Product details
Overview
HF920BGSE-Z from Monolithic Power Systems is a monolithic 900V flyback switching regulator IC with integrated MOSFET, programmable frequency up to 150kHz, EMI-optimized jittering and frequency doubling, and <30mW no-load consumption. It delivers stable AC/DC power conversion for smart meters, industrial controls, and large appliances operating across 85–420VAC input.
For engineers reviewing the HF920BGSE-Z datasheet, HF920BGSE-Z pinout, HF920BGSE-Z application, or HF920BGSE-Z equivalent, key selection criteria include its 900V/15Ω integrated MOSFET, burst-mode standby efficiency, VCC UVLO hysteresis (4V), PRO pin protection with auto-restart, and SOIC8-7A package thermal performance (θJA = 96°C/W).
Technical Context
The HF920BGSE-Z implements peak current mode control with internal slope compensation and leading-edge blanking (tLEB1 = 385ns) to ensure stable loop dynamics and noise immunity. Its proprietary 900V monolithic process integrates OTP on-die with the power MOSFET, enabling precise thermal shutdown at 150°C with 30°C hysteresis.
EMI mitigation is achieved via ±3.5% frequency jittering and optional frequency doubling-triggered when FB rises to VOLP (3.65V)-allowing operation under magnetizing interference that reduces transformer inductance by up to 50%. The FSET pin supports resistor-programmed frequency and dual-mode configuration using a 1nF capacitor.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Integrated MOSFET | 900V breakdown voltage, 15Ω RDS(ON) @ 25°C - enables direct connection to universal AC mains without external HV MOSFET. |
| Switching frequency | Programmable up to 150kHz via FSET resistor - allows radiated EMI tuning to avoid PLC bands in home automation. |
| No-load consumption | <30mW - meets stringent global energy standards (e.g., EU CoC Tier 2, DOE Level VI) for always-on metering systems. |
| Burst mode thresholds | VBURL = 0.5V, VBURH = 0.7V - defines precise light-load transition points to minimize switching loss while maintaining regulation. |
| VCC UVLO | VCCH = 13V, VCCL = 9V, hysteresis = 4V - ensures reliable start-up and brown-out recovery across wide temperature and line ranges. |
| OVP & OLP | VOVP = 25.5V, tOVP = 70μs; VOLP = 3.65V over 8192 cycles - provides layered fault protection with auto-restart behavior for field reliability. |
| Thermal protection | OTP threshold = 150°C, recovery hysteresis = 30°C - prevents permanent damage during sustained overload or poor heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
HF920BGSE-Z is housed in a SOIC8-7A package (7-pin variant with exposed GND pad), optimized for high-voltage isolation and thermal dissipation. The package features an internal GND plane connected to a 3cm² copper area per datasheet layout guidance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (GND) | Power ground reference | Primary return path for internal MOSFET source current and control circuitry; requires dedicated 3cm² copper pour for thermal management. |
| 2 (VCC) | IC supply rail | Powered initially by D-pin HV current source; transitions to auxiliary winding after VCCH (13V) is reached; UVLO hysteresis ensures clean restart. |
| 3 (FSET) | Frequency programming & mode control | Resistor-to-GND sets fSW; adding 1nF enables frequency doubling during OLP - critical for EMI robustness in noisy environments. |
| 4 (PRO) | External fault input | Pulled high (>3.1V) to initiate shutdown with hysteresis and auto-restart - used for input OVP, external OTP, or system-level fault signaling. |
| 5 (FB) | Feedback and protection sensing | Regulates output via optocoupler; also detects burst entry (0.5V), OLP (3.65V), and initiates soft-start ramp - single pin handles multiple control functions. |
| 6 (D) | Drain of integrated MOSFET | High-side switch node rated for 900V; connects to primary winding; supplies start-up current via internal HV source until VCC is established. |
| 7 (S) | Source and current sense | Current-sense input referenced to GND; monitors primary peak current with LEB (385ns); feeds slope-compensated comparator for cycle-by-cycle limiting. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Monolithic 900V MOSFET | Eliminates external HV switch and gate driver, reducing BOM count and PCB footprint in space-constrained metering designs. |
| Active burst mode | Reduces switching loss at light load by gating PWM pulses - achieves <30mW no-load consumption without compromising regulation accuracy. |
| Frequency jittering (±3.5%) | Spreads spectral energy across 256-cycle window, lowering peak EMI by >10dB and relaxing input filter component requirements. |
| On-die over-temperature protection | Direct junction temperature sensing enables faster, more accurate thermal shutdown than external NTC-based solutions - improves long-term reliability. |
| Internal soft-start (6.7ms) | Gradually increases peak current limit and switching frequency to prevent inrush stress on transformer, rectifier, and output capacitors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar offline flyback regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MP6004GQ-Z | 700V integrated MOSFET, fixed 65kHz fSW, no frequency doubling or jittering, higher no-load consumption (~65mW) | Limited to ≤265VAC inputs; unsuitable for 420VAC surge-prone metering or industrial environments | Select only for cost-sensitive, lower-voltage consumer applications where EMI headroom exists. |
| UCC28632DR | 650V MOSFET, valley-switching quasi-resonant topology, no integrated HV start-up, requires external bias winding | Higher efficiency at medium loads but larger solution size; lacks monolithic HV integration and PRO pin flexibility | Prefer for high-efficiency lighting drivers where transformer design freedom outweighs BOM simplicity. |
Compared with MP6004GQ-Z and UCC28632DR, HF920BGSE-Z uniquely combines 900V integration, EMI-optimized jittering + frequency doubling, and sub-30mW standby - making it the only choice for high-reliability, high-input-voltage, low-EMI AC/DC conversion in utility-grade equipment.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output power achievable with HF920BGSE-Z in SOIC8-7A package?
At 230VAC ±15%, the HF920BGSE-Z delivers up to 9.5W continuous output power in SOIC8-7A when mounted on a 3cm² copper area at TA = 50°C. This assumes single-output 12.5V design, BCM operation at minimum input, and proper transformer turns ratio (N = 5) to limit VDS stress. Derating applies above 50°C ambient.
How does the PRO pin function during fault conditions?
The PRO pin shuts down the IC when pulled above 3.1V with 0.2V hysteresis, then automatically restarts once the voltage drops below 2.9V. It supports external fault detection such as input overvoltage or thermistor-based overtemperature monitoring, and includes auto-recovery behavior - eliminating need for external latch circuits in most industrial designs.
Can HF920BGSE-Z operate without an auxiliary winding for VCC supply?
Yes - the internal HV current source on the D pin powers VCC during startup until VCCH (13V) is reached. Once established, the auxiliary winding takes over. If the auxiliary winding fails, the IC reverts to D-pin supply, enabling fail-safe operation in critical metering applications where auxiliary loss must not cause total power failure.
What is the purpose of the 1nF capacitor on the FSET pin?
A 1nF capacitor placed between FSET and GND enables frequency doubling mode. When FB rises to the OLP threshold (3.65V), the switching frequency doubles - allowing the converter to maintain regulation despite up to 50% reduction in transformer inductance caused by external magnetic fields, a common issue in industrial motor control environments.
How does the HF920BGSE-Z achieve <30mW no-load consumption?
It combines active burst mode (disabling switching when FB falls below 0.5V), ultra-low quiescent current (300μA), and efficient HV start-up current source (2mA typical). During burst, the IC enters deep sleep between pulse trains, minimizing both switching and bias losses - validated at 230VAC with all secondary outputs open.
Is the SOIC8-7A package lead-free and RoHS-compliant?
Yes - HF920BGSE-Z is fully lead-free, halogen-free, and compliant with the EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. MPS confirms green status per its Quality Assurance documentation, and the device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 2 requirements for surface-mount assembly.
