TI's flyback controller surpasses Energy Star 5 standby power requirements for 10- to 65-W AC adapters

04/10/2013

Expanding its line of energy-efficient, no-load adapter power controllers, Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) announced the industry's first flyback controller that exceeds Energy Star 5 standby power requirements for 10- to 65-W AC/DC adapters used with notebooks, motor control, smart meters, micro-inverters and other high-powered applications. Used in conjunction with TI's award-winning WEBENCH® online design tool, the LM5023 flyback controller simplifies and speeds high-voltage DC/DC designs.

TI is demonstrating the LM5023 in its booth #109 at the Applied Power Electronics Conference and Expo (APEC) in Long Beach, Calif.

TI's new LM5023 isolated quasi-resonant pulse-width modulation (PWM) controller with integrated 700-mA driver offers high efficiency at up to 90 percent, low EMI and less than 10-mW of standby power. The LM5023 provides 1-percent accurate output voltage regulation, eliminating the need for cable compensation. When coupled with the highly accurate LMV431 shunt reference, it provides a competitively priced, 1-percent accurate flyback controller system.

Key features and benefits of the LM5023:

  • One-percent voltage output regulation over line, load and temperature eliminates the need for cable compensation.
  • Exceeds Energy Star 5 and European Commission 5-Star requirements for stand-by power (greater than 30 mW): Operates at low-power skip mode for ultra-low stand-by power, or less than 10 mW at 230 Vac. This minimizes energy-wasting vampire effect of AC/DC power supplies.
  • Quasi-resonant operation improves efficiency while lowering EMI emission versus fixed frequency schemes.
  • Integrated 700-mA gate driver drives large FETs for higher power outputs without additional components.
  • Hiccup-mode overload protectionreduces the stress on power components during overload conditions, increasing system reliability.
  • Critical conduction moderesults in higher efficiencies, reducing switching losses through lower EMI and the use of a less expensive rectifier diode.

High-efficiency adapter power

Adapter power products from TI, including the LM5023, UCC28710, UCC28710 and UCC24610 primary and secondary PWM controllers, provide reliable, efficient, low-cost power solutions for a wide range of AC/DC charger and adapter applications. Innovative, high-efficiency power management controllers reduce both energy consumption and solution size. Universal charge controllers help designers minimize environmental impact and reduce charging times with standards compliance. With or without wires, TI solutions provide best-in-class no load power performance and highest average system efficiency.
