Frequency Hopping For EMI Improvement
set the normal switching frequency; the switching frequency is modulated with a period signal generated by the 2nd
oscillator. The relation between the first oscillator and the 2nd oscillator as followed FIG.2. So the tone energy is
evenly spread out, the spread spectrum minimizes the conduction band EMI and therefore eases the system design
in meeting stringent EMI requirement.
Built-in Slope Compensation
this greatly improves the close loop stability at CCM and prevents the sub-harmonic oscillation and thus reduces the
output ripple voltage.
Leading-Edge Blanking
premature termination of the switching pulse, a 400ns leading-edge blanking time is built in. Conventional RC
filtering can therefore be omitted. During this blanking period, the current-limit comparator is disabled and it cannot
switch off the gate driver.

current is increased. Smaller threshold voltage, forces the output GATE drive to terminate earlier, thus reduce the
total PWM turn-on time and make the output power equal to that of low line input. This proprietary internal
compensation ensures a constant output power limit for wide AC input voltage from 90VAC to 264VAC.
