Highly-integrated Green-mode PWM Controller
The SG6840 provides special enhancements that satisfy the increased need for low-standby power compatible controllers with stronger protection functions. In standby mode, the PWM frequency is linearly reduced to cut power consumption, while supplying a stable output voltage. The BiCMOS process enables the start-up current to be reduced to 30uA, and the operation current to be reduced to 3mA.
The SG6840's PWM frequency can be configured by changing an external resistor. During normal operation, it acts as a fixed frequency PWM controller. Under reduced load conditions, its patented green-mode function will decrease the PWM frequency and thus dramatically reduces power usage under zero-load and light-load conditions.
Proprietary Synchronized Slope Compensation ensures the stability of the current loop under continuous-mode operation. Built in line-voltage compensation maintains a constant output power limit for a wide AC-input range. An NTC thermistor provides Over Temperature Protection by sensing the ambient temperature.
