Active Bridge Rectifier Controller

The TEA2206T is an active bridge rectifier controller for replacing the two low-side diodes in the traditional diode bridge with MOSFETs. Using the TEA2206T with low-ohmic high-voltage external MOSFETs significantly improves the efficiency of the power converter as the typical rectifier-diode forward-conduction losses are reduced by 50 %. Efficiency can improve up to about 0.7 % at 90 V (AC) mains voltage. The TEA2206T is fabricated in a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) process.
