NCP1606BOOSTGEVB

The NCP1606BOOSTGEVB is an evaluation board featuring NCP1606 active power factor controller. The NCP1606 is specifically designed for use as a pre converter in electronic ballasts, AC to DC adapters and other medium power off line converters. This IC embeds a critical conduction mode (CRM) scheme that substantially exhibits unity power factor across a wide range of input voltages and power levels. Its integration of comprehensive safety protection features makes the NCP1606 an excellent driver for rugged PFC stages. This evaluation board is a PFC pre converter and It is designed to operate over universal lines (88BVac to 264Vac, 47Hz to 63Hz) and produce a 400V output at up to 100W. This output is suitable for driving typical SMPS stages or resistive loads.

• Unity power factor
• No need for input voltage sensing
• Latching PWM for cycle by cycle on time control
• Very low start up current consumption of 50A
• Low typical operating current of 3mA
• Undervoltage lockout with hysteresis
• Programmable overvoltage protection
• The NCP1606BOOSTGEVB provides protection against open loop (Undervoltage protection)
• Accurate and programmable on time limitation
• Overcurrent limitation
