1. Overview

1.1 Description

The EVX2002-44018A-00B is a 140W, USB Type-C power delivery (PD) 3.1 reference design board. It features a very small form factor with a high power density. Its electrical specifications are well-suited for cellphone and computer power adapters. The reference design board provides very low no-load power consumption, and its high overall efficiency meets DOE Level VI and CoC Tier 2.

The MP44018A is a critical conduction mode (CrM) / discontinuous conduction mode (DCM), multi-mode power factor correction (PFC) controller that provides simple and high-performance active PFC using minimal external components. The switching frequency (f_SW) is reduced by dead time (DT) extension technology under light-load conditions, which improves light-load efficiency. The MP44018A also achieves reduced total harmonic distortion (THD) due to variable on-time control in DCM when compared to conventional constant-on-time (COT) control.

The MPX2002 is an all-in-one flyback controller with an integrated primary driving circuit, secondary controller, synchronous rectification driver, and safety-compliant feedback. The device offers the benefits of both primary-side regulation (PSR) and secondary-side regulation (SSR).The MPX2002 adopts novel quasi-resonant (QR) mode switching when it runs in DCM. Due to this feature, the power supply has improved efficiency. Under very light loads, the controller enters burst mode to achieve very low standby power consumption. The MPX2002 offers frequency jittering to help dissipate the energy generated by conducted noise.

The EVX2002-44018A-00B is a reference design for a universal offline, isolated power supply with a 28V/5A, 20V/5A, 15V/3A, 12V/3A, 9V/3A, or 5V/3A output. This datasheet contains the complete specification of the power supply, a detailed circuit diagram, the entire bill of materials required to build the power supply, a drawing of the transformers, and performance testing.
