DESCRIPTION
This highly integrated PWM controller is
enhanced to provide low standby-power and stronger
protection features. In standby mode, the PWM
frequency is linearly reduced to cut power consumption,
and to provide a stable output voltage. The BiCMOS
fabrication process enables reducing the start-up
current to 30uA and the operating current to 3mA. This
results in increased power conversion efficiency.
During normal operation, the SG6840 acts as a fixed
frequency PWM controller with a programmable PWM
frequency. The PWM frequency can be controlled by
changing an external resistor.
The patented green-mode function reduces the
PWM frequency in response to decreases in the output
load. This function dramatically cuts power losses
under zero-load and light-load conditions, which helps
the power supply meet even the most stringent
international
power
conservation
regulations.
Proprietary synchronized slope compensation ensures
the stability of the current loop under continuous-mode
operation.
Built-in line-voltage compensation maintains a
constant output power limit over a wide range of AC
input voltages. An NTC thermistor is applied to sense
the ambient temperature to provide over temperature
protection. The SG6840 is available in 8-pin DIP and
SO packages.

Description
Ground.
Feedback. The FB pin provides the information used to regulate the power supply.
The PWM duty cycle is controlled by the FB pin.
The start-up current input. A start-up resistor is connected from the line-input to this
pin. For an off-line converter, a typical resistance would be 1.5M. The start-up resistor
can be adjusted to vary the line voltage compensation. The line voltage compensation
is used to maintain a constant output power limit.
Reference setting. The typical voltage is 1.3V. To generate a constant current for the

Ri
Reference Setting
SG6840, connecting a resistor to ground is suggested. Increasing the resistance will
decrease the current and reduce the switching frequency. Typically, Ri = 26KΩ.
Over temperature protection. A constant current is sourced out. An NTC thermistor is
connected from this pin to ground to sense the temperature. When the voltage of this
pin goes below the limit, over temperature protection will be enabled.
Current sense. This pin senses the voltage across a sense resistor. When the voltage
reaches the internal threshold, PWM output is disabled. In this manner, the controller
provides over current protection.
Power supply.
The totem-pole output driver for driving the power MOSFET.
