BL8830A
QR/PSR CV/CC Controller
OPERATION DESCRIPTION
BL8830A is a high performance, multimode
controlled, highly integrated QR (Quasi Resonant)
Primary Side Regulation (PSR) controller. The
built-in high precision CV/CC control with high
level protection features make it very suitable for
offline small power converter applications.
◆ Startup Current and Startup Control
Startup current of BL8830A is designed to be very
low (typically 2uA) so that VDD could be charged
up above UVLO(ON) threshold level and device
starts up quickly. A large value startup resistor can
therefore be used to minimize the power loss yet
reliable startup in application.
◆ Operating Current
The operating current in BL8830A is as small as
0.65mA (typical). The small operating current
results in higher efficiency and reduces the VDD
hold-up capacitance requirement.
◆ QR/PSR Control
BL8830A uses a proprietary QR/PSR control for
high efficiency and low EMI. The IC works in
Quasi-Resonant (QR) mode in Constant Current
(CC) and Constant Voltage (CV) mode. In this way,
the efficiency is boosted and the EMI is reduced
greatly. The IC can easily meet EPS level 6
standard.
◆ Support “No-Snubber & No-Y” Design
with 600V Power MOSFET
BL8830A can support “No-snubber & No-Y”
design with normal 600V power MOSFET in 5W
(5V/1A) charger applications, which can reduce
the system cost greatly.
◆ Constant Current (CC) Regulation

In the equation above,
N---- The turn ratio of primary side winding to
secondary side winding.
Rcs---- The sensing resistor connected between
the Source to GND.
◆ Precision CV/CC Performance
In BL8830A, the parameters are trimmed to tight
range, which makes the system CC/CV to have
less than 5% variation.

5/7
◆ Soft Start
BL8830A features an internal soft start that slowly
increases the threshold of cycle-by-cycle current
limiting comparator during startup sequence. It
reduces the stress on the secondary diode during
startup. Every startup process is followed by a soft
start activation.
◆ Proprietary
Cable
Voltage
Drop
Compensation in CV Mode
When it comes to cellular phone charger
applications, the battery is located at the end of
cable, which causes typically several percentage
of voltage drop on the actual battery voltage.
BL8830A has a proprietary built-in cable voltage
drop compensation block which can provide a
constant output voltage at the end of the cable
over the entire load range in CV mode.
◆ Leading Edge Blanking (LEB)
Each time the power MOSFET is switched on, a
turn-on spike occurs across the sensing resistor.
To avoid premature termination of the switching
pulse, an internal leading edge blanking circuit
is built in. During this blanking period (500ns,
typical), the cycle-by-cycle current limiting
comparator is disabled and cannot switch off the
gate driver. Thus, external RC filter with a small
time constant is enough for current sensing.
◆ Minimum and Maximum OFF Time
In BL8830A, a minimum OFF time (typically 2us)
is implemented to suppress ringing when GATE is
off. The minimum OFF time is necessary in
applications where the transformer has a large
leakage inductance, particularly at low output
voltages or startup. The maximum OFF time in
BL8830A is typically 2.8ms, which provides a
large range for frequency reduction. In this way, a
low standby power of 70mW can be achieved.
◆ Output OVP(Over Voltage Protection) and
Output UVP (Under Voltage Protection)
In BL8830A, the output OVP is integrated by
plateau sampling the auxiliary winding in flyback
phase. The threshold voltage for output OVP is
2.4V, as shown in Fig.1 Output OVP is
auto-recovery mode protection (mentioned
below).
In BL8830A, when sensed INV voltage is below
0.65V, the IC will enter into Under Voltage
Protection (UVP) mode, in which the switching
frequency is clamped, as shown in Fig.1

QR/PSR CV/CC Controller
◆ VDD OVP(Over Voltage Protection)
VDD OVP (Over Voltage Protection) is
implemented in BL8830A and it is a protection of
auto-recovery mode.
◆ Auto Recovery Mode Protection
Once a fault condition is detected, switching will
stop. This will cause VDD to fall because no power
is delivered form the auxiliary winding. When VDD
falls to UVLO(off) (typical 9.0V), the protection is
reset and the operating current reduces to the
startup current, which causes VDD to rise.
However, if the fault still exists, the system will
experience the above mentioned process. If the
fault has gone, the system resumes normal
operation. In this manner, the auto restart can
alternatively enable and disable the switching until
the fault condition is disappeared.
Fig.1
◆ Frequency Clamping @ Output Short
Circuit
In BL8830A, when INV voltage is below 0.65V, the
IC will enter into Under Voltage Protection (UVP)
mode, the switching frequency is fixed to 50KHz
(typical). This protection is useful for LED short
circuit protection. When output is short, the
frequency clamping can lower power MOSFET
Vds spike and the system reliability can be
improved.
In BL8830A, when output short circuit occurs, the
IC will fix the switching frequency to 50KHz. In this
way, the power MOSFET Vds spike voltage is
suppressed greatly.

◆ Pin Floating Protection
In BL8830A, if pin floating situation occurs, the IC
is designed to have no damage to system.
◆ Soft Gate Drive
BL8830A has a soft totem-pole gate driver with
optimized EMI performance. An internal 16V
clamp is added for MOSFET gate protection at
higher than expected VDD input.
