TEA1713T
Resonant power supply control IC with PFC
In applications where the TEA1713 is supplied from a separate DC source (e.g. a standby
supply), the TEA1713 will not automatically stop switching if an error condition causes the
output voltage to fall. For this reason, the TEA1713 outputs are provided with
undervoltage protection (UVP output; see Section 7.9
). A UVP output event will restart the
IC if V
SNSOUT
drops below V
uvp(SNSOUT)
(typ. 2.3 V).
During start-up, the output voltage will be below V
uvp(SNSOUT)
for a time. This should not
be considered an error condition provided it doesn’t last longer than expected. For this
reason, the protection timer is started as soon as V
SNSOUT
drops below V
uvp(SNSOUT)
. The
Restart state is activated if the UVP output event is still active once the protection time has
expired.
7.5.6 OverTemperature Protection (OTP)
Accurate internal overtemperature protection is provided in the TEA1713. When the
junction temperature exceeds the overtemperature protection activation temperature, T
otp
(typ. 150 °C), the IC will go to the Thermal hold state. The TEA1713 will exit the Thermal
hold state when the temperature falls again, to around 10 °C below T
otp
.
7.6 Burst mode operation (pin SNSOUT)
The HBC and PFC controllers can be operated in Burst mode. In Burst mode the
controllers will be on for a period, then off for a period. Burst mode operation increases
efficiency under low-load conditions.
A low-load condition can be detected using a simple external circuit that makes use of the
information from the feedback loop or from the average primary current. The detection
circuit can pull down pin SNSOUT to pause operation of the TEA1713 for a burst-off time.
Both controllers, or only the HBC controller, can be paused during the burst-off time:
• Burst-off level for HBC, V
burst(HBC)
(typ. 1 V).
When V
SNSOUT
drops below V
burst(HBC)
, operation of the HBC controller will be
suspended. Both the high-side and the low-side power switches will be off. The PFC
continues to operate normally. When V
SNSOUT
rises above V
burst(HBC)
again, the HBC
controller will resume normal operation, without executing a soft start sequence.
• Burst-off level for PFC, V
burst(PFC)
(typ. 0.4 V).
When V
SNSOUT
drops below V
burst(PFC)
, operation of the PFC controller will also be
suspended (the HBC will have been paused already). When V
SNSOUT
rises above
V
burst(PFC)
again, the PFC controller will resume normal operation via a PFC soft start
(see Section 7.7.6
).
To ensure Burst mode is not activated before the output voltage becomes valid, a current
from the SNSOUT pin (typ. 100 μA) will hold V
SNSOUT
at V
pu(SNSOUT)
, which is above both
burst levels. The resistance between the SNSOUT pin and ground should therefore be
greater than 20 kΩ.
7.7 PFC controller
The PFC controller converts the rectified universal mains voltage into an accurately
regulated boost voltage of 400 V (DC). It operates in quasi-resonant or discontinuous
conduction mode and is controlled via an on-time control system. The resulting mains
harmonic current emissions of a typical application will easily meet the class-D MHR
requirements.
