General Description
Based on Flyback topology, the Primary side
Regulated AP3981B EV board is designed to
serve as an example for High Efficiency, low
cost & less components consumer home
appliance systems. Also a 650V N MosFet is
integrated within control IC for easy fitting in a
flexible & small size power system design.
During the valley on operating & work at PFM
region the high efficiency and low standby
function can be achieved, by mean of using
multi-mode controlling skill the accurate constant
voltage and constant current can be easy meet.
Its output power is rated at 6W with 12V-0.5A. It
can meet DOE VI and CoC Tier 2 energy
efficiency requirement.

With Valley on detection the switching stay at
Valley on region so that will improve power
converting efficiency & EMI performance, the
82% Efficiency can be reached at full load.
During the burst mode operation and Low start-
up operating quiescent currents the 75mW low
standby input power can be achieved.
Dynamic response is improved during work at
three mode operation as well as benefiting the
accurate constant voltage (CV) regulation &
constant current (CC) performance.
There is a Soft start during startup process.
Built-in Jittering Frequency function which is the
EMI emission can be improved
.
