Product overview
Description
The STSW-TTPPFC01 provides a highly sophisticated control for the STEVAL-TTPPFC013-channel interleaved bridgeless totem-pole PFC with resonant ZVS digital control, to boost the conversion efficiency.
The STSW-TTPPFC01 is fully implemented in the STM32G474QET6. It includes: a slow outer voltage loop for the output voltage regulation, a faster inner current loop for the inductor currents control, and an input rectification function for the mains synchronization.
The sophisticated and high performance inner current loop is a hysteresis current control implemented through internal DACs, fast comparators, and the powerful HRTIM peripheral of the STM32G474QET6. Thus, the highest possible bandwidth and cycle-by-cycle regulation are ensured.
The outer voltage loop is performed through a digital PI controller with a fast input and load feedforward. It enhances the PFC dynamic response if a load step or an input voltage variation occurs.
