOK). Similarly, the
circuit allows the implementation of complete off−line AC/DC
adapters, battery charger or Switch Mode Power Supplies (SMPS)
where standby power is a key parameter.
The NCP1201 features an efficient protection circuitry, whenever in
presence of a fault (e.g. failed optocoupler, overcurrent condition, etc.)
the control permanently disables the output pulses to avoid subsequent
damage to the system. The IC only restarts when the user cycles the
mains power supply.
With the low power internal structure, operating at a fixed 60 or 100
kHz, the controller supplies itself from the high−voltage rail, avoiding
the need of an auxiliary winding. This feature naturally eases the
designer’s task in battery charger applications. Finally, current−mode
control provides an excellent audio−susceptibility and inherent
pulse−by−pulsecontrol.

value, e.g. the output power demand diminishes, the IC automatically
enters the skip cycle mode and can provide excellent efficiency under
light load conditions. The skip mode is designed to operate at
relatively lower peak current so that acoustic noise commonly takes
place will not happen with NCP1201.
