DESCRIPTION

The L4981 I.C. provides the necessary features
to achievea veryhigh power factor up to 0.99.

trol functions for designing a highefficiency-mode
power supply with sinusoidal line current con­sumption.
The L4981 can be easily used in systems with
mains voltages between 85V to 265V without any
line switch. This new PFC offers the possibility to
work at fixed frequency (L4981A) or modulated
frequency (L4981B) optimizing the size of the in-

working with an averagecurrent mode PWM con­troller, maintaining sinusoidal line current without
slope compensation.
Besides power MOSFET gate driver, precise volt­age reference (externally available), error ampli-

soft start are included. To limit the number of the
external components, the device integrates pro­tections as overvoltage and overcurrent. The
overcurrent level can be programmed using a
simple resistor for L4981A. For a better precision
and for L4981B an external divider must be used.

peak current limiting. A precise current limitation is obtained using two external
resistor only. These resistorsmust be connected between the sense resistor, Pin 2 and the
reference voltage.

3 OVP Overvoltage protection. At this input are compared an internal precise 5.1V (typ) voltage

reference with a sample of the boost output voltage obtained via a resistive voltage divider in
order to limit the maximum output peak voltage.

4 IAC Input for the AC current. An input current proportional to the rectifiedmains voltagegenerates,

via a multiplier,the current reference for the currentamplifier.

5 CA-OUT Current amplifieroutput. An external RC network determinatesthe loop gain.
6 LFF Load feedforward; this voltage input pin allowsto modify the multiplier output current

proportionally to the load, in order to give a faster response versus load transient. The best
control is obtained working between 1.5V and 5.3V. If this function is not used, connect this pin
to the voltagereference (pin = 11).

7 VRMS Input for proportional RMS line voltage. theVRMS input compesates theline voltage changes.

Connecting a low pass filter between therectified line andthe pin 7, a DC voltage proportional
to the inputline RMS voltage is obtained. The best control isreached using input voltage
between 1.5V and 5.5V. Ifthisfunction is not used connectthis pin to the voltage reference
(pin = 11).

delivering 100µA (typ) charges the external capacitor defining the soft start time constant. An
internal MOS discharge,the external soft start capacitor both in overvoltage and UVLO
conditions.

13 VA-OUT Error amplifier output, an RC network fixes the voltage loop gain characteristics.
14 VFEED Voltage error amplifier inverting input. This feedback input is connected via a voltage divider to

15 P-UVLO Programmable under voltage lock out threshold input. A voltage divider between supply

voltage and GND can be connected in orderto program the turn on threshold.

This synchronization input/output pin is CMOS logic compatible. Operating as SYNC in, a
rectangular wave must be applied at this pin. Opearting as SYNC out,a rectangular clock
pulse train is available to synchronize otherdevices.

instead the start up circuit composed by (Q2+R19+R15+Dz) has
been designed to perform a fast and effective supply in all the
conditions. Once that the L4981A/B has started, the reference

ProgrammableUnder voltage Lockout

The PCB allows to insert a couple of resistor (R22, R23) to modify
the threshold input voltage. Please refer to fig.16 and table1.

L4981A - L4981B

The evaluation board has been designed using: a
faster not dissipative start-up circuit, a diode (D2)
to speed-up the MOS start-off time and (even if a
single resistor can be used) an external divider to
improve the precision of the overcurrent thresh­old.

Further there is a possibility to change the input
threshold voltage using an external divider (R23
and R22) and if an inrush current problem arises
