The M5579 series are highly integrated current-mode PWM controller ICs designed for high-performance, low standby power and low-cost offline flyback power adapters.
Operating at a fixed frequency of 65kHz under full-load conditions, the IC switches to valley-switching green mode when the load drops to maintain high conversion efficiency at high power levels. Under extremely light-load conditions, it enters extended burst mode to effectively reduce standby power consumption and achieve high conversion efficiency across the entire load range.
The M5579 series features ultra-low VCC startup current and operating current to meet various low-power power supply design requirements. It integrates a complete set of auto-recovery protection functions, including cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection (OCP), overload protection (OLP), under-voltage lockout (UVLO), over-temperature protection (OTP) and overvoltage protection (OVP). The IC offers excellent EMI immunity. Its operating frequency is kept above the 25kHz audio band to eliminate audible noise during operation.
