The current-sense resistor (R4 in Figure 1), connected
between the source of the MOSFET and ground, sets the
current limit. The current-limit comparator has a voltage

transformer which also flows through the MOSFET.
When the voltage produced by this current (through the
current-sense resistor) exceeds the current-limit com-
parator threshold, the MOSFET driver (NDRV) termi-
nates the current on-cycle within 60ns (typ). Use a
small RC network to filter out the leading-edge spikes
on the sensed waveform when needed. Set the corner
frequency between 2MHz and 10MHz.
The bypass capacitor at IN, C1, supplies current imme-
diately after the MAX15000 wakes up (see Figure 1).
The size of C1 and the connection configuration of the
tertiary winding determine the number of cycles avail-
able for startup. Large values of C1 increase the start-
up time but also supply gate charge for more cycles
during initial startup. If the value of C1 is too small, V
drops below 9.74V because NDRV does not have
enough time to switch and build up sufficient voltage
across the tertiary output which powers the device. The
device goes back into UVLO and does not start. Use a
low-leakage capacitor for C1 and C2.
Typically, offline power supplies keep startup times to
less than 500ms even in low-line conditions (85VAC
input for universal offline or 36VDC for telecom applica-
tions). Size the startup resistor, R1, to supply both the
maximum startup bias of the device (90µA) and the
charging current for C1 and C2. The bypass capacitor,
C2, must charge to 9.5V and C1 to 24V, all within the
desired time period of 500ms. Because of the internal
soft-start time of the MAX15000 (approximately 5.6ms
