AP3720
AP3720 is CURRENT MODE PWM CONTROLLER manufactured by BCD Semiconductor.
Preliminary Datasheet
CURRENT MODE PWM CONTROLLER FOR BJT
General Description
The AP3720 is a low startup current, current mode PWM controller with green-mode operation. The PWM switching frequency at normal operation is 65k, but when the output power drops below the specifically level, the device enters the frequency-drop mode and the typical operating frequency is 20k Hz (no audible noise). Additionally, when the load drops to a very low level or zero, the IC operates in so called ‘burst mode’ to minimize switching loss.
The IC integrated a lot of functions such as the Lead-Edge Blanking (LEB) of the current sensing, internal slope pensation, line pensation, and several protection Features
. The protection functions include cycle-by-cycle current limit (OCP), VCC over voltage protection (OVP), OTP and OLP.
The AP3720 is available in DIP-8 and SOIC-8 packages.
