Applying SG6902 to Control a CCM PFC and Flyback/PWM Power Supply

SG6902 is a controller designed for power supplies that consist of boost PFC and flyback PWM. It requires few external components to achieve green-mode operation and versatile protections and compensations. The proprietary interleave switching synchronizes the PFC and PWM stages and reduces switching noise. At light loads, PFC stage is turned off to save power and the PWM switching frequency increases.

About this manual

The document details the use of the SG6902 integrated circuit to control a CCM PFC and Flyback/PWM power supply. It highlights features such as interleaved switching, green-mode operation at light loads, multi-vector control for improved transient response, and various protection mechanisms including over-temperature and cycle-by-cycle current limiting.

The guide includes specific design equations and component selection procedures for the PFC inductor, boost capacitor, and resistors required to set switching frequency and brownout thresholds. It also explains the power-on sequence between the PWM and PFC stages.

Frequently asked questions

What is the recommended switching frequency range for SG6902?

The recommended range for the switching frequency is 33kHz to 100kHz.

At what feedback voltage does the SG6902 disable the PFC stage?

The PFC stage is disabled when the feedback voltage of the FBPWM pin falls below a threshold between 1.95V and 2.45V.

How does SG6902 handle light-load conditions?

At light loads, the PFC stage is turned off to save power and the PWM switching frequency is decreased.
