Nearly a constant on-

time as the line varies

The PWM reference increases

as the line voltage increases.

As line voltage increases, the voltage across the

inductor increases, and the peak current increases.

For this evaluation board, the following resistor values are used:

R3 = R8 = 309 kΩ

R20 = 1.91 kΩ

Therefore the voltages observed on the FILTER pin will be as follows for listed input voltages:

For VIN = 180V

RMS

, V

FILTER, Pk

= 0.78V

For VIN = 230V

RMS

, V

FILTER, Pk

= 1.00V

For VIN = 265V

RMS

, V

FILTER, Pk

= 1.15V

Using this technique, a power factor greater than 0.98 can be achieved without additional passive active

power factor control (PFC) circuitry.
