AN-6208
Secondary-Side Synchronous Rectifier (SR) for LLC Resonant Converter Using FAN6208
Introduction
The LLC resonant converter has drawn a lot of attention recently due to its advantages over a conventional series resonant converter and parallel resonant converter: narrow frequency variation over wide load, input variation, and Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) for the entire load range. In an LLC resonant converter, rectifier diodes are typically used to obtain DC output voltage from the transformer secondary winding. The conduction loss of diode rectifier contributes significantly to the overall power losses in an LLC resonant converter; especially in low output voltage applications. The conduction loss of a rectifier is proportional to the product of its forward-voltage drop and the forward conduction current. Using synchronous rectification (SR) where the rectifier diode is replaced by MOSFET with a small on resistance (RDSON), the forwardvoltage drop of a synchronous rectifier can be lower than that of a diode rectifier and, consequently, the rectifier conduction loss can be reduced. FAN6208 is a synchronous rectification controller for isolated LLC or LC resonant converters that can drive two individual SR MOSFETs emulating the behavior of rectifier diodes. FAN6208 measures the SR conduction time of each switching cycle by monitoring the drain-to-source voltage of each SR and determines the optimal timing of SR gate drive. FAN6208 also uses the change of opto-coupler diode current to adaptively shrink the duration of SR gate drive signals during load transients to prevent shoot-through. To improve light-load efficiency, Green Mode disables the SR drive signals, minimizing gate drive power consumption at light-load conditions. This application note describes the design procedure for a SR circuit using FAN6208. The guidelines for printed circuit board (PCB) layout and a design example with experiment results are also presented. Figure 1 shows the typical application circuit of FAN6208.

LLC Resonance Converter with SR
Figure 2 shows the simplified schematic of a half-bridge LLC resonant converter, where Lm is the magnetizing inductance that acts as a shunt inductor, Lr is the series resonant inductor, and Cr is the resonant capacitor. Since the magnetizing inductor is relatively small, a considerable amount of magnetizing current (Im) exists, which freewheels in the primary side without being involved in the power transfer. The primary-side current (Ip) is sum of the magnetizing current and the secondary-side current referred to the primary. Figure 3 shows the typical gain curve of the half-bridge LLC resonant converter. To allow Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) for the primary-side switches, gain curves with inductive impedance characteristics should be used, where the gain decreases as frequency increases. The resonant network has a resonant frequency determined by the resonance between Lr and Cr. When the switching frequency is lower than the resonant frequency (below resonance), the half resonance of reflected secondary-side current (diode current) finishes before the primary-side switch is turned off, as shown in Figure 4. When the switching frequency is higher than the resonant frequency (above resonance) the primary-side switch is turned off before the half resonance of reflected secondary-side current (diode current) is completed, as shown in Figure 5.

APPLICATION NOTE
Application Circuit Figure 6 shows the typical application circuit of FAN6208 and Figure 7 shows the typical timing diagram of SR gate drive signal. FAN6208 senses the drain-to-source voltage of each SR to determine the gate drive timing. Once the body diode of SR begins conducting, the drain-to-source voltage drops to zero, which causes low detection (DETL) pin voltage to drop to zero. FAN6208 turns on the MOSFET after tON-ON-DETL (about 350ns), when the voltage on DETL drops below 2V. As depicted in Figure 8, the turn -on delay (after tSR-ON-DETL) is a sum of debounce time (150ns) and propagation delay (200ns). FAN6208 measures the SR conduction duration (tDETL), during which DETL voltage stays lower than 2V, and uses this information to determine the turn-off instant of SR gates of the next switching cycle, as shown in Figure 7. The turn-off instant is obtained by subtracting a dead time (tDEAD) from the measured SR conduction duration of the previous switching cycle.

DETL Pin Configuration
Allowable voltage on the DETL pin is from -0.3V to 7V. Since the maximum voltage of the SR drain-to-source voltage is twice that of the output voltage, a diode (DDETL) is required for the DETL pin to prevent high voltage. Diode 1N4148 is typically used for DDETL. Since the DETL internal current source is 50 A, RDETL should be determined such that the DETL voltage is lower than the low detection threshold (2V) with enough margin when the SR conducts. Since the forward-voltage drop of SR can be as low as zero when SR current is small, the DETL resistor should be:
RDETL <

(2 - VFD ) 50 A
(1)
where VFD is the forward-voltage drop of DETL diode. RDETL larger than 20k is not typically recommended for proper low-voltage detection on DETL pin. RDETL should be determined such that the DETL voltage is higher than -0.3V when the maximum voltage drop occurs across SR, such as:

(2)
where ISRmax is the maximum current of SR and RDS.ON is the maximum on-resistance of the SR MOSFET at high temperature.
The RP pin has an internal constant current source (41.5 A) and the pin voltage is determined by the Rp resistor. Depending on the RP pin voltage, the Green Mode threshold of tDETL is determined as shown in Figure 12. When RRP is less than 36K , FAN6208 operates in Low-Frequency Mode, where Green Mode is enabled when tDETL is smaller than 3.75 s. When RRP is larger than 36K , HighFrequency Mode is selected and Green Mode is enabled for tDETL smaller than 1.90 s. The RP pin also has two internal thresholds for pin-open / short protection. Using RP pin short protection, remote on / off control can be implemented as shown in Figure 13.
Figure 9. Application Circuit of DETL Pin
RP Pin Configuration
The dead time can be programmed using a resistor on the RP pin. The relationship between the dead time and SR conduction duration (tDETL) for different resistor values on the RP pin are given in Figure 10 and Figure 11. Since the SR conduction time is shrunk by the protection function (gate-shrink function) when tDEAD is smaller than 125ns, Rp should be properly selected such that the gate-shrink function does not operate at maximum switching frequency.

Gate-Shrink Functions
In normal operation, the turn-off instant is determined by subtracting a dead time (tDEAD) from the measured SR conduction duration of the previous switching cycle, as shown in Figure 7. This allows proper driving timing for the SR MOSFETS when the converter is in steady state and the switching frequency does not change much. However, this control method may cause shoot-through of SR MOSFETs when the switching frequency increases fast and switching

APPLICATION NOTE
transition of the primary-side MOSFETs takes place before the turn-off command of the SR is given. To prevent the shoot-through problem, FAN6208 has gate-shrink functions. Gate shrink takes place in the following three conditions:
1.
Figure 15. Application Circuit of FD Pin
When an insufficient dead time is detected in the previous switching cycle. When the DETL becomes HIGH within 125ns of the detection window after SR gate is turned off, the SR gate drive signal in the next switching cycle is reduced by tSHRINK-DT (about 1.25 s) to increase the dead time as shown in Figure 14.
Figure 16. Gate Shrink by Feedback Detection
3.
Figure 14. Gate Shrink by Insufficient Dead Time
2.
When the feedback information changes fast. FAN6208 monitors the current through the opto-coupler diode by measuring the voltage across the resistor in series with opto-diode, as depicted in Figure 15. If the feedback current through the opto diode increases by more than 20% of the feedback current of the previous switching cycle, SR gate signal is shrunk by tSHRINK-FD (about 1.4 s) for tD-SHRINK-FD (about 90 s), shown in Figure 16.
When the DETL voltage has ringing around zero. As depicted in Figure 17, the drain voltage of SR has ringing around zero at light-load condition after the switching transition of primary-side switches. When DETL voltage rises above 2V within 350ns after DETL voltage drops to zero and stays above 2V longer than 150ns, the gate is shrunk by 1.2 s (tSHRINK-RNG), as shown in Figure 17.

APPLICATION NOTE
Printed Circuit Board Layout
In Figure 18, the power traces are marked as bold lines. Good PCB layout improves power system efficiency and reliability and minimizes EMI. As indicated by 4, the ground of the feedback loop should be connected to the negative terminal of output capacitor CO. Trace 5 should be long and far from Vo terminal. Keep trace 6 as short as possible. As indicated by 7, the source terminals of Q1 and Q2 are connected to the negative terminal of Co. Keep trace 10 short, direct, and wide. As indicated by 8, the negative terminal of Co should be connected to the case directly.
Guidelines
For feedback detection, the FD pin should be connected to the anode of the opto diode. Connecting the FD pin through a resistor can improve surge immunity of the system. Keep trace 1 away from any power trace with high pulsating current. The control ground (trace 2) and power ground (trace 7) should meet at a single point to minimize interference. The connecting trace should be as short as possible.

APPLICATION NOTE
Figure 20 and Figure 21 show the SR gate drive waveforms for different RP. As can be seen, the dead time of SR drive can be programmed.
The efficiency test results of the Schottky diode and synchronous rectification are shown in Table 3 and Table 4. Figure 22 compares the efficiencies of Schottky diode and synchronous rectification. As can be seen, 1~2% efficiency improvement can be obtained using synchronous rectification. Figure 22 also shows how the dead time of SR affects the efficiency. By fine-tuning the dead time, efficiency can be maximized. Table 3. Efficiency Measurements at VAC=115V on 300W PC Power with Schottky Diodes (MBRP3045) Load
