Operation Principle
1. Power on and start
The IC has a built-in high-voltage startup current source; when the VDD voltage is less than the startup
voltage at power-on, the triode is turned on to charge the external VDD storage capacitor. When the VDD
voltage reaches 4.9V start voltage, the start current source is turned off, the start process is finished, and
the control logic starts to output PWM pulses.

2. Soft start
After the power on startup is completed, in order to prevent the saturation of the transformer core that
may occur during the process of establishing output voltage, excessive stress on the power transistor and
secondary rectifier transistor, the IC is equipped with a soft start. During the soft start, the IPK decreases.

3. PWM output
A PWM cycle consists of 3 stages:

 DK112C
Inductor charging stage (switching transistor turn-on)：T1=LP*IP/Vin；

Inductor discharge stage (switching transistor turn-off)：T2=LP*IP/Vvor；

OC resonant stage with resonant period: . IC 65KHz fixed frequency output mode,
turn-on time controlled by FB feedback voltage.

4. FB detection and feedback control

Connect a capacitor externally to the FB pin to smooth the FB voltage. External capacitors can affect the
feedback transient characteristics and stable operation of the circuit. Typical applications can be selected
between 1nF and 10nF;

The FB voltage will linearly adjust the limiting current between VFB (ocp) and VFB (sfpm). VFB (ocp) corresponds to
the maximum limiting current, while VFB (sfpm) corresponds to the minimum limiting current. When the load
increases, the FB voltage will gradually decrease; On the contrary, the FB voltage will gradually increase.
When the load is too heavy and the FB voltage is less than VFB (olp), the IC will enter the judgment of short
circuit or overload protection. When the load is light and the FB voltage is greater than VFB (sfpm), the
control circuit will reduce the switching frequency of PWM from FPWM (max) to FPWM (min) and turn it on at the
minimum turn-on time. When the load is lighter, the FB voltage will continue to rise; When the FB voltage
is higher than VFB (std), the control circuit stops PWM output and the IC enters standby burst mode.

5. Self-powered technology
The IC uses patented self powering technology to control the voltage of VDD around VDD (no), providing the
current consumption of the IC itself without the need for external auxiliary windings. Self powered circuits
can only provide the current consumption of the IC itself and cannot provide energy for external circuits.

The maximum withstand voltage of VDD is US (vdd), so VDD power supply electrolytic capacitors need to
choose products with low ESR characteristics. It is recommended that the ESR does not exceed RESR (max).
When applying, the distance between the VDD capacitor and the main control IC should be short to
reduce the interference of parasitic ESR and ESL on VDD during self power supply, and ensure that the
VDD voltage of the IC does not exceed the withstand voltage value during self power supply. When
working at low temperatures, it is best to connect another ceramic capacitor in parallel with the VDD
capacitor.

6. Over-temperature protection
Any time the IC temperature is detected to exceed TSD, the over-temperature protection is immediately
activated, the output pulse is stopped, the power transistor is turned off and the abnormal protection

mode is entered.

7. Primary short circuit protection

When the current in the primary coil of the external transformer is too high, if the current in the primary
coil reaches IPK(ocp) at ton(min) after the soft start, the IC immediately turns off the power transistor and
enters abnormal protection mode.

8. Power abnormalities
When the VDD voltage falls below VDD(reset) due to an external abnormality, the IC will turn off the power
transistor for restart.

When the VDD voltage is higher than VDD(ovp) due to external abnormality, the VDD over-voltage protection
is immediately activated, stopping the output pulse and entering the abnormal protection mode.

9. Short circuit and overload protection

When the secondary output is short circuited or overloaded, the FB voltage will be lower than VFB (olp); In
some applications, due to the high starting current required by inductive loads such as motors during
startup, the circuit may experience short-term overload. Therefore, the judgment time for the first
overload protection of the chip is t (olp1). If the FB voltage returns to normal within t (stop), the chip will not
determine overload or short circuit; If the FB voltage remains below VFB (olp) within t (stop), it is considered a
secondary short circuit. The PWM output is immediately turned off and abnormal protection mode is
entered. The short circuit protection judgment time is shortened to t (olp2) until the short circuit condition is
resolved.

10. Secondary open circuit protection

When OC voltage >VOC(prot) is detected, immediately turn off the PWM output and enter standby mode
until OC voltage <VOC(prot).

11. Exception protection mode

After the IC enters the abnormal protection mode (stop=1), the PWM output is turned off and the t(stop)
timer is started. Within t(stop), the VDD voltage drops and maintains VDD(ps), and after t(stop), the IC ends the
abnormal state.
