Both the features of this controller, as well as the operation of the power factor correction circuit, are presented in detail. Based on the proposed design guideline, a design example with detailed parameters demonstrates the performance of the controller. Introduction The FAN6961 PFC controller is an 8-pin Boundary Current Mode (BCM) IC intended for controlling PFC pre-regulators. The FAN6961 provides a controlled on-time to regulate the output DC voltage and achieve natural power factor correction. The maximum on-time of the switch is programmable to ensure safe operation during AC brownouts.
