NCP1381
LowStandby High
Performance PWM
Controller
Housed in a SO14 package, the NCP1381 includes everything
needed to build rugged and efficient QuasiResonant (QR) Switching
Power Supplies. When powered by a frontend Power Factor
Correction circuitry, the NCP1381 automatically disconnects the PFC
controller in low output loading conditions (with an adjustable level),
thus improving the standby power. This is particularly well suited for
medium to high power offline applications, e.g. notebook adapters.
When the current setpoint falls below a given value, e.g. the output
power demand diminishes, the IC automatically enters the socalled
skip cycle mode and provides excellent efficiency at light loads.
Because this occurs at an adjustable low peak current together with a
proprietary SoftSkip technique, no acoustic noise takes place. Skip
cycle also offers the ability to easily select the maximum switching
frequency at which foldback and standby take place.
The NCP1381 also features several efficient protection options like
a) a shortcircuit / overload detection independent of the auxiliary
voltage b) an autorecovery brownout detection and c) an input to
externally latch the circuit in case of Overvoltage Protection or Over
Temperature Protection.
