In addition to the three terminal TOPSwitch features, such as
the high voltage start-up, the cycle-by-cycle current limiting,
loop compensation circuitry, auto-restart, thermal shutdown,
the TOPSwitch-GX incorporates many additional functions that
reduce system cost, increase power supply performance and
design flexibility. A patented high voltage CMOS technology
allows both the high voltage power MOSFET and all the low
voltage control circuitry to be cost effectively integrated onto
a single monolithic chip.

Three terminals, FREQUENCY, LINE-SENSE, and EXTER-

one terminal MULTI-FUNCTION (available in P or G
Package) have been added to implement some of the new
functions. These terminals can be connected to the SOURCE
pin to operate the TOPSwitch-GX in a TOPSwitch-like three
terminal mode. However, even in this three terminal mode, the
TOPSwitch-GX offers many new transparent features that do
not require any external components:

eliminates output overshoot in most applications.
2. DCMAX of 78% allows smaller input storage capacitor, lower

3. Frequency reduction at light loads lowers the switching
losses and maintains good cross regulation in multiple
output supplies.
4. Higher switching frequency of 132 kHz reduces the
transformer size with no noticeable impact on EMI.
5. Frequency jittering reduces EMI.

The pin can also be used as a remote ON/OFF and a
synchronization input.
The EXTERNAL CURRENT LIMIT (X) pin is usually used to
reduce the current limit externally to a value close to the operat-
ing peak current, by connecting the pin to SOURCE through a
resistor. This pin can also be used as a remote ON/OFF and a
synchronization input in both modes. See Table 2 and Figure 11.
7. Packages with omitted pins and lead forming provide large
drain creepage distance.
8. Tighter absolute tolerances and smaller temperature vari-
ations on switching frequency, current limit and PWM gain.
For the P or G packages the LINE-SENSE and EXTERNAL
CURRENT LIMIT pin functions are combined on one MULTI-
FUNCTION (M) pin. However, some of the functions become
mutually exclusive as shown in Table 3.
The LINE-SENSE (L) pin is usually used for line sensing by
connecting a resistor from this pin to the rectified DC high
voltage bus to implement line overvoltage (OV), under-voltage
(UV) and line feed forward with DCMAX reduction. In this
mode, the value of the resistor determines the OV/UV thresholds
and the DCMAX is reduced linearly starting from a line voltage
above the under-voltage threshold. See Table 2 and Figure 11.
The FREQUENCY (F) pin in the Y, R or F package sets the
switching frequency to the default value of 132 kHz when
connected to SOURCE pin. A half frequency option of 66 kHz
can be chosen by connecting this pin to CONTROL pin
instead. Leaving this pin open is not recommended.

TOP242-250
CONTROL (C) Pin Operation
SOURCE through resistor RE as shown in Figure 2. This
current flowing through RE controls the duty cycle of the power
MOSFET to provide closed loop regulation. The shunt
regulator has a finite low output impedance ZC that sets the
gain of the error amplifier when used in a primary feedback
configuration. The dynamic impedance ZC of the CONTROL
pin together with the external CONTROL pin capacitance sets
the dominant pole for the control loop.
The CONTROL pin is a low impedance node that is capable of
receiving a combined supply and feedback current. During
normal operation, a shunt regulator is used to separate the feed-
back signal from the supply current. CONTROL pin voltage
VC is the supply voltage for the control circuitry including the
MOSFET gate driver. An external bypass capacitor closely
connected between the CONTROL and SOURCE pins is
required to supply the instantaneous gate drive current. The
total amount of capacitance connected to this pin also sets the
auto-restart timing as well as control loop compensation.
When a fault condition such as an open loop or shorted output
prevents the flow of an external current into the CONTROL
pin, the capacitor on the CONTROL pin discharges towards
4.8 V. At 4.8 V, auto-restart is activated which turns the output
MOSFET off and puts the control circuitry in a low current
standby mode. The high-voltage current source turns on and
charges the external capacitance again. A hysteretic internal
supply under-voltage comparator keeps VC within a window
of typically 4.8 V to 5.8 V by turning the high-voltage current
source on and off as shown in Figure 8. The auto-restart
circuit has a divide-by-eight counter which prevents the out-
put MOSFET from turning on again until eight discharge/charge
cycles have elapsed. This is accomplished by enabling the
output MOSFET only when the divide-by-eight counter reaches
full count (S7). The counter effectively limits TOPSwitch-GX
power dissipation by reducing the auto-restart duty cycle to
typically 4%. Auto-restart mode continues until output
voltage regulation is again achieved through closure of the
feedback loop.
When rectified DC high voltage is applied to the DRAIN pin
during start-up, the MOSFET is initially off, and the
CONTROL pin capacitor is charged through a switched high
voltage current source connected internally between the DRAIN
and CONTROL pins. When the CONTROL pin voltage VC
reaches approximately 5.8 V, the control circuitry is activated
and the soft-start begins. The soft-start circuit gradually
increases the duty cycle of the MOSFET from zero to the maxi-
mum value over approximately 10 ms. If no external feedback/
supply current is fed into the CONTROL pin by the end of the
soft-start, the high voltage current source is turned off and the
CONTROL pin will start discharging in response to the supply
current drawn by the control circuitry. If the power supply is
designed properly, and no fault condition such as open loop or
shorted output exists, the feedback loop will close, providing
external CONTROL pin current, before the CONTROL pin
voltage has had a chance to discharge to the lower threshold
voltage of approximately 4.8 V (internal supply under-voltage
lockout threshold). When the externally fed current charges
the CONTROL pin to the shunt regulator voltage of 5.8 V, cur-
rent in excess of the consumption of the chip is shunted to

Frequency
The nominal switching frequency of 132 kHz was chosen to
minimize transformer size while keeping the fundamental EMI
frequency below 150 kHz. The FREQUENCY pin (available
only in Y, R or F package), when shorted to the CONTROL
pin, lowers the switching frequency to 66 kHz (half frequency)
which may be preferable in some cases such as noise sensitive
video applications or a high efficiency standby mode. Other-
wise, the FREQUENCY pin should be connected to the
SOURCE pin for the default 132 kHz.

To further reduce the EMI level, the switching frequency is
jittered (frequency modulated) by approximately ±4 kHz at

the typical improvement of EMI measurements with frequency
jitter.
minimum frequency is typically 30 kHz and 15 kHz for
132 kHz and 66 kHz operation, respectively.
This feature allows a power supply to operate at lower
frequency at light loads thus lowering the switching losses while
maintaining good cross regulation performance and low
output ripple.
Pulse Width Modulator and Maximum Duty Cycle
The pulse width modulator implements voltage mode control
by driving the output MOSFET with a duty cycle inversely
proportional to the current into the CONTROL pin that is in
excess of the internal supply current of the chip (see Figure 7).
The excess current is the feedback error signal that appears
across RE (see Figure 2). This signal is filtered by an RC
network with a typical corner frequency of 7 kHz to reduce the
effect of switching noise in the chip supply current generated
by the MOSFET gate driver. The filtered error signal is
compared with the internal oscillator sawtooth waveform to
generate the duty cycle waveform. As the control current
increases, the duty cycle decreases. A clock signal from the
oscillator sets a latch which turns on the output MOSFET. The
pulse width modulator resets the latch, turning off the output
MOSFET. Note that a minimum current must be driven into
the CONTROL pin before the duty cycle begins to change.
Error Amplifier
The shunt regulator can also perform the function of an error
amplifier in primary side feedback applications. The shunt
regulator voltage is accurately derived from a temperature-
compensated bandgap reference. The gain of the error ampli-
fier is set by the CONTROL pin dynamic impedance. The
CONTROL pin clamps external circuit signals to the VC
voltage level. The CONTROL pin current in excess of the
supply current is separated by the shunt regulator and flows
through RE as a voltage error signal.
On-chip Current Limit with External Programmability
The cycle-by-cycle peak drain current limit circuit uses the out-
put MOSFET ON-resistance as a sense resistor. A current limit
comparator compares the output MOSFET on-state drain to
source voltage, VDS(ON) with a threshold voltage. High drain
current causes VDS(ON) to exceed the threshold voltage and turns
the output MOSFET off until the start of the next clock cycle.
The current limit comparator threshold voltage is temperature
compensated to minimize the variation of the current limit due to
temperature related changes in RDS(ON) of the output MOSFET.
The default current limit of TOPSwitch-GX is preset internally.
However, with a resistor connected between EXTERNAL
CURRENT LIMIT (X) pin (Y, R or F package) or MULTI-
FUNCTION (M) pin (P or G package) and SOURCE pin,
current limit can be programmed externally to a lower level
between 30% and 100% of the default current limit. Please refer
to the graphs in the typical performance characteristics section
for the selection of the resistor value. By setting current limit
low, a larger TOPSwitch-GX than necessary for the power
required can be used to take advantage of the lower RDS(ON) for
higher efficiency/smaller heat sinking requirements. With a
second resistor connected between the EXTERNAL
The maximum duty cycle, DCMAX,is set at a default maximum
value of 78% (typical). However, by connecting the LINE-
SENSE or MULTI-FUNCTION pin (depending on the
package) to the rectified DC high voltage bus through a
resistor with appropriate value, the maximum duty cycle can
be made to decrease from 78% to 38% (typical) as shown in
Figure 11 when input line voltage increases (see line feed
forward with DCMAX reduction).
Light Load Frequency Reduction
The pulse width modulator duty cycle reduces as the load at
the power supply output decreases. This reduction in duty cycle
is proportional to the current flowing into the CONTROL pin.
As the CONTROL pin current increases, the duty cycle
decreases linearly towards a duty cycle of 10%. Below 10%
duty cycle, to maintain high efficiency at light loads, the
frequency is also reduced linearly until a minimum frequency
is reached at a duty cycle of 0% (refer to Figure 7). The

FUNCTION (M) pin (P or G package) and the rectified DC
high voltage bus, the current limit is reduced with increasing
line voltage, allowing a true power limiting operation against
line variation to be implemented. When using an RCD clamp,
this power limiting technique reduces maximum clamp
voltage at high line. This allows for higher reflected voltage
designs as well as reducing clamp dissipation.
input voltage operating range (UV low threshold). If the UV
low threshold is reached during operation without the power
supply losing regulation the device will turn off and stay off
until UV (high threshold) has been reached again. If the power
supply loses regulation before reaching the UV low threshold,
the device will enter auto-restart. At the end of each auto-
restart cycle (S7), the UV comparator is enabled. If the UV high
threshold is not exceeded the MOSFET will be disabled during
the next cycle (see Figure 8). The UV feature can be disabled
independent of OV feature as shown in Figures 19 and 23.
The leading edge blanking circuit inhibits the current limit
comparator for a short time after the output MOSFET is turned
on. The leading edge blanking time has been set so that, if a
power supply is designed properly, current spikes caused by
primary-side capacitances and secondary-side rectifier reverse
recovery time should not cause premature termination of the
switching pulse.
Line Overvoltage Shutdown (OV)
The same resistor used for UV also sets an overvoltage thresh-
old which, once exceeded, will force TOPSwitch-GX output
into off-state. The ratio of OV and UV thresholds is preset at
4.5 as can be seen in Figure 11. When the MOSFET is off, the
rectified DC high voltage surge capability is increased to the
voltage rating of the MOSFET (700 V), due to the absence of
the reflected voltage and leakage spikes on the drain. A small
amount of hysteresis is provided on the OV threshold to
prevent noise triggering. The OV feature can be disabled
independent of the UV feature as shown in Figures 18 and 32.
The current limit is lower for a short period after the leading
edge blanking time as shown in Figure 52. This is due to
dynamic characteristics of the MOSFET. To avoid triggering
the current limit in normal operation, the drain current wave-
form should stay within the envelope shown.
Line Under-Voltage Detection (UV)
Line Feed Forward with DCMAX Reduction
At power up, UV keeps TOPSwitch-GX off until the input line
voltage reaches the under voltage threshold. At power down,
UV prevents auto-restart attempts after the output goes out of
regulation. This eliminates power down glitches caused by
the slow discharge of large input storage capacitor present in
applications such as standby supplies. A single resistor
connected from the LINE-SENSE pin (Y, R or F package) or
MULTI-FUNCTION pin (P or G package) to the rectified DC
high voltage bus sets UV threshold during power up. Once the
power supply is successfully turned on, the UV threshold is
lowered to 40% of the initial UV threshold to allow extended
The same resistor used for UV and OV also implements line
voltage feed forward which minimizes output line ripple and
reduces power supply output sensitivity to line transients. This
feed forward operation is illustrated in Figure 7 by the
different values of IL (Y, R or F package) or IM (P or G Pack-
age). Note that for the same CONTROL pin current, higher
line voltage results in smaller operating duty cycle. As an added
feature, the maximum duty cycle DCMAX is also reduced from
78% (typical) at a voltage slightly higher than the UV thresh-
old to 38% (typical) at the OV threshold (see Figures 7 and
11). Limiting DCMAX at higher line voltages helps prevent trans-

chosen to ensure that the power capability of the
TOPSwitch-GX is not restricted by this feature under normal
operation.
remotely turned on after entering this mode, it will initiate a
normal start-up sequence with soft-start the next time the
CONTROL pin reaches 5.8 V. In the worst case, the delay from
remote on to start-up can be equal to the full discharge/charge
cycle time of the CONTROL pin, which is approximately
125 ms for a 47 mF CONTROL pin capacitor. This
reduced consumption remote off mode can eliminate
expensive and unreliable in-line mechanical switches. It also
allows for microprocessor controlled turn-on and turn-off
sequences that may be required in certain applications such as
inkjet and laser printers.
Remote ON/OFF and Synchronization
TOPSwitch-GX can be turned on or off by controlling the current
into the LINE-SENSE pin or out from the EXTERNAL
CURRENT LIMIT pin (Y, R or F package) and into or out from
the MULTI-FUNCTION pin (P or G package) (see Figure 11).
In addition, the LINE-SENSE pin has a 1 V threshold compara-
tor connected at its input. This voltage threshold can also be used
to perform remote ON/OFF control. This allows easy implemen-
tation of remote ON/OFF control of TOPSwitch-GX in several
different ways. A transistor or an optocoupler output connected
between the EXTERNAL CURRENT LIMIT or LINE-SENSE
pins (Y, R or F package) or the MULTI-FUNCTION pin (P or G
package) and the SOURCE pin implements this function with
“active-on” (Figures 22, 29 and 36) while a transistor or an
optocoupler output connected between the LINE-SENSE pin
(Y, R or F package) or the MULTI-FUNCTION (P or G package)
pin and the CONTROL pin implements the function with
“active-off” (Figures 23 and 37).
Soft-Start
Two on-chip soft-start functions are activated at start-up with
a duration of 10 ms (typical). Maximum duty cycle starts from
0% and linearly increases to the default maximum of 78% at
the end of the 10 ms duration and the current limit starts from
about 85% and linearly increases to 100% at the end of the
10ms duration. In addition to start-up, soft-start is also
activated at each restart attempt during auto-restart and when
restarting after being in hysteretic regulation of CONTROL
pin voltage (VC), due to remote off or thermal shutdown
conditions. This effectively minimizes current and voltage
stresses on the output MOSFET, the clamp circuit and the
output rectifier during start-up. This feature also helps
minimize output overshoot and prevents saturation of the
transformer during start-up.
When a signal is received at the LINE-SENSE pin or the
EXTERNAL CURRENT LIMIT pin (Y, R or F package) or
the MULTI-FUNCTION pin (P or G package) to disable the
output through any of the pin functions such as OV, UV and
remote ON/OFF, TOPSwitch-GX always completes its current
switching cycle, as illustrated in Figure 10, before the output is
forced off. The internal oscillator is stopped slightly before the
end of the current cycle and stays there as long as the disable
signal exists. When the signal at the above pins changes state
from disable to enable, the internal oscillator starts the next
switching cycle. This approach allows the use of this pin to
synchronize TOPSwitch-GX to any external signal with a
frequency lower than its internal switching frequency.
Shutdown/Auto-Restart
To minimize TOPSwitch-GX power dissipation under fault
conditions, the shutdown/auto-restart circuit turns the power
supply on and off at an auto-restart duty cycle of typically 4%
if an out of regulation condition persists. Loss of regulation
interrupts the external current into the CONTROLpin. VC regu-
lation changes from shunt mode to the hysteretic auto-restart
mode as described in CONTROL pin operation section. When
the fault condition is removed, the power supply output
becomes regulated, VC regulation returns to shunt mode, and
normal operation of the power supply resumes.
As seen above, the remote ON/OFF feature allows the
TOPSwitch-GX to be turned on and off instantly, on a cycle-
by-cycle basis, with very little delay. However, remote
ON/OFF can also be used as a standby or power switch to turn
off the TOPSwitch-GX and keep it in a very low power
consumption state for indefinitely long periods. If the
TOPSwitch-GX is held in remote off state for long enough time
to allow the CONTROL pin to dishcharge to the internal
supply under-voltage threshold of 4.8 V (approximately 32 ms
for a 47 mF CONTROL pin capacitance), the CONTROL pin
goes into the hysteretic mode of regulation. In this mode, the
CONTROL pin goes through alternate charge and discharge
cycles between 4.8 V and 5.8 V (see CONTROL pin operation
section above) and runs entirely off the high voltage DC input,
but with very low power consumption (160 mW typical at
230 VAC with M or X pins open). When the TOPSwitch-GX is
Hysteretic Over-Temperature Protection
Temperature protection is provided by a precision analog
circuit that turns the output MOSFET off when the junction
temperature exceeds the thermal shutdown temperature
(140 °C typical). When the junction temperature cools to
below the hysteretic temperature, normal operation resumes
providing automatic recovery. A large hysteresis of 70 °C
(typical) is provided to prevent overheating of the PC board
due to a continuous fault condition. VC is regulated in hyster-
etic mode and a 4.8 V to 5.8 V (typical) sawtooth waveform is
present on the CONTROL pin while in thermal shutdown.
Bandgap Reference
All critical TOPSwitch-GX internal voltages are derived froma
temperature-compensated bandgap reference. This reference

is also used to generate a temperature-compensated current
reference which is trimmed to accurately set the switching
frequency, MOSFET gate drive current, current limit, and the
line OV/UV thresholds. TOPSwitch-GX has improved circuitry
to maintain all of the above critical parameters within very tight
absolute and temperature tolerances.
during start-up or hysteretic operation. Hysteretic operation
occurs during auto-restart, remote off and over-temperature
shutdown. In this mode of operation, the current source is
switched on and off with an effective duty cycle of approxi-
mately 35%. This duty cycle is determined by the ratio of
CONTROL pin charge (IC) and discharge currents (ICD1 and
I
CD2). This current source is turned off during normal

Using Feature Pins
FREQUENCY (F) Pin Operation
example circuits shown in Figure 16 through Figure 40. A
description of specific functions in terms of the LINE-SENSE
pin I/V characteristic is shown in Figure 11 (right hand side).
The horizontal axis represents LINE-SENSE pin current with
positive polarity indicating currents flowing into the pin. The
meaning of the vertical axes varies with functions. For those
that control the on/off states of the output such as UV, OV and
remote ON/OFF, the vertical axis represents the enable/
disable states of the output. UV triggers at IUV (+50 µA typical
with 30 µA hysteresis) and OV triggers at IOV (+225 µA
typical with 8 µA hysteresis). Between the UV and OV thresh-
olds, the output is enabled. For line feed forward with DCMAX
reduction, the vertical axis represents the magnitude of the
DCMAX. Line feed forward with DCMAX reduction lowers
maximum duty cycle from 78% at IL(DC) (+60 µA typical) to
38% at IOV (+225 µA).
The FREQUENCY pin is a digital input pin available in the
Y, R or F package only. Shorting the FREQUENCY pin to
SOURCE pin selects the nominal switching frequency of
132 kHz (Figure 13) which is suited for most applications. For
other cases that may benefit from lower switching
frequency such as noise sensitive video applications, a 66 kHz
switching frequency (half frequency) can be selected by
shorting the FREQUENCY pin to the CONTROL pin
(Figure 14). In addition, an example circuit shown in Figure 15
may be used to lower the switching frequency from 132 kHz in
normal operation to 66 kHz in standby mode for very low standby
power consumption.
LINE-SENSE (L) Pin Operation (Y, R and F Packages)
When current is fed into the LINE-SENSE pin, it works as a
voltage source of approximately 2.6 V up to a maximum
current of +400 µA (typical). At +400 µA, this pin turns into a
constant current sink. Refer to Figure 12a. In addition, a
comparator with a threshold of 1 V is connected at the pin and is
used to detect when the pin is shorted to the SOURCE pin.
EXTERNAL CURRENT LIMIT (X) Pin Operation
(Y, R and F Packages)
When current is drawn out of the EXTERNAL CURRENT
LIMIT pin, it works as a voltage source of approximately
1.3 V up to a maximum current of –240 µA (typical). At
–240 µA, it turns into a constant current source (refer to
Figure 12a).
There are a total of four functions available through the use of
the LINE-SENSE pin: OV, UV, line feed forward with DCMAX
reduction, and remote ON/OFF. Connecting the LINE-SENSE
pin to the SOURCE pin disables all four functions. The LINE-
SENSE pin is typically used for line sensing by connecting a
resistor from this pin to the rectified DC high voltage bus to imple-
ment OV, UV and DCMAX reduction with line voltage. In this
mode, the value of the resistor determines the line OV/UV thresh-
olds, and the DCMAX is reduced linearly with rectified DC high
voltage starting from just above the UV threshold. The pin can
also be used as a remote on/off and a synchronization input. Refer
to Table 2 for possible combinations of the functions with
There are two functions available through the use of the
EXTERNAL CURRENT LIMIT pin: external current limit
and remote ON/OFF. Connecting the EXTERNAL CURRENT
LIMIT pin and SOURCE pin disables the two functions. In
high efficiency applications this pin can be used to reduce the
current limit externally to a value close to the operating peak
current, by connecting the pin to the SOURCE pin through a
resistor. The pin can also be used as a remote on/off. Table 2
shows several possible combinations using this pin. See

TOPSwitch-GX to operate in a simple three terminal mode like
TOPSwitch-II. The MULTI-FUNCTION pin is typically used
for line sensing by connecting a resistor from this pin to the
rectified DC high voltage bus to implement OV, UV and DCMAX
reduction with line voltage. In this mode, the value of the
resistor determines the line OV/UV thresholds, and the DCMAX
is reduced linearly with rectified DC high voltage starting from
just above the UV threshold. In high efficiency applications
this pin can be used in the external current limit mode instead,
to reduce the current limit externally to a value close to the
operating peak current, by connecting the pin to the SOURCE
pin through a resistor. The same pin can also be used as a
remote on/off and a synchronization input in both modes. Please
refer to Table 3 for possible combinations of the functions with
example circuits shown in Figure 30 through Figure 40. A
description of specific functions in terms of the MULTI-
FUNCTION pin I/V characteristic is shown in Figure 11. The
horizontal axis represents MULTI-FUNCTION pin current with
positive polarity indicating currents flowing into the pin. The
meaning of the vertical axes varies with functions. For those
that control the on/off states of the output such as UV, OV and
remote ON/OFF, the vertical axis represents the enable/
disable states of the output. UV triggers at IUV (+50 µA
typical) and OV triggers at IOV (+225 µA typical with 30 µA
hysteresis). Between the UV and OV thresholds, the output is
enabled. For external current limit and line feed forward with
DCMAX reduction, the vertical axis represents the magnitude of
the ILIMIT and DCMAX. Line feed forward with DCMAX reduction
lowers maximum duty cycle from 78% at IM(DC) (+60 µA
typical) to 38% at IOV (+225 µA). External current limit is
available only with negative MULTI-FUNCTION pin current.
Please see graphs in the typical performance characteristics
section for the current limit programming range and the
selection of appropriate resistor value.
MULTI-FUNCTION(M)PinOperation(PandGPackages)
The LINE-SENSE and EXTERNAL CURRENT LIMIT pin
functions are combined to a single MULTI-FUNCTION pin
for P and G packages. The comparator with a 1 V threshold at
the LINE-SENSE pin is removed in this case as shown in
Figure 2b. All of the other functions are kept intact. However,
since some of the functions require opposite polarity of input
current (MULTI-FUNCTION pin), they are mutually
exclusive. For example, line sensing features cannot be used
simultaneously with external current limit setting. When
current is fed into the MULTI-FUNCTION pin, it works as a
voltage source of approximately 2.6 V up to a maximum
current of +400 µA (typical). At +400 µA, this pin turns into a
constant current sink. When current is drawn out of the MULTI-
FUNCTION pin, it works as a voltage source of
approximately 1.3 V up to a maximum current of –240 µA
(typical). At –240 µA, it turns into a constant current source.
Refer to Figure 12b.
There are a total of five functions available through the use of
the MULTI-FUNCTION pin: OV, UV, line feed forward with
DCMAX reduction, external current limit and remote ON/OFF.

TOP242-250
provides line sensing, setting UV at 100 VDC and OV at
450 VDC. The extended maximum duty cycle feature of
TOPSwitch-GX (guaranteed minimum value of 75% vs. 64%
for TOPSwitch-II) allows the use of a smaller input capacitor
(C1). The extended maximum duty cycle and the higher
reflected voltage possible with the RCD clamp also permit the
use of a higher primary to secondary turns ratio for T1 which
reduces the peak reverse voltage experienced by the secondary
rectifier D8. As a result a 60 V Schottky rectifier can be used
for up to 15 V outputs, which greatly improves power supply
efficiency. The frequency reduction feature of the
TOPSwitch-GX eliminates the need for any dummy loading
for regulation at no load and reduces the no load/standby
consumption of the power supply. Frequency jitter provides
improved margin for conducted EMI meeting the CISPR 22
(FCC B) specification.
Application Examples
A High Efficiency, 30 W, Universal Input Power Supply
The circuit shown in Figure 41 takes advantage of several of
the TOPSwitch-GX features to reduce system cost and power
supply size and to improve efficiency. This design delivers
30 W at 12 V, from an 85 to 265 VAC input, at an ambient of
50 °C, in an open frame configuration. A nominal efficiency
of 80% at full load is achieved using TOP244Y.
The current limit is externally set by resistors R1 and R2 to a
value just above the low line operating peak DRAIN current
of approximately 70% of the default current limit. This allows
use of a smaller transformer core size and/or higher transformer
primary inductance for a given output power, reducing
TOPSwitch-GX power dissipation, while at the same time
avoiding transformer core saturation during startup and output
transient conditions. The resistors R1 & R2 provide a signal
that reduces the current limit with increasing line voltage, which
in turn limits the maximum overload power at high input line
voltage. This function in combination with the built-in soft-
start feature of TOPSwitch-GX, allows the use of a low cost
RCD clamp (R3, C3 and D1) with a higher reflected voltage,
by safely limiting the TOPSwitch-GX drain voltage, with
adequate margin under worst case conditions. Resistor R4
Output regulation is achieved by using a simple Zener sense
circuit for low cost. The output voltage is determined by the
Zener diode (VR2) voltage and the voltage drops across the
optocoupler (U2) LED and resistor R6. Resistor R8 provides
bias current to Zener VR2 for typical regulation of ±5% at the
12 V output level, over line and load and component
variations.

TOP242-250
AHighEfficiency,Enclosed,70W,UniversalAdapterSupply
The circuit shown in figure 42 takes advantage of several of the
TOPSwitch-GX features to reduce cost, power supply size and
increase efficiency. This design delivers 70 W at 19 V, from an
85 to 265 VAC input, at an ambient of 40 °C, in a small sealed
adapter case (4” x 2.15” x 1”). Full load efficiency is 85% at
85 VAC rising to 90% at 230 VAC input.
damage. Capacitor C11 has been added in parallel with VR1 to
reduce Zener clamp dissipation. With a switching frequency of
132 kHz a PQ26/20 core can be used to provide 70 W. To
maximize efficiency, by reducing winding losses, two output
windings are used each with their own dual 100 V Schottky
rectifier (D2 and D3). The frequency reduction feature of the
TOPSwitch-GX eliminates any dummy loading to maintain
regulation at no-load and reduces the no-load consumption of the
power supply to only 520 mW at 230 VAC input. Frequency
jittering provides conducted EMI meeting the CISPR 22
(FCC B) / EN55022B specification, using simple filter compo-
nents (C7, L2, L3 and C6) even with the output earth grounded.
Due to the thermal environment of a sealed adapter aTOP249Y
is used to minimize device dissipation. Resistors R9 and R10
externally program the current limit level to just above the
operating peak DRAIN current at full load and low line. This
allows the use of a smaller transformer core size without
saturation during startup or output load transients. Resistors
R9 and R10 also reduce the current limit with increasing line
voltage, limiting the maximum overload power at high input
line voltage, removing the need for any protection circuitry on
the secondary. Resistor R11 implements an under voltage and
over voltage sense as well as providing line feed forward for
reduced output line frequency ripple. With resistor R11 set at
2 MΩ the power supply does not start operating until the DC
rail voltage reaches 100 VDC. On removal of theAC input the
UV sense prevents the output glitching as C1 discharges,
turning off the TOPSwitch-GX when the output regulation is
lost or when the input voltage falls to below 40 V, whichever
occurs first. This same value of R11 sets the OV threshold to
450 V. If exceeded, for example during a line surge,
TOPSwitch-GX stops switching for the duration of the surge
extending the high voltage withstand to 700 V without device
To regulate the output an optocoupler (U2) is used with a
secondary reference sensing the output voltage via a resistor
divider (U3, R4, R5, R6). Diode D4 and C15 filter and smooth
the output of the bias winding. Capacitor C15 (1µF) prevents the
bias voltage from falling during zero to full load transients.
Resistor R8 provides filtering of leakage inductance spikes
keeping the bias voltage constant even at high output loads.
Resistor R7, C9 and C10 together with C5 and R3 provide loop
compensation.
Due to the large primary currents, all the small signal control
components are connected to a separate source node that is Kelvin
connected to the source pin of the TOPSwitch-GX. For improved
common mode surge immunity the bias winding common
returns directly to the DC bulk capacitor (C1).

TOP242-250
AHighEfficiency,250W,250–380VDCInputPowerSupply
The circuit shown in figure 43 delivers 250 W (48 V @ 5.2 A)
at 84% efficiency using a TOP249 from a 250 to 380 VDC
input. DC input is shown, as typically at this power level a
p.f.c. boost stage would preceed this supply, providing the DC
input (C1 is included to provide local decoupling). Flyback
topology is still useable at this power level due to the high
output voltage, keeping the secondary peak currents low enough
so that the output diode and capacitors are reasonably sized.
However, VR1 is essential to limit the peak drain voltage
during start-up and/or overload conditions to below the 700 V
rating of the TOPSwitch-GX MOSFET.
The secondary is rectifed and smoothed by D2 and C9, C10
and C11. Three capacitors are used to meet the secondary ripple
current requirement. Inductor L2 and C12 provide switching
noise filtering.
A simple Zener sensing chain regulates the output voltage. The
sum of the voltage drop of VR2, VR3 and VR4 plus the LED
drop of U2 gives the desired output voltage. Resistor R6
limits LED current and sets overall control loop DC gain.
Diode D4 and C14 provide secondary soft-finish, feeding
current into the CONTROL pin prior to output regulation and
thus ensuring that the output voltage reaches regulation at start-
up under low line, full load conditions. Resistor R9 provides a
discharge path for C14. Capacitor C13 and R8 provide control
loop compensation and are required due to the gain associated
with such a high output voltage.
In this example the TOP249 is at the upper limit of its power
capability and the current limit is set to the internal maximum
by connecting the X pin to SOURCE. However, line sensing
is implemented by connecting a 2 MΩ resistor from the L pin
to the DC rail. If the DC input rail rises above 450 VDC, then
TOPSwitch-GX will stop switching until the voltage returns to
normal, preventing device damage.
Due to the high primary current, a low leakage inductance
transformer is essential. Therefore, a sandwich winding with
a copper foil secondary was used. Even with this technique
the leakage inductance energy is beyond the power capability
of a simple Zener clamp. Therefore, R2, R3 and C6 are added
in parallel to VR1. These have been sized such that during
normal operation very little power is dissipated by VR1, the
leakage energy instead being dissipated by R2 and R3.
Sufficient heat sinking is required to keep the TOPSwitch-GX
device below 110 °C when operating under full load, low line
and maximum ambient temperature. Airflow may also be
required if a large heat sink area is not acceptable.

Multiple Output, 60 W, 185-265 VAC Input Power Supply
Figure 44 shows a multiple output supply typical for high end
set-top boxes or cable decoders containing high capacity hard
disks for recording. The supply delivers an output power of
45 W cont./60 W peak (thermally limited) from an input
voltage of 185 to 265 VAC. Efficiency at 45 W, 185 VAC is
≥ 75%.
to the relatively large size of C2). An optional MOV (RV1)
extends the differential surge protection to 6 kV from 4 kV.
Leakage inductance clamping is provided by VR1, R5 and C5,
keeping the DRAIN voltage below 700 V under all conditions.
Resistor R5 and capacitor C5 are selected such that VR1
dissipates very little power except during overload conditions.
The frequency jittering feature of TOPSwitch-GX allows the
circuit shown to meet CISPR22B with simple EMI filtering
(C1, L1 and C6) and the output grounded.
The 3.3 V and 5 V outputs are regulated to ±5% without the
need for secondary linear regulators. DC stacking (the
secondary winding reference for the other output voltages is
connected to the cathode of D10 rather than the anode) is used
to minimize the voltage error for the higher voltage outputs.
The secondaries are rectified and smoothed by D7 to D11, C7,
C9, C11, C13, C14, C16 and C17. Diode D11 for the 3.3 V
output is a Schottky diode to maximize efficiency. Diode D10
for the 5 V output is a PN type to center the 5 V output at 5 V.
The 3.3 V and 5 V output require two capacitors in parallel to
meet the ripple current requirement. Switching noise filtering
is provided by L2 to L5 and C8, C10, C12, C15 and C18.
Resistor R6 prevents peak charging of the lightly loaded 30 V
output. The outputs are regulated using a secondary reference
(U3). Both the 3.3 V and 5 V outputs are sensed via R11 and
R10. Resistor R8 provides bias for U3 and R7 sets the overall
DC gain. Resistor R9, C19, R3 and C4 provide loop compen-
sation. A soft-finish capacitor (C20) eliminates output
overshoot.
Due to the high ambient operating temperature requirement
typical of a set-top box (60 °C) the TOP246Y is used to
reduce conduction losses and minimize heat sink size. Resis-
tor R2 sets the device current limit to 80% of typical to limit
overload power. The line sense resistor (R1) protects the
TOPSwitch-GX from line surges and transients by sensing when
the DC rail voltage rises to above 450 V. In this condition the
TOPSwitch-GX stops switching, extending the input voltage
withstand to 496 VAC which is ideal for countries with poor
power quality. A thermistor (RT1) is used to prevent
premature failure of the fuse by limiting the inrush current (due

Processor Controlled Supply Turn On/Off
safely parking the print heads in the storage position. In the
case of products with a disk drive, the shutdown procedure
may include saving data or settings to the disk. After the shut-
down procedure is complete, when it is safe to turn off the
power supply, the microprocessor releases the M pin by
turning the optocoupler U4 off. If the manual switch and the
optocouplers U3 and U4 are not located close to the M pin, a
capacitor CM may be needed to prevent noise coupling to the
pin when it is open.
A low cost momentary contact switch can be used to turn the
TOPSwitch-GX power on and off under microprocessor
control that may be required in some applications such as
printers. The low power remote off feature allows an elegant
implementation of this function with very few external
components as shown in Figure 45. Whenever the push button
momentary contact switch P1 is closed by the user, the
optocoupler U3 is activated to inform the microprocessor of
this action. Initially, when the power supply is off (M pin is
floating), closing of P1 turns the power supply on by shorting
the M pin of the TOPSwitch-GX to SOURCE through a diode
(remote on). When the secondary output voltage VCC is
established, the microprocessor comes alive and recognizes that
the switch P1 is closed through the switch status input that is
driven by the optocoupler U3 output. The microprocessor then
sends a power supply control signal to hold the power supply
in the on-state through the optocoupler U4. If the user presses
the switch P1 again to command a turn off, the microprocessor
detects this through the optocoupler U3 and initiates a shut-
down procedure that is product specific. For example, in the
case of the inkjet printer, the shutdown procedure may include
The power supply could also be turned on remotely through a
local area network or a parallel or serial port by driving the
optocoupler U4 input LED with a logic signal. Sometimes it is
easier to send a train of logic pulses through a cable (due toAC
coupling of cable, for example) instead of a DC logic level as
a wake up signal. In this case, a simple RC filter can be used to
generate a DC level to drive U4 (not shown in Figure 45). This
remote on feature can be used to wake up peripherals such as
printers, scanners, external modems, disk drives, etc., as needed
from a computer. Peripherals are usually designed to turn off
automatically if they are not being used for a period of time, to
save power.

In addition to using a minimum number of components,
TOPSwitch-GX provides many technical advantages in this type
of application:
sequence when it detects the first closure of the switch, and
subsequentbouncingoftheswitchhasnoeffect. Ifnecessary,
the microprocessor could implement the switch debouncing
in software during turn-off, or a filter capacitor can be used
at the switch status input.
1. Extremely low power consumption in the off mode: 80 mW
typical at 110 VAC and 160 mW typical at 230 VAC. This
is because in the remote/off mode the TOPSwitch-GX
consumes very little power, and the external circuitry does
not consume any current (either M, L or X pin is open) from
the high voltage DC input.
4. No external current limiting circuitry is needed for the
operation of the U4 optocoupler output due to internal
limiting of M pin current.
5. No high voltage resistors to the input DC voltage rail are
requiredtopowertheexternalcircuitryintheprimary. Even
the LED current for U3 can be derived from the CONTROL
pin. This not only saves components and simplifies layout,
but also eliminates the power loss associated with the high
voltage resistors in both on and off states.
2. A very low cost, low voltage/current, momentary contact
switch can be used.
3. Nodebouncingcircuitryforthemomentaryswitchisrequired.
During turn-on, the start-up time of the power supply
(typically 10 to 20 ms) plus the microprocessor initiation
time act as a debouncing filter, allowing a turn-on only if the
switch is depressed firmly for at least the above delay time.
During turn-off, the microprocessor initiates the shutdown
6. Robustdesign: Thereisnoon/offlatchthatcanbeaccidentally
triggered by transients. Instead, the power supply is held in
the on-state through the secondary side microprocessor.

TOPSwitch-GX Design Considerations
applications where higher efficiency is needed or minimal heat
sinking is available.
Power Table
Datasheet power table represents the maximum practical
continuous output power based on the following conditions:
TOP242 to TOP246: 12 V output, Schottky output diode,
150Vreflected voltage (VOR) and efficiency estimates from curves
contained in application noteAN-29. TOP247 toTOP249: Higher
output voltages used with a maximum output current of
6 A.
Input Capacitor
The input capacitor must be chosen to provide the minimum DC
voltage required for the TOPSwitch-GX converter to maintain
regulation at the lowest specified input voltage and maximum
output power. Since TOPSwitch-GX has a higher DCMAX than
TOPSwitch-II, it is possible to use a smaller input capacitor.
For TOPSwitch-GX, a capacitance of 2 µF per watt is possible
for universal input with an appropriately designed transformer.
For all devices a 100 VDC minimum for 85-265 VAC and
250 VDC minimum for 230 VDC are assumed and sufficient
heat sinking to keep device temperature ≤ 100 °C. Power
levels shown in the power table for the R package device
assume 6.45 cm2 of 610 g/m2 copper heat sink area in an
enclosed adapter, or 19.4 cm2 in an open frame.
Primary Clamp and Output Reflected Voltage VOR
A primary clamp is necessary to limit the peak TOPSwitch-GX
drain to source voltage. A Zener clamp requires few parts and
takes up little board space. For good efficiency, the clamp
Zener should be selected to be at least 1.5 times the output
reflected voltage VOR as this keeps the leakage spike conduc-
tion time short. When using a Zener clamp in a universal input
application, a VOR of less than 135 V is recommended to allow
for the absolute tolerances and temperature variations of the
Zener. This will ensure efficient operation of the clamp circuit
and will also keep the maximum drain voltage below the rated
breakdown voltage of the TOPSwitch-GX MOSFET.
TOPSwitch-GX Selection
Selecting the optimum TOPSwitch-GX depends upon required
maximum output power, efficiency, heat sinking constraints
and cost goals. With the option to externally reduce current
limit, a larger TOPSwitch-GX may be used for lower power
G
1/02
29
TOP242-250
A high VOR is required to take full advantage of the wider DCMAX
of TOPSwitch-GX. An RCD clamp provides tighter clamp
voltage tolerance than a Zener clamp and allows a VOR as high as
150 V. RCD clamp dissipation can be minimized by reducing
the external current limit as a function of input line voltage (see
Figure 21 and 35). The RCD clamp is more cost effective than
the Zener clamp but requires more careful design (see quick
design checklist).
For 10 W or below, it is possible to use a simple inductor in
place of a more costly AC input common mode choke to meet
worldwide conducted EMI limits.
Transformer Design
It is recommended that the transformer be designed for
maximum operating flux density of 3000 Gauss and a peak flux
density of 4200 Gauss at maximum current limit. The turns ratio
should be chosen for a reflected voltage (VOR) no greater than
135 V whenusing a Zener clamp, or 150 V (max) when using
RCD clamp with current limit reduction with line voltage
(overload protection).
Output Diode
The output diode is selected for peak inverse voltage, output
current, and thermal conditions in the application (including
heatsinking, air circulation, etc.). The higher DCMAX of
TOPSwitch-GX along with an appropriate transformer turns ratio
can allow the use of a 60 V Schoktty diode for higher efficiency
on output voltages as high as 15 V (see Figure 41. A 12 V, 30 W
design using a 60 V Schottky for the output diode).
For designs where operating current is significantly lower than
the default current limit, it is recommended to use an externally
set current limit close to the operating peak current to reduce
peak flux density and peak power (see Figures 20 and 34). In
most applications, the tighter current limit tolerance, higher

Soft-Start
Generally a power supply experiences maximum stress at
start-up before the feedback loop achieves regulation. For a
period of 10 ms the on-chip soft-start linearly increases the duty
cycle from zero to the default DCMAX at turn on. In addition, the
primary current limit increases from 85% to 100% over the same
period. This causes the output voltage to rise in an orderly
manner allowing time for the feedback loop to take control of the
duty cycle. This reduces the stress on the TOPSwitch-GX
MOSFET, clamp circuit and output diode(s), and helps prevent
transformer saturation during start-up. Also soft-start limits the
amount of output voltage overshoot, and in many applications
eliminates the need for a soft-finish capacitor.

The frequency jitter feature modulates the switching frequency
over a narrow band as a means to reduce conducted EMI peaks
associated with the harmonics of the fundamental switching
frequency. This is particularly beneficial for average detection
mode. As can be seen in Figure 46, the benefits of jitter increase
with the order of the switching harmonic due to an increase in
frequency deviation.

The FREQUENCY pin of TOPSwitch-GX offers a switching
frequency option of 132 kHz or 66 kHz. In applications that
require heavy snubbers on the drain node for reducing high
frequency radiated noise (for example, video noise sensitive
applications such as VCR, DVD, monitor, TV, etc.), operating at
66 kHz will reduce snubber loss resulting in better efficiency.
Also, in applications where transformer size is not a concern, use
of the 66 kHz option will provide lower EMI and higher
efficiency. Note that the second harmonic of 66 kHz is still
below 150 kHz, above which the conducted EMI specifications
get much tighter.

switching frequency and soft-start features of TOPSwitch-GX
contribute to a smaller transformer when compared to
TOPSwitch-II.
Y-Capacitor
The Y-capacitor should be connected close to the secondary
output return pin(s) and the positive primary DC input pin of
the transformer.
Standby Consumption
Frequency reduction can significantly reduce power loss at light
or no load, especially when a Zener clamp is used. For very
low secondary power consumption use a TL431 regulator for
feedback control. Alternately, switching losses can be
significantly reduced by changing from 132 kHz in normal
operation to 66 kHz under light load conditions.
Heat Sinking
The tab of the Y package (TO-220) or F package (TO-262) is
internally electrically tied to the SOURCE pin. To avoid circu-
lating currents, a heat sink attached to the tab should not be
electrically tied to any primary ground/source nodes on the PC
board.
TOPSwitch-GX Layout Considerations
When using a P (DIP-8), G (SMD-8) or R (TO-263) package,
a copper area underneath the package connected to the
SOURCE pins will act as an effective heat sink. On double
sided boards (Figure 49), top side and bottom side areas
connected with vias can be used to increase the effective heat
sinking area.
As TOPSwitch-GX has additional pins and operates at much
higher power levels compared to previous TOPSwitch
families, the following guidelines should be carefully
followed.
Primary Side Connections
In addition, sufficient copper area should be provided at the
anode and cathode leads of the output diode(s) for heat
sinking.
Use a single point (Kelvin) connection at the negative terminal
of the input filter capacitor for TOPSwitch-GX source pin and
bias winding return. This improves surge capabilities by
returning surge currents from the bias winding directly to the
input filter capacitor.
In Figures 47, 48 and 49 a narrow trace is shown between the
output rectifier and output filter capacitor. This trace acts as a
thermal relief between the rectifier and filter capacitor to
prevent excessive heating of the capacitor.
The CONTROL pin bypass capacitor should be located as
close as possible to the SOURCE and CONTROL pins and its
SOURCE connection trace should not be shared by the main
MOSFET switching currents. All SOURCE pin referenced
components connected to the MULTI-FUNCTION, LINE-
SENSE or EXTERNAL CURRENT LIMIT pins should also
be located closely between their respective pin and SOURCE.
Once again the SOURCE connection trace of these
components should not be shared by the main MOSFET
switching currents. It is very critical that SOURCE pin
switching currents are returned to the input capacitor negative
terminal through a seperate trace that is not shared by the
components connected to CONTROL, MULTI-FUNCTION,
LINE-SENSE or EXTERNAL CURRENT LIMIT pins. This
is because the SOURCE pin is also the controller ground
reference pin.
Quick Design Checklist
As with any power supply design, all TOPSwitch-GX designs
should be verified on the bench to make sure that components
specifications are not exceeded under worst case conditions.
The following minimum set of tests is strongly recommended:
1. Maximum drain voltage – Verify that peak VDS does not
exceed 675 V at highest input voltage and maximum over-
load output power. Maximum overload output power
occurs when the output is overloaded to a level just before
the power supply goes into auto-restart (loss of regulation).
2. Maximum drain current – At maximum ambient tempera-
ture, maximum input voltage and maximum output load,
verify drain current waveforms at start-up for any signs of
transformer saturation and excessive leading edge current
spikes. TOPSwitch-GX has a leading edge blanking time
of 220 ns to prevent premature termination of the on-cycle.
Verify that the leading edge current spike is below the
allowed current limit envelope (see Figure 52) for the drain
current waveform at the end of the 220 ns blanking period.
Any traces to the M, L or X pins should be kept as short as
possible and away from the DRAIN trace to prevent noise
coupling. LINE-SENSE resistor (R1 in figures 47-49) should
be located close to the M or L pin to minimize the trace length
on the M or L pin side.
In addition to the 47 µF CONTROL pin capacitor, a high
frequency bypass capacitor in parallel may be used for better
noise immunity. The feedback optocoupler output should also
be located close to the CONTROL and SOURCE pins of
TOPSwitch-GX.
3. Thermal check – At maximum output power, minimum
input voltage and maximum ambient temperature, verify
that temperature specifications are not exceeded for
TOPSwitch-GX, transformer, output diodes and output
capacitors. Enough thermal margin should be allowed for

as specified in the data sheet. The margin required can

NOTES:
A. For specifications with negative values, a negative temperature coefficient corresponds to an increase in
magnitude with increasing temperature, and a positive temperature coefficient corresponds to a decrease in
magnitude with increasing temperature.
B. Guaranteed by characterization. Not tested in production.
C. For externally adjusted current limit values, please refer to Figure 55 (Current Limit vs. External Current Limit
Resistance) in the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
D. It is possible to start up and operate TOPSwitch-GX at DRAIN voltages well below 36 V. However, the
CONTROL pin charging current is reduced, which affects start-up time, auto-restart frequency, and auto-restart
duty cycle. Refer to Figure 67, the characteristic graph on CONTROL pin charge current (IC) vs. DRAIN voltage
for low voltage operation characteristics.

BENCH TEST PRECAUTIONS FOR EVALUATION OF ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
The following precautions should be followed when testing
TOPSwitch-GX by itself outside of a power supply. The sche-
matic shown in Figure 53 is suggested for laboratory testing of
TOPSwitch-GX.
while in this auto-restart mode, there is only a 12.5% chance
that the CONTROL pin oscillation will be in the correct state
(drain active state) so that the continuous drain voltage wave-
form may be observed. It is recommended that the VC power
supply be turned on first and the DRAIN pin power supply
second if continuous drain voltage waveforms are to be
observed. The 12.5% chance of being in the correct state is
due to the divide-by-8 counter. Temporarily shorting the
CONTROLpin to the SOURCE pin will reset TOPSwitch-GX,
which then will come up in the correct state.
When the DRAIN pin supply is turned on, the part will be in
the auto-restart mode. The CONTROL pin voltage will be
oscillating at a low frequency between 4.8 and 5.8 V and the
drain is turned on every eighth cycle of the CONTROL pin
oscillation. If the CONTROL pin power supply is turned on
