To hold the input current draw of a device drawing power
Functional Description
from the AC line in phase with and proportional to the input
voltage, a way must be found to prevent that device from
loading the line except in proportion to the instantaneous line
voltage. The PFC section of the ML4827 uses a boost-mode
DC-DC converter to accomplish this. The input to the con-
verter is the full wave rectified AC line voltage. No bulk fil-
tering is applied following the bridge rectifier, so the input
voltage to the boost converter ranges (at twice line fre-
quency) from zero volts to the peak value of the AC input
and back to zero. By forcing the boost converter to meet two
simultaneous conditions, it is possible to ensure that the cur-
rent which the converter draws from the power line agrees
with the instantaneous line voltage. One of these conditions
is that the output voltage of the boost converter must be set
higher than the peak value of the line voltage. A commonly
used value is 385VDC, to allow for a high line of
The ML4827 consists of an average current controlled, con-
tinuous boost Power Factor Corrector (PFC) front end and a
synchronized Pulse Width Modulator (PWM) back end. The
PWM can be used in either current or voltage mode. In volt-
age mode, feedforward from the PFC output buss can be
used to improve the PWM’s line regulation. In either mode,
the PWM stage uses conventional trailing-edge duty cycle
modulation, while the PFC uses leading-edge modulation.
This patented leading/trailing edge modulation technique
results in a higher useable PFC error amplifier bandwidth,
and can significantly reduce the size of the PFC DC buss
capacitor.
The synchronization of the PWM with the PFC simplifies the
PWM compensation due to the controlled ripple on the PFC
output capacitor (the PWM input capacitor). The PWM sec-
tion of both the ML4827-1 and the ML4827-2 run at the
same frequency as the PFC.
270VACrms. The other condition is that the current which the
converter is allowed to draw from the line at any given
instant must be proportional to the line voltage. The first of
these requirements is satisfied by establishing a suitable volt-
age control loop for the converter, which in turn drives a cur-
rent error amplifier and switching output driver. The second
requirement is met by using the rectified AC line voltage to
modulate the output of the voltage control loop. Such modu-
lation causes the current error amplifier to command a power
stage current which varies directly with the input voltage. In
order to prevent ripple which will necessarily appear at the
output of the boost circuit (typically about 10VAC on a 385V
DC level) from introducing distortion back through the volt-
age error amplifier, the bandwidth of the voltage loop is
deliberately kept low. A final refinement is to adjust the over-
A number of protection features have been built into the
ML4827 to insure the final power supply will be as reliable
as possible. These include TriFault Detect, soft-start, PFC
over-voltage protection, peak current limiting, brown-out
protection, duty cycle limit, and under-voltage lockout.
Tri-Fault Detect protection
Many power supplies manufactured for sale in the US must
meet Underwriter’s Laboratories (UL) standards. UL’s speci-
fication UL1950 requires that no unsafe condition may result
from the failure of any single circuit component. Typical sys-
tem designs include external active and passive circuitry to
meet this requirement. TriFault Detect is an on-chip feature
of the ML4827 that monitors the VFB pin for overvoltage,
undervoltage, or floating conditions which indicate that a
component of the feedback path may have failed. In such an
event, the PFC supply output will be disabled. These inte-
grated redundant protections assure system compliance with
UL1950 requirements.

all gain of the PFC such to be proportional to 1/VIN , which
linearizes the transfer function of the system as the AC input
voltage varies.
Since the boost converter topology in the ML4827 PFC is of
the current-averaging type, no slope compensation is
required.
PFC Section
Power Factor Correction
Power factor correction makes a nonlinear load look like a
resistive load to the AC line. For a resistor, the current drawn
from the line is in phase with and proportional to the line
voltage, so the power factor is unity (one). A common class
of nonlinear load is the input of most power supplies, which
use a bridge rectifier and capacitive input filter fed from the
line. The peak-charging effect which occurs on the input fil-
ter capacitor in these supplies causes brief high-amplitude
pulses of current to flow from the power line, rather than a
sinusoidal current in phase with the line voltage. Such sup-
plies present a power factor to the line of less than one (i.e.
they cause significant current harmonics of the power line
frequency to appear at their input). If the input current drawn
by such a supply (or any other nonlinear load) can be made
to follow the input voltage in instantaneous amplitude, it will
appear resistive to the AC line and a unity power factor will
be achieved.
Gain Modulator
Figure 1 shows a block diagram of the PFC section of the
ML4827. The gain modulator is the heart of the PFC, as it is
this circuit block which controls the response of the current
loop to line voltage waveform and frequency, RMS line volt-
age, and PFC output voltage. There are three inputs to the
gain modulator. These are:
1. A current representing the instantaneous input voltage
(amplitude and waveshape) to the PFC. The rectified AC
input sine wave is converted to a proportional current
via a resistor and is then fed into the gain modulator at
IAC. Sampling current in this way minimizes ground
noise, as is required in high power switching power con-
version environments. The gain modulator responds lin-
early to this current.

2. A voltage proportional to the long-term RMS AC line
voltage, derived from the rectified line voltage after
scaling and filtering. This signal is presented to the gain
modulator at VRMS. The gain modulator’s output is
inversely proportional to VRMS2 (except at unusually
low values of VRMS where special gain contouring takes
over, to limit power dissipation of the circuit compo-
nents under heavy brownout conditions). The relation-
ship between VRMS and gain is termed K, and is
FET(s) and one to monitor the IF of the boost diode. As
stated above, the inverting input of the current error amplifier
is a virtual ground. Given this fact, and the arrangement of
the duty cycle modulator polarities internal to the PFC, an
increase in positive current from the gain modulator will
cause the output stage to increase its duty cycle until the
voltage on ISENSE is adequately negative to cancel this
increased current. Similarly, if the gain modulator’s output
decreases, the output duty cycle will decrease, to achieve a
less negative voltage on the ISENSE pin.

gain modulator responds linearly to variations in this

REF
The output of the gain modulator is a current signal, in the
form of a full wave rectified sinusoid at twice the line fre-
quency. This current is applied to the virtual-ground (nega-
tive) input of the current error amplifier. In this way the gain
modulator forms the reference for the current error loop, and
ultimately controls the instantaneous current draw of the
PFC from the power line. The general form for the output of
the gain modulator is:

Cycle-By-Cycle Current Limiter
The ISENSE pin, as well as being a part of the current feed-
back loop, is a direct input to the cycle-by-cycle current lim-
iter for the PFC section. Should the input voltage at this pin
ever be more negative than -1V, the output of the PFC will be
disabled until the protection flip-flop is reset by the clock
pulse at the start of the next PFC power cycle.

Note that the output current of the gain modulator is limited
to ≅ 200µA.
Current Error Amplifier
Overvoltage Protection
The current error amplifier’s output controls the PFC duty
cycle to keep the average current through the boost inductor
a linear function of the line voltage. At the inverting input to
the current error amplifier, the output current of the gain
modulator is summed with a current which results from a
negative voltage being impressed upon the ISENSE pin (cur-
rent into ISENSE ≅ VSENSE/3.5kΩ). The negative voltage on
ISENSE represents the sum of all currents flowing in the PFC
circuit, and is typically derived from a current sense resistor
in series with the negative terminal of the input bridge recti-
fier. In higher power applications, two current transformers
are sometimes used, one to monitor the ID of the boost MOS-
The OVP comparator serves to protect the power circuit
from being subjected to excessive voltages if the load should
suddenly change. A resistor divider from the high voltage
DC output of the PFC is fed to VFB. When the voltage on VFB
exceeds 2.7V, the PFC output driver is shut down. The PWM
section will continue to operate. The OVP comparator has
125mV of hysteresis, and the PFC will not restart until the
voltage at VFB drops below 2.58V. The VFB should be set at a
level where the active and passive external power compo-
nents and the ML4827 are within their safe operating volt-
ages, but not so low as to interfere with the boost voltage

Error Amplifier Compensation
Oscillator (RAMP 1)
The PWM loading of the PFC can be modeled as a negative
resistor; an increase in input voltage to the PWM causes a
decrease in the input current. This response dictates the
proper compensation of the two transconductance error
amplifiers. Figure 2 shows the types of compensation net-
works most commonly used for the voltage and current error
amplifiers, along with their respective return points. The cur-
rent loop compensation is returned to VREF to produce a soft-
start characteristic on the PFC: as the reference voltage
comes up from zero volts, it creates a differentiated voltage
on IEAO which prevents the PFC from immediately
demanding a full duty cycle on its boost converter.
The oscillator frequency is determined by the values of RT
and CT, which determine the ramp and off-time of the oscil-
lator output clock:

fOSC = --------------------------------------------------
(2)

RAMP + tDEADTIME
The deadtime of the oscillator is derived from the following
equation:
V

-------------------------------
tRAMP = CT × RT × In
(3)
V
REF – 3.75
There are two major concerns when compensating the volt-
age loop error amplifier; stability and transient response.
Optimizing interaction between transient response and sta-
bility requires that the error amplifier’s open-loop crossover
frequency should be 1/2 that of the line frequency, or 23Hz
for a 47Hz line (lowest anticipated international power fre-
quency). The gain vs. input voltage of the ML4827’s voltage
error amplifier has a specially shaped nonlinearity such that
under steady-state operating conditions the transconductance
of the error amplifier is at a local minimum. Rapid perturba-
tions in line or load conditions will cause the input to the
voltage error amplifier (VFB) to deviate from its 2.5V (nomi-
nal) value. If this happens, the transconductance of the volt-
age error amplifier will increase significantly, as shown in the
Typical Performance Characteristics. This raises the gain-
bandwidth product of the voltage loop, resulting in a much
more rapid voltage loop response to such perturbations than
would occur with a conventional linear gain characteristic.
at VREF = 7.5V:
tRAMP = CT × RT × 0.51
The deadtime of the oscillator may be determined using:
2.5V
tDEADTIME = ----------------- × CT = 490 × CT
5.1mA
(4)
The deadtime is so small (tRAMP >> tDEADTIME) that the oper-
ating frequency can typically be approximated by:
1
fOSC = ---------------
(5)
tRAMP
The current amplifier compensation is similar to that of the
voltage error amplifier with the exception of the choice of
crossover frequency. The crossover frequency of the current
amplifier should be at least 10 times that of the voltage
amplifier, to prevent interaction with the voltage loop. It
should also be limited to less than 1/6th that of the switching
frequency, e.g. 16.7kHz for a 100kHz switching frequency.
EXAMPLE:
For the application circuit shown in the data sheet, with the
oscillator running at:
1
fOSC = 100kHz = ---------------
tRAMP
tRAMP = CT × RT × 0.51 = 1 × 10–5
There is a modest degree of gain contouring applied to the
transfer characteristic of the current error amplifier, to
increase its speed of response to current-loop perturbations.
However, the boost inductor will usually be the dominant
factor in overall current loop response. Therefore, this con-
touring is significantly less marked than that of the voltage
error amplifier.
Solving for RT x CT yields 2 x 10-4. Selecting standard com-
ponents values, CT = 470pF, and RT = 41.2kΩ.
The deadtime of the oscillator adds to the Maximum PWM
Duty Cycle (it is an input to the Duty Cycle Limiter). With
zero oscillator deadtime, the Maximum PWM Duty Cycle is
typically 45% for the ML4827-1. In many applications of the
ML4827-1, care should be taken that CT not be made so
large as to extend the Maximum Duty Cycle beyond 50%.
This can be accomplished by using a stable 470pF capacitor
for CT.
For more information on compensating the current and volt-
age control loops, see Application Notes 33 and 34. Applica-
tion Note 16 also contains valuable information for the
design of this class of PFC.

NOTE: during the time when the PWM switch is off (the
reset or flyback periods), increasing duty cycles will result in
rapidly increasing peak voltages across the switch. This
result of high PWM duty cycles requires greater care be used
in circuit design. Relevant design issues include:
PWM SECTION
Pulse Width Modulator
The PWM section of the ML4827 is straightforward, but
there are several points which should be noted. Foremost
among these is its inherent synchronization to the PFC sec-
tion of the device, from which it also derives its basic timing.
The PWM is capable of current-mode or voltage mode oper-
ation. In current-mode applications, the PWM ramp (RAMP
2) is usually derived directly from a current sensing resistor
or current transformer in the primary of the output stage, and
is thereby representative of the current flowing in the con-
verter’s output stage. DC ILIMIT, which provides cycle-by-
cycle current limiting, is typically connected to RAMP 2 in
such applications. For voltage-mode operation or certain
specialized applications, RAMP 2 can be connected to a sep-
arate RC timing network to generate a voltage ramp against
which VDC will be compared. Under these conditions, the
use of voltage feedforward from the PFC buss can assist in
line regulation accuracy and response. As in current mode
operation, the DC ILIMIT input would is used for output stage
overcurrent protection.
• Higher voltage (>1000V) PWM switches
• More carefully designed and tested PWM transformers
• Clamps and/or snubbers when needed
Also, slope compensation will be required in most current
mode PWM designs.
For those who want to approach the limits of attainable per-
formance (most commonly high-volume, low-cost supplies),
the ML4827-2’s 70% maximum PWM duty cycle offers sev-
eral desirable design capabilities. Using a 70% duty cycle
makes it essential to perform a careful magnetics design and
component stress analysis before finalizing designs with the
ML4827-2.
The ML4827-2: Special Considerations for
High Duty Cycles
No voltage error amplifier is included in the PWM stage of
the ML4827, as this function is generally performed on the
output side of the PWM’s isolation boundary. To facilitate
the design of optocoupler feedback circuitry, an offset has
been built into the PWM’s RAMP 2 input which allows VDC
to command a zero percent duty cycle for input voltages
below 1.25V.
The use of the ML4827-1, especially with the type of PWM
output stage shown in the Application Circuit of Figure 6, is
straightforward due to the limitation of the PWM duty cyle
to 50% maximum. In fact, one of the advantages of the “two-
transistor single-ended forward converter” shown in Figure 6
is that it will necessarily reset the core, with no additional
winding required, as long as the core does not go into satura-
tion during the topology's maximum permissible 50% duty
cycle.
Maximum Duty Cycle
In the ML4827-1, the maximum duty cycle of the PWM sec-
tion is limited to 50% for ease of use and design. In the case
of the ML4827-2, the maximum duty cycle of the PWM sec-
tion is extended to 70% (typical) for enhanced utilization of
the inductor. Operation at 70% duty cycle requires special
care in circuit design to avoid volt-second imbalances, and/
or high-voltage damage to the PWM switch transistor(s).
For the “-2” version of the ML4827, the maximum duty
cycle (δ) of the PWM is nominally 70%. As the two-transis-
tor single-ended forward converter cannot be used at duty
cycles greater than 50%, high-δ applications require the use
of either a single-transistor forward converter (with a trans-
former reset winding), or a flyback output stage. In either
case, special concerns arise regarding the peak voltage
appearing on the PWM switch transistor, the PWM output
transformer, and associated power components as the duty
cycle increases. For any output stage topology, the available
on-time (core “set” time) is (1/fPWM) x δ, while the reset time
for the core of the PWM output transformer is (1/fPWM) x
(1–δ). This means that the magnetizing inductance of the
core charges for a period of (1/fPWM) x δ, and must be com-
pletely discharged during a period of (1/fPWM) x (1–δ). The
ratio of these two periods, multiplied by the maximum value
of the PFC’s VBUSS, yields the minimum voltage for which
the PWM output transistor must be rated. Frequently, the
design of the tranformer’s reset winding, and/or of the output
transistor’s snubbers or clamps, require an additional voltage
margin of 100V to 200V.
Using the ML4827-2
The ML4827-2’s higher PWM duty cycle offers several
design advantages that skilled power supply and magnetics
engineers can take advantage of, including:
• Reduced RMS and peak PWM switch currents
• Reduced RMS and peak PWM transformer currents
• Easier RFI/EMI filtering due to lower peak currents
These reduced currents can result in cost savings by allowing
smaller PWM transformer primary windings and fewer turns
on forward converter reset windings. Long duty cycles, by
allowing greater utilization of the PFC’s stored charge, can
also lower the cost of PFC bus capacitors while still offering
long “hold-up” times.

To put some numbers into the discussion, with a given
VBUSS(MAX) of 400V:
ance for the timing capacitors and resistors. A tolerance on
(RRAMP2 x CRAMP2) of 2% is the simplest “brute force” way
to achieve the desired result. This should be combined with
an external duty cycle clamp. This protects the PWM cir-
cuitry against the condition in which the output has been
shorted, and the error amplifier output (VDC) would other-
wise be driven to its upper rail. One method which works
well when the PWM is used in voltage mode is to limit the
maximum input to the PWM feedback voltage (VDC). If the
voltage available to this pin is derived from the ML4827’s
7.5V VREF, it will be in close ratio to the charging time of the
RAMP2 capacitor. This will be true whether the RAMP2
capacitor is charged from VREF, or, as is more commonly
done in voltage-mode applications, from the output of the
PFC Stage (the “feedforward” configuration). Figure 3
shows such a duty cycle clamp.

VIN OK Comparator
The VIN OK comparator monitors the DC output of the PFC
and inhibits the PWM if this voltage on VFB is less than its
nominal 2.5V. Once this voltage reaches 2.5V, which corre-
sponds to the PFC output capacitor being charged to its rated
boost voltage, the soft-start begins.
Generating VCC
The ML4827 is a current-fed part. It has an internal shunt
voltage regulator, which is designed to regulate the voltage
internal to the part at 13.5V. This allows a low power dissipa-
tion while at the same time delivering 10V of gate drive at
the PWM OUT and PFC OUT outputs. It is important to
limit the current through the part to avoid overheating or
destroying it. This can be easily done with a single resistor in
series with the VCC pin, returned to a bias supply of typically
18V to 20V. The resistor’s value must be chosen to meet the
operating current requirement of the ML4827 itself (19mA
max) plus the current required by the two gate driver outputs.
PWM Control (RAMP 2)
When the PWM section is used in current mode, RAMP 2 is
generally used as the sampling point for a voltage represent-
ing the current in the primary of the PWM’s output trans-
former, derived either by a current sensing resistor or a
current transformer. In voltage mode, it is the input for a
ramp voltage generated by a second set of timing compo-
nents (RRAMP2, CRAMP2), which will have a minimum value
of zero volts and should have a peak value of approximately
5V. In voltage mode operation, feedforward from the PFC
output buss is an excellent way to derive the timing ramp for
the PWM stage.
EXAMPLE:
With a V

of 20V, a VCC limit of 14.6V (max) and the
ML4827 driving a total gate charge of 110nC at 100kHz

gate driver current required is:

IGATEDRIVE = 100kHz × 100nC = 11mA
Start-up of the PWM is controlled by the selection of the
external capacitor at SS. A current source of 50µA supplies
the charging current for the capacitor, and start-up of the
PWM begins at 1.25V. Start-up delay can be programmed by
the following equation:
20V – 14.6V
RBIAS = -------------------------------------- = 180Ω

The ML4827 should be locally bypassed with a 10nF and a

lation is determined during the ON time of the switch. Figure
5 shows a typical trailing edge control scheme.
In the case of leading edge modulation, the switch is turned
OFF right at the leading edge of the system clock. When the
modulating ramp reaches the level of the error amplifier out-
put voltage, the switch will be turned ON. The effective
duty-cycle of the leading edge modulation is determined dur-
ing the OFF time of the switch. Figure 6 shows a leading
edge control scheme.
Leading/Trailing Modulation
Conventional Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) techniques
employ trailing edge modulation in which the switch will
turn on right after the trailing edge of the system clock. The
error amplifier output voltage is then compared with the
modulating ramp. When the modulating ramp reaches the
level of the error amplifier output voltage, the switch will be
turned OFF. When the switch is ON, the inductor current will
ramp up. The effective duty cycle of the trailing edge modu-
One of the advantages of this control technique is that it
requires only one system clock. Switch 1 (SW1) turns off
and switch 2 (SW2) turns on at the same instant to minimize
the momentary “no-load” period, thus lowering ripple volt-
age generated by the switching action. With such
