Main characteristics and circuit description 1 AN3329 Main characteristics and circuit description The main features of the SMPS are: ● Universal input mains range: 90 ÷ 264 Vac - frequency 45 ÷ 65 Hz ● Output voltage 1: 24 V ± 5 % at 6 A for backlight and audio supply ● Output voltage 2: 12 V ± 3 % at 2 A for TV panel supply ● Output voltage 3: 5 V ± 2 % at 2 A for microprocessor supply ● Mains harmonics: acc.
AN3329 Main characteristics and circuit description Resonant power stage The downstream converter features the ST L6599A, which embeds all the functions needed to drive properly the resonant converter with 50 % fixed duty cycle and variable frequency. The converter makes use of a transformer designed with the integrated magnetic approach, using the primary leakage as the resonant series inductance and the magnetizing inductance as the resonant shunt inductance.

AN3329 2 Efficiency measurement Efficiency measurement Table 1 shows the overall efficiency, measured at different mains voltages. The full load efficiency is 90.09 % at 115 Vac, and 91.85 % at 230 Vac. Both values are considerably high and maintained high even decreasing the load as reported in Table 1. Measurements are also reported in the graph of Figure 3. Table 1. Overall efficiency measured at different AC input voltages Load = 100 % 5V 12 V 24 V Pout Pin Eff.
Efficiency measurement AN3329 The average efficiency has been calculated according to ENERGY STAR 2.0 criteria. Results are summarized in Figure 3 and 4. Figure 3. Overall efficiency vs. output power Figure 4. $9* (IILFLHQF\ > @ 2YHUDOO (IILFLHQF\ > @ Average efficiency acc.
AN3329 Harmonic content measurement 3 Harmonic content measurement The main purpose of a PFC pre-regulator is the input current shaping to reduce the harmonic content below the limits of the relevant regulations. This demonstration board has been tested according to the European standard EN61000-3-2 Class-D and Japanese standard JEITA-MITI Class-D, at full load and 75 W input power, at both the nominal input voltage mains. Figure 7 to Figure 10 show the test results.
Harmonic content measurement AN3329 InFigure 11 and 12 the AC input voltage and current waveform at nominal input mains and full load are reported for reference. Figure 11. Input voltage and current at 100 Vac, full load CH3: AC input voltage CH4: input current 12/47 Figure 12.
AN3329 4 Functional check Functional check Standby supply Some salient waveforms of the standby supply during full load operation are reported in Figure 13 and 14. This converter is based on the Viper27LN, a device integrating the controller and the MOSFET in a single DIP-7 package. The Viper27LN version operates in fixed frequency mode at about 60 kHz, and frequency jitter technique is implemented to reduce EMI noise.
Functional check AN3329 Figure 15. Standby supply waveforms at 400 Vdc, full load CH1: DRAIN (pin #8) CH3: CONT (pin #3) CH2: VDD (pin #2) CH4: FB (pin #4) Figure 16. Standby supply output rectifiers PIV at 400 Vdc, full load CH3: PIV D22 CH4: PIV D18 In Figure 17 the 5 V standby output voltage ripple has been captured during operation at 115 Vac of the standby converter only. Ripple and noise measured at full load are very limited.
AN3329 Functional check Figure 19 and Figure 20 illustrate the waveforms during light load operation. Viper27LN operates in burst-mode, with just a few pulses per burst, minimizing switching losses and therefore improving efficiency under light load operation, making it suitable for equipment with low standby consumption requirements. Figure 19. Standby supply burst mode Figure 20.
Functional check AN3329 and switching starts again. This protection and restart sequence lasts as long as the OVP condition is removed. It is important to highlight that the Viper27LN OVP protection, thanks to the internal logic, ensures a stable OVP intervention point, independent of the output load, even if the voltage sensing is done on auxiliary winding at primary side.
AN3329 Functional check In Figure 26 details of Viper27LN operation at short detection is captured; once an output short-circuit is detected, an internal current source charges the device internal circuitry and stops the auxiliary converter operation until the VDD voltage drops down to VDD_RESTART (4.5 V). At that time the internal HV current source is activated and charges the VDD capacitor until it reaches the VDDon threshold, then the Viper27LN restarts switching via a soft-start cycle.
Functional check AN3329 Power factor corrector stage Figure 29 shows the PFC MOSFET's drain voltage, inductor current, and voltages on the CS (#4) and MULT (#3) pins along a line half-period at 115Vac. Low current distortion and high power factor are achieved as the peak inductor current waveform follows the MULT pin. THD (total harmonic distortion) is considerably reduced by the L6564 THD optimizer. In Figure 30 the same signals are captured at the top of the input sine wave.

AN3329 Functional check Resonant stage Some waveforms relevant to the resonant stage during steady-state operation are reported in Figure 37, 38, 39, 40, and 41. The switching frequency at full load and nominal input voltage is around 75 kHz, in order to achieve a good trade-off between transformer losses and size. Figure 37 shows the resonant ZVS operation.

Output rectifiers PIV waveforms CH1: D4 anode voltage CH3: D9A anode voltage CH2: D11 anode voltage CH4: D9B anode voltage No load operation In Figure 40 and 41 operation at no load is shown. This check has been done for reference only, as typically a TV SMPS never works in such conditions. As seen, PFC is working in burst-mode, while the resonant stage is operating in continuous switching.
AN3329 Functional check Dynamic load operation and output voltage regulation Figure 42 and 43 show the output voltage regulation in the case of load transients on both the resonant stage outputs. The waveforms have been captured applying a load transient from 0 to full load to one output while the other is delivering full load.

Functional check AN3329 Startup Figure 50 shows waveforms during startup at 115 Vac and full load of PFC and resonant stages. It is possible to note the sequence of the two stages; once the on/off signal is asserted high, voltage on C44 increases up to the Vcc turn-on thresholds of the L6564 and L6599A. The PFC starts first and its output voltage starts increasing from the mains rectified voltage to its nominal value.

Functional check AN3329 Mains sags/dips Figure 56 and 57 show the converter behavior in the case of half-cycle (8.3 ms) or a complete cycle (16.6 ms) mains dip. As can be noted, in both cases the PFC output voltage drops but the L6599A still works correctly, and output voltages do not show any disturbance, therefore demonstrating a good immunity of the circuit against mains dips. Figure 56. Half cycle mains dip at full load and Figure 57.
AN3329 5 Conducted emission pre-compliance test Conducted emission pre-compliance test Figure 58, 59, 60, and 61 are the peak measurements of the conducted emission noise at full load and nominal mains voltages. The limits shown in the diagrams are EN55022 ClassB, which is the most popular norm for domestic equipment and has more severe limits compared to Class-A, dedicated to IT technology equipment. As visible in the diagrams, in all test conditions the measurements are far below the limits. Figure 58.
