3Description
The UC1854 provides active-power factor correction
for power systems that otherwise would draw nonsinusoidal current from sinusoidal power lines. This
device implements all the control functions necessary
to build a power supply capable of optimally using
available power-line current while minimizing linecurrent distortion. To do this, the UC1854 contains a
voltage amplifier, an analog multiplier and divider, a
current amplifier, and a fixed-frequency PWM.
In addition, the UC1854 contains a power MOSFETcompatiblegatedriver,7.5-Vreference,line
anticipator,load-enablecomparator,low-supply
detector, and overcurrent comparator.
The UC1854 uses average current-mode control to
accomplishfixed-frequencycurrentcontrolwith
stability and low distortion. Unlike peak current-mode,
averagecurrentcontrolaccuratelymaintains
sinusoidal line current without slope compensation
and with minimal response to noise transients.
The high reference voltage and high oscillator
amplitude of the UC1854 minimize noise sensitivity
whilefastPWMelementspermitchopping
frequencies above 200 kHz. The UC1854 is used in
single-phase and three-phase systems with line
voltages that vary from 75 V to 275 V and line
frequencies across the 50-Hz to 400-Hz range. To
reduce the burden on the circuitry that supplies power
to this device, the UC1854 features low starting
supply current.
These devices are available packaged in 16-pin
plastic and ceramic dual in-line packages, and a
variety of surface-mount packages.

Current amplifier output. This is the output of a wide-bandwidth operational amplifier that senses line
current and commands the pulse-width modulator (PWM) to force the correct current. This output
swings close to GND, allowing the PWM to force zero duty cycle when necessary. The current
amplifier remains active even if the IC is disabled. The current-amplifier output stage is an NPN
emitter-follower pullup and an 8-kΩ resistor to ground.
Oscillator timing capacitor. A capacitor from CT to GND sets the PWM oscillator frequency.
Use Equation 1:
Enable. ENA is a logic input that enables the PWM output, voltage reference, and oscillator. ENA
also releases the soft-start clamp, allowing SS to rise. When not in use, connect ENA to a 5-V supply
or pull ENA high with a 22-kΩ resistor. The ENA pin is not intended to be used as a high speed
shutdown to the PWM output.
Ground. All voltages are measured with respect to GND. VCC and VREF must be bypassed directly
to GND with an 0.1-µF or larger ceramic capacitor. The timing capacitor discharge current also
returns to this pin, so the lead from the oscillator timing capacitor to GND must also be as short and
as direct as possible.
Gate drive. The output of the PWM is a totem-pole MOSFET gate driver on GTDRV. This output is
internally clamped to 15 V so that the IC operates with VCCas high as 35 V. Use a series gate
resistor of at least 5 Ω to prevent interaction between the gate impedance and the GTDRV output
driver that might cause the GTDRV output to overshoot excessively. Some overshoot of the GTDRV
output is always expected when driving a capacitive load.
Input AC current. This input to the analog multiplier is a current. The multiplier is tailored for very low
distortion from this current input (IAC) to MULTOUT, this is the only multiplier input that must be used
for sensing instantaneous line voltage. The nominal voltage on IAC is 6 V, in addition to a resistor
from IAC to rectified 60 Hz, connect a resistor from IAC to REF. If the resistor to VREF is one-fourth
of the value of the resistor to the rectifier, then the 6-V offset is cancelled, and the line current has
minimal cross-over distortion.
Current-sense minus. This is the inverting input to the current amplifier. This input and the noninverting input, MULTOUT, remain functional down to and below GND. Take care to avoid taking
these inputs below –0.5 V because they are protected with diodes to GND.
Multiplier output and current-sense plus. The output of the analog multiplier and the non-inverting
input of the current amplifier are connected together at MULTOUT. The cautions about taking
ISENSE below –0.5 V also apply to MULTOUT. As the multiplier output is a current, this is a highimpedance input similar to ISENSE, so the current amplifier can be configured as a differential
amplifier to reject GND noise. Figure 9 shows an example of using the current amplifier differentially.
—No connection
Peak current limit. The threshold for PKLMT is 0 V. Connect this input to the negative voltage on the
current-sense resistor as shown in Figure 9. Use a resistor to VREF to offset the negative currentsense signal up to GND.
Oscillator charging current and multiplier limit set. A resistor from RSET to GND programs oscillator
charging current and maximum multiplier output. Multiplier output current does not exceed 3.75 V
divided by the resistor from RSET to GND.
Soft start. SS remains at GND as long as the device is disabled or VCCis too low. SS pulls up to
over 8 V by an internal 14-mA current source when both VCCbecomes valid and the IC is enabled.
SS acts as the reference input to the voltage amplifier if SS is below VREF. With a large capacitor
from SS to GND, the reference to the voltage regulating amplifier rises slowly, and increases the
PWM duty cycle slowly. In the event of a disable command or a supply dropout, SS quickly
discharges to ground and disables the PWM.
Voltage amplifier output. This is the output of the operational amplifier that regulates output voltage.
Like the current amplifier, the voltage amplifier remains active even if the IC is disabled with either
ENA or VCC. This means that large feedback capacitors across the amplifier stay charged through
momentary disable cycles. Voltage amplifier output levels below 1 V inhibit multiplier output. The
voltage amplifier output is internally limited to approximately 5.8 V to prevent overshoot. The voltage
amplifier output stage is an NPN emitter-follower pullup and an 8-kΩ resistor to ground.
Positive supply voltage. Connect VCC to a stable source of at least 20 mA above 17 V for normal
operation. Also bypass VCC directly to GND to absorb supply current spikes required to charge
external MOSFET gate capacitances. To prevent inadequate GTDRV signals, these devices are
inhibited unless VCCexceeds the upper undervoltage-lockout threshold and remains above the lower
threshold.
Voltage reference output. VREF is the output of an accurate 7.5-V voltage reference. This output is
capable of delivering 10 mA to peripheral circuitry and is internally short-circuit current limited. VREF
is disabled and remains at 0 V when VCCis low or when ENA is low. Bypass VREF to GND with an
0.1-µF or larger ceramic capacitor for best stability.
RMS line voltage. The output of a boost PWM is proportional to the input voltage, so when the line
voltage into a low-bandwidth boost PWM-voltage regulator changes, the output changes immediately
and slowly recovers to the regulated level. For these devices, the VRMS input compensates for line
voltage changes if it is connected to a voltage proportional to the RMS input line voltage. For best
control, the VRMS voltage must stay between 1.5 V and 3.5 V.
Voltage amplifier inverting input. This is normally connected to a feedback network and to the boost
converter output through a divider network.

The UC3854 provides active power factor correction for systems that otherwise would draw non-sinusoidal
current from sinusoidal power lines. This device implements all the control functions necessary to build a power
supply capable of optimally using available power-line current while minimizing line current distortion.
The UC3854 uses average current-mode control to accomplish fixed-frequency current control with stability and
low distortion. The UC3854, with average current mode control, allows the boost stage to move between
continuous and discontinuous modes of operation without a performance change. Unlike peak current-mode,
average current control accurately maintains sinusoidal line current without slope compensation and with minimal
response to noise transients.
The UC3854 implements all the control functions necessary to build a power supply capable of optimally using
available power-line current while minimizing line-current distortion. The UC3854 contains a voltage amplifier, an
analog multiplier and divider, a current amplifier, and a fixed-frequency PWM. In addition, the UC3854 contains a
power MOSFET compatible gate driver, 7.5-V reference, line anticipator, load-enable comparator, low-supply
detector, and over-current comparator.
The UC3854 integrated circuit contains all the circuits necessary to control a power factor corrector. The UC3854
is designed to implement average current mode control but is flexible enough to be used for a wide variety of
power topologies and control methods.
The top left corner, of the UC3854 block diagram, contains the under voltage lock out comparator and the enable
comparator. The output of both of these comparators must be true to allow the device to operate. The inverting
input to the voltage error amplifier is connected to pin VSENSE. The diodes shown around the voltage error
amplifier are intended to represent the functioning of the internal circuits rather than to show the actual devices.
The diodes shown in the block diagram are ideal diodes and indicate that the non-inverting input to the error
amplifier is connected to the 7.5-V DC reference voltage under normal operation but is also used for the soft-start
function. This configuration lets the voltage control loop begin operation before the output voltage has reached its
operating point and eliminates the turn-on overshoot which plagues many power supplies. The diode shown
between VSENSE and the inverting input of the error amplifier is also an ideal diode and is shown to eliminate
confusion about whether there might be an extra diode drop added to the reference or not. In the actual device
we do it with differential amplifiers. An internal current source is also provided for charging the soft-start timing
capacitor.
The output of the voltage error amplifier is available on pin VAOUT, of the UC3854, and it is also an input to the
multiplier. The other input to the multiplier is lAC, and this is the input for the programming wave shape from the
input rectifiers. This pin is held, internally, at 6 V and is a current input. The feedforward input is VFF, and its
value is squared before being fed into the divider input of the multiplier. The current (I
also used in the multiplier to limit the maximum output current. The output current of the multiplier is IMOand it
flows out of pin MULTOUT which is also connected to the non-inverting input of the current error amplifier.
The inverting input of the current amplifier is connected to pin ISENSE. The output of the current error amplifier
connects to the pulse width modulation (PWM) comparator where it is compared to the oscillator ramp on pin CT.
The oscillator and the comparator drive the set-reset flip-flop which, in turn, drives the high current output on pin
GTDRV. The output voltage is clamped internally to the UC3854 at 15 V so that power MOSFETs do not have
their gates over driven. An emergency peak current limit is provided on pin PKLMT and it shuts off the output
pulse when it is pulled slightly below ground. The reference voltage output is connected to pin VREF and the
input voltage is connected to pin VCC.

9.1Application Information
The UC3854 control IC is generally applicable to the control of AC-DC power supplies that require Active Power
Factor Correction off Universal AC line. Applications using this IC generally meets the Class D equipment input
current harmonics standards per EN61000-3-2. This standard applies to equipment with rated powers higher
than 75 W.
Performance of the UC3854 Power Factor correction IC in a 250-W application example has been evaluated
using a precision PFC and THD instrument. The result was a power factor of 0.999 and Total Harmonic
Distortion (THD) of 3.81%, measured to the 50th line frequency harmonic at nominal line and full load.
9.2Typical Application
The circuit of Figure 9 shows a typical application of the UC3854 as a preregulator with high power factor and
efficiency. The assembly consists of two distinct parts: the control circuit centering on the UC3854 and the power
section.
The power section is a boost converter, with the inductor operating in continuous mode. In this mode, the duty
cycle is dependent on the ratio between input and output voltages; also, the input current has low switchingfrequency ripple, which means that the line noise is low. Furthermore, the output voltage must be higher than the
peak value of the highest expected AC line voltage, and all components must be rated accordingly.
At full load, this preregulator exhibits a power factor of 0.99 at any power line voltage from 80 V to 260 V
This same circuit is used at higher power levels with minor modifications to the power stage. See Optimizing
Performance in UC3854 Power Factor Correction Applications and UC3854 Controlled Power Factor Correction

9.2.2.1 Protection Inputs
ENA (Enable): The ENA input must reach 2.5 V before the VREF and GTDRV outputs are enabled. This
provides a means to shut down the gate in case of trouble, or to add a time delay at power up. A hysteresis gap
of 200 mV is provided at this terminal to prevent erratic operation. Undervoltage protection is provided directly at
VCC, where the on and off thresholds are 16 V and 10 V. If the ENA input is unused, it must be pulled up to V
CC
through a current-limiting resistor of 100 kΩ.
SS (Soft Start): The voltage at SS pin reduces the reference voltage used by the error amplifier to regulate the
output DC voltage. With SS open, the reference voltage is typically 7.5 V. An internal current source delivers
approximately 14 mA from SS. Thus a capacitor (CSS) connected between SS and ground charges linearly from
0 V to 7.5 V in [0.54 × CSS(µF)] s.
PKLMT (Peak Current Limit): Use PKLIM to establish the highest value of current to be controlled by the power
MOSFET. With the resistor divider values shown in Figure 9, the 0-V threshold at PKLIM is reached when the
voltage drop across the 0.25-Ω current-sense resistor is 7.5 V × 2 k / 10 k = 1.5 V, corresponding to 6 A. TI
recommends a bypass capacitor from PKLIM to GND to filter out very high frequency noise.
9.2.2.2 Control Inputs
VSENSE (Output DC Voltage Sense): The threshold voltage for the VSENSE input is 7.5 V and the input bias
current is typically 50 nA. The values shown in Figure 9 are for an output voltage of 400-V DC. In this circuit, the
voltage amplifier operates with a constant low-frequency gain for minimum output excursions. The 47-nF
feedback capacitor places a 15-Hz pole in the voltage loop that prevents 120-Hz ripple from propagating to the
input current.
IAC (Line Waveform): To force the line current waveshape to follow the line voltage, a sample of the power line
voltage in waveform is introduced at IAC. This signal is multiplied by the output of the voltage amplifier in the
internal multiplier to generate a reference signal for the current control loop.
This input is not a voltage, but a current (hence IAC), and is set up by the 220-kΩ and 910-kΩ resistive divider
(see Figure 12). The voltage at IAC is internally held at 6 V, and the two resistors are chosen so that the current
flowing into IAC varies from zero (at each zero-crossing) to about 400 µA at the peak of the waveshape. The
following formulas are used to calculate these resistors:
where
•VPKis the peak line voltage(2)
(3)
ISENSE and MULTOUT (Line Current): The voltage drop across the 0.25-Ω current-sense resistor is applied to
ISENSE and MULTOUT as shown. The current-sense amplifier also operates with high low-frequency gain, but
unlike the voltage amplifier, it is set up to give the current-control loop a very wide bandwidth. This bandwidth
enables the line current to follow the line voltage as closely as possible. In the present example, this amplifier
has a zero at about 500 Hz, and a gain of about 18 dB thereafter.
VRMS (RMS Line Voltage): An important feature of the UC3854 preregulator is that it operates with a three-toone range of input line voltages, covering everything from low line in the US (85 VAC) to high line in Europe (255
VAC). This is done using line feedforward, which keeps the input power constant with varying input voltage
(assuming constant load power). To do this, the multiplier divides the line current by the square of the RMS value
of the line voltage. The voltage applied to VRMS, proportional to the average of the rectified line voltage and
proportional to the RMS value, is squared in the UC3854, and then used as a divisor by the multiplier block. The
multiplier output, at MULTOUT, is a current that increases with the current at IAC and the voltage at VAOUT, and
decreases with the square of the voltage at VRMS.
PWM Frequency: The PWM oscillator frequency in Figure 9 is 100 kHz. This value is determined by CTat pin CT
and R
at pin RSET. R
SET
must be chosen first because it affects the maximum value of I
SET
according to the
MULT
equation Equation 4.
This effectively sets a maximum PWM-controlled current. With R
Also note that the multiplier output current never exceeds twice IAC.
With the 4-kΩ resistor from MULTOUT to the 0.25-Ω current-sense resistor, the maximum current in the current-
sense resistor is:
Having thus selected R
resistor, calculate CTfor the desired PWM oscillator frequency from Equation 7.

, the current sense resistor, and the resistor from MULTOUT to the current sense
Bypass the VCC pin directly to the GND pin, using a ceramic capacitor of at least 0.1 µF. This bypass capacitor
absorbs supply current spikes required to charge external MOSFET gate capacitances.
VCC must be connected to a stable source that can deliver at least 20 mA. The VCC supply must exceed the
VCC turnon threshold to start switching operation and must remain above the VCC turnoff threshold for normal
operation.
A secondary winding on the PFC boost inductor can be used to deliver a regulated auxiliary bias supply with few
external components as shown in Figure 12. Unlike more conventional and unregulated single diode or bridge
rectifier techniques, this approach uses two diodes in a full wave configuration. This arrangement develops two
separate voltages across capacitors C1 and C2 each with 120-Hz components. However, when these two are
summed at capacitor C3, the line variations are cancelled, and a regulated auxiliary bias is obtained. The number
of turns on the secondary winding adjusts the bias supply voltage.
A bootstrap resistor and storage capacitor must be added, as shown in Figure 12 when VCCis obtained from a
PFC boost inductor auxiliary winding. These parts must be added to ensure the UC3854 controller has sufficient
VCC voltage to start up and operate through the soft-start process until sufficient voltage is available from the
auxiliary winding.
11Layout
11.1Layout Guidelines
Figure 12 and Figure 13 show good layout practice. The timing capacitor (C1) and bypass capacitors for VCC
and VREF (C3 and C5) must be connected directly from their respective pins to GND through the shortest route.
Ensure that the ISEN and MULTOUT pins do not drop more than 0.5 V below the GND pin; accomplished by
connecting a Schottky diode (D6) between GND and MULTOUT pins. The local controller GND must be
connected to the power circuit at a single point between the source of the power MOSFET and the current sense
resistor (R14). The power trace running between the power MOSFET source and current sense resistor (R14)
must be kept short. Traces from the upper terminals of R9 and R10 must run directly to each side of the current
sense resistor and not be shared with any other signal.
To minimize the possiblity of interference caused by magnetic coupling from the boost inductor, the device must
be located at least 1 in. away from the boost inductor. TI recommends the device not be placed underneath
magnetic elements.

Material type: When designated, preproduction parts are prototypes/experimental devices, and are not yet approved or released for full production. Testing and final process, including without limitation quality assurance,
reliability performance testing, and/or process qualification, may not yet be complete, and this item is subject to further changes or possible discontinuation. If available for ordering, purchases will be subject to an additional
waiver at checkout, and are intended for early internal evaluation purposes only. These items are sold without warranties of any kind.
(3)
RoHS values: Yes, No, RoHS Exempt. See the TI RoHS Statement for additional information and value definition.
(4)
Lead finish/Ball material: Parts may have multiple material finish options. Finish options are separated by a vertical ruled line. Lead finish/Ball material values may wrap to two lines if the finish value exceeds the maximum
column width.
(5)
MSL rating/Peak reflow: The moisture sensitivity level ratings and peak solder (reflow) temperatures. In the event that a part has multiple moisture sensitivity ratings, only the lowest level per JEDEC standards is shown.
Refer to the shipping label for the actual reflow temperature that will be used to mount the part to the printed circuit board.
(6)
Part marking: There may be an additional marking, which relates to the logo, the lot trace code information, or the environmental category of the part.
Multiple part markings will be inside parentheses. Only one part marking contained in parentheses and separated by a "~" will appear on a part. If a line is indented then it is a continuation of the previous line and the two
combined represent the entire part marking for that device.
