CC
capacitance and output UVP design
To fulfill the Energy Star time-to-light requirement of 500 ms, the V
CC
voltage maximum charging time for IC
activation, t
VCCON,charge,max
should not exceed 350 ms. Therefore, the maximum V
CC
capacitance C
VCC,max
can be
defined and calculated as:

Where V

Where V

is the typical V

turn-on voltage threshold of 20.5 V, V
UVOFF
is the typical V
CC
turn-off voltage
threshold of 6 V and I
IC,avg,est
is the estimated IC current consumption of 12 mA.
For proper start-up, as shown in
(left)
, C
VCC
has to be high enough to ensure its corresponding t
start,max
calculated from equation (24) is longer than t
out,charge
, whch t
out,charge
is the time needed to charge the output
voltage to the start-up output UVP level V
outUV,start
or higher.
Based on the considerations above, V
CC
capacitor value and IC parameter setting of C
VCC
= 22
𝝁
F are selected in
this design example, which results in t
start,max
= 21.3 ms. In addition, a noise decoupling ceramic capacitor of
C
VCCdecouple
= 0.1
𝝁
F with low ESR is added in parallel to C
VCC
.
In the start-up phase, if the ZCD pin estimated output voltage V
out
is lower than V
outUV,start
over a time-out period
of t
start,max
, the start-up output UVP is triggered. For instance, this could happen if the flyback output is shorted
during the start-up, as shown in
(right)
. It is recommended to configure V
outUV,start
as V
out,start
. Hence,
V
outUV,start
= 27 V is selected in this design example.
The reaction of start-up output UVP is fixed as auto-restart and the auto-restart time is based on the t
auto,restart
parameter. t
auto,restart
= 1.2 sec setting is selected in this design example. Please note that t
auto,restart
is a common
auto-restart time used for other system protections with auto-restart reaction.
