NCP1379
Quasi-Resonant
Current-Mode Controller for
High-Power Universal
Off-line Supplies
The NCP1379 hosts a high−performance circuitry aimed to
powering quasi−resonant converters. Capitalizing on a proprietary
valley−lockout system, the controller shifts gears and reduces the
switching frequency as the power loading becomes lighter. This
results in a stable operation despite switching events always occurring
in the drain−source valley. This system works down to the 4
th
valley
and toggles to a variable frequency mode beyond, ensuring an
excellent standby power performance.
The controller includes an Over Power Protection circuit which
clamps the delivered power at high−line. Safety−wise, a fixed internal
timer relies on the feedback voltage to detect a fault. Once the timer
elapses, the controller stops and enters auto−recovery mode, ensuring
a low duty−cycle burst operation. To further improve the safety of the
power supply, the NCP1379 features a pin to implement a combined
brown−out/overvoltage protection.
Particularly well suited for TVs power supply applications, the
controller features a low startup voltage allowing the use of an
auxiliary power supply to power the device.

Function
Zero Crossing Detection
Adjust the over power protection
Pin Description
Connected to the auxiliary winding, this pin detects the core reset
event.
Also, injecting a negative voltage smaller than 0.3 V on this pin will
perform over power protection.
Hooking an optocoupler collector to this pin will allow regulation.
This pin monitors the primary peak.
The controller ground
The driver’s output to an external MOSFET
This pin is connected to an external auxiliary voltage.
This pin observes the HV rail and protects the circuit in case of low
main conditions. It also offers a way to latch the circuit in case of over
voltage event.
A capacitor connected to this pin acts as the timing capacitor in fold-
back mode.
