The UCC28085PW is a versatile and robust active Power Factor Correction (PFC) controller IC from Texas Instruments, designed to enhance power efficiency and reduce energy consumption in a wide array of applications. This advanced controller is housed in a compact 8-pin TSSOP package, making it suitable for space-constrained designs.
At the heart of the UCC28085PW lies a BiCMOS process technology which enables the integration of low-power, high-speed circuits with power and precision analog circuits on the same chip. This technology ensures that the device delivers optimal performance in managing and correcting the power factor of AC-DC power systems, leading to improved energy efficiency and reduced harmonic distortion.
One of the key features of this PFC controller is its ability to operate over a wide supply voltage range of 9 V to 25 V, which makes it adaptable to a variety of power systems. The UCC28085PW also boasts a programmable switching frequency that can be set from 16 kHz to 250 kHz, allowing designers to optimize their applications for efficiency or component size.
The UCC28085PW incorporates advanced features such as soft-start, which ensures a controlled startup and reduces stress on the power supply components. Additionally, the device includes protections like peak current limit and overvoltage protection, which safeguard the system against potentially damaging conditions.
This PFC controller is ideal for applications such as AC-DC adapters, power supplies for desktops, servers, and televisions, as well as lighting systems. Its high level of integration, coupled with Texas Instruments' commitment to quality, makes the UCC28085PW a reliable choice for designers looking to enhance the power factor and efficiency of their power supply designs.
