Product Specification
Highly-Integrated Green-Mode PWM Controller
SG6846
the switching frequency under light-load conditions.
Under zero-load conditions, the power supply enters
burst-mode. This completely shuts off PWM output. The
output restarts just before the supply voltage drops below
the UVLO lower limit. This green-mode function enables
power supplies to easily meet international power
conservation requirements.
The SG6846 is especially designed for SMPS with
surge-current output. It is incorporated with a two-level
OCP function. Besides the cycle-by-cycle current limiting,
if the switching current is higher than 2/3 of the
peak-current threshold for a delay time, over-current
protection will be activated such that the SG6846 will be
totally shutdown. Other protection functions include: AC
input brownout protection with hysteresis, and VDD
over-voltage protection. For over-temperature protection,
an external NTC thermistor can be applied to sense the
ambient temperature. When OCP, VDD OVP, or OTP are
activated, an internal latch circuit is used to latch-off the
controller. The latch will reset when the VDD supply is
removed.
Other features of this controller include: Built-in
synchronized slope compensation, proprietary internal
compensation for constant output power limit over
universal AC input range. Also, the gate output is clamped
at 18V to protect the external MOSFET from over-voltage
damage.
The SG6846 series controllers are available in both
8-pin DIP and SO packages.

DESCRIPTION
The highly integrated SG6846 series of PWM
controllers provides several features to enhance the
performance of flyback converters. To minimize standby
power consumption, a proprietary green-mode function
provides off-time modulation to continuously decrease

Description
Ground.
The signal from the external compensation circuit is fed into this pin. This FB pin and the
current-sense signal from Pin 6 determine the PWM duty cycle.
Line-voltage detection. The line-voltage detection is used for brownout protection with
hysteresis. Constant output power limit over universal AC input range is also achieved using
this VIN signal. It is suggested to add low pass filter to filter out line ripple on bulk capacitor.
A resistor from the RI pin to ground will generate a reference current source inside SG6846.
This determines the switching frequency. Increasing the resistance will reduce the switching
frequency. Using a 26kΩ resistor Ri results in a 65kHz switching frequency.
For over-temperature protection. An external NTC thermistor is connected from this pin to
GND pin. The impedance of the NTC will decrease at high temperatures. Once the voltage
of the RT pin drops below a threshold, PWM output will be disabled.
Current sense. The sensed voltage is used for peak-current-mode control and
cycle-by-cycle current limiting. If the switching current is higher than 2/3 of the peak-current
threshold for longer than 96ms, over-current protection will be activated. This two-level OCP
feature is especially suitable for SMPS with surge current output.
Power Supply. The internal protection circuit will disable PWM output when VDD over
voltage.
The totem-pole output driver for the power MOSFET. A soft driving waveform is
implemented for improved EMI.
