1. Description
FA5540/41/42 is a quasi-resonant type switching power supply control IC possible to drive a power
MOSFET directly. Low power consumption is achieved by using high-voltage CMOS process. Though it is a
small package with 8 pins, it has a lot of functions and enables to decrease external parts. Therefore it is
possible to realize a small space and high cost-performance power supply.
2. Features
Low power consumption by using high-voltage CMOS process.
Low power consumption with built-in startup circuit.
Low current consumption, in operation : 1mA(FA5540), 1.2mA(FA5541/42)
Maximum frequency limitation function : 60kHz(FA5540), 120kHz(FA5541/42)
Burst function at light load.
Drive circuit possible to connect to a power MOSFET directly.
Output current: 0.5A (sink) 0.25A (source)
Over load protection function (FA5540/41 : auto restart , FA5542 : timer latch)
Over voltage shutdown circuit in latch mode.
Under voltage lockout circuit

8. Basic operation
The basic operation of the power supply using this IC is not
switching operation using fixed frequency with an oscillator but
switching using self-excited oscillation. This is shown in Fig.1
Basic circuit diagram and Fig.2 Waveform in operation.
t1 to t2
Q1 turns ON, and Q1 drain current Id (primary current of T1)
begins to rise from zero. Q1 current is converted into voltage at
Rs and input into IS pin.
t2
When the current of Q1 gets up to the reference voltage of the
current comparator that is fixed by the voltage of FB pin, a reset
signal is input into RS flip-flop and Q1 turns OFF.
t2 to t3
When Q1 turns OFF, and the winding voltage of the transformer
turns over and current IF is provided from the transformer into
secondary side through D1.
t3 to t4
When the current from the transformer into secondary side
goes out and the current at D1 gets to zero, the voltage of Q1
drops rapidly due to the resonance of transformer inductance
and capacitor Cd. At the same time the transformer auxiliary
winding voltage Vsub also drops rapidly.
ZCD pin receives this auxiliary winding voltage but it has a little
amount of delay time due to CR circuit composed of RZCD and
CZCD on the way.
t4
When ZCD pin voltage drops lower than the threshold voltage
(62mV(typ.)) of Valley detection, a set signal is input into R-S
flip-flop and Q1 turns ON again. If the delay time of CR circuit
placed between the auxiliary winding and ZCD pin is adjusted
suitably, Q1 can be turned on at the bottom of the voltage.
Switching loss of TURN ON can be controlled to the minimum
by this operation. (Return to t1)

contrary when FB pin voltage rises higher than the pulse shutdown threshold voltage, switching is started
again. FB pin voltage overshoots and undershoots centering around the pulse shutdown threshold voltage for
mode change. Continuous pulse is output during the overshoot period and long period burst frequency is

On the other hand, in case that the auxiliary winding voltage is lower than 10.2V, the startup circuit

If an overload condition continues more than 180ms, switching is forced to shutdown using an internal timer.
In addition the startup circuit is possible to operate within 1440ms from beginning of an overload condition.
If an overload condition continues, switching is done for 180ms and after that Vcc is provided by a startup
circuit for 1260ms and the operation halt condition is maintained.
When 1440ms passes after beginning of an overload condition, a startup circuit stops its operation and Vcc
begins to drop. When Vcc decreases to 9.0V, IC is once reset and restarted. Since then startup and shutdown
are repeated if an overload condition continues. If load returns to normal, IC returns to an ordinary operation.
However, the output voltage must rise up to the setting value within 180ms settled by the timer at the startup.

If the overload condition continues more than 200ms, switching is forced to shutdown using an internal timer
and changes to latch mode to maintain this condition. During the condition when switching is shutdown due to
an overload latch, Vcc is provided by the startup circuit and the operation halt condition is maintained.
To reset an overload latch, it is required to shutdown the provision of Vcc from the startup circuit by stopping
the input voltage and reduce Vcc lower than OFF-threshold voltage 9.0V.

(5) Miscellaneous
Vcc is always observed and if it exceeds 16V (FA5540) / 28V (FA5541/42), it is shutdown. This condition is
maintained until Vcc drops to UVLO off-threshold voltage by interrupting its input voltage.
By pull-upping ZCD pin voltage higher than 7.2V from outside, shutdown is carried out like the case of the
overload voltage and this condition is maintained.
Auto restart by overload protection
If Vcc is provided by other power supply, it latches and stops.

10. Method for using each pin

(1) No.1 pin (ZCD)
Function
() Detection of timing to make MOSFET ON.
() Latch protection by an external signal.
Usage
() Detection of turn-on timing
Connection
This pin is connected to a transformer auxiliary
winding through CR circuit with RZCD and
CZCD. (Fig.10)
Be careful about polarity of an auxiliary
winding.
Operation
When ZCD pin voltage drops lower than 62mV,
MOSFET is turned on.
The auxiliary winding voltage swings + and
direction widely along with switching. A clamp
circuit is equipped to protect IC from this
voltage. If the auxiliary winding voltage is plus,
it passes a current shown in Fig. 11 and if
minus, shown in Fig.12. And then it clamps
ZCD pin voltage.
Complement
Since the threshold voltage of latch
protection by an external signal is 6.4V (min.)
as described in function (), the resistor
RZCD must be adjusted for ZCD pin voltage
not to exceed 6.4V in ordinary operation. At
the same time the resistor RZCD must be
adjusted for ZCD pin current not to exceed
the absolute maximum rating.
The MOSFET voltage oscillates just before
TURN ON due to the resonance effect
between
transformer
inductance
and
resonant capacitor Cd. CZCD is adjusted for
MOSFET to turn on at the bottom of this
resonance (Fig.13). Generally RZCD is
several 10k and CZCD is several 10pF.
However CZCD is unnecessary if good
timing is obtained.
() Latch protection
Connection
Pull up ZCD pin by an external signal.
Fig. 14 shows the connection example in
case of primary over-voltage.
Operation
When ZCD pin voltage exceeds 7.2V (typ.)
and continues for more than 40s (FA5540) /
54s (FA5541/42) (typ.), latch protection
operates.
Once latch protection operates, IC output
pulse is shutdown and maintained as it is.
It can be reset by decreasing Vcc lower than
UVLO off-threshold voltage.

Connection
This pin is connected with the receiver unit of
a photo coupler. Concurrently it is connected
a capacitor in parallel with the photo coupler
to protect noise. (Fig. 15)

This pin is biased by an IC internal power
supply through a diode and a resistor.

Operation
If the output voltage of a power supply drops
lower than the set value in an overload
condition, FB pin voltage rises and scales out.
This state is detected and judged as an
overload condition. The threshold voltage to
detect an overload is 3.3V (typ).
Complement
FA5540/41 operates intermittently in an
overload condition and automatically restarts
if the overload condition is removed. Refer to
pages 23-24 for detail operation.
FA5542 stops switching in an overload

In addition this auxiliary winding can also be
connected with ZCD pin.
ZCD
R ZCD

C ZCD
Fig.21 VCC circuit
Operation
The voltage provided by the auxiliary winding
should be set 12V to 14.5V (FA5540) / 12V to
26V (FA5541/42) in ordinary operation.
It is possible to drive IC with the current
provided by a startup circuit without using an
auxiliary winding but standby power
requirement becomes larger and heat
dissipation increases. Therefore it is better to
provide Vcc by an auxiliary winding for low
standby power requirement.
In addition, much attention is required in
selecting MOSFET to drive, because there is
a limit to the current to be provided when IC
is driven only by a startup circuit.
() Protection of over voltage
Connection
Same as the connection described in ()
Provision of power supply for IC.
Operation
If Vcc exceeds 16V (FA5540) / 28V
(FA5541/42) (typ.) and maintains more than
40s (FA5540) / 54s (FA5541/42) (typ.),
protection of over voltage is activated and IC
is latched.
Compliment
For example, if the output voltage rises
abnormally due to the error of a feedback
circuit, also Vcc rises abnormally. When Vcc
exceeds 16V (FA5540) / 28V (FA5541/42),
latch protection is activated. Therefore that
operates as over voltage protection of
primary side detection.

IC is activated and begins to operate.
