Description

The AP3988 is a performance enhanced power switcher for power supplies with better conversion efficiency, better voltage & current accuracy, and improved protection functions. Typical applications include charger, adapter for ADSL, home appliance power supply, LED lighting power supply and PC auxiliary power supplies. The controller regulates the output voltage and current in the primary side by piece-wise Pulse Frequency Modulation (p-PFM) in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). The system operating frequency reduces linearly from heavy load to light load in each interval of the p-PFM, and enters constant current mode when the load current equals to the maximum system output current. 
 
The AP3988 provides operating frequency dithering function to  improve EMC performance of power supply. It also has built-in fixed cable voltage drop compensation (5% of nominal system output voltage) and adjustable line voltage compensation. 
 
The AP3988 solution has fewer component number, smaller size,  and lower total cost. 
 
The AP3988 is packaged in SO-7.
