PUMP EXPRESS

COMPATIBLE AC/DC PSR CONTROLLER
Description
The AP3790 is a high accuracy and low cost switching mode power
supply controller to drive power bipolar transistor for battery
charger/adapter applications. The controller regulates the output
voltage and current in the primary side by piece-wise Pulse
Frequency Modulation (p-PFM) in discontinuous conduction mode
(DCM). The controller uses adaptive source current to optimize
driving current to reduce driving loss. The system operating frequency
reduces linearly from heavy load to light load in each interval of the p-
PFM, and enters constant current mode when the load current is
equal to the maximum system output current.
The output voltage of AP3790 can be adjusted based on the patterns
of load current aligned to MTK Pump Express protocol.
The AP3790 provides operating frequency Jitter function from light to
full load range to improve the power supply EMI performance. The
AP3790 also has built-in fixed cable voltage drop compensation (6%
of nominal system output voltage) and adjustable line voltage
compensation.
The AP3790 can work individually to achieve Ultra-Low standby
power under 5V output.
The AP3790 is packaged in SO-8.

Function
A capacitor is connected to this pin to form a low pass filter for cable voltage drop
compensation, audio noise suppression and detecting the patterns of load current to
change the output voltage and current
The ground of the controller
The CV and CC regulation are realized base on the voltage sampling of this pin
VCC supply pin for the controller. A capacitor with low ESR should be placed as
close as possible to this pin
Current senses pin of IC. The CS pin will turn off the power transistor when the CS
pin voltage reaches turn off threshold.
The OUT pin is used to drive the external power transistor
