NCP1378
PWM Current−Mode
Controller for Free−Running
Quasi−Resonant Operation
The NCP1378 combines a true current mode modulator and
a demagnetization detector to ensure full borderline/critical
Conduction Mode in any load/line conditions and minimum drain
voltage switching (Quasi−Resonant operation). Due to its inherent
skip cycle capability, the controller enters burst mode as soon as the
power demand falls below a predetermined level. As this happens at
low peak current, no audible noise can be heard. An internal 8.0 ms
timer prevents the free−run frequency to exceed 100 kHz (therefore
below the 150 kHz CISPR−22 EMI starting limit), while the skip
adjustment capability lets the user select the frequency at which the
burst foldback takes place.

The transformer core reset detection is done through an auxiliary
winding which, brought via a dedicated pin, also enables fast Over
Voltage Protection (OVP). Once an OVP has been detected, the IC
permanently latches off.
The NCP1378 also features an efficient protective circuitry that, in
presence of an overcurrent condition, disables the output pulses and
enters a safe burst mode, trying to restart. Once the default has gone,
the device auto−recovers. Finally an internal 1.0 ms Soft−Start
eliminates the traditional startup stress.
