The ML4804 is a controller for power factor corrected,
switched mode power supplies. Power Factor Correction
(PFC) allows the use of smaller, lower cost bulk
capacitors, reduces power line loading and stress on the
switching FETs, and results in a power supply that fully
complies with IEC1000-3-2 specification. Intended as a
BiCMOS enhancement of the industry-standard ML4824,
the ML4804 includes circuits for the implementation of
leading edge, average current, “boost” type power factor
correction and a trailing edge, pulse width modulator
(PWM). It also includes a TriFault Detect™ function to
help ensure that no unsafe conditions will result from
single component failure in the PFC. 1A gate-drive
outputs minimize the need for external driver circuits.
Low power requirements improve efficiency and reduce
component costs.
An over voltage comparator shuts down the PFC section
in the event of a sudden decrease in load. The PFC
section also includes peak current limiting and input
voltage brownout protection. The PWM section can be
operated in current or voltage mode, at up to 250kHz,
and includes an accurate 50% duty cycle limit to prevent
transformer saturation.
