Description

The HiperPFS device family members incorporate a continuous

conduction mode (CCM) boost PFC controller, gate driver, and

high voltage power MOSFET in a single, low-proﬁle eSIP™

power package that is able to provide near unity input power

factor. The HiperPFS devices eliminate the PFC converter’s

need for external current sense resistors, the power loss

associated with those components, and leverages an innovative

control technique that adjusts the switching frequency over

output load, input line voltage, and even input line cycle. This

control technique is designed to maximize efﬁciency over the

entire load range of the converter, particularly at light loads.

Additionally, this control technique signiﬁcantly minimizes the

EMI ﬁltering requirements due to its wide-bandwidth spread

spectrum effect. HiperPFS includes Power Integrations’

standard set of comprehensive protection features, such as

integrated soft-start, UV, OV, brown-in/out, and hysteretic thermal

shutdown. HiperPFS also provides cycle-by-cycle current limit

for the power MOSFET, power limiting of the output for over-

load protection, and pin-to-pin short-circuit protection.

HiperPFS’s innovative variable-frequency continuous conduction

mode of operation (VF-CCM) minimizes switching losses by

maintaining a low average switching frequency, while also

varying the switching frequency in order to suppress EMI, the

traditional challenge with continuous-conduction-mode

solutions. Systems using HiperPFS typically reduce the total X

and Y capacitance requirements of the converter, the inductance

of both the boost choke and EMI noise suppression chokes,

reducing overall system size and cost. Additionally, compared

with designs that use discrete MOSFETs and controllers,

HiperPFS devices dramatically reduce component count and

board footprint while simplifying system design and enhancing

reliability. The innovative variable-frequency, continuous

conduction mode controller enables the HiperPFS to realize all

of the beneﬁts of continuous-conduction mode operation while

leveraging low-cost, small, simple EMI ﬁlters.

Many regions mandate high power factor for many electronic

products with high power requirements. These rules are

combined with numerous application-speciﬁc standards that

require high power supply efﬁciency across the entire load

range, from full load to as low as 10% load. High efﬁciency at

light load is a challenge for traditional PFC approaches in which

ﬁxed MOSFET switching frequencies cause ﬁxed switching

losses on each cycle, even at light loads. HiperPFS simpliﬁes

compliance with new and emerging energy-efﬁciency standards

over a broad market space in applications such as PCs, LCD

TVs, notebooks, appliances, pumps, motors, fans, printers, and

LED lighting.

HiperPFS advanced power packaging technology and high

efﬁciency simpliﬁes the complexity of mounting the package

and thermal management, while providing very high power

capabilities in a single compact package; these devices are

suitable for PFC applications from 75 W to 1 kW

Pin Functional Description

VOLTAGE MONITOR (V) Pin:

The V pin is tied to the rectiﬁed AC rail through an external

resistor. Internal circuitry detects the peak of the input line

voltage which resembles a full-wave rectiﬁed waveform. The

rectiﬁed high-voltage bus is connected directly to the V pin

voltage through a large resistor (4 MW for PFS70x and PFS71x;

9 MW for PFS72x) to minimize power dissipation and standby

power consumption. A small ceramic capacitor (0.1 mF for

PFS70x and PFS71x; 0.047 mF for PFS72x) is required from the

VOLTAGE MONITOR pin to SIGNAL GROUND pin to bypass

any switching noise present on the rectiﬁed bus. This pin also

features both brown-in and brown-out protection.

FEEDBACK (FB) Pin:

The FEEDBACK pin is high input-impedance reference terminal

that connects to a feedback resistor network. This pin will also

feature fast overvoltage and undervoltage detection circuitry

that will disengage the internal power MOSFET in the event of a

system fault. A 10 nF capacitor is required between the

FEEDBACK to SIGNAL GROUND pins; this capacitor must be

placed very close to the device on the PCB to bypass any

switching noise. This pin is also used for loop compensation.

BIAS POWER (VCC) Pin:

This is a 10-12 VDC bias supply used to power the IC. The bias

voltage must be externally clamped to prevent the VCC pin

from exceeding 13.4 VDC.

SIGNAL GROUND (G) Pin:

Discrete components used in the feedback circuit, including

loop compensation, decoupling capacitors for the supply (VCC)

and line-sense (V) must be referenced to the G pin. The

SIGNAL GROUND pin must not be tied to the SOURCE pin.

SOURCE (S) Pin:

This pin is the source connection of the power switch.

DRAIN (D) Pin:

This is the tab and drain connection of the internal power switch.

Functional Description

The HiperPFS is a variable switching frequency boost PFC

solution. More speciﬁcally, it employs a constant amp-second

on-time and constant volt-second off-time control algorithm.

This algorithm is used to regulate the output voltage and shape

the input current to comply with regulatory harmonic current

limits (high power factor). Integrating the switch current and

controlling it to have a constant amp-sec product over the

on-time of the switch allows the average input current to follow

the input voltage. Integrating the difference between the output

and input voltage maintains a constant volt-second balance

dictated by the electro-magnetic properties of the boost inductor

and thus regulates the output voltage and power.

More speciﬁcally, the control technique sets constant volt-

seconds for the off-time (tOFF). The off-time is controlled such

that:

(1)

Since the volt-seconds during the on-time must equal the

volt-seconds during the off-time, to maintain ﬂux equilibrium in

the PFC choke, the on-time (tON) is controlled such that:

(2)

The controller also sets a constant value of charge during each

on-cycle of the power MOSFET. The charge per cycle is varied

gradually over many switching cycles in response to load

changes so it can be regarded as substantially constant for a

half line cycle. With this constant charge (or amp-second)

control, the following relationship is therefore also true:

(3)

Substituting tON from (2) into (3) gives:

(4)

The relationship of (4) demonstrates that by controlling a constant

amp-second on-time and constant volt-second off-time, the input

current IIN is proportional to the input voltage VIN, therefore

providing the fundamental requirement of power factor correction.

This control produces a continuous mode power switch current

waveform that varies both in frequency and peak current value

across a line half-cycle to produce an input current proportional

to the input voltage.

Control Engine

The controller features a low bandwidth error-ampliﬁer which

connects its non-inverting terminal to an internal voltage

reference of 6 V. The inverting terminal of the error-ampliﬁer is

available on the external FEEDBACK pin which connects to the

external feedback resistor divider, transient load speed-up and

compensation networks to regulate the output voltage.

The internal sense-FET switch current is integrated and scaled

by the input voltage peak detector current sense gain (MON) and

compared with the error-ampliﬁer signal (VE) to determine the

cycle on-time. Internally the difference between the input and

output voltage is derived and the resultant is scaled, integrated,

and compared to a voltage reference (VOFF) to determine the

cycle off-time. Careful selection of the internal scaling factors

produce input current waveforms with very low distortion and

high power factor.

The input voltage is internally synthesized using the switch duty

cycle and a 7 kHz low pass ﬁlter. This synthesized input voltage

representation is subtracted from a ﬁxed reference voltage (6 V)

to derive a current source proportional to (VO-VIN). Please refer to

Figure 3.

Line Feed-Forward Scaling Factor (MON)

The VOLTAGE MONITOR (V) pin current is used internally to

derive the peak of the input line voltage which is used to scale

the gain of the current sense signal through the MON variable.

This contribution is required to reduce the dynamic range of the

control feedback signal as well maintain a constant loop gain

over the operating input line range. This line-sense feed-

forward gain adjustment is proportional to the square of the

peak rectiﬁed AC line voltage and is adjusted as a function of V

pin current. The line-sense feed-forward gain is also important

in providing a switch power limit over the input line range.

Besides modifying brown- in/out thresholds, the V pin resistor

also affects power limit of the device

This characteristic is optimized to maintain a relatively constant

internal error-voltage level at full load from an input line of 100

to 230 VAC input (PFS704-716).

Beyond the speciﬁed peak power rating of the device, the

internal power limit feature will regulate the output voltage

below the set regulation threshold as a function of output

overload beyond the peak power rating. Figure 5 illustrates the

typical regulation characteristic as function of load.

Soft-Start with Pin-to-Pin Short-Circuit Protection

Since the FEEDBACK pin is the interface for output voltage

regulation (resistor voltage divider to output voltage) as well as

loop compensation (series RC), the typical application circuit of

the HiperPFS requires an external transistor network to overcome

the inherently slow feedback loop response. Speciﬁcally, an

Duration

NPN and PNP transistor are tied between the output voltage

divider resistors to limit the maximum overshoot and under-

shoot during a load transient response. To reduce switch and

output diode current stress at start-up, the HiperPFS slews the

internal error-voltage from zero to its steady-state value at

start-up. Figure 6 illustrates the relative relationship between

the application of VCC and power limit soft-start function through

the internal error-voltage.

The error-voltage has a controlled slew rate of 0.25 V/ms at

start-up, corresponding to the tSOFT time duration for a full scale

error voltage of 5 V.

The beginning of soft-start is gated by the VCC+, IUV+ and

FEEDBACK pin voltage thresholds in the sequence described

below. Once the applied VCC is above the VCC+ threshold, the

sensed V pin current is above IUV+ and the feedback pin voltage

is above FBOFF, the IC applies a ~6 mA current sink through the

VOLTAGE MONITOR pin and checks that the FEEDBACK pin

voltage is still above the FBOFF threshold. This checks to ensure

that the FEEDBACK and V pins are not shorted together. In the

event that the FEEDBACK pin voltage is below the FBOFF

threshold the V pin holds the 6 mA current sink indeﬁnitely until

the FEEDBACK pin is above the FBOFF. If the FEEDBACK pin

voltage is above FBOFF, the IC releases the current source and

resumes with normal soft-start and operation. Figure 7

illustrates this sequence.

Timing Supervisor and Operating Frequency Range

Since the controller is expected to operate with a variable

switching frequency over the line frequency half-cycle, typically

spanning a range of 24 – 95 kHz, the controller also features a

timing supervisor function which monitors and limits the

maximum switch on-time and off-time as well as ensures a

minimum cycle off-time. The timer supervisor limits the normal

operating frequency range for loads in excess of 10% of the

device peak power rating.

Figure 8a shows the typical half-line frequency proﬁle of the

device switching frequency as a function of input voltage at

peak load conditions. Figure 8b shows for a given line condition

the effect of EcoSmart to the switching frequency as a function

of load (PFS704-716). The switching frequency is not a function

of boost choke inductance.

EcoSmart

The PFS704-716 controllers includes an EcoSmart mode

wherein the internal error signal (VE) is used to detect the

converter output power. Since the internal error-signal is

directly proportional to the output power, this signal level is used

to set the average switching frequency as a function of output

power. The off-time integrator control reference (VOFF) is

controlled with respect to the internal error-voltage level (output

power) to allow the converter to maintain output voltage

regulation and relatively ﬂat conversion efﬁciency between 10%

to 100% of rated load which is essential to meet many efﬁciency

directives.

The degree of frequency slide is also controlled as a function of

peak input line voltage, at high input line the maximum off-time

voltage reference at zero error-voltage will be approximately 1/2

of the maximum value at low input line conditions.

The lower VOFF slope reduces the average frequency swing for

high input line operation.

Protection Modes

VOLTAGE MONITOR (V) Pin Shutdown

The VOLTAGE MONITOR pin features a shutdown protection

mode which can be used with the VOLTAGE MONITOR pin

resistor or external circuitry to cover system faults. During

start-up (1 V < VFB < 5.8 V) in the event the current through the

VOLTAGE MONITOR pin exceeds the IV(OFF) threshold for a

duration exceeding approximately (1 ms), the IC disables the

internal MOSFET for the entire duration that the V pin current is

above IV(OFF). In normal operation, if the current through the V

pin exceeds the IV(OFF) threshold for a duration exceeding tV(OFF),

the IC will reinitiate the start-up sequence.

Brown-In Protection (IUV+)

The VOLTAGE MONITOR pin features an input line undervoltage

detection to limit the minimum start-up voltage detected

through the V pin. This detection threshold will inhibit the

device from starting at very low input AC voltage.

Brown-Out Protection (IUV-)

The V pin features a brown-out protection mode wherein the

HiperPFS will turn-off when the V pin current is below the Line

UV-threshold for a period exceeding the tREFRESH time period. In

the event a single half-line cycle is missing (normal operating

line frequency is 47 to 63 Hz) the brown-out protection will not

be activated. The HiperPFS shutdown in effect gradually

reduces the internal error-voltage to zero volts at rate of 1 V/ms

to decay the power MOSFET on-time to zero. At peak power

(VE ~5 V) the shutdown time will be approximately 5 ms. The

internal error-voltage is held at 0 V for as long as the input peak

voltage is below the brown-in (IUV+) threshold. The internal

error-voltage controlled slew to 0 V gradually reduces the switch

on-time to zero to deplete energy stored in the boost choke as

well as input EMI ﬁlter for power-down. Once the error-voltage

reaches zero volts the controller is effectively in an off-state

(gated by 5 ms timer) and will restart once all the conditions of

soft-start are satisﬁed.

The brown-out threshold is reduced to IUV-SS during start-up until

the FEEDBACK pin exceeds approximately 5.8 V. Temporarily

reducing the brown-out threshold prevents false turn-off at high

power start-up when the voltage drop across the input bridge

rectiﬁer and ﬁlter stage may cause the rectiﬁed input to sag

below the brown-out threshold.

Fast Output Voltage Overvoltage Protection (FBOV)

The FEEDBACK pin features a means to detect an output

overvoltage condition through the FEEDBACK pin and disables

the power MOSFET until the sensed output voltage falls below

the FBOV threshold. A deglitch ﬁlter (~2 ms) is used to prevent

the controller from falsely triggering this mode. An FBOV event in

excess of the 2 ms delay will terminate the switch cycle immediately.

This detection circuit also includes some hysteresis.

Output Voltage Undervoltage Protection (FBUV)

The FEEDBACK pin features an undervoltage detection to

detect an output overload or a broken feedback loop. If the IC

detects the falling edge on the FEEDBACK pin that has fallen

below FBUV threshold, it will turn-off the internal power MOSFET

and reinitiate the start-up sequence. Similar to the FBOV

detection, this mode has a deglitch ﬁlter of approximately 100 ms.

VCC Undervoltage Protection (UVLO)

The BIAS POWER (VCC) pin has an undervoltage lock-out

protection which inhibits the IC from starting unless the applied

VCC voltage is above the VCC+ threshold. The IC initiates a

soft-start once the VCC pin voltage exceeds the VCC+ threshold.

After start-up the IC will continue to operate until the VCC pin

voltage has fallen below VCC- level. The absolute maximum

voltage of the VCC pin is 13.4 V which must be externally limited

to prevent damage to the IC.

Over-Current Protection

The device includes a cycle-by-cycle over-current-protection

(OCP) mode which protects the device in the event of a

catastrophic fault. The OCP mode in the PFS704-716 is input

line dependent as shown in Figure 10. The intention of OCP in

this device is strictly protection of the internal power MOSFET

and is not intended to protect the converter from output

short-circuit or overload fault conditions.

The PFS704-716 controller latches the high line OCP for a 1/2

line cycle and updates the OCP status after the expiration of a

5 ms block-out timer. This feature has particular beneﬁt for

hard-start after an AC line cycle drop where the peak detector

may falsely detect a low input line condition even though the

input is at high input line.

The leading edge blanking circuit inhibits the current limit

comparator for a short time (tLEB) after the power MOSFET is

turned on. This leading edge blanking time must be set so that

current spikes caused by capacitance and rectiﬁer reverse

recovery time will not cause premature termination of the

MOSFET conduction.

Safe Operating Range (SOA) Mode

Since the cycle-by-cycle OCP mechanism described above

does not prevent the possibility of inductor current “stair-

casing”, an SOA mode is required. Rapid build up of the device

current can occur in event of inductor saturation or when the

input and output voltages are equal (non or very short

inductor reset time).

The SOA mode is triggered whenever the device reaches

current limit (IOCP) and the on-time is less than tSOA.

The SOA mode forces an off-time equal to tOCP and pulls the

internal error-voltage (VE) down to approximately 1/2 of its set

value.

Open FEEDBACK Pin Protection

The FEEDBACK pin also features a static current of IFB that is

continuously sourced out of the pin to protect against a fault

related to an open FEEDBACK pin. The internal current source

introduces a static offset to the output regulation which must be

accounted for in selecting the output feedback regulation

components.

Hysteretic Thermal Shutdown

The thermal shutdown circuitry senses the controller die

temperature. The threshold is set at 118 °C typical with a 50 °C

hysteresis. When the die temperature rises above this threshold

(118 °C +8/-7 °C), the power MOSFET switching is disabled and

remains disabled until the die temperature falls by ~50 °C, at

which point the device will reinitiate a soft-start and start-up

sequence.

Application Example

A High Efﬁciency, 347 W, 380 VDC Universal Input PFC

The circuit shown in Figure 11 is designed using a PFS714EG

device from the HiperPFS family of integrated PFC controllers.

This design is rated for a continuous output power of 347 W

and provides a regulated output voltage of 380 VDC nominal

maintaining a high input power factor and overall efﬁciency from

light load to full load.

Fuse F1 provides protection to the circuit and isolates it from the

AC supply in case of a fault. Diode bridge BR1 rectiﬁes the AC

input. Capacitors C3, C4, C5, C6 and C19 together with

inductors L1, L2, L3 and L4 form the EMI ﬁlter reducing the

common mode and differential mode noise. Resistors R1, R3

and CAPZero, IC U2 are required to discharge the EMI ﬁlter

capacitors once the circuit is disconnected. CAPZero

eliminates static losses in R1 and R2 by only connecting these

components across the input when AC is removed.

The boost converter stage consists of inductor L5, diode rectiﬁer

D2 and the HiperPFS IC U1. This converter stage works as a

boost converter and controls the input current of the power

supply while simultaneously regulating the output DC voltage.

Diode D1 prevents a resonant build up of output voltage at start-

up by bypassing inductor L5 while simultaneously charging

output capacitor C15. Thermistor RT1 limits the inrush input

current of the circuit at start-up and prevents saturation of L5.

In most high-performance designs, a relay will be used to

bypass the thermistor after start-up to improve power supply

efﬁciency. Therefore efﬁciency measurement, that represents

the high performance conﬁguration, the thermistors should be

shorted. Capacitors C14 and C21 are used for reducing the

loop length and area of the output circuit to reduce EMI and

overshoot of voltage across the drain and source of the

MOSFET inside U1 at each switching instant.

The PFS714EG IC requires a regulated supply of 12 V for

operation and must not exceed 13.4 V. Resistors R6, R16, R17,

Zener diode VR1, and transistor Q3 form a shunt regulator that

prevents the supply voltage to IC U1 from exceeding 12 V.

Capacitors C8, C18 and C20 ﬁlter the supply voltage and

provide decoupling to ensure reliable operation of IC U1. Diode

D5 prevents destruction of U1 if the auxiliary input is inadvertently

connected reverse polarity.

The rectiﬁed AC input voltage of the power supply is sensed by

IC U1 using resistors R4, R5 and R19. The capacitor C12 ﬁlters

any noise on this signal.

Divider network comprising of resistors R9, R10, R11, R12, R13,

and R14 are used to scale the output voltage and provide

feedback to IC U1. The circuit comprising of diode D4,

transistor Q1, Q2 and the resistors R12 and R13 form a non-

linear feedback circuit which improves the load transient

response by improving the response time of the PFC circuit.

Resistor R7, R8, R15, and capacitors C13 and C17 are required

for shaping the loop response of the feedback network. The

combination of resistor R8 and capacitor C13 provide a low

frequency zero and the resistor R15 and capacitor C13 form a

low frequency pole.

Design, Assembly, and Layout Considerations

Power Table

The data sheet power table as shown in Table 2 represents the

maximum practical continuous output power based on the

following conditions:

For the universal input devices (PFS704-716):

1. An input voltage range of 90 VAC to 264 VAC

2. Overall efﬁciency of at least 93% at the lowest operating

voltage

3. Use of ultrafast recovery diode or high performance diode for

PFC output.

4. Sufﬁcient heat sinking to keep device temperature ≤100 ºC

5. 380 V to 385 V nominal output

For the 230 V only devices (PFS723-729):

1. An input voltage range of 180 VAC to 264 VAC

2. Overall efﬁciency of at least 96% at the lowest operating

voltage

3. Use of ultrafast recovery diode or high performance diode

for PFC output.

4. Sufﬁcient heat sinking to keep device temperature ≤100 ºC

5. 380 V to 385 V nominal output

Operation beyond the limits stated above will require derating.

Use of a nominal output voltage higher than 390 V is not

recommended for HiperPFS based designs. Operation at

voltages higher than 390 V can result in higher than expected

drain-source voltage during line and load transients.

HiperPFS Selection

Selection of the optimum HiperPFS part depends on required

maximum output power, PFC efﬁciency and overall system

efﬁciency (when used with a second stage DC-DC converter),

heat sinking constraints, system requirements and cost goals.

The HiperPFS part used in a design can be easily replaced with

the next higher or lower part in the power table to optimize

performance, improve efﬁciency or for applications where there

are thermal design constraints. Minor adjustments to the

inductance value and EMI ﬁlter components may be necessary

in some designs when the next higher or the next lower

HiperPFS part is used in an existing design for performance

optimization.

Every HiperPFS family part has an optimal load level where it

offers the most value. Operating frequency of a part will change

depending on load level. Change of frequency will result in

change in peak to peak current ripple in the inductance used.

Change in current ripple will affect input PF and total harmonic

distortion of input current.

Input Fuse and Protection Circuit

The input fuse should be rated for a continuous current above

the input current at which the PFC turns-off due to input under

voltage. This voltage is referred to as the brown-out voltage.

The fuse should also have sufﬁcient I2t rating in order to avoid

nuisance failures during start-up. At start a large current is

drawn from the input as the output capacitor charges to the

peak of the applied voltage. The charging current is only limited

by any inrush limiting thermistors, impedance of the EMI ﬁlter

inductors and the forward resistance of the input rectiﬁer

diodes.

A MOV will typically be required to protect the PFC from line

surges. Selection of the MOV rating will depend on the energy

level (EN1000-4-5 Class level) to which the PFC is required to

withstand.

Input EMI Filter

The variable switching frequency of the HiperPFS effectively

modulates the switching frequency and reduces conducted EMI

peaks associated with the harmonics of the fundamental

switching frequency. This is particularly beneﬁcial for the

average detection mode used in EMI measurements.

The PFC is a switching converter and will need an EMI ﬁlter at

the input in order to meet the requirements of most safety

agency standards for conducted and radiated EMI. Typically a

common mode ﬁlter with X capacitors connected across the

line will provide the required attenuation of high frequency

components of input current to an acceptable level. The

leakage reactance of the common mode ﬁlter inductor and the

X capacitors form a low pass ﬁlter. In some designs, additional

differential ﬁlter inductors may have to be used to supplement

the differential inductance of the common mode choke.

A ﬁlter capacitor with low ESR and high ripple current capability

should be connected at the output of the input bridge rectiﬁer.

This capacitor reduces the generation of the switching frequency

components of the input current ripple and simpliﬁes EMI ﬁlter

design. Typically, 0.33 mF per 100 W should be used for

universal input designs and 0.15 mF per 100 W of output power

should be used for 230 VAC only designs.

It is often possible to use a higher value of capacitance after the

bridge rectiﬁer and reduce the X capacitance in the EMI ﬁlter.

Regulatory requirements require use of a discharge resistor to

be connected across the input (X) capacitance on the AC side

of the bridge rectiﬁer. This is to ensure that residual charge is

dissipated after the input voltage is removed when the

capacitance is higher than 0.1 mF. Use of CAPZero integrated

circuits from Power Integrations, helps eliminate the steady

state losses associated with the use of discharge resistors

connected permanently across the X capacitors.

Inductor Design

It is recommended that the inductor be designed with the

maximum operating ﬂux density less than 0.3 T and a peak ﬂux

density less than 0.42 T at maximum current limit when a ferrite

core is used. If a core made from Sendust or MPP is used, the

ﬂux density should not exceed 1 T. A powder core inductor will

have a signiﬁcant drop in inductance when the ﬂux density

approaches 1 T.

For high-line only designs, the value of KP (the ratio of peak to

ripple current) of the drain current at the peak of the input

voltage waveform should be kept below 0.5 for ferrite core and

Rev. D 03/12

PFS704-729EG

www.powerint.com

0.675 for powder core designs respectively. For universal input

designs, KP should be kept below 0.25 for ferrite core and 0.675

for powder core respectively. For high performance designs,

use of Litz wire is recommended to reduce copper loss due to

skin effect and proximity effect. For toroidal inductors the

numbers of layers should be less than 3 and for bobbin wound

inductors, inter layer insulation should be used to minimize inter

layer capacitance.

Output Diode

For a 385 V nominal PFC output voltage, use of a diode with

600 V or higher PIV rating is recommended. CCM operation

with hard switching demands that diodes with low reverse

recovery time and reverse recovery charge should be used. The

variable frequency CCM operation of HiperPFS reduces diode

switching losses as compared to ﬁxed frequency solutions and

enables use of easily available high frequency diodes such as

the Turbo-2 series from STMicroelectronics. Diodes with soft

recovery characteristics that result in a reduced EMI are available

from a number of manufacturers. For highly demanding

applications such as 80 PLUS Gold power supplies, use of

Silicon Carbide diodes may be considered. These uses will

typically provide further full load improvement in efﬁciency.

The diodes will be required to have a forward continuous current

rating of at least 1.2 A to 1.5 A for every 100 W of output power.

Output Capacitor

For a 385 V nominal PFC, use of a electrolytic capacitor with

450 V or higher continuous rating is recommended. The

capacitance required is dependent on the acceptable level of

output ripple and any hold up time requirements. The equations

below provide an easy way to determine the required capacitance

in order to meet the hold up time requirement and also to meet

the output ripple requirements. The higher of the two values

would be required to be used:

calculated using the equation:

fL Input frequency in Hz

ΔVO Peak-peak output voltage ripple in volts

ηPFC PFC operating efﬁciency

IO(MAX) Maximum output current in amps

Capacitance calculated using the above method should be

appropriately increased to account for ageing and tolerances.

Power Supply for the IC

A 12 V regulated supply should be used for the HiperPFS. If the

VCC exceeds 13.4 V, the HiperPFS may be damaged. In most

applications a simple series pass linear regulator made using an

NPN transistor and Zener diode is adequate since the HiperPFS

only requires approximately 3.4 mA maximum for its operation.

It is recommended that a 1 mF or higher, low ESR ceramic

capacitor be used to decouple the VCC supply. This capacitor

should be placed directly at the IC on the circuit board.

Line-Sense Network

The line-sense network connected to the V pin provides input

voltage information to the HiperPFS. The value of this resistance

sets the brown-in and brown-out threshold for the part. A value

of 4 MW is recommended for use with the universal input parts

and a value of 9 MW is recommended for the 230 VAC only

parts. Only 1% tolerance resistors are recommended. This

resistance value may be modiﬁed to adjust the brown-in

threshold if required however change of this value will affect the

maximum power delivered by the part.

A decoupling capacitor of 0.1 mF is required to be connected

from the VOLTAGE MONITOR pin to the GROUND pin of the

HiperPFS for the universal input parts and a decoupling

capacitor of 0.047 mF is required for the 230 VAC only parts.

This capacitor should be placed directly at the part on the

circuit board.

Feedback Network

A resistor divider network that provides 6 V at the feedback pin

at the rated output voltage should be used. The compensation

elements are included with the feedback divider network since

the HiperPFS does not have a separate pin for compensation.

The HiperPFS based PFC has two loops in its feedback. It has

an inner current loop and a low bandwidth outer voltage loop

which ensures high input power factor. The compensation RC

circuit included with the feedback network reduces the response

time of the HiperPFS to fast changes in output voltage resulting

from transient loads. The feedback circuit recommended for

use with the HiperPFS includes a pair of transistors that are

biased in a way that the transistors are in cutoff during normal

operation. When a rapid change occurs in the output voltage,

these transistors conduct momentarily to correct the feedback

pin voltage rapidly thereby helping the HiperPFS to respond to

the changes in output voltage without the delay associated with

a low bandwidth feedback loop.

The recommended circuit and the associated component

values are shown in Figure 14.

Resistors, R1 to R5 comprise of the main output voltage divider

network. The sum of resistors R1, R2 and R3 is the upper

divider resistor and the lower feedback resistor is comprised of

the sum of resistors R4 and R5. Capacitor C1 is a soft-ﬁnish

capacitor that reduces output voltage overshoot at start-up.

Resistor R8 and capacitor C3 form a low pass ﬁlter to ﬁlter any

switching noise from coupling into the FEEDBACK pin. Resistor

R7 and capacitor C2 is the loop compensation network which

introduces a low frequency zero required to tailor the loop

response to ensure low cross-over frequency and sufﬁcient

phase margin. Resistor R6 isolates the fast portion (resistor

voltage divider network comprising of resistors R1 to R5) and

the slow feedback loop compensator circuit (resistor R7 and

capacitor C2). Transistors Q1 and Q2, biased with resistors R3

and R4 respectively, detect output voltage transient conditions

and provide the FEEDBACK pin with “fast” information to

increase the loop response of the system. Diode D1 is included

to cover a single point fault condition wherein capacitor C2 is

shorted. In the event C2 is short-circuited, the FEEDBACK pin

is forced below the FBOFF threshold through diode D1 and

subsequently turns the HiperPFS off. Only a standard recovery

diode should be used for D1. Use of ultrafast or fast recovery

diode is not recommended including small signal diodes (e.g.

1N4148) which are typically also fast recovery.

The recommended values for the components used are as

follows:

R5 = 57.6 kW

R3, R4 = 2.2 kW

R2 = 732 kW

C1 = 0.1 mF, 100 V X7R/NPO

R6 = 160 kW

R7 = 3 kW

R8 = 2 kW

C2 = 4.7 mF

C3 = 10 nF (For layouts that result in excessive noise on the

feedback signal, a 20 nF capacitor may be used).

D1 = BAV116 W or 1N4007 (A general purpose standard

recovery diode should only be used).

Q1, Q2 = Small signal transistors equivalent to 2N4401 and

2N4403.

Figure 14. Recommended Feedback Circuit.

When the above component values are used, the value of

resistor R1 can be calculated using the equation below:

10010

Since the total voltage across resistor R1 is approximately

301 V, resistor R1 may have to be divided into two or more

resistors to distribute the voltage stress below the voltage

ratings of the resistor used.

The value of resistor R7 will have to be adjusted in some

designs and as a guideline the value from the following

calculation can be used:

RR VC

X==

PO Maximum continuous output power in watts

VO Nominal PFC output voltage in volts

CO PFC output capacitance in farads

Improvement in low frequency phase margin can be achieved by

increasing the value of the capacitor C2 however increase in value

of capacitor C2 will result in some increase in overshoot at the

output of the PFC during transient loading and should be veriﬁed.

Diode D2 connected in series with the collector of the NPN

transistor Q1 is to prevent loading of the feedback circuit when

the VCC is absent. Presence of this diode ensures that there is

no start-up delay when the VCC is applied to the HiperPFS, the

feedback circuit, and transistor.

Heat Sinking and Thermal Design

The exposed pad on the HiperPFS eSIP package is internally

connected to the drain of the MOSFET. Due to the signiﬁcant

amount of power dissipated in the part, the HiperPFS should be

mounted on a rectangular heat spreader made of thermally

conductive material such as Aluminum or Copper. Figure 15

shows an example of the recommended assembly for the

HiperPFS. In this assembly shown, a 0.76 mm thick aluminum

heat spreader is used. A thermally conductive sil pad should be

used to separate the heat spreader from the heat sink. A thin

ﬁlm of thermally conductive silicone grease should be applied to

the rear surface of the HiperPFS to ensure low thermal

resistance contact between the package of the HiperPFS and

the heat spreader.

For universal input applications up to 150 W and 230 VAC only

applications up to 300 W, the heat spreader is not essential.

Use of heat spreader in these applications will help reduce

temperature of the part and heat spreaders can be used if

necessary. Figure 17 shows an example of the recommended

assembly for lower power designs that do not need a heat

spreader.

The HiperPFS is electrically connected to the heat spreader and

the heat sink is required to be connected to the source in order

to reduce EMI. The voltage between the heat spreader and

heat sink can easily exceed 400 V during transient conditions.

Attention should be placed on creepage and clearance based

on applicable safety speciﬁcation.

PCB Design Guidelines and Design Example

The line-sense network and the feedback circuit use large

resistance values in order to minimize power dissipation in the

feedback network and the line-sense network. Care should be

taken to place the feedback circuit and the line-sense network

components away from the high voltage and high current nodes

to minimize any interference. Any noise injected in the feedback

network or the line-sense network will typically manifest as

degradation of power factor. Excessive noise injection can lead

to waveform instability or dissymmetry.

The EMI ﬁlter components should be clustered together to

improve ﬁlter effectiveness. The placement of the EMI ﬁlter

components on the circuit board should be such that the input

circuit is located away from the drain node of the HiperPFS, the

output diode of the PFC or the PFC inductor.

A ﬁlter or decoupling capacitor should be placed at the output

of the bridge rectiﬁer. This capacitor together with the

X capacitance in the EMI ﬁlter and the differential inductance of

the EMI ﬁlter section and the source impedance, works as a

ﬁlter to reduce the switching frequency current ripple in the

input current. This capacitor also helps to minimize the loop

area of the switching frequency current loop thereby reducing

EMI.

The connection between the HiperPFS drain node, output

diode drain terminal and the PFC inductor should be kept as

small as possible.

A low loss ceramic dielectric capacitor should be connected

between the cathode of the PFC output diode and the source

terminal of the HiperPFS. This ensures that the loop area of the

loop carrying high frequency currents at the transition of

switch-off of the MOSFET small and helps to reduce radiated

EMI due to high frequency pulsating nature of the diode current

traversing through the loop.

During placement of components on the board, it is best to

place the VOLTAGE MONITOR pin, FEEDBACK pin and VCC

pin decoupling capacitors close to the HiperPFS before the

other components are placed and routed. Power supply return

trace from the GROUND pin should be separate from the trace

connecting the feedback circuit components to the GROUND pin.

To minimize effect of trace impedance affecting regulation,

output feedback should be taken directly from the output

capacitor positive terminal. The upper end of the line-sense

resistors should be connected to the high frequency ﬁlter

capacitor connected at the output of the bridge rectiﬁer.

Quick Design Checklist

As with any power supply design, all HiperPFS designs should

be veriﬁed on the bench to make sure that component

speciﬁcations are not exceeded under worst-case conditions.

The following minimum set of tests is strongly recommended:

1. Maximum drain voltage – verify that peak VDS does not

exceed 530 V at lowest input voltage and maximum overload

output power. Maximum overload output power occurs

when the output is overloaded to a level just above the

highest rated load or before the power supply output voltage

starts falling out of regulation. Additional external snubbers

should be used if this voltage is exceeded. In most designs,

addition of a ceramic capacitor in the range of 33 pF and

100 pF connected across the PFC output diode will reduce

the maximum drain-source voltage to a level below the BVDSS

rating. When measuring drain-source voltage of the MOSFET,

a high voltage probe should be used. When the probe tip is

removed, a silver ring in the vicinity of the probe tip can be

seen. This ring is at ground potential and the best ground

connection point for making noise free measurements.

Wrapping stiff wire around the ground ring and then

connecting that ground wire into the circuit with the shortest

possible wire length, and connecting the probe tip to the

point being measured, ensures error free measurement.

2. Maximum drain current – at maximum ambient temperature,

minimum input voltage and maximum output load, verify

drain current waveforms at start-up for any signs of inductor

saturation and excessive leading edge current spikes.

HiperPFS has a leading edge blanking time of 220 ns to

prevent premature termination of the ON-cycle. Verify that

the leading edge current spike is below the allowed current

limit for the drain current waveform at the end of the 220 ns

blanking period. If a wire loop is inserted in series with the

drain, it forms a small stray inductance in series with the

drain. This stray inductance will add to the leading edge

voltage spike on the drain source waveform. The drain-

source voltage waveform should therefore never be measured

with this loop. An alternate measurement that can provide

drain current level and information regarding slope of the

inductor current can be obtained by monitoring the inductor

current instead. A wire loop can be added in series with the

PFC inductor connection that connects the inductor to the

input rectiﬁer for the purpose of measurement.

3. Thermal check – at maximum output power, minimum input

voltage and maximum ambient temperature; verify that

temperature speciﬁcations are not exceeded for the HiperPFS,

PFC inductor, output diodes and output capacitors. Enough

thermal margin should be allowed for the part-to-part

variation of the RDS(ON) of HiperPFS, as speciﬁed in the data

sheet. A maximum package temperature of 100 °C is

recommended to allow for these variations.

4. Input PF should improve with load, if performance is found to

progressively deteriorate with loading then that is a sign of

possible noise pickup by the VOLTAGE MONITOR pin circuit

or the feedback divider network and the compensation

circuit.
