EVL6564H-100W 100 W transition-mode PFC pre-regulator demonstration board based on the L6564H

This demonstration board is based on the new transition-mode PFC controller L6564H and implements a 100 W, wide-range mains input, PFC pre-conditioner suitable for ballast, adapters, flat screen displays, and all SMPS having to meet IEC61000-3-2 or JEITA-MITI regulations.

The L6564H is a current-mode PFC controller operating in transition mode (TM) which embeds the same features existing in the L6564 with the addition of a high voltage startup source. These functions make the IC especially suitable for applications that must be compliant with energy saving regulations and where the PFC pre-regulator works as the master stage.

The EVAL6564H-100W implements a power factor correction (PFC) pre-regulator 100 W, continuous power, on a regulated 400 V rail from a wide-range mains voltage and providing for the reduction of the mains harmonics, allowing the European EN61000-3-2 or the Japanese JEITA-MITI standard to be met. The regulated output voltage is typically the input for the cascaded isolated DC-DC converter that provides the output rails required by the load.
