TOPSwitch power supply operation through most AC mains  
transient surge voltages. Properly designed transformers, PC  
boards, and EMI filters not only suppress the effects from  
transient voltages but also reduce both conducted and radiated  
EMI emissions as well. These techniques can also be used in  
applications with DC input voltages such as Telecom and  
Television Cable Communication (or Cablecom).

IEC 1000-4-5 (formerly IEC 801-4-5). Peak test voltages (U)

voltage first to one AC mains conductor and then the other with  
respect to earth ground. The TOPSwitch power supply output  
should be connected either directly to earth ground or AC  
coupled through a capacitor to earth ground. This transient test  
voltage causes high peak transient ringing currents to flow  
between the TOPSwitch power supply primary and secondary.  
Without proper attention to EMI filter design, transformer  
design, and PC layout design, transient currents couple into  
signal traces and generate voltage spikes capable of setting the  
TOPSwitch shutdown latch.

Figure 5. Output Voltage and Envelope of Diode Voltage Waveform  
During Normal Mode Transient Surge.  
The differential mode configuration shown in Figure 4 applies  
thetransienttestvoltageacrossbothACmainsconductors. The  
TOPSwitch power supply output should be connected either  
directly to earth ground or AC coupled through a capacitor to  
earthground. Thistransienttestvoltagecauseshighdifferential  
modetransientcurrentswhichcanoverchargethepowersupply  
bulk energy storage capacitor (C1 in Figure 7) or high voltage  
DC bus (V+) to a high value. During transient testing, directly  
measuring the V+ high voltage DC bus is dangerous and can  
lead to equipment damage. Fortunately, the V+ high voltage  
DC bus can be measured indirectly on the secondary side of the  
power supply. Figure 5 shows the ST202A power supply  
output voltage and the envelope of the output rectifier (D2 in  
Figure 7) anode voltage during a differential mode test. The  
anode voltage is useful because the envelope above reference is  
proportionaltopowersupplyoutputvoltageVO andtheenvelope  
below reference is proportional to the V+ high voltage DC bus.  
During the transient test, input capacitor C1 and the V+ high  
voltage DC bus is charged from 160 VDC up to 450 VDC but  
the TOPSwitch simply operates through with just a minor  
output voltage correction.  
Replacecommonmodechokewithwiderbandwidthstyle. One  
example of a wide bandwidth common mode choke is shown in  
Figure 6. Note that each common mode inductor is wound in  
two series connected sections to reduce capacitance. Two  
section construction also divides or splits the transient test  
voltage to reduce voltage stress and prevent arcing between  
commonmodechokewindings. Use10mH to33mHcommon  
mode chokes such as the Panasonic ELF-18D290X series for  
output power under 20 Watts and ELF-18D2XX series for  
output power over 20 Watts. (Toroidal common mode chokes  
are not recommended.)  
Some differential mode transient test voltages are capable of  
charging input capacitor C1 up to a voltage sufficient to cause  
the bridge rectifier diodes to enter avalanche breakdown which  
essentially clamps the high voltage DC bus (V+). Sometimes  
the fuse opens, sometimes the bridge rectifier fails and then the  
fuse opens. In the worst case scenario, the transient test voltage  
charges up input capacitor C1 to a sufficiently high DC bus  
voltage (V+) that TOPSwitch Drain voltage rating is exceeded.

Figure 8 shows a typical 3-wire modification to the ST202A  
TOPSwitch power supply. The earth ground wire is threaded  
through a ferrite bead or toroid to damp power cord resonances  
(see AN-15). Because of the connection to earth ground, C8 no  
longer needs to be a Y-capacitor but can be replaced with a  
simple, general purpose and low cost ceramic 0.1 uF capacitor.  
C7, C8, and C11 must have very short leads and be connected  
with short, wide traces.

The primary bias winding should be connected directly with a  
single trace to the TOPSwitch Source pin as shown in Figures  
7, 8, and 9. Bias filter capacitor C4 should also connect directly  
to the TOPSwitch Source pin with a single trace.  
Figure 12 shows a split sandwich primary transformer. The  
"noisy" or TOPSwitch connected half of the primary is  
wound followed by 1 or 2 tape layers and the bias winding.  
To reduce transformer capacitance, 3 to 5 tape layers are  
placed followed by the secondary. 3 to 5 more tape layers  
are placed before winding the "quiet" or V+ connected half  
of the primary.  
Auto-restart capacitor C5 should be connected directly across  
TOPSwitchControlandSourcepinstoreducenoisevoltageson

Reducing transformer capacitance reduces the peak transient  
currents. To reduce transformer capacitance, the primary must  
be properly located relative to the other windings. 3 to 5 layers  
of 2 mil thick polyester film tape should also be used between  
the secondary and all primary referenced windings. Three  
typical transformer design examples are given below:

The highest transformer secondary resistance (smallest wire  
diameter) should be used which is still consistent with power  
supply efficiency requirements. Slightly higher secondary  
resistance helps limit peak transient currents.

Figure 11 shows a two layer primary transformer with the  
"noisy" or TOPSwitch connected half of the primary buried  
or shielded beneath the "quiet" or V+ connected half of the  
primary. To reduce transformer capacitance, 3 to 5 tape  
layers are placed before the secondary is wound. 3 to 5 more  
tape layers are placed over the secondary before the  
primary bias winding is wound.  
Additional Countermeasures for Differential Mode  
Add resistor R6 (approximately 270 to 620 Ohms) in series  
with the optocoupler (U2) phototransistor emitter as shown in  
Figures 7, 8, and 9. R6 limits peak current flow below the

causing sufficient coil magnetostriction to stress and crack the  
ferrite core.  
Select MOV or metal-oxide-varistor transient suppressor to  
“clip” the peak off the higher transient test voltages. Connect  
varistor VR3 between fuse F1 and common mode choke L2 as  
shown in Figure 13. Long term reliability of VR3 should be  
high because VR3 absorbs only a portion of the energy  
associated with the highest peak transient test voltages. Lower  
peak transient test voltages can be safely tolerated without VR3  
absorbing significant energy.
