The LX1562 is a second-generation
family of power factor correction
controllers using a discontinuous mode
of operation. They are optimized for
electronic ballast applications. Many
improvements have been made over
the original SG3561A controller
introduced by Silicon General Semiconductor in 1992.
New features include the addition of
an internal start-up circuit eliminating
bulky external components while
allowing independent boost converter
operation. Addition of internal current
sense blanking eliminating the need for
an external R/C filter network. Internal
clamping of the error amplifier and
multiplier outputs improves turn on
overshoot characteristics and current
limiting. Special circuitry has also been
added to prevent no load runaway
conditions. And finally, output drive
clamps limiting power MOSFET gate
drive independent of supply voltage
greatly enhance the products practical
application.
Although the IC design has been
optimized for electronic ballast applications, it can also be used for power
factor correction in lower power (typ <
300W) AC-DC converters. One unique
feature of the device is encompassed
by the addition of internal logic
circuitry to detect zero crossing of the
inductor current thus maintaining the
discontinuous current mode of operation. This feature prevents large
current gaps from appearing thereby
minimizing distortion and enhancing
power factor correction.
