Notes:
7. The ceramic capacitor placed between VCC-COM (C24, 105) needs to be over 100 nF and mounted as close to the pins
as possible.
8. Over-current level is 50 A because the value of shunt resistor used is 10 mΩ.
9. If OCP of SPM is not used, R28 and C23 should not be used and R41 should be zero Ω.
10. Two-level OVP can be also implemented. The DC-link voltage changes slowly because of its large capacitance and,
therefore, OVP does not need a fast response. It is optional to activate the OVP of the PFC controller.
The over-voltage level can be adjusted by the value of VREF and resistance.
Notes:
11. The PFC evaluation board can protect the power module from over-voltage situations. When over-voltage event occurs,
the PFC stops operating and generates fault-out signal during fault-out duration time(set by CFOD). A comparator solution
is recommended.
12. Power input AC voltage sensing circuit. Normally, the PFC IC needs to have the magnitude and phase of the input AC
voltage.
13. If FAN6982 (PFC IC) is not used, R40 must be zero Ω.
14. An external anti-parallel diode must be used to prevent negative VCE voltage at light load and zero switching conditions.
Otherwise, the IGBT in boost PFC SPM® 3 Package can be damaged due to repetitive reverse avalanches.
