All electronic devices require power supplies which converts the alternating current into direct current. Almost all the power supplies have a low power factor and introduce harmonic current, even the liner supplies have this issue. Effect of the single power supply may not be significant but in a system where multiple power supplies are used this effect can be considerable. Power factor of the system/ supply can be improved by introducing power factor correction circuits this will also reduce harmonic currents.

SPC7110F is a power factor correction converter IC. It consumes very little power due to the fact that a high voltage CMOS process is utilized in the manufacturing of IC. Many fault protection techniques are also incorporated in the IC.

Working Principle

SPC7011F consists of an error amplifier, comparator, chopper circuit, delay circuit and oscillator circuits. This IC performs the power factor correction converter operation by utilizing a boost chopper in critical mode. The switching operation in critical mode is implemented with self-oscillation without any external oscillator. With power factor correction circuits in the critical mod, the switching frequency is always changing due to instantaneous values of the AC input voltage. This switching frequency also changes when the input voltage or load changes. Due to the switching current flowing form built in the inductor, since an inclination of inductor current depends on input voltage and on time is constant, the outline linking peak of the inductor current which becomes the same AC waveform as the input voltage, which enables power factor correction operation.
