Product details
Overview
AP3983CP7-G1 from Diodes Incorporated is a high-frequency primary-side controlled power switcher IC with integrated 650V N-channel MOSFET, designed for offline flyback SMPS in AC/DC adapters and auxiliary supplies. It delivers up to 10W output power (PDIP-7 package), employs piece-wise PFM control in DCM, features built-in cable voltage drop compensation (6.00% typical), and supports 1.8–80 kHz variable switching frequency with 7% dithering for EMC improvement.
For engineers reviewing the AP3983CP7-G1 datasheet, AP3983CP7-G1 pinout, AP3983CP7-G1 application, or AP3983CP7-G1 equivalent, this device serves as a cost-optimized, optocoupler-free solution requiring precise primary-side CV/CC regulation, thermal shutdown at +160°C, and low 0.2 µA startup current in compact PDIP-7 packaging.
Technical Context
The AP3983CP7-G1 implements primary-side regulation using auxiliary winding feedback (FB pin) and peak current sensing (CS pin), eliminating secondary-side optocouplers and TL431. Its constant-voltage loop maintains 3.95 V ±6 mV reference at FB, while constant-current mode enforces fixed tONS/tSW = 4/8 ratio under load variation.
It integrates a 650 V BVDSS MOSFET with 5 Ω typical RDS(ON), operates from -40°C to +105°C, and includes hiccup-mode short-circuit protection triggered at FB = 1.5 V, overvoltage shutdown at 7.5 V, and thermal shutdown at +160°C with +40°C hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Power | 10 W continuous in non-ventilated enclosed adapter at +50°C ambient |
| Switching Frequency | 1.8–80 kHz variable range; 7% dithering improves conducted/radiated EMI |
| FB Reference Voltage | 3.95 V ±6 mV; enables tight ±1% output voltage regulation without optocoupler |
| Cable Compensation | 6.00% typical VOUT compensation ratio; corrects voltage drop across USB/cable loads |
| MOSFET BVDSS / RDS(ON) | 650 V breakdown; 5 Ω typical on-resistance reduces conduction loss in 10W designs |

Pinout & Package
AP3983CP7-G1 is housed in a 7-pin PDIP package (8.40 × 6.20 × 3.20 mm), optimized for through-hole mounting and thermal dissipation in cost-sensitive AC/DC adapters.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - CPC | Cable compensation capacitor connection | Connects external 10 nF capacitor to GND to smooth compensation signal and reduce noise sensitivity |
| 2 - FB | Auxiliary winding feedback input | Samples reflected voltage from transformer auxiliary winding to regulate output voltage without optocoupler |
| 3 - VCC | Internal bias supply input | Receives rectified auxiliary winding voltage; powers internal circuitry after startup |
| 4 - CS | Primary current sense input | Detects MOSFET source current via external sense resistor to control peak current and enable CC mode |
| 5,6 - D | Integrated MOSFET drain terminal | Internally connects to drain of 650 V/2 A MOSFET; requires PCB copper pour for thermal management |
| 7 - GND | Signal reference ground | Common return for FB, CS, CPC, and internal regulator; must be low-impedance path to minimize noise coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Primary-side regulation | Eliminates optocoupler and TL431, reducing BOM count by ≥3 components and PCB area by >25% |
| Programmable cable compensation | Fixed 0.3 V typical compensation offset enables stable 5 V USB output across 0–2 A load range |
| Hiccup-mode short-circuit protection | Auto-recovery after fault clears; limits average power to <100 mW during sustained short, preventing transformer saturation |
| Line voltage compensation | 230 Ω internal resistor compensates for input line variation, maintaining ±1% output accuracy from 90–264 VAC |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar primary-side flyback controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP3983DP7-G1 | Higher 18W rating; 2.4 Ω RDS(ON); 1.8 W power dissipation | Supports larger adapters (e.g., laptop chargers); requires larger transformer and heatsink | Select when >10W output or lower conduction loss is required; not drop-in due to higher thermal mass |
| MP6004GJ-Z | 650V MOSFET; 1.2 Ω RDS(ON); 100 kHz max frequency; no built-in cable compensation | Lacks integrated cable compensation; requires external circuitry for USB voltage hold-up | Choose for higher-frequency designs needing tighter EMI control; add external compensation network for cable drop correction |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output power supported by AP3983CP7-G1?
The AP3983CP7-G1 delivers up to 10 W continuous output power in a non-ventilated enclosed adapter at +50°C ambient temperature, as validated per Diodes' DS36784 Rev. 5–3 test conditions. This rating assumes PDIP-7 packaging, standard FR-4 PCB layout with 300 mm² copper pour, and operation within -40°C to +105°C junction temperature range.
How does the built-in cable compensation function work?
The AP3983CP7-G1 applies a fixed 0.3 V offset to the FB reference voltage, corresponding to a 6.00% typical compensation ratio (ΔVFB/VFB). A 10 nF capacitor on the CPC pin filters ripple, enabling stable 5 V output across full load range despite voltage drop in USB cables-no external op-amp or compensation network required.
Can AP3983CP7-G1 operate without an auxiliary winding?
No. The AP3983CP7-G1 requires an auxiliary winding on the flyback transformer to supply VCC after startup and provide voltage feedback via the FB pin. The IC cannot bootstrap or regulate without this winding, as it lacks high-voltage start-up circuitry or alternative feedback paths-auxiliary winding is mandatory for both bias and regulation.
What protection features are integrated into AP3983CP7-G1?
The AP3983CP7-G1 integrates hiccup-mode short-circuit protection (triggered at FB = 1.5 V), overvoltage protection (shuts down at FB = 7.5 V), overtemperature protection (+160°C shutdown with +40°C hysteresis), and leading-edge blanking (500 ns) on the CS pin. All protections are fully internal-no external components needed for basic fault coverage.
