DESCRIPTION
The LT
®
1508 is a complete solution for universal off-line
switching power supplies utilizing active power factor
correction. The PFC section is identical to the LT1248 PFC
controller except the EN/SYNC pin is removed because
PFC and PWM are synchronized internally.
The voltage mode PWM section (LT1509 is the current
mode counterpart) contains all the primary side functions
to convert the PFC preregulated high voltage output to an
isolated low voltage output. The PWM duty cycle is
internally limited to 47% (maximum 50%) to prevent
transformer saturation. PWM soft start begins when the
PFC output reaches the preset voltage. In the event of brief
line loss, PWM will be shut off when the PFC output
voltage drops below 73% of the preset value.

LT1508
DESCRIPTION
By using fixed high frequency PWM current averaging
without the need for slope compensation, the LT1508
achieves far lower line current distortion with a smaller
magnetic element than systems that use either peak
current detection, or zero current switching approach, in
both continuous and discontinuous modes of operation.
The LT1508 also provides filtering capability to reject line
switching noise which can cause instability when fed into
the multiplier. Line current dead zone is minimized with
low bias voltage at the current input to the multiplier. The
LT1508 provides many protection features including peak
current limiting and overvoltage protection. Implemented
with a very high speed process, the LT1508 can be
operated at frequencies as high as 300kHz.
