TEA19162T
PFC controller
7.4.3 PFC error amplifier (PFCCOMP and SNSBOOST pins)
The boost voltage is divided using a high-ohmic resistive divider and is supplied to the
SNSBOOST pin. The transconductance error amplifier, which compares the SNSBOOST
voltage with an accurate trimmed reference voltage (V
reg(SNSBOOST)
) is connected to this
pin. The external loop compensation network on the PFCCOMP pin filters the output
current. In a typical application, a resistor and two capacitors set the regulation loop
bandwidth.
The transconductance of the error amplifier is not constant. To avoid triggering the OVP
during start-up and during a converter transient response, the transconductance is
increased to a level of I
gm(high)
starting at V
gm(high)start
(see Figure 8).
7.4.4 Valley switching and demagnetization (PFCAUX pin)
To ensure that the TEA19162T operates in discontinuous or quasi-resonant mode, the
PFC MOSFET is switched on after the transformer is demagnetized. To reduce switching
losses and ElectroMagnetic Interference (EMI), the next stroke is started when the PFC
MOSFET drain-source voltage is at its minimum (valley switching). The demagnetization
and valley detection are measured via the SNSAUX pin.
If no demagnetization signal is detected on the SNSAUX pin, the controller generates a
demagnetization signal (t
to(demag)
; 44.5 s typical) after the external MOSFET is switched
off.
If no valley signal is detected on the PFCAUX pin, the controller generates a valley signal
(t
to(vrec)
; 3.8 s typical) after demagnetization is detected.
To protect the internal circuitry, for example during lightning events, connect a 5 k series
resistor (R
aux
; see Figure 13) to the PFCAUX pin. Also connect a 1 k (typical) external
sense resistor (R
SNSCUR
; see Figure 13) to the SNSCUR pin. To prevent incorrect
switching due to external disturbance, place the resistors close to the IC.
