P e t e l o s b O The main feature of this converter is that the input current is almost in phase with the mains voltage; therefore the power factor is close to unity. This is achieved by the controller, the L6564, shaping the input current as a sinewave in phase with the mains voltage.

The converter is connected after the mains rectifier and the capacitor filter that, in this case, is very small so as not to damage the shape of the input current. The flyback switch is represented by the Power MOSFET Q1, driven by the L6564. The board is equipped with an input EMI filter designed for a 2-wire input mains plug. It is composed of one common mode line-filter stage connected after the input connector. A varistor is also connected at the input of the board, improving the immunity against input voltage fast transients. At startup the L6564 is powered by the VCC capacitor (C8) that is charged via the startup network composed of R3, R4, R7, D2, DZ2, Q2 and PTC1. When the device begins to switch, this network is opened by the diodes DZ6, R2, R43 and Q3, decreasing the power dissipation during normal operation. After startup operation, the L6564 is supplied by the T1 auxiliary winding (pins 5-6) generating the VCC voltage rectified by D5 and R17. ) s ( ct u d o R33 is also connected to the auxiliary winding, providing to the L6564 ZCD pin the transformer demagnetization signal, turning on the MOSFET at any switching cycle. r P e The voltage on the auxiliary is even used to detect an abrupt rise in the output voltage or a feedback disconnection via the diodes D5 and D6 and the divider composed of R32 and R12. When the voltage on the INV pin (#1) is lower than 1.66 V and the PFC_OK pin (#5) is greater than 2.5 V, the OVP is active and the L6564 is latched. t e l o s b O The MOSFET is the STF11NM80, a standard and inexpensive 800 V device housed in a TO-220FP package. The rectifier D3, the TransilTM DZ1 and capacitor C12 clamp the peak voltage spike at MOSFET turn-off. ) (s The R10 resistors sense the current flowing into the transformer primary side. Once the signal at the current sense pin via resistor R11 has reached the level programmed by the internal multiplier of the L6564, the MOSFET is turned off. t c u d o r The dividers R1, R5, R8 and R13 provide, to the L6564 multiplier pin (#3), the information of the instantaneous voltage used to modulate the current flowing into the transformer primary side. P e t e l o s b O The capacitor C16 and the parallel resistor R14 complete an internal peak-holding circuit that derives the information on the RMS mains voltage. The voltage signal at this pin, a DC level equal to the peak voltage on pin #3 (MULT), is provided to a second input to the multiplier for the 1/V2 function necessary to compensate the control loop gain dependence on the mains voltage. Additionally, the pin VFF (#5) is internally connected to a comparator providing the brownout (AC mains undervoltage) protection. A voltage below 0.8 V shuts down (not latched) the IC and brings its consumption to a considerably lower level. The L6564 restarts as the voltage at the pin rises above 0.88 V. The transformer is layer type, using a standard ferrite size EER-28L, manufactured by Magnetica. The flyback reflected voltage is ~140 V, providing enough room for the leakage inductance voltage spike with still enough margin for reliability of the MOSFET. Employing the L6564 ensures a cleaner current sinewave than the old PFC devices (with L6562D/L6562A the startup resistance was necessary on pin INV)) and it implements the VFF function, especially useful in wide-range input voltage, to have a more constant overload protection 2/6 Doc ID 023237 Rev 1 EVL6564-50WFLB General information and electrical schematic regardless of mains voltage. Moreover, the L6564, offers a better immunity against external noise thanks to the characteristics of its OVP function (without current OVP) and a dedicated function to manage the burst mode condition is even available. On the secondary stage, the dividers R26, R28 and R42, are dedicated to sensing the output voltage. Capacitor C17 and diodes D7 and D8 provide a soft-start at turn-on. The output regulation is done by means of an isolated voltage loop by the opto-coupler U1 and using an inexpensive TS2431A (U4) to drive it. The opto-transistor modulates the input voltage of the L6564 internal amplifier via R31 and R35. R21, R25 and C21 close the voltage loop. The output rectifier is a fast recovery type, selected according to the maximum reverse voltage, forward voltage drop and power dissipation. A small LC filter has been added on the output, filtering the high frequency ripple. ) s ( ct u d o r P e t e l o ) (s s b O t c u d o r P e t e l o s b O Doc ID 023237 Rev 1 3/6 General information and electrical schematic Figure 1.
