6.6.2
Blanking Time for over load protection
The IC controller provides a blanking window before entering into the auto restart mode due to output
overload/short circuit. The purpose is to ensure that the system will not enter protection mode unintentionally.
There are 2 kinds of the blanking time; basic and the extendable. The basic one is a built-in feature which is
set at 20ms. The extendable one is to extend the basic one with a user defined additional blanking time. The
extendable blanking time can be achieved by adding a capacitor, C
occurred ( V
> 4V ), the C
FB
0.9V to 4.0V. Then the auto restart protection will be activated. The charging time from 0.9V to 4.0V to the
C
capacitor is the extended blanking time. The total blanking time is the addition of the basic and the
BK
extended blanking time.

The measured total blanking time showing in Figure 17 is 45ms using C
In case of output overload or short circuit, the transferred power during the blanking period is limited to the
maximum power defined by the value of the sense resistor R
The noise level in BA pin can be quite high particularly in some high power application. In order to avoid mis-
triggering of other protection features, it is recommended to add a minimum 100pF filter capacitor at BA pin.
The maximum capacitor added at BA is restricted to be less than 0.65uF. Otherwise, the IC cannot be
startup properly.
