Functional Description
2.3.2
PFC Bus Overvoltage and Open Loop
The bus voltage loop control is completely integrated (Figure 15) and provided by an 8-bit sigma-delta A/D
converter with a typical sampling rate of 280 µs and a resolution of 4 mV/bit. After leaving monitoring, the IC
starts to power up (VCC > 14.0 V). After power-up, the IC senses the bus voltage below 12.5 % (open loop) or
above 105 % (bus overvoltage) for 80 µs – 130 µs. In the case of bus overvoltage (VBUSrated > 109 %) or open
loop (VBUSrated < 12.5 %), the IC shuts off the gate drives of the PFC within 5 µs or 1 µs respectively. In this case,
the PFC restarts automatically when the bus voltage is within the corridor (12.5 % < VBUSrated < 105 %) again. If
the bus voltage is valid after the 130 µs, the bus voltage sensing is set to 12.5 % < VBUSrated < 109 %. If these
thresholds are departed from for longer than 1 µs (open loop) or 5 µs (overvoltage), the PFC gate drive stops
working until the voltage drops below 105 % or exceeds the 12.5 % level. If the bus overvoltage (> 109 %) lasts
for longer than 625 ms in run mode, the inverter gates also shut off and a power-down with complete restart is
attempted (Figure 15).

2.3.3
PFC Bus Voltage Levels 95 % and 75 %
When the rated bus voltage is in the corridor of 12.5 % < VBUSrated < 109 %, the IC will check whether the bus
voltage exceeds the 95 % threshold (Figure 15) within 80 ms before entering soft start phase. Another threshold
is activated when the IC enters the run mode. If the rated bus voltage drops below 75 % for longer than 84 µs, a
power-down with a complete restart is attempted if a counter exceeds 800 ms. In the case of short-term bus
under voltage (the bus voltage reaches its working level in run mode before exceeding typically 800 ms - min.
500 ms) the IC skips phases and starts up directly in saturation control. The internal reference level of the bus
voltage sense VPFCVS is 2.5 V (100 % of the rated bus voltage) with a high accuracy. Surge protection is
activated in the case of a rated bus voltage of VBUS > 109 % and a low-side current sense voltage of VLSCS >
1.6 V in extended saturation mode or of VLSCS > 0.8 V in run mode for longer than 500 ns in RUN Mode.
