PRIMARY BYPASS Pin Regulator

The PRIMARY BYPASS

pin has an internal regulator that charges the PRIMARY BYPASS pin capacitor to V by drawing current from the BPP 0.9 voltage on the DRAIN pin whenever the power switch is off. The PRIMARY BYPASS

pin is the internal supply voltage node. When the 0.85 power switch is on, the device operates from the energy stored in the

PRIMARY BYPASS pin capacitor.

0.8 In addition, there is a shunt regulator clamping the PRIMARY BYPASS

pin voltage to V when the current is provided to the PRIMARY SHUNT BYPASS

pin through an external resistor. This facilitates powering the 0.75 LYTSwitch-6 external y through a bias winding to decrease the 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 no-load consumption to less than 30 mW.
Steady-State Switching Frequency (kHz) Primary Bypass ILIM Programming

pin capacitor value. The PRIMARY BYPASS pin can use a ceramic capacitor for decoupling the
Current Limit Operation
internal supply of the device. The primary-side control er has a current limit threshold ramp that is inversely proportional to time from the end of the last primary There are (2) programmable settings using 0.47 mF and 4.7 mF for switching cycle (i.e. from the time the primary switch turns off at the standard and increased ILIM settings respectively. end of a switching cycle).
Primary Bypass Undervoltage Threshold
The characteristic produces a primary current limit that increases as The PRIMARY BYPASS

pin undervoltage circuitry disables the power the load increases (Figure 6). Switch when the PRIMARY BYPASS

pin voltage drops below ~4.5 V (V - V ) in steady-state operation. Once the PRIMARY BYPASS

Primary Bypass Output Overvoltage Auto-Restart Function
At high load, switching cycle have a maximum current approaching The PRIMARY BYPASS pin has an OV protection auto-restart feature. 100% ILIM gradual y reduced to 30% of the full current limit as the A Zener diode in paral el to the resistor in series with the PRIMARY load reduces. Once 30% current limit is reached, there is no further BYPASS pin capacitor is typical y used to detect an overvoltage on the reduction in current limit (since this is low enough to avoid audible primary bias winding to activate this protection mechanism. In the noise) but the time between switching cycles will continue to increase event the current into the PRIMARY BYPASS pin exceeds I , the as load reduces.

Auto-Restart Over-Temperature Protection
In the event a fault condition occurs such as an output overload, The thermal shutdown circuitry senses the primary switch die output short-circuit, or external component/pin fault, the LYTSwitch-6 temperature. The threshold is typical y set to T with T enters into auto-restart (AR) operation. In auto-restart the power SD SD(H) hysteresis. When the die temperature rises above this threshold the switch switching is disabled for t .
