PFC Controller Integrates Numerous Protection Features


From MagnaChip Semiconductor , a Korea-based designer and manufacturer of analog and mixed-signal
semiconductor products, the MAP8800 is a power factor correction (PFC) controller that has been optimized for
use in LCD TVs, but is also well suited for general power supply and lighting applications. Operating in voltage-
mode critical conduction mode (CRM), this PFC controller does not require the input-voltage sense line (see Figs
1 and 2.) Housed in an 8-pin SOP, the MAP8800 integrates numerous protection features.

The controller provides features such as a maximum-frequency limiting function to prevent damage to the TV
power supply and diode short protection, which protects the TV when a boost diode is shorted. Additionally, the
MAP8800 provides overvoltage and overcurrent protection as well as feedback protection when the feedback
loop is shorted.

The MAP8800 is an optimum product designed to improve the energy efficiency and power supply stability of
LCD TVs, said H.K. Kim, EVP and general manager of MagnaChips Display and Power Solutions Division. By
consolidating multiple protection circuits within one device, the MAP8800 enables LCD TV manufacturers to
design products capable of using fewer parts that can withstand a higher power factor resulting in lower product
costs and improved stability performance.

controller optimized for LCD TVs. This chip protects against numerous fault conditions including
boost-diode shorting, bypass-diode shorting, ZCD-winding shorting, as well as overvoltage,
overcurrent, and undervoltage conditions, and open/floating feedback.
