7.3.6 Start-Up Operation

Upon application of input voltage to the converter, the start up resistance connected to VDD from the bulk capacitor voltage (VBULK) charges the VDD capacitor. During charging of the VDD capacitor, the device supply current is typical 1.5 µA. When VDD reaches the 21.6-V UVLO turn-on threshold, the controller is enabled and the converter starts switching. The peak-primary currents with initial three cycles are limited to IPP(min). This allows sensing any initial input or output faults with minimal power delivery. When confirmed that the input voltage is above the programmed converter turn-on voltage and with no faults detected, the start-up process proceeds and normal power conversion follows. The converter remains in discontinuous conduction mode operation during charging of the output capacitor(s), maintaining a constant output current until the output voltage is in regulation.

A commonly used initial power-on approach for UCC28742 is to use a start-up resistor, RSTR, to tie VDD to VBULK, as show in Figure 17. With this approach, the VDD pin is connected to a bypass capacitor to ground and a start-up resistance to the input bulk capacitor (+) terminal. The VDD turn-on UVLO threshold is 21.6 V (VVDD(on)) and turn-off UVLO threshold is 7.8 V (VVDD(off)), with an available operating range up to 35 V. The additional VDD headroom up to 35 V allows for VDD to rise due to the leakage energy delivered to the VDD capacitor in heavy-load conditions. Also, the wide VDD range provides the advantage of selecting a relatively small VDD capacitor and high-value startup resistance to minimize no-load standby power loss in the startup resistor.

The RSTR value has an effect to power-on delay time and no-load standby power losses. Both are usually part of the design specifications. Increasing RSTR reduces standby power losses while also increasing power-on delay time. A typical range of RSTR is between 1 MΩ and 10 MΩ as a good initial design point for off-line AC-to-DC adapters. Due to the limited voltage rating, RSTR is normally implemented by two or three resistors in series.
