LOW POWER PWM CONTROLLER FOR OFF-LINE BATTERY CHARGER
AP3700
General Description
The AP3700 is a green-mode pulse width modulation
(PWM) controller. It is specially designed for low
power applications such as off-line battery chargers,
where the needs for low standby power, space saving
and low cost are all required. In a battery charger rated
5V/1A, the maximum standby power is only 0.18Watt.
In normal operation, the AP3700 switches on and off at
a fixed switching frequency of 60 kHz. With a current
limit capability of 420mA, the AP3700 can directly
drive the emitter of high voltage NPN transistor or the
source of MOSFET. When output power falls below a
given level, the IC enters skip cycle mode to reduce
power consumption.
The AP3700 also features under-voltage lockout, over-
current and short circuit protections.
The AP3700 is available in TO-92 package.
