Application Notes (continued)
in the worst case, the guaranteed breakdown voltage of the IC (35 V) can be exceeded. In order to prevent the rise
of supply voltage, the IC is provided with such characteristics as the supply current rises in the constant resistance
mode. This characteristics ensure that the OVP can not be released unless the AC input is cut, if the supply voltage

While the OVP is operating, the decrease of the supply current causes the rise of the supply voltage V

power supply output (the voltage which is higher than voltage
of the power supply output and may damage the load) by the
primary side of the bias coil and operates the OVP.
