ML4804
DESCRIPTION
The ML4804 is a controller for power factor corrected, switched mode power supplies. Power Factor Correction (PFC) allows the use of smaller, lower cost bulk capacitors, reduces power line loading and stress on the switching FETs, and results in a power supply that fully plies with IEC1000-3-2 specification. Intended as a Bi CMOS enhancement of the industry-standard ML4824, the ML4804 includes circuits for the implementation of leading edge, average current, “boost” type power factor correction and a trailing edge, pulse width modulator (PWM). It also includes a Tri Fault Detect™ function to help ensure that no unsafe conditions will result from single ponent failure in the PFC. 1A gate-drive outputs minimize the need for external driver circuits. Low power requirements improve efficiency and reduce ponent costs. An over voltage parator shuts down the PFC section in the event of a sudden decrease in load. The PFC section also includes peak current limiting and input voltage...
