Overview
R2A20133ESP#W0 from Renesas Electronics is a Critical Conduction Mode (CRM) Power Factor Correction (PFC) control IC designed to drive external MOSFETs in boost-type PFC stages. It delivers 99% power factor correction, operates with zero-current switching for low EMI, integrates dual-mode overvoltage protection (dynamic and static), and eliminates need for auxiliary winding via GND-referenced ZCD. It targets AC-DC front-end supplies in industrial LED drivers and server PSUs.
For engineers reviewing the R2A20133ESP#W0 datasheet, R2A20133ESP#W0 pinout, R2A20133ESP#W0 application, or R2A20133ESP#W0 equivalent, key selection criteria include its adjustable ZCD delay (0.87 μs typ), integrated OVP2 pin for independent output voltage monitoring, UVLO hysteresis of 1.0 V ± 0.4 V, and SOP-8 package compatibility with high-density board layouts.
Technical Context
The R2A20133ESP#W0 implements CRM control using internal ramp generation synchronized to zero-current detection on the CS pin, enabling boundary-mode operation without auxiliary winding. Its error amplifier features 2.510 V feedback reference with ±80 ppm/°C stability and transconductance of 46 μS, supporting precise DC bus regulation.
Protection architecture includes three independent overvoltage paths: dynamic OVP (Vfb × 1.04), static OVP (Vfb × 1.09), and dedicated OVP2 pin (Vfb × 1.20), plus FB low-detect (0.3 V threshold), CS open detection (72.5 mV typ), and –0.6 V OCP threshold - all implemented in hardware without external comparators.
Key Specifications

| RT (Pin 2) | Timing resistor connection | Sets ZCD delay, max ON-time, and frequency limit - 200 kΩ yields 500 kHz max and 0.87 μs ZCD delay. |
| COMP (Pin 3) | Error amplifier output | Provides compensated loop signal to PWM comparator - requires external RC network for stability per application. |
| OVP2 (Pin 4) | Dedicated overvoltage sense | Independent monitoring of PFC output - triggers shutdown if voltage exceeds Vfb × 1.20, bypassing main FB path. |
| CS (Pin 5) | Current sense input | Accepts shunt or transformer-coupled current signal - detects zero-crossing and overcurrent at –0.6 V threshold. |
| GND (Pin 6) | Power and signal reference | Common return for CS, OUT, and internal circuits - must be low-inductance connection to minimize noise coupling. |
| OUT (Pin 7) | MOSFET gate driver output | Push-pull driver capable of 20 mA sink/–20 mA source - directly interfaces with N-channel MOSFET gate. |
| VCC (Pin 8) | Supply input | Operates from 9.5–24 V - powers internal circuitry and gate driver; includes UVLO with 1.0 V hysteresis. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No auxiliary winding required | ZCD uses GND-referenced current sensing - eliminates auxiliary winding, reduces transformer complexity and cost. |
| Dual-mode OVP | Dynamic OVP (load-step response) + Static OVP (steady-state drift) - prevents false trips during transient load changes. |
| Integrated OVP2 pin | Independent high-accuracy OVP path referenced to FB - enables redundant protection without additional ICs or comparators. |
| CS open-circuit detection | 72.5 mV threshold on CS pin - detects broken sense resistor or transformer winding failure before catastrophic overcurrent. |

FAQ
What is the purpose of the OVP2 pin on the R2A20133ESP#W0?
The OVP2 pin on the R2A20133ESP#W0 provides an independent overvoltage protection path separate from the main FB loop. It senses the PFC output voltage directly and triggers shutdown when exceeding Vfb × 1.20 - ensuring redundancy against FB pin faults or resistor-divider failures. This dual-path OVP architecture enhances system safety in medical and industrial applications where single-point failure must be avoided. The R2A20133ESP#W0's OVP2 functionality is confirmed in its block diagram and electrical characteristics table on pages 3 and 6 of the datasheet.
Does the R2A20133ESP#W0 require an auxiliary winding for zero-current detection?
No, the R2A20133ESP#W0 does not require an auxiliary winding for zero-current detection. It implements GND-referenced current sensing on the CS pin, eliminating the need for auxiliary windings or current transformers. This is explicitly stated in the device description: "Because the zero current is detected by using the GND current, the ZCD Auxiliary winding is unnecessary." The R2A20133ESP#W0 achieves this through internal comparator circuitry that monitors the shunt or transformer-coupled signal referenced to GND, reducing transformer complexity and BOM cost.
What is the maximum allowable supply voltage for the R2A20133ESP#W0 VCC pin?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for the R2A20133ESP#W0 VCC pin is +24 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table on page 4 of the datasheet. Operation above this voltage risks permanent damage. The recommended operating range starts at 9.5 V (UVLO turn-on threshold) and extends up to 24 V, with typical bias designs using 12 V or 15 V. The R2A20133ESP#W0's 24 V VCC rating supports wide-input auxiliary supplies and improves margin over competing CRM controllers rated only to 18 V.
How is the ZCD delay time adjusted on the R2A20133ESP#W0?
The ZCD delay time on the R2A20133ESP#W0 is adjusted via the RT pin using an external resistor. With RT = 200 kΩ, the typical delay is 0.87 μs - a value confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 5. This delay compensates for MOSFET turn-off propagation delay and suppresses false triggering caused by current ringing at the zero-crossing point. The R2A20133ESP#W0's adjustable ZCD delay is a key differentiator for stable CRM operation across varying MOSFET types and PCB layouts.
What protection features are integrated into the R2A20133ESP#W0?
The R2A20133ESP#W0 integrates six hardware-based protections: (1) UVLO with 1.0 V hysteresis, (2) dynamic and static OVP, (3) dedicated OVP2 pin monitoring, (4) FB low-detect (0.3 V threshold), (5) CS open-circuit detection (72.5 mV threshold), and (6) overcurrent protection at –0.6 V on the CS pin. All are implemented without external components, as verified in the Features section (page 1), Block Diagram (page 3), and Electrical Characteristics tables (pages 5–6). These features enable high-reliability PFC designs with minimal external circuitry - a core design objective of the R2A20133ESP#W0.
