Summary

The traditional VCC bias circuit of the controller, along with the associated auxiliary winding in the transformer and rectifier can be entirely eliminated by introducing a VCC self-bias circuit, which enhances the efficiency of the VCC bias circuit across a wide range of output voltages. This document provides design guidelines on sizing the VCC capacitor to verify proper operation. With this feature, engineers can achieve a more streamlined and optimized USB PD charger design.
