28.4cc ultra-density 65W type-C adaptor with current mirror integration method

Abstract

With the increasing requirements for charging speed of portable electronic products and the demand for portable performance, the fast-charging adapter industry is facing challenges. Adapters mainly have the problems of being too large in volume, low power density and low charging efficiency. This paper introduces an ultradensity adaptor for type-c power delivery (PD) applications. The principle of active clamp flyback converter (ACF) is explained briefly. Advanced technology with Gallium nitride (GaN) devices and novel ACF controller are applied. Power density is increased by current mirror integration method. It can achieve high efficiency, especially at low line input. Finally, a 28.4cc 65W prototype based on GaN Power IC and ACF controller was made with EMI CE passing. The efficiency at full load reaches about 93% with current mirror integration method.
