onsemi NCP1271D100R2G

The NCP1271D100R2G, produced by onsemi, is a Soft-Skip™ Mode Standby PWM Controller designed for high-efficiency and low-standby power consumption in AC-DC converters. This controller is part of the NCP1271 series, which is pin-to-pin compatible with the existing NCP120X series. It features integrated high-voltage startup, adjustable skip level, and internal frequency jittering for improved electromagnetic interference (EMI) performance. The device is particularly suited for applications requiring ruggedness, low component costs, and minimal acoustic noise.

• Fixed-Frequency Current-Mode Operation: With ramp compensation and skip cycle in standby condition for improved stability and efficiency.
• Timer-Based Fault Protection: Provides improved overload detection by safely shutting down the application if an abnormally large load is applied for more than 130 ms.
• Soft-Skip Mode: Minimizes standby low-frequency acoustic noise by ramping the peak current envelope whenever skip is activated.
• Adjustable Skip Level: Allows the power level at which the application enters skip to be fully adjusted, optimizing standby power for various applications.
• Internal High-Voltage Startup Current Source: Eliminates the need for an external startup biasing circuit, minimizing standby power loss and saving PCB space.
• Internal Latch for Protection: Provides easy implementation of overvoltage and overtemperature protection with a noise filter to reduce false triggering.
• Frequency Jittering: Softens the EMI signature for better electromagnetic compatibility.
• Current-Mode Operation with Compensation Ramp: Offers better transient response and inherent cycle-by-cycle primary current limiting, with an adjustable compensation ramp to prevent instability.
• 80% Maximum Duty Cycle Protection: Limits the maximum on time of the drive to protect the power MOSFET from being continuously on.

• AC-DC Adapters for Notebooks and LCD Monitors
• Offline Battery Chargers
• Consumer Electronic Appliances such as Set-Top Boxes (STB), DVD, and DVDR
