4. Connect an Auxiliary Winding: If the mains conditions
are such that you simply can’t match the maximum power
dissipation, then you need to connect an auxiliary winding
to permanently disconnect the startup source.
Overload Operation
controlled (e.g. wall adapters delivering raw DC level), it is
interesting to implement a true short−circuit protection. A
short−circuit actually forces the output voltage to be at a low
level, preventing a bias current to circulate in the
Optocoupler LED. As a result, the FB pin level is pulled up
to 4.2 V, as internally imposed by the IC. The peak current
setpoint goes to the maximum and the supply delivers a
rather high power with all the associated effects. Please note
that this can also happen in case of feedback loss, e.g. a
broken Optocoupler. To account for this situation, NCP1216
hosts a dedicated overload detection circuitry. Once
activated, this circuitry imposes to deliver pulses in a burst
manner with a low duty−cycle. The system auto−recovers
when the fault condition disappears.
If the fault is relaxed during the V
sequence, the IC automatically resumes.
If the fault still persists when V
controller cuts everything off until recovery.

If this condition is still present when the VCC

self−supply current source to restart and puts all the circuitry
in standby, consuming as little as 350 mA typical (I

you first apply the power to the IC. The corresponding
transient fault duration due to the output capacitor charging
must be less than the time needed to discharge from 12.2 V
to 10 V, otherwise the supply will not properly start. The test
consists in either simulating or measuring in the lab how
much time the system takes to reach the regulation at full
load. Let’s suppose that this time corresponds to 6ms.
