A unique input circuit allows the HV9123 to self-start directly
from a high voltage input, and subsequently take the power
to operate from one of the outputs of the converter it is
controlling, allowing very efficient operation while maintaining
input-to-output galvanic isolation limited in voltage only by
the insulation system of the associated magnetic assembly.
A ±2% internal bandgap reference, internal operational
amplifier, very high speed comparator, and output buffer
allow production of rugged, high performance, high efficiency
power supplies of 50W or more, which can still be over 80%
efficient at outputs of 1.0W or less. The wide dynamic range of
the controller system allows designs with extremely wide line
and load variations with much less difficulty and much higher
efficiency than usual. The exceptionally wide input voltage
range also allows better usage of energy stored in input
dropout capacitors than with other PWM ICs. Remote on/off
controls allow either latching or nonlatching remote shutdown.
During shutdown, the power required is under 6.0mW.

General Description
The Supertex HV9123 is a Switch Mode Power Supply
(SMPS) controller subsystem that can start and run
directly from almost any DC input, from a 12V battery
to a rectified and filtered 240VAC line. It contains all the
elements required to build a single-switch converter except
for the switch, magnetic assembly, output rectifier(s) and
filter(s).

Detailed Description
Preregulator
The preregulator/startup circuit for the HV9123 consists of
a high-voltage n-channel depletion-mode DMOS transistor
driven by an error amplifier to form a variable current path
between the VIN terminal and the VDD terminal. Maximum
current (about 20 mA) occurs when V
DD
= 0, with current re-
ducing as V
DD
rises. This path shuts off altogether when V
DD
rises to somewhere between 7.8 and 9.4V, so that if V
DD
is
held at 10 or 12V by an external source (generally the sup-
ply the chip is controlling), no current other than leakage is
drawn through the high voltage transistor. This minimizes
dissipation.
An external capacitor between VDD and VSS is generally
required to store energy used by the chip in the time be-
tween shutoff of the high voltage path and the VDD supply’s
output rising enough to take over powering the chip. This
capacitor should have a value of 100X or more the effective
gate capacitance of the MOSFET being driven, i.e.,
C
STORAGE
≥ 100 x (gate charge of FET at 10V)
as well as very good high frequency characteristics. Stacked
polyester or ceramic caps work well. Electrolytic capacitors
are generally not suitable. A common resistor divider string
is used to monitor V
DD
for both the undervoltage lockout cir-
cuit and the shutoff circuit of the high voltage FET. Setting
the undervoltage sense point about 0.6V lower on the string
than the FET shutoff point guarantees that the undervoltage
lockout always releases before the FET shuts off.
20µA, which can be set by a 390 to 510KΩ resistor if a 10V
V
DD
is used, or a 510 to 680KΩ resistor if V
DD
will be 12V. A
precision resistor is not required; ± 5% is fine.
Clock Oscillator
The clock oscillator of the HV9123 consists of a ring of
CMOS inverters, timing capacitors, and a capacitor dis-
charge FET. A single external resistor between the OSC IN
and OSC OUT pins is required to set oscillator frequency
(see graph). The discharge can either be connected to VSS
directly or connected to VSS through a resistor used to set
a dead time.
One difference exists between the Supertex HV9123 and
competitive 9123s: The oscillator is shut off when a shutoff
command is received. This saves about 150µA of quiescent
current, which aids in the construction of power supplies
to meet CCITT specification I-430, and in other situations
where an absolute minimum of quiescent power dissipation
is required.
Reference
Bias Circuit
An external bias resistor, connected between the bias pin
and VSS is required by the HV9123 to set currents in a se-
ries of current mirrors used by the analog sections of the
chip. Nominal external bias current requirement is 15 to
The Reference of the HV9123 consists of a stable bandgap
reference followed by a buffer amplifier which scales the
voltage up to approximately 4.0V. The scaling resistors of
the reference buffer amplifier are trimmed during manufac-
ture so that the output of the error amplifier, when connected
in a gain of -1 configuration, is as close to 4.0V as possible.
This nulls out any input offset of the error amplifier. As a con-
sequence, even though the observed reference voltage of a
specific part may not be exactly 4.0V, the feedback voltage
required for proper regulation will be.
A ≈ 50KΩ resistor is placed internally between the output
of the reference buffer amplifier and the circuitry it feeds
