ON Semiconductor NCP1271P100G PWM Current-Mode Controller

The NCP1271P100G from ON Semiconductor is a versatile and efficient PWM current-mode controller designed for high-performance power supply applications. This IC integrates a host of features that enable it to deliver stable and reliable power conversion for a variety of electronic devices.

Key Features

• Adjustable Switching Frequency: The NCP1271P100G offers an adjustable switching frequency that ranges from 65 kHz to 130 kHz, allowing designers to optimize their power supply for efficiency or size.
• High-Voltage Startup: With a high-voltage startup circuit, this controller can be powered directly from the high-voltage rail, eliminating the need for an additional stand-by power supply and reducing system cost and complexity.
• Current-Mode Control: The current-mode control provides improved transient response, simplifies loop compensation, and ensures consistent performance across different output loads and input voltages.
• Skip Cycle Capability: To enhance efficiency at light loads, the NCP1271P100G features a skip cycle mode that reduces switching losses by skipping unnecessary cycles.
• Auto-Recovery Overload Protection: The device includes an auto-recovery overload protection feature that helps protect the power supply and the end application from excessive power draw or short-circuit conditions.
• Built-in Frequency Jittering: The built-in frequency jittering helps in reducing electromagnetic interference (EMI), easing the design of EMI filters and helping to meet regulatory standards.
• Soft-Start Function: A soft-start function minimizes stress on the power supply during startup by gradually ramping up the output voltage.
