Test Procedure for the NCP1654PFCGEVB Evaluation Board Test Equipments Setup (refer to Figure 1) 1. Apply a 500 Ω / above 400 W resistive load (or use a set of resistors placed in parallel) across the output (between the “+VOUT” and “-VOUT” TB2 terminals of the board) via 2 power switches, SW1 and SW2. 2. Apply a 3 k Ω / 400 W resistor load in parallel with above 500 Ω load via another power switch, SW3. 3. Apply one isolated ac power source which power range is above 500 VA to the TB1 of NCP1654 demo board through the power meter. 4. Place a power meter, e.g. WT210 from YAKOGOWA, to measure: The power delivered by the power source (“Pin”), The power factor (“PF”) and the Total Harmonic Distortion (“THD”) of the current absorbed from the ac power source. 5. Supply the controller by applying 15 V to the VCC socket (between the “+12 V” and “GND” TB3 terminals of the board). 6. Use one oscilloscope to measure: The output voltage of NCP1654 demo board (between the “+VOUT” and “-VOUT” TB2 terminals of the board) by one high voltage probe. The input current of NCP1654 demo board by one isolated current probe. Test 1: Start up at low line, full load Test conditions: 1. SW1 and SW2 close, SW3 open. (output load is full load) 2. AC input: 85 Vac, 60 Hz 3. Use 15 V dc source applied to TB3 to enable the operation. Test criteria: VOUT should be in the range from 378 V to 401 V.

Use 15 V dc source applied to TB3 to enable the operation. Test criteria: VOUT should be in the range from 378 V to 401 V. PF > 0.99 THD < 10% Efficiency > 94 %. Test 3: PF, THD, Efficiency at 230 Vac, full load Test conditions: 1. SW1 and SW 2 close, SW3 open (output load is full load) 2. AC input: 230 Vac, 50 Hz 3. Use 15 V dc source applied to TB3 to enable the operation. Test criteria: VOUT should be in the range from 378 V to 401 V. PF > 0.98 THD < 10% Efficiency > 97 %. 7/15/2013 -1- www.onsemi.com Test 4: Over Current Limitation at 85 Vac Test conditions: 1. SW1 and SW 2 close, SW3 open for start up. (output load is full load) 2. AC input: 85 Vac, 60 Hz 3. Use 15 V dc source applied to TB3 to enable the operation. 4. After start up, close SW3 to see the behavior of over-current limitation. Test criteria: The input current should be limited (refer to Ch4 of Figure 3) Test 5: Transient Response at 85 Vac Test conditions: 5. SW1 and SW3 open. SW 2 close. (output load is no load) 6. AC input: 85 Vac, 60 Hz 7. Use 15 V dc source applied to TB3 to enable the operation. 8. Measure VOUT by oscilloscope when closing SW1, i.e. change the output load from 0 A to full load. Test criteria: VOUT should be above 300 V (refer to Ch2 of Figure 4) Test 6: Over-Voltage Protection Test conditions: 1. SW1 and SW 2 close. SW3 open. (output load is full load) 2. AC input: 85 Vac, 60 Hz 3. Use 15 V dc source applied to TB3 to enable the operation. 4. Measure VOUT by oscilloscope at start up, i.e. start up at full load. Test criteria: VOUT should be below 420 V (refer to Ch2 of Figure 5) Test 7: Brown-Out Recovery Test conditions: 1. SW1 and SW 3 close. SW2 open (output load is around 0.13 A) 2. AC input: 60 Vac, 60 Hz 3. Use 15 V dc source applied to TB3 to enable the operation. 4. Measure VOUT by oscilloscope. Set the triggering level at about 200 V (rising edge), the trigger position being set at 30% of the screen. Program the scope to observe 40 ms around in single acquisition mode. 5. Increase Vac step by step (0.1 V for each step). Measure the Vac value when VOUT goes above 200 V. Test criteria: Vac should be below 85 Vac (refer to Ch1 of Figure 6) Test 8: Brown-Out Test conditions: 6. SW1 and SW 3 close. SW2 open (output load is around 0.13 A) 7. AC input: 85 Vac, 60 Hz 8. Use 15 V dc source applied to TB3 to enable the operation. 9. Measure VOUT by oscilloscope. Set the triggering level at about 200 V (falling edge), the trigger position being set at 70% of the screen. Program the scope to observe 40 ms around in single acquisition mode. 10. Decrease Vac step by step (0.1 V for each step). Measure the Vac value when VOUT goes below 200 V. Test criteria: Vac should be above 60 Vac (refer to Ch1 of Figure 7) 7/15/2013 -2- www.onsemi.com Oscilloscope High voltage probe (>500 V) Isolated current probe NCP1654 demo board Isolated ac power source (500 VA, 50/60 Hz sinusoidal voltage) SW1 Input Socket +Vout -Vout V A Power Meter (e.g. WT210) Vcc GND SW2 500 Ω resistor load SW3 3k Ω resistor load Dc Source 15 V Caution: The board contains high voltage, hot, live parts. Be very cautions when manipulating or testing it.
