and overload conditions, it would enter auto restart
mode including cycle-by-cycle current limiting.
ACT41X is to achieve no overshoot and very short
rise time even with big capacitive load (4000µF)
with the built-in fast and soft start process, .
The Quasi-Resonant (QR) operation mode can
effectively improve efficiency, reduce the EMI noise
and further reduce the components in input filter.
ACT41X is idea for application up to 36 Watt.

APPLICATIONS
• AC/DC Adaptors/Chargers for Cell Phones,
ADSL, PDAs, E-books
• Adaptors for Portable Media Player, DSCs,
and Other
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ACT41X is a high performance peak current
mode PWM controller which applies ActivePSRTM
and ActiveQRTM technology. ACT41X achieves
accurate voltage regulation without the need of an
opto-coupler or reference device.
The ACT41X is designed to achieve less than
100mW Standby Power. By applying frequency fold
back and ActiveQRTM technology, ACT41X
exceeds the latest ES2.0 efficiency standard.
ACT41X integrates comprehensive protection. In
case of over temperature, over voltage, short
winding, short current sense resistor, open loop
