Panjit High-Efficiency Resonant Flyback Controller

Quick Overview

Panjit’s resonant flyback controller features an integrated high-side 650 V/4 A 1.2 Ω MOSFET. Unlike traditional flyback systems that use a passive snubber circuit (lossy snubber), this controller employs an active snubber circuit (lossless snubber) to more efficiently utilize extra energy from leakage inductance and stray components, enabling energy recycling. Designed as an isolated flyback power-supply controller, it provides Constant Voltage (CV) regulation through an optical coupler, enhancing transient response to large load changes. The device processes feedback from an optocoupler and an auxiliary flyback winding to achieve precise control of output voltage and current.

Panjit's flyback controller is ideal for many applications like power adapters and auxiliary power

Panjit’s resonant flyback controller employs a unique control strategy that ensures both the high-side and low-side MOSFETs achieve nearly zero voltage switching (ZVS). This minimizes switching losses and optimizes efficiency. By utilizing SJMOS power devices and traditional flyback system materials, it enables the creation of high-efficiency, high-power-density flyback power systems. Additionally, the controller is compatible with GaN and SiC technologies for higher-frequency power system designs.

Quasi-resonant switching, compared to traditional continuous and discontinuous modes in a flyback converter, reduces turn-on losses at the power switch, thereby increasing efficiency and lowering device temperatures. The drawback of higher losses at light loads is mitigated by the frequency-clamp circuit in modern controllers and integrated power switches.

A crucial aspect of power supply unit (PSU) design is delivering power safely and efficiently. Panjit products are commonly used on both the primary and secondary sides of power systems. Power factor correction (PFC) structures are essential for improving power quality and must adhere to international standards such as Energy Star, 80 Plus®, and ErP Lot6. When designing a PSU circuit, it is vital to consider the power factor and ensure the PFC structure meets the required standards.

The combination IC integrates power factor correction (PFC) and quasi-resonant flyback functionalities, essential for creating a compact and highly efficient switched-mode power supply for adapter applications. The PFC stage achieves near-unity power factor while operating in Critical Conduction Mode (CrM) with a maximum frequency clamp. It includes all necessary features for constructing a robust and compact PFC stage while minimizing external components. The quasi-resonant forward circuit, utilizing transformer leakage inductance and a resonant capacitor, generates nearly sinusoidal currents during the switch on-time, significantly reducing primary switching stress.

A Power Supply Unit (PSU) is the primary power source for electronic devices. With the increasing emphasis on energy saving and carbon reduction, international regulations on product power consumption are becoming stricter. Whether for power chargers for low-voltage mobile devices or high-performance UPS and server power supplies, the requirements for devices include low power consumption, high performance, and high reliability, regardless of whether an AC-DC conversion topology or DC-DC brick power is used. Panjit offers a comprehensive range of discrete devices essential for various power supply design solutions. Panjit's SMT bridge and low FOM MOSFET products enhance power density, while Panjit's ESD protection components and TVS protect power management ICs from damage caused by external surges.

DRFLYBACK-A

An AC-DC controller is used to convert AC power into stable DC power. Initially, the AC input is rectified into a high DC voltage. A flyback controller, a simple switch-mode converter for AC to DC, functions similarly to a buck-boost converter but utilizes separate inductors to form a transformer. This transformer allows for input and output isolation. The flyback controller is versatile, suitable for applications ranging from small charger adapters (power adapters) to power supplies up to 150W.

The basic structure is a flyback design that uses transformer leakage inductance to create a resonance-like effect. This resonance results in a sine wave voltage waveform, enabling the MOSFET to be turned on at the trough of the sine wave. At this point, the VDS across the MOSFET's drain and source is minimized, reducing switching loss and achieving high efficiency. As a soft-switching converter, it requires only small EMI filters.

Panjit's QR Flyback controller integrates a high-side MOSFET and supports switching MOSFETs to operate in Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) mode. With its advanced features, the Panjit QR Flyback controller can support devices with power ratings up to 150W.
