Not Recognizing a UVLO or OVP Fault

Some designers report that on their initial prototypes that flyback controllers using PSR fault sensing do not startup. They report either there are no gate drive pules and or VDD looks like a saw tooth presented in Figure 6-1. In this case, the flyback controller is only going into UVLO, OVP or OCP fault protection. When the fault is cleared, VDD will stop cycling between VVDDon and VVDDoff and the flyback resumes normal operation.
