GENERAL DESCRIPTION
A direct descendent of the industry-standard ML4824-1, the ML4827 adds a TriFault Detect™ function to guarantee that no unsafe conditions may result from single component failure in the PFC. 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 complies with IEC1000-3-2 specification. The higher maximum duty cycle of the -2 allows enhanced utilization of a given transformer core’s power handling capacity. An overvoltage comparator 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 brownout protection. The PWM section can be operated in current or voltage mode, and includes a duty cycle limit to prevent transformer saturation. FEATURES
