ML4802 PFC/PWM Controller Combo with Green Mode
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ML 4802 is a controller for power factor corrected, switched mode power supplies that offers Green Mode operation and reduced start-up and operating currents. Green Mode is an efficiency improving circuit feature which operates automatically in low power situations. This feature helps meet the demands of Energy Star™ programs. Power Factor Correction (PFC) offers the use of lower cost bulk capacitors, reduces power line loading and stress on the switching FETs. The ML4802 includes circuits for the implementation of a leading edge, average current, “boost” type power factor corrector and a trailing edge Pulse Width Modulator (PWM).
