PMIC - AC DC Converters, Offline Switchers

1. Overview

AC-DC converters and offline switchers are critical subcategories of Power Management Integrated Circuits (PMICs) that convert alternating current (AC) from mains power to direct current (DC) for electronic devices. Offline switchers directly regulate input voltage without requiring a line-frequency transformer, enabling compact and efficient designs. These components are essential in modern electronics for ensuring stable power delivery, energy efficiency, and compliance with global standards like Energy Star and CoC Tier-2.

2. Main Types and Functional Classification

TypeFunctional FeaturesApplication Examples
Flyback ControllersIsolated topology with energy storage in transformer; suitable for low-to-medium powerMobile chargers, adapter supplies
Forward ControllersHigher efficiency for medium-to-high power; requires reset circuitryIndustrial power supplies, telecom rectifiers
Resonant ControllersZVS/ZCS techniques for minimal switching losses; high-frequency operationHigh-end server PSUs, wireless charging
PFC-PrecursorsBoosts power factor to meet regulatory limits; often paired with main convertersAppliances, LED drivers

3. Structure and Components

Typical physical structure includes:

  • Package Types: DIP, SOP, QFN, or custom power packages
  • Internal Components:
    • Power MOSFET/BJT switches
    • PWM/PFM controllers
    • Voltage/current feedback circuits
    • Protection modules (OVP, OCP, OTP)
    • High-voltage startup circuits

Technical composition integrates primary-side regulation (PSR) or secondary-side feedback with optocouplers, often supporting synchronous rectification for efficiency optimization.

4. Key Technical Parameters

Switching Frequency20kHz-2MHzAffects EMI, transformer size, and efficiency
Efficiency85%-96% (varies with load)Thermal performance and energy costs
Protection FeaturesOvervoltage, overcurrent, thermal shutdownSystem reliability and safety compliance

5. Application Fields

  • Consumer Electronics: Phone chargers, notebook adapters, smart home devices
  • Industrial: Automation equipment, PLCs, test instruments
  • Medical: Isolated power supplies for diagnostic equipment
  • Telecom: 48V rectifiers, base station power systems
  • Automotive: On-board chargers, vehicle AC-DC systems

6. Leading Manufacturers and Products

ManufacturerRepresentative ProductKey Features
Texas InstrumentsUCC28780High-frequency resonant controller with GaN support
STMicroelectronicsL6565Current-mode flyback controller for adapters
InfineonICE3BR1765Integrated CoolSET for SMPS
ON SemiconductorNCP1342Quasi-resonant flyback controller
Monolithic Power SystemsMP44010Primary-side regulated controller

7. Selection Guidelines

  • Define input/output requirements (voltage, current, power)
  • Choose topology based on isolation needs and efficiency targets
  • Evaluate protection features for mission-critical applications
  • Consider package thermal performance (e.g., exposed pads)
  • Verify compliance with standards (UL, CE, FCC)
  • Balance cost vs. integration level (e.g., controller vs. digital PMIC)

Case Study: For a 65W USB-C laptop adapter, select a high-frequency resonant controller with synchronous rectification to achieve >92% efficiency and compact form factor.

8. Industry Trends

  • Integration: Combining PFC + LLC stages into single chips
  • Wide Bandgap: SiC/GaN FETs enabling >1MHz switching
  • Digital Control: Programmable PMICs with real-time optimization
  • Green Standards: Meeting EU CoC Tier-2 no-load <10mW requirements
  • AEC-Q Compliance: Growth in automotive-grade offline converters
