FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The STCC05 is a control circuit embedding most of the analog & power circuitry of an air conditioner or
refrigirator control module. It interfaces the micro-controller MCU with the AC power and cooling process
sections.
The voltage supply
The 5V voltage regulator supplies the micro-controller MCU. Its input voltage ranges from 7V to 18V; and
its average DC output current up to 50mA. With an output filtering capacitor of 100F, its output voltage
accuracy is better than +/- 5% in the whole operating range of the ambient temperature TAMB, the load
current IDD and the input voltage VPS , contributing directly to the ADC accuracy.
The regulator includes also an over current limiter and a thermal shutdown. The over current limiter protects the regulator against output short circuits and inrush currents during the power up. The current limiter
is made of a serial shunt resistance as current sensor and a circuit that regulates the input current. Moreover, the thermal shutdown protects the whole circuit against overload operations. It is made of a thermal
sensing junction and a hysteresis comparator that is able to switch off the passing element.

The reset circuit
This circuit ensures a Low Voltage Detection (LVD) of the output of the regulator. Most micro-controllers
have an active RESET pin in the low state: so, the /RST pin will be active at low state.
The reset comparator senses the regulator voltage VDD. The /RST pin goes high when VDD is higher than
the high threshold VH = 3.75V and after a delay time TUP; and is low when the VDD decreases below the
low threshold VL = 3.4V after the delay time TDW.
These delays are set by an external capacitor CUP connected to the /RST pin and depend on the trigger
thresholds of /RST: For CUP = 100nF, TUP= 400s with VTH= VH/2; TDW= 200s with VTH= VL/2.
The Zero Voltage Synchronization ZVS circuit
The Zero Voltage Synchronization ZVS circuit generates the signal ZVS that synchronizes the whole operation with the AC line cycle (20 ms on 50 Hz or 16.7 ms on 60 Hz). This signal allows the MCU to control
the AC loads and achieve the timing functions.
The input pin SYN is an image of the mains voltage. It is connected to either the power supply transformer
through a resistor RZV or an opto-coupler that is controlled directly by the AC line voltage. The circuit is
protected against fast line transient voltages: a robust ESD protection and a 30s digital filter are implemented to provide a higher immunity to the MCU operation. Its output signal ZVS is inverted respect to the
input signal VSYN.

- The power ground of VPS should be split from the signal ground of VDD,
- The STCC05 is placed as close as possible of the MCU,
- The supply capacitors would increase the system immunity by being placed closed to the blocks they feed,
or putting decoupling capacitors (f.i. CDD = CPS = 100nF)
- Large supply wire on the PCB should be avoided to reduce sensitivity to radiated interferences.
- A decoupling capacitor can be put on the pin INS of the speed sensor interface and the MCU reset pin
(f.i. CINS = 10nF; CUP = 100nF).

Depending of the PCB layout quality, others capacitors may be put on sensitive pins such as the output
regulator pin VDD and the zero crossing synchronization input pin SYN.

The main heat sources of the circuit during operation are the voltage regulator and the relay coil drivers.
Depending of the power supply voltage VPS, the ambient temperature TAMB, and the thermal of resistance
of the package Rth(j-a), the sum of all the coil driver currents IM is linked to the output regulator current
IDD. In order to avoid spurious thermal shutdown of the system, it is advised to respect this relationship as
shown on figures 7 and 8.
EXTENSION OF THE REGULATOR CURRENT CAPABILITY
The output current capability of the STCC05 voltage regulator can be increased in a cost effective manner
by adding an external ballast transistor and two biasing resistors. With such a circuit, the output voltage
regulation remains at 5V 5%, and the current limitation is still active.
Such a topology generates also power losses in the external power transistor especially when the supply
voltage VPS is high or the regulator is in current limiting mode. Therefore it is advised to use a package
with a suitable thermal resistance (Rth j-a).
An example is proposed in the following figure doubling the regulator current capability of the solution to
100mA while producing a current limitation typically at 110mA.

the voltage to the buzzer, this circuit feeds the buzzer with the exponential voltage induced by the charge
and the discharge of the RS CS network.
The ROH and RS resistors contribute to reduce high harmonic sound distortions. Indeed, they limit the peak
current through the buzzer, feed the buzzer with the CS capacitor voltage, and limit the current through
the low side NPN transistor of the driver.
Therefore to set rising/falling durations of the sound shape, it is advised to adjust only the value of the CS
capacitor.
The integrated RBZ resistor is selected to discharge the buzzer when the low side transistor is off, especially at the maximum operating frequency. The buzzer is completely discharged within five times the time
constant of the resistor-buzzer with = RBZ x CBUZZER.
Therefore, RBZ < 1 / (10 x FMAX x CBUZZER). Since the buzzer capacitance CBUZZER is about 20nF at the
maximum operating frequency of driver is 5kHz, this RBZ resistance is set at 1k.

Finally, the opto-coupler could be connected directly in high side mode between the SYN and the VDD
pins: the ZVS signal is then made of high level pulses synchronized with the zero crossing. However, the
coupler could be connected in low side mode with an external 10k pull-up resistor to VDD: the ZVS is now
inverted with low level pulses.
