About this manual

This document describes the EVL6699-150W-SR demonstration board, a 12 V - 150 W resonant converter designed for all-in-one computer power supplies or high power adapters. The architecture utilizes a two-stage approach featuring a front-end PFC pre-regulator based on the L6563H and a downstream LLC resonant half-bridge converter using the L6699 controller.

Frequently asked questions

What is the main application for this converter?

It is tailored to a typical specification of an all-in-one (AIO) computer power supply or a high power adapter.

Which chips are used in the demonstration board?

The board uses the L6563H PFC controller, the L6699 resonant controller, and the SRK2000 SR driver.

What is the turn-off threshold for the resonant startup?

The turn-off threshold has been set to 300 V to let the resonant stage operate in the case of mains sag.
