Application information L6564

However, in some applications such as ac-dc adapters, where the PFC preregulator is
turned off at light load for energy saving reasons, even a well-designed boost inductor may
occasionally slightly saturate when the PFC stage is restarted because of a larger load
demand. This happens when the restart occurs at an unfavorable line voltage phase, i.e.
when the output voltage is significantly below the rectified peak voltage. As a result, in the
boost inductor the inrush current coming from the bridge rectifier adds up to the switched
current and, furthermore, there is little or no voltage available for demagnetization.
To cope with a saturated inductor, the L6564 device is provided with a second comparator
on the current sense pin (CS, pin 4) that stops the IC if the voltage, normally limited within
1.1 V, exceeds 1.7 V. After that, the IC will be attempted to restart by the internal starter
circuitry; the starter repetition time is twice the nominal value to guarantee lower stress for
the inductor and boost diode. Hence, the system safety will be considerably increased.
