STMicroelectronics L6560/L6560A Power Factor Corrector Datasheet

The L6560/A is a monolithic integrated circuit designed as a controller and driver of a discrete power MOS transistor for the implementation of active power factor correction, for sinusoidal line current consumption. The chip is realized in mixed BCD technology, and integrates: an undervoltage lockout with micropower start-up and hysteresis, an internal temperature compensated precise band gap reference, a stable error amplifier, one quadrant multiplier, current sense comparator, an output overvoltage protection circuit, and a totem-pole output stage able to drive a POWER MOS or IGBT devices with source and sink current of 400mA. The chip works in transition mode and is particularly intended for lamp ballast applications and for low power SMPS.
