Product details
Overview
ICE3AS02 from Infineon Technologies is a fixed-frequency (100 kHz) off-line SMPS current-mode PWM controller with integrated 500 V high-voltage startup cell, active burst mode for <100 mW standby power, ±5% peak current limiting tolerance, and auto-restart protection for overtemperature, VCC over/undervoltage, and open-loop conditions - used in universal-input AC/DC adapters and auxiliary power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the ICE3AS02 datasheet, ICE3AS02 pinout, ICE3AS02 application, or ICE3AS02 equivalent, key selection criteria include its integrated HV startup eliminating external resistors, adjustable blanking window via SoftS capacitor, precise current sensing with leading-edge blanking, and dual-package availability (PG-DIP-8 and PG-DSO-8) for layout flexibility in cost-sensitive consumer and industrial SMPS designs.
Technical Context
The ICE3AS02 implements current-mode control with internal oscillator fixed at 100 kHz, max 72% duty cycle, and propagation-delay-compensated peak current sensing to maintain stable power limit across 85–270 VAC input range. Its control unit integrates active burst mode triggered by FB voltage, enabling immediate load-jump response without output blackout.
Startup relies on an internal 500 V HV cell delivering 1.05 mA charge current to VCC until UVLO threshold (15 V) is reached, after which the cell disables - reducing no-load losses. Protection logic uses SoftS pin for both soft-start timing and auto-restart error detection, with blanking window configurable via external capacitor.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 100 kHz fixed - enables compact magnetics and predictable EMI profile in universal-input SMPS. |
| Startup Voltage Range | 500 V HV input - eliminates external high-voltage startup resistor and associated power loss. |
| Current Limit Tolerance | ±5% overall - allows accurate transformer and MOSFET sizing without overdesign for wide-input applications. |
| Standby Power | <100 mW at no load - achieved via active burst mode with continuous regulation and optocoupler feedback retention. |
| VCC Operating Range | 8.5 V to 21 V - supports robust operation across brownout and surge conditions with 6.5 V hysteresis. |
| Max Duty Cycle | 72% - balances efficiency and transformer reset margin in discontinuous conduction mode flyback designs. |
| Leading Edge Blanking | 220 ns - suppresses switching noise-induced false current-limit triggering during MOSFET turn-on. |
Pinout & Package
ICE3AS02 is available in two industry-standard packages: PG-DIP-8 (through-hole) and PG-DSO-8 (surface-mount). Pin 4 and 5 are internally shorted in PG-DIP-8; PG-DSO-8 includes a dedicated N.C. pin (Pin 6) and separates HV and Gate functions across distinct pins.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SoftS | Soft-start timing & auto-restart trigger | External capacitor sets soft-start duration and blanking window for high-load transients - no additional components needed. |
| FB | Feedback input | Directly controls duty cycle and activates active burst mode below ~4.0 V - retains optocoupler-based regulation in standby. |
| CS | Current sense input | Monitors source resistor voltage; triggers shutdown at 0.85 V threshold with 220 ns leading-edge blanking. |
| HV | High-voltage startup input | Accepts rectified AC line up to 500 V; powers internal startup cell until VCC reaches 15 V. |
| Gate | MOSFET gate driver output | Drives external PowerMOS with typical 0.72 duty cycle limit - optimized for flyback primary-side switching. |
| VCC | Controller supply | Powered by auxiliary winding; regulated between 8.5 V and 21 V - enables self-sustaining operation post-startup. |
| GND | Signal ground reference | Common return for CS, FB, SoftS, and internal bias - requires low-impedance PCB connection to minimize noise coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 500 V startup cell | Eliminates external HV resistor, reducing BOM count and no-load power loss by removing ~1 mA standby current path. |
| Active Burst Mode | Maintains closed-loop regulation at light load using same optocoupler - achieves <1% output ripple and zero black-out during load jumps. |
| Adjustable blanking window | Configured via single SoftS capacitor - disables overload detection during transient load steps, preventing false auto-restart. |
| Precision peak current limiting | ±5% tolerance with propagation delay compensation - ensures consistent power limit across input voltage range, avoiding transformer overdesign. |
| Auto Restart Protection | Single-pin (SoftS) fault detection for VCC OV/UV, overtemperature, open-loop, and overload - resets automatically when fault clears. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar off-line SMPS current-mode controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ICE3BS02 | 67 kHz fixed frequency, identical pinout and protection features - lower switching loss but larger magnetics required. | Better suited for higher-power (>15 W) flyback designs where EMI filtering is prioritized over size. | Select ICE3BS02 when transformer size is less critical than conducted EMI performance at full load. |
| ICE3AS02G | Same 100 kHz frequency and functionality, but in PG-DSO-8 package with N.C. pin instead of dual HV pins. | Enables surface-mount assembly and improved thermal dissipation in space-constrained layouts. | Choose ICE3AS02G for automated SMT production and enhanced board-level reliability in consumer-grade products. |
Compared with ICE3BS02 and ICE3AS02G, the ICE3AS02 offers through-hole compatibility and dual HV pins for simplified DIP-8 layout, making it optimal for prototyping, low-volume industrial supplies, and legacy board upgrades requiring mechanical drop-in replacement.

FAQ
What is the purpose of the SoftS pin on ICE3AS02?
The SoftS pin serves dual functions: it sets soft-start duration via an external capacitor during power-up, and acts as the fault detection node for auto-restart mode. During operation, the same capacitor defines the adjustable blanking window that temporarily disables overload protection during high-current transients - preventing false triggering while maintaining safety.
How does the integrated 500 V startup cell improve efficiency?
The integrated 500 V startup cell draws 1.05 mA from the HV pin only until VCC reaches 15 V, then switches off completely. This eliminates the constant power loss of an external high-voltage resistor, directly reducing no-load consumption and enabling sub-100 mW standby power - critical for meeting international energy regulations like EU CoC and DOE Level VI.
Can ICE3AS02 operate without an optocoupler in the feedback loop?
No - ICE3AS02 requires an optocoupler-connected FB pin for primary-side regulation and active burst mode control. The FB signal directly modulates PWM duty cycle and determines burst activation threshold (~4.0 V), so isolated feedback is mandatory for stable output voltage regulation and light-load efficiency optimization.
What is the maximum allowable VCC voltage for continuous operation?
The absolute maximum VCC voltage is 21 V, and continuous operation is guaranteed within 8.5 V to 21 V. Exceeding 21 V risks permanent damage; the device enters auto-restart mode if VCC rises above 15 V during fault conditions, but normal regulation requires staying within the specified operating range to avoid undervoltage lockout or overvoltage shutdown.
