ML4822*
ZVS Average Current PFC Controller
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ML4822 is a PFC controller designed specifically for
high power applications. The controller contains all of the
functions necessary to implement an average current
boost PFC converter, along with a Zero Voltage Switch
(ZVS) controller to reduce diode recovery and MOSFET
turn-on losses.
The average current boost PFC circuit provides high
power factor (>98%) and low Total Harmonic Distortion
(THD). Built-in safety features include undervoltage
lockout, overvoltage protection, peak current limiting, and
input voltage brownout protection.
The ZVS control section drives an external ZVS MOSFET
which, combined with a diode and inductor, soft switches
the boost regulator. This technique reduces diode reverse
recovery and MOSFET switching losses to reduce EMI and
maximize efficiency.
FEATURES
s Average current sensing, continuous boost, leading
edge PFC for low total harmonic distortion and near
unity power factor
s Built-in ZVS switch control with fast response for high
efficiency at high power levels
s Average line voltage compensation with brownout
control
s Current fed gain modulator improves noise immunity
and provides universal input operation
s Overvoltage comparator eliminates output “runaway”
due to load removal
s UVLO, current limit, and soft-start
s Precision 1% reference
