NXP's new DCM PFC + LLC resonant controller is based on NXP's novel cycle-by-cycle architecture (capacitive voltage control). The part will be released as a combo in a separate SO8 and SO16 package. The combo controller features very high-efficiency at light load (10 % - 30 %) to be compliant with tomorrow's energy efficiency regulations (Energy Star v6, CoC tier 2, 80+ Platinum). The TEA1916 also features low no-load power below 75 mW and meets EuP lot6. The LLC resonant topology makes it easier to meet Common Mode Noise requirements and 200 % peak power requirements (compared to flyback).
Last but not least the part guarantees ease of design while supporting accurate burst mode and reduced audible noise.
Feature
Improved, easier design due to cycle-by-cycle capacitive voltage control, which is linear related to the output power
Different modes overload range ensure the highest possible efficiency, especially at lower loads
Low standby power performance, complying to all regulations while saving BOM cost (e.g. aux. supply can be omitted)
