LT1249 Active Power Factor Correction for 90VAC to 270VAC Universal Offline Power Systems
The LT1249 uses a multiplier containing a square gain function from the voltage amplifier to reduce the AC gain at light output load and thus maintains low line current distortion and high system stability. The LT1249 also provides filtering capability to reject line switching noise which can cause instability when fed into the multiplier. Line current dead zone is minimized with low bias voltage at the current input to the multiplier.
The LT1249 provides many protection features including peak current limiting and overvoltage protection. The switching frequency is internally set at 100kHz.
While the LT1249 simplifies PFC design with minimal parts count, the LT1248 provides flexibilities in switching frequency, overvoltage and current limit.
