http://onsemi.com
The NCP1601 is a controller designed for Power Factor Correction
(PFC) boost circuits. The device operates in fixed-- frequency
Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM) and variable-- frequency
Critical Conduction Mode (CRM) and takes advantages from both
operating modes. DCM limits the maximum switching frequency. It
simplifies the front-- ended EMI filter design. CRM limits the
maximum currents of the boost stage diode, MOSFET and inductor.
It reduces the costs and improves the reliability of the circuit. This
device substantially exhibits unity power factor while operating in
DCM and CRM. The NCP1601 minimizes the required number of
external components. It incorporates high safety protection features
that make the NCP1601 suitable for robust and compact PFC stages.

1
FB
Feedback /
Shutdown
This pin receives a current IFB which is proportional to the PFC circuit output voltage. The current is
for the output regulation, output Overvoltage Protection (OVP), and output undervoltage protection
(UVP).
When IFB goes above 107% Iref, OVP is activated and the Drive Output is disabled.
When IFB goes below 8% Iref, the device enters a low--current consumption shutdown mode.
2
Vcontrol
Control
The voltage of this pin Vcontrol directly controls the input impedance and hence the power factor of
the circuit. This pin is connected to an external capacitor to limit the control voltage Vcontrol bandwidth typically below 20 Hz to achieve Power Factor Correction.
3
Ramp
Ramp
This pin is connected to an external capacitor to set a ramp signal. The capacitor value directly
affects the input impedance of the PFC circuit and hence the maximum input power.
4
CS
Current Sense
This pin sources a current IS which depends on the inductor current and an offset voltage. The
current is for Overcurrent Protection (OCP) and zero current detection.
When IS is above 200 mA, OCP is activated and the Drive Output is disabled.
When IS is below 14 mA, the circuit detects a zero current. This information is used by the on--time
modulation arrangement and by the oscillator block.
5
Osc
Oscillator /
Synchronization
In oscillator mode, this pin is connected to an external capacitor to set the oscillator frequency of
the DCM operation.
In synchronization mode, this pin is connected to an external driving signal. The positive edge of the
drive output is synchronized to the negative edge of the external signal in DCM operation.
If the inductor current is non--zero at the end of a switching period, the output drive is not allowed to
turn on. CCM operation is prohibited. Instead, the circuit operates in CRM in this case.

NCP1601A, NCP1601B
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Introduction
conditions, CRM can be an alternative option which is
without power factor degradation. On the other hand, the
NCP1601 can be viewed as a CRM controller with a
frequency clamp (maximum switching frequency limit)
alternative option which is also without power factor
degradation. In summary, the NCP1601 can cover both
CRM and DCM without power factor degradation. Based
on the selections of the boost inductor and the oscillator
frequency, the circuit is capable of the following three
applications.
1. “Mostly in CRM” with a frequency clamp set by
the oscillator or synchronization frequency.
2. “Mostly in fixed-- frequency mode DCM” and
only run in CRM at high load and low line.
3. “Fixed-- frequency DCM” only.
The NCP1601 is a Power Factor Correction (PFC) boost
controller designed to operate in Discontinuous
Conduction Mode (DCM) and Critical Conduction Mode
(CRM). The fixed-- frequency nature of DCM limits the
maximum switching frequency. It limits the possible
conducted and radiated EMI noise that may pollute
surrounding systems. NCP1601 offers the simplest solution
to PFC including fewer external circuit components and
simple voltage-- mode feedback. The diode turn-- off
switching loss is negligible and hence there is no need to
use a low reverse-- recovery time trr diode. On the other
hand, the CRM feature is added to limit the maximum
current stress to twice of the average current. The NCP1601
incorporates high safety protection features and combines
the advantages of DCM and CRM so that the NCP1601 is
suitable for robust and compact PFC stages.
The NCP1601 provides the following protection features:
1. Overvoltage Protection (OVP) is activated and
the output drive goes low when the output voltage
exceeds 107% of the nominal regulation level
which is a user-- defined value. The circuit
automatically resumes operation when the output
voltage becomes lower than 107%.
2. Undervoltage Protection (UVP) is activated and
the device is shut down when the output voltage
goes below 8% of the nominal regulation level.
The circuit automatically resumes operation when
the output voltage goes above 8% of the nominal
regulation level. This feature also provides output
open-- loop protection and external shutdown
feature.
3. Overcurrent Protection (OCP) is activated and
the output device goes low when the inductor
current exceeds a user-- defined value. The
operation automatically resumes when the
inductor current becomes lower than this
user-- defined value at the next clock cycle.
4. Thermal Shutdown (TSD) is activated and the
output drive is disabled when the junction
temperature exceeds 140C. The operation
resumes when the junction temperature falls
down by typical 45C.

Figure 25. Operating Modes
DCM needs higher peak inductor current comparing to
CRM in the same averaged input current. Hence, CRM is
generally preferred at around the sinusoidal peak for lower
the maximum current stress but DCM is also preferred at
the non-- peak region to avoid excessive switching
frequencies. Because of the variable-- frequency feature of
the CRM and constant-- frequency feature of DCM,
switching frequency is the maximum in the DCM region
and hence the minimum switching frequency will be found
at the moment of the sinusoidal peak.
DCM PFC Circuit
A DCM/CRM PFC boost converter is shown in Figure 26.
Input voltage is a rectified 50 or 60 Hz sinusoidal signal. The
MOSFET is switching at a high frequency (typically around
100 kHz) so that the inductor current IL basically consists of
high--frequency and low--frequency components.
Filter capacitor Cfilter is an essential and very small value
capacitor in order to eliminate the high-- frequency content
of the DCM inductor current IL. This filter capacitor cannot
The NCP1601 is available in two versions. The
NCP1601A has a typical 4.75 V undervoltage lockout
(UVLO) hysteresis, while NCP1601B has a typical 1.5 V
UVLO hysteresis. It allows the use of different VCC biasing
schemes.

When IFB is lower than 96% of Iref, the Vreg which is the
output of the regulation block is as high as Vcontrol(max)
(1.05 V typical) that gives the maximum value on Vton. As
a result, it gives the maximum MOSFET on time and Vout
increases. When IFB is higher than Iref, the Vreg becomes 0
V that gives no MOSFET on time and Vout decreases. As
a result, the output voltage Vout is regulated around the
range between 96% and 100% of the nominal value of RFB
 Iref.
Based on (eq.8) for a particular power level, the Vcontrol
is inversely proportional to Vac2. Hence, in high Vac

From (eq.8), control voltage Vcontrol controls the amount

maximum value of the control voltage Vcontrol is 1.05 V

power resistor Rpower (10.5 kΩ typical) is defined in (eq.9)
and restricted to have a maximum 10% variation
(i.e., 9.5 kΩ  Rpower  11.5 kΩ) for defining the maximum
power in an application.

voltage is higher based on the regulation block
characteristic in Figure 31. On the other hand, the Vcontrol
in the low Vac condition is much higher than the high Vac
condition. In order to not over-- design the circuit in the
application, the Vcontrol in the low Vac condition is usually
very closed to Vcontrol(max). It makes the output voltage be
almost 96% of the nominal value of RFB  Iref in low Vac
condition while the output voltage is almost 100% of the
nominal value RFB  Iref in high Vac condition.
The feedback resistor RFB consists of two or three high
precision resistors in order to set the nominal Vout precisely
and safety purpose.
The regulation block output Vreg is connected to control
voltage Vcontrol through an internal resistor Rcontrol
(300 kΩ typical) for the low-- pass filter in Figure 30. The
Vcontrol and the time information of zero current are
collected in the Vcontrol processing circuit to generate Vton
which is then compared to a ramp signal to generate the

Figure 32. Current Sensing
Inductor current IL passes through RCS and creates a
negative voltage. This voltage is measured by a current IS
flowing out of the CS pin (Pin 4). The CS pin has an offset
voltage VS. This offset voltage is studied in the setting of
zero inductor current IL(ZCD) and the maximum inductor
current IL(OCP) (i.e., overcurrent protection threshold). A
typical variation of offset voltage VS versus sense current
IS is shown in Figure 15. Higher the value of the offset
voltage at low current region creates lower the zero current
threshold for better accuracy. Based on Figure 32, (eq.13)
is derived.
Overvoltage Protection (OVP)
When the feedback current IFB is higher than 107% of the
reference current Iref (i.e., the output voltage Vout is higher
than 107% of its nominal value), the Drive Output pin
(Pin 7) of the device goes low for protection and the switch
of the Vcontrol processing circuit is kept off. The circuit
automatically resumes operation when the output voltage
is lower than 107%.
The maximum OVP threshold is limited to 225 mA which
corresponds to 225 mA  1.95 MΩ + 5 V = 443.75 V when
RFB = 1.95 MΩ (1.8 MΩ + 150 kΩ) and VFB1 = 5 V (for
the worst case referring to Figure 11). Hence, it is generally
recommended to use 450 V rating output capacitor to allow
some design margin.
VS − RS IS = --RCS IL
(eq.13)
Zero Current Detection (ZCD)
The device recognizes zero inductor current when the CS
pin (Pin 4) sense current IS is lower than IS(ZCD) (14 mA
typical). The offset voltage of the CS pin in this condition
is VS(ZCD) (7.5 mV typical). It is illustrated in Figure 33.
The inductor current IL(ZCD) at the ZCD condition is
derived in (eq.14).
IL(ZCD) =
RSIS(ZCD) − VS(ZCD)
RCS
(eq.14)
It is obvious that the IL(ZCD) is not always zero. In order
to make it reasonably close to zero, the settings of RS and
RCS are crucial.
Undervoltage Protection (UVP)
When the feedback current IFB is lower than 8% of the
reference current Iref (i.e., the output voltage Vout is lower
than 8% of its nominal value), the device is shut down and
consumes lower than 50 mA. In normal situation of boost
converter configuration, the output voltage Vout is always
higher than the input voltage Vin and the feedback current
IFB is always higher than 8% of the reference current Iref.
It enables the NCP1601 to operate. Hence, UVP happens
when the output voltage is abnormally undervoltage, the
FB pin (Pin 1) is opened, or the FB pin (Pin 1) is manually
pulled low.

Current Sense
The device senses the inductor current IL by the current

implemented in the same pin.

Based on the CS pin (Pin 4) characteristics in Figure 15,
Figure 33 is studied. When the inductor current is exactly
zero (i.e., IL(ZCD) = 0), the ideal ZCD point in the Figure is
reached where RS is RS(ZCD) (536 Ω typical). Considering
the tolerance, the actual sense resistor RS is needed to be
higher than the ideal value of RS(ZCD) to ensure that zero
current signal is generated when sense current is smaller
than the ZCD threshold (i.e., IS < IS(ZCD)). That is,
RS > RS(ZCD) =
VS(ZCD)

The higher value of RS makes the longer distance
between the operating and ideal ZCD points in Figure 33.
Hence, RS has to be as low as possible. The best
recommended value of RS is therefore the maximum of
RS(ZCD) which is 1 kΩ.
Now that the RS is set at a particular value which is
greater than RS(ZCD). From (eq.13), the operating lines in

studied.

The NCP1601 is a DCM / CRM PFC controller. In order
to keep the operation in DCM or CRM only, the Drive
Output cannot turn on as long as there is some inductor
current flowing through the circuit. Hence, the zero current
signal is provided to the oscillator / synchronization block
in Figure 35. An input comparator monitors the Osc pin
(Pin 5) voltage and generates a clock signal. The negative
edge of the clock signal is stored in a RS latch. When zero
current is detected, the RS latch will be reset and a set signal
is sent to the output drive latch which turns on the MOSFET
in the PFC boost circuit. Figure 36 illustrates a typical
timing diagram of the oscillator block.

ZCD point
The Osc pin (Pin 5) is connected to an external capacitor
Cosc. When the voltage of this pin is above Vsync(H) (5 V
typical), the pin sinks a current Iodch (94 – 45 = 49 mA
typical) and the external capacitor Cosc discharges. When
the voltage reaches Vsync(L) (3.5 V typical), the pin sources
a current Ioch (45 mA typical) and the external capacitor
Cosc is charged. It is noted that there is a typical 300 ns
propagation delay and the 3.5 V and 5 V threshold
conditions are measured on 220 pF Cosc capacitor. Hence,
the actual oscillator hysteresis is a slightly smaller.
Figure 34. CS Pin Characteristic with Different
Inductor Current
It is noted in Figure 34 and (eq.16) that when the (RCS IL)
term is smaller the error or distance between the lines to the
line IL = 0 is smaller. Therefore, the value of the current
sense resistor RCS is also recommended to be as small as
possible to minimize the error in the zero current detection.

There are two UVLO options. The device typically starts
to operate when the supply voltage VCC exceeds 13.75 V
for NCP1601A and 10.5 V for NCP1601B. It turns off when
the supply voltage VCC goes below 9 V. An 18 V internal
ESD Zener diode is connected to the VCC pin (Pin 8).
Hence, the operating range is 9 V to 18 V.
The 4.75 V UVLO hysteresis option of the NCP1601A
and 14 mA low startup current make the self-- supply design
easier. The 1.5 V UVLO hysteresis option of NCP1601B

The Osc pin (Pin 5) receives an external digital signal
with level high defined to be higher than Vsync(H) (5 V
typical) and level low defined to be lower than Vsync(L)
(3.5 V typical). An internal 9 V ESD Zener diode is
connected to the Osc pin and hence the maximum

synchronization frequency by the time difference between
two falling edge instants when the synchronization signal
across the 3.5 V threshold points. The actual
synchronization threshold point is a slightly higher than the
3.5 V threshold point. The minimum synchronization pulse
width is 500 ns.
There is a typical 350 ns propagation delay from
synchronization threshold point to the moment of output goes
high and there is also a typical 300 ns propagation delay from
the synchronization threshold point to the moment of crossing
3.5 V. Hence, the output goes high apparently when the sync
Thermal Shutdown
An internal thermal circuitry disables the circuit gate
drive and then keeps the power switch off when the junction
temperature exceeds 140C. The output stage is then
enabled once the temperature drops below typically 95C
(i.e., 45C hysteresis). The thermal shutdown is provided
to prevent possible device failures that could result from an
accidental overheating.
Output Drive
The output stage of the device is designed for direct drive
of power MOSFET. It is capable of up to - 500 mA and
+750 mA peak drive current and has a typical rise and fall
time of 53 and 32 ns with a 1.0 nF load.
