Product details
Overview
The IW676-30 from Renesas Electronics is a digital synchronous rectifier (SR) controller with integrated MOSFET driver for discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) flyback converters. It replaces secondary-side rectifier diodes using lossless VDS sensing, supports output voltages from 3V to 25V, features Active Voltage Positioning (AVP) with 4.75V under-voltage threshold, and enables <20mW no-load power in QC 3.0 multi-level adapters.
For engineers reviewing the IW676-30 datasheet, IW676-30 pinout, IW676-30 application, or IW676-30 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed AVP behavior, real-world no-load performance data, and direct alternative part comparisons for fast charger and direct-charge system design.
Technical Context
The IW676-30 implements digital adaptive turn-off control to minimize deadtime without requiring an external Schottky diode. Its lossless VDS sensing detects MOSFET conduction state directly from drain-source voltage, eliminating auxiliary current-sense components.
It integrates a pulse linear regulator (PLR) enabling operation down to sub-3V outputs in Direct Charge applications and supports up to 100V drain voltage sensing-removing need for external clamping circuits in multi-level output designs up to 12V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output voltage range | 3V to 25V - supports wide-range USB PD, QC 3.0, and direct-charge adapters without re-design. |
| Drain voltage sensing limit | −1.5V to 100V - eliminates external clamping circuitry in multi-output systems up to 12V. |
| Under-voltage threshold (VUV) | 4.75V - defines AVP activation point for fast transient response in 5V adapter rails. |
| No-load power consumption | <20mW - achieved in QC 3.0 reference designs using iW1782 primary + iW636 secondary controllers. |
| Gate peak output current | ±3A - drives standard 5V logic-level SR MOSFETs with low gate charge in compact SOT23 layout. |
| Operating junction temperature | −40°C to +150°C - qualified for high-density AC/DC adapter thermal environments. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-pin SOT23 - surface-mount, thermally enhanced plastic package with θJA = 190°C/W, optimized for space-constrained USB-C chargers.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| DRAIN | Analog input | VDS sensing node for SR timing; PLR input; AVP function I/O for IW676-30 variant. |
| SOURCE | Analog input | VDS reference node; internally connected to GND in IW676-30C, but functional in IW676-30. |
| OUT | Output | High-current gate driver output (±3A peak) for external N-channel SR MOSFET. |
| GND | Ground | Power and signal reference plane; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling. |
| VCC | Power input | 5V-regulated internal supply output; powers logic and driver; requires local 1µF ceramic decoupling. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous rectifier controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| UCC24612-2QDRQ1 | Automotive-grade AEC-Q100 qualified; fixed 5V VUV; no AVP; supports up to 100V drain sensing. | Targeted at automotive infotainment power supplies; lacks AVP and sub-3V PLR support required for consumer direct-charge. | Select only for automotive environments requiring qualification; not suitable for USB PD/QC 3.0 multi-level or Direct Charge use cases. |
| MP6908AGS-Z | Fixed 4.5V VUV; no AVP; analog turn-off control; supports 3–24V output range; 100V drain rating. | Used in cost-sensitive 5V/9V adapters; lacks digital adaptive timing and PLR for sub-3V operation. | Acceptable for basic 5V/9V adapters without AVP or Direct Charge needs; does not match IW676-30's dynamic response or low-voltage capability. |

FAQ
What is the Active Voltage Positioning (AVP) function in the IW676-30?
The IW676-30 integrates Active Voltage Positioning (AVP) to detect and respond to output voltage transients faster than conventional controllers. This feature reduces output overshoot during load steps and maintains tight regulation without external compensation components. The IW676-30 implements AVP with a 4.75V under-voltage threshold, enabling optimized performance in 5V USB-C adapter rails.
Does the IW676-30 support operation below 3V output voltage?
Yes, the IW676-30 supports Direct Charge applications down to sub-3V levels using its integrated pulse linear regulator (PLR). In constant-current (CC) mode, it operates stably below 2.4V. This capability is confirmed in Figure 3.4 of the official product summary and is enabled by the PLR's ability to regulate bias from very low output voltages.
What is the maximum drain voltage the IW676-30 can sense?
The IW676-30 supports drain voltage sensing from −1.5V to 100V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This allows direct connection to SR MOSFET drains in multi-level output applications up to 12V without external clamping circuits-reducing component count and improving reliability in QC 3.0 and USB PD designs.
Is the IW676-30 pin-compatible with the IW676-30C?
Yes, the IW676-30 and IW676-30C share identical 6-pin SOT23 packaging and pinout. However, the SOURCE pin is functional in IW676-30 but internally tied to GND in IW676-30C. Designs using IW676-30 must retain the SOURCE connection; migration to IW676-30C requires verifying that GND tie does not affect system behavior.
What no-load power consumption is achievable with the IW676-30 in a reference design?
The IW676-30 achieves <20mW no-load power consumption in QC 3.0 multi-level output reference designs using iW1782 as the primary-side controller and iW636 as the secondary-side controller. This result is documented in Figure 3.3 of the official product summary and reflects the combined effect of AVP, intelligent low-power management, and digital adaptive turn-off control.
