lower output capacitance and bus capacitance
can be used when no hold up time is required
flyback MOSFET VDS(fb)max 800 V
voltage rating
allows high NfbVo:
• lower voltage stress on the secondary
rectifier
• less turn on losses due to deeper valley
fast transient
-
support
no (CC output) a smaller Cbus can be used when no transient
support is required when PFC is switched off
9.1 Bus capacitor
For the bus capacitor value calculation, several constraints apply:
• Voltage rating
• OVP level on the VOSENSE pin
• Holdup time
• Auto PFC on/off with load step support
9.1.1 Voltage rating
The target is to use a single 450 V bus capacitor C4.
• VC4max = 450 V
• VbusavgPFCon = Vmainsrmsmax  2 = 305 2 = 431 V
• Vbusrippleppmax = 2VC4max – VbusavgPFCon = 38 V
The minimum bus capacitance due to the allowed voltage ripple based on the C4 voltage
rating is:
C4rating
=

2    facmin  Vbusrippleppmax  VbusavgPFCon  total

 C4rating = 2----------------5---0-4---8---3---8--1---.-6--4---3---1-------0---.--9- = 16.6 F
