Summary

General Description

The 100W PD3.0 Evaluation Board (EVB1) is composed of four main controllers, AP33510, APR349, AP43771V and UCC28056B (TI). The AP33510, a highly integrated QuasiResonant (QR) controller with direct Enhancement-mode Gallium Nitride (E-Gann) driver integration, is optimally designed to meet ultra-low standby power and high power density (HPD) charger applications. The APR349, a secondary side synchronous rectifier (SR) controller, is adopted for efficiency optimization. The AP43771V, a PD3.0 PPS protocol controller, automatically manages the PD3.0 PPS attachment process for the attached USB Type C ® -equipped device under charge (DUC), regulates the feedback information of the charger to fulfill voltage and current requirements from DUC. By adopting growing popularity of E-Gann FETs, the 100W EVB1 exemplifies HPD charger design with system BOM optimization to meet market trend.

3.4 Schematics Description
3.4.1 AC Input Circuit & Differential Filter
The Fuse F1 protects against over-current conditions which occur when some main components fails. The L4 and L5 are common-mode chocks for the common mode  noise suppression. The BD1 and BD2 are bridge rectifier which converts alternating current and voltage into direct current and voltage. The C4, C9, L1 are composed of the  Pi filter for filtering the differential switching noise back to AC source.

3.4.2 AP33510 PWM Controller
AP33510, a highly integrated Quasi-Resonant Fullback (QR) controller, integrates high-voltage start-up function through HV pin and X-capacitor discharging function. It also  integrates a VCC LDO circuit, which allows the LDO to regulate the wide range VCCL to an acceptable value. This makes the AP33510 an ideal candidate for wide range  output voltage applications such as USB PD3.0 PPS. With embedded E-Gann drive, the AP33510 provides a safe and accurate gate signal to control switch Q4 (GaN FET)  operations and achieve high-power density charger applications. At no load or light load, the AP33510 enters the burst mode to minimize standby power consumption.

3.4.3 APR349 Synchronous Rectification (SR) MOSFET Driver
As a high performance solution, the APR349 is a secondary-side SR controller to effectively reduce the secondary side rectifier power dissipation which works in both QR/DCM/CCM operation.

3.4.4 AP43771V PD 3.0 Decoder & Protection on/off N MOSFET and Interface to Power Devices
Few important pins provide critical protocol decoding and regulation functions in AP43771V:

1. CC1 & CC2 (Pin 11, 10): CC1 & CC2 (Configuration Channel 1 & 2) are defined by USB Type-C spec to provide the channel communication link between power source and sink device.
2. Constant Voltage (CV): The CV is implemented by sensing VFB (pin 8) and comparing with internal reference voltage to generate a CV compensation signal on the  OCDRV pin (pin 5). The output voltage is controlled by firmware through CC1/CC2 channel communication with the sink device.
3. Constant Current (CC): The CC is implemented by sensing the current sense resistor (RCS, 10mΩ, 1%, Low TCR) and compared with internal programmable reference  voltage. The output current is controlled by firmware through CC1/CC2 channel communication with the sink device.
4. Loop Compensation: R19 & C19 form the voltage loop compensation circuit, and C18 form the current loop compensation circuit.
5. OCDRV (Pin5): It is the key interface link from secondary decoder (AP43771V) to primary regulation circuit (AP33510). It is connected to Opto-coupler PC1 Pin 2  (Cathode) for feedback information based on all sensed CC1 & CC2 signals for getting desired Vbus voltage & current.
6. PWR_EN (Pin2) to N-MOSFET Gate: The pin is used to turn on/off N-MOSFET (Q1) to enable/disable voltage output to the Bus.
