Primary Side PWM Controller
Preliminary Specification
Features
Description
The AS2208 is a simplified pulse width modulation control-
ler, offering similar functionality as that of the AS3842.
Based on the AS2214, the AS2208 provides the additional
features of low startup current and overvoltage latching,
making it a good solution for adapter applications.
The PWM function is controlled by the current sense com-
parator for normal current mode control. The COMP pin,
which serves as an input to the current sense comparator,
provides a 1 mA current source which can be tied directly to
the control loop optocoupler. The output stage is a high
current totem pole output that sees only 85 ns delay from the
PWM comparator.
The AS2208 requires only 100
µA
of startup current. The
undervoltage lockout (UVLO) thresholds are nominally 14V
for turn on and 8 V for turn off. The VREG pin, based on a
trimmed bandgap reference, provides a temperature com-
pensated 5 V to loads of up to 50 mA. The oscillator
discharge current is trimmed to provide guaranteed duty
cycle clamping.

Description

COMP
This is the inverting input to the PWM comparator. A divided and level shifted
representation of this voltage is compared to the ISNS input to determine OUT duty
cycle. A 1 mA current source is provided as a pull-up for an optocoupler.
A voltage proportional to inductor current is connected to this pin. The PWM uses this
information to terminate the gate drive of the output.
Oscillator frequency and maximum duty cycle are set by connecting a resistor (R
T
) to
VREG and a capacitor (C
T
) to ground.
This pin latches OUT low when pulled above 2.5 V. The latch can be reset by pulling
OV above 4 V then back to ground.
Circuit common ground.
This totem pole output is designed to directly drive a power MOSFET switch capable of
sourcing and sinking peak currents up to 1 A.
Positive supply voltage for the IC.
