DESCRIPTION
The UCC3817A and the UCC3818A family
provides all the functions necessary for active
power factor corrected preregulators. The
controller achieves near unity power factor by
shaping the ac input line current waveform to
correspond to that of the ac input line voltage.
Average current mode control maintains stable,
low distortion sinusoidal line current.
Designed in Texas Instrument’s BiCMOS process,
the UCC3817A/UCC3818A offers new features
such as lower start-up current, lower power
dissipation, overvoltage protection, a shunt UVLO
detect circuitry, a leading-edge modulation
technique to reduce ripple current in the bulk
capacitor and an improved, low-offset (±2 mV)
current amplifier to reduce distortion at light load
conditions.
