Product details
Overview
AP43331NMTR-G1 from Diodes Incorporated is a secondary-side Quick Charge 3.0 Class A controller IC for AC-DC USB chargers, providing programmable constant voltage (5V/9V/12V) and constant current regulation with ±0.5% CV reference accuracy, 0.2V QC3.0 step resolution, and integrated cable compensation up to 110 mV/A. It replaces TL431-based feedback in QC3.0-compliant adapters.
For engineers reviewing the AP43331NMTR-G1 datasheet, AP43331NMTR-G1 pinout, AP43331NMTR-G1 application, or AP43331NMTR-G1 equivalent, key selection criteria include QC3.0 Class A protocol decoding, dual-loop CV/CC regulation with independent references, safe-discharge timing (120 ms), OVP/UVP thresholds per output voltage level, and SO-8 thermal resistance (129 °C/W).
Technical Context
The AP43331NMTR-G1 implements a dual-loop analog control architecture: the CV loop uses a transconductance amplifier (1.5–12 mA/mV) comparing VCTRL against precision references (0.50 V @5V, 0.90 V @9V, 1.20 V @12V), while the CC loop employs a separate transconductance amplifier (2–20 mA/mV) comparing VSENSE against mode-specific references (75 mV @5V, 50 mV @9V, 37.5 mV @12V). Both loops drive the VOUT sink output to modulate optocoupler current.
Its QC3.0 decoder interprets D+/D- voltage combinations (e.g., 3.3V/0.6V → 9V) to reconfigure internal CV/CC references and enable cable compensation (RCABLE = 100 mV/A typical). The device includes dedicated OVP (6.0 V / 10.8 V / 14.4 V thresholds) and UVP (3.15 V / 7.02 V / 9.36 V) comparators with debounce timers (100 ms / 30 ms), plus an active discharge circuit triggered when output voltage steps down.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CV Reference Accuracy | ±1% over -40°C to +85°C; ensures stable 5V/9V/12V output despite temperature drift. |
| QC3.0 Voltage Step | 0.2 V discrete steps; enables fine-grained power optimization without communication overhead. |
| Cable Compensation | 100 mV/A typical; offsets IR drop across USB cables to maintain target voltage at device connector. |
| OVP Thresholds | 6.0 V (5V mode), 10.8 V (9V), 14.4 V (12V); prevents damage during transient overvoltage events. |
| VOUT Sink Current | 20 mA typical at 4V; drives standard PC817-type optocouplers without external amplification. |
| Start-up Voltage | 3.0 V typical; allows reliable operation from low-voltage auxiliary windings during light-load conditions. |
| Operating Supply Range | 3.2 V to 12 V on VCC; supports wide-input auxiliary supplies including post-regulated 5V or 9V rails. |
Pinout & Package
AP43331NMTR-G1 is housed in a standard SO-8 package (5.8 mm × 4.9 mm, 1.27 mm pitch) with exposed pad for thermal enhancement and RoHS-compliant green finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 ICTRL | Non-inverting input of CC amplifier | Connects to top of current-sense resistor RCSS; sets CC trip point via VREF_CC and RCSS value. |
| 2 GND | Analog ground reference | Common return for all internal amplifiers and protection comparators; must be low-impedance. |
| 3 VOUT | Current-sink output | Sinks up to 50 mA to drive optocoupler LED; regulates primary-side duty cycle via feedback loop. |
| 4 VSENSE | Inverting input of CC amplifier | Connects to bottom of RCSS; completes current-sense differential pair for accurate CC regulation. |
| 5 VCTRL | Inverting input of CV amplifier | Accepts resistor-divider voltage from output; compares against internal CV reference for voltage setpoint. |
| 6 VCC | Supply input | Power source for internal bias and logic; requires ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability. |
| 7 D- | USB data line (negative) | Inputs QC3.0 handshake signals; internal 19.5 kΩ pull-down enables DCP detection and protocol decode. |
| 8 D+ | USB data line (positive) | Inputs QC3.0 handshake signals; internal glitch filters (1.25 s high, 50 µs low) reject noise during negotiation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated QC3.0 Class A decoder | Directly interprets D+/D- voltage pairs (e.g., 3.3V/0.6V) to configure CV/CC references without MCU intervention. |
| Output cable compensation | 100 mV/A gain applied to sensed current; maintains ±0.5% output voltage accuracy at load end of 1m/24AWG cable. |
| Safe-discharge circuitry | 70 mA average discharge current; reduces 12V→5V transition time to 120 ms, preventing overvoltage stress on connected devices. |
| Independent OVP/UVP per mode | Differentiated thresholds (e.g., 10.8V OVP @9V mode) prevent false triggering during dynamic voltage transitions. |
| No external shunt regulator required | Replaces TL431 + optocoupler bias network; reduces BOM count by 3 components and improves startup reliability. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar QC3.0 secondary-side controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPQ4281-AEC1 from Monolithic Power Systems | Automotive-grade AEC-Q100 qualified; wider -40°C to +125°C operating range; no integrated QC3.0 decoder (requires external MCU). | Targeted at automotive infotainment USB ports; lacks native QC3.0 support, needing software protocol stack. | Select when AEC-Q100 compliance and extended temperature are mandatory, and MCU resources exist for QC3.0 implementation. |
| INN3370C from Power Integrations | Integrated primary-side QR flyback controller with embedded QC3.0 decoder; eliminates optocoupler and secondary-side controller entirely. | Reduces component count by 40%; targets cost-sensitive single-port adapters where primary-side regulation suffices. | Select when BOM reduction and simplified layout outweigh need for secondary-side precision and cable compensation. |
Compared with MPQ4281-AEC1 and INN3370C, the AP43331NMTR-G1 delivers optimal balance of native QC3.0 Class A compliance, analog CV/CC precision, and cable compensation-making it ideal for high-efficiency, discrete secondary-side designs where optocoupler feedback remains preferred.

FAQ
What is the minimum VCC start-up voltage for AP43331NMTR-G1?
The AP43331NMTR-G1 starts operation at 3.0 V typical on the VCC pin, with guaranteed function down to 2.8 V. This allows reliable initialization from auxiliary windings delivering ≥3.2 V under all load conditions, avoiding brown-out during light-load startup sequences.
How does the AP43331NMTR-G1 implement cable compensation?
The device measures output current via RCSS and applies a 100 mV/A gain to generate a correction voltage added to the VCTRL divider node. This offsets voltage drop across the USB cable, ensuring the regulated voltage at the device connector matches the programmed CV setpoint within ±0.5%.
Can AP43331NMTR-G1 operate without QC3.0-compatible devices connected?
Yes. When no QC3.0 handshake occurs, the AP43331NMTR-G1 defaults to 5V constant voltage mode with automatic fallback to 5V OVP/UVP thresholds and standard CC regulation, ensuring safe operation with legacy USB devices.
What is the purpose of the ICTRL and VSENSE pins?
ICTRL is the non-inverting input of the CC amplifier and connects to the high-side of the current-sense resistor; VSENSE is its inverting input connected to the low-side. Together they form a differential current-sense interface enabling accurate CC regulation independent of ground path noise.
