Transient Peak Power Capability

The UCG2883x/4x supports minimum of 2 times of transient peak output power capability for applications which require bursts of high power for short durations of time. The peak power is achieved without the need for oversizing the various components such as the transformer, power FETs, and so forth, and the same flyback design is usable for minimum of 2 times of the continuous output power rating for short durations. With this, a 65W flyback converter designed with UCG2883x/4x can deliver a minimum of 130W transient peak output power for a maximum of 120ms duration limited by the OPPH timer.

At high line input, the transient peak power delivery happens in DCM/QR modes of operation and is limited to maximum 120ms duration as per OPPH protection, as described in Section 7.4.10.4. At low line input, due to limitations in power delivery from DCM/QR modes, the continuous conduction mode (CCM) extends the operation to minimum 2 times of the nominal power rating. To limit the converter from excessive output power delivery at high line input, the CCM mode is disabled for input bulk capacitor voltage higher than 200V DC. The CCM mode of operation is described in Section 7.4.2.4. Peak power delivery in DCM/QR modes at higher than 140W for longer than 120ms triggers OPPH fault, as detailed in Section 7.4.10.4. A minimum of 2 times transient output power is supported, while maximum instantaneous transient output power in DCM/QR/CCM modes depends on the input bulk capacitor voltage and the power stage component values and is limited in time by the respective OPPH, and OPPL timers.
