Purposes of PFC Control

Reducing harmonic current

This figure shows an example of using PFC Control ICs.

(Application Example)

This figure shows an example of current waveforms before and after harmonic current reduction.

Current Waveforms

Power-saving
  • Improves the power factor by reducing the harmonic content of a current.
    Stabilizes the AC input.
  • Stabilizes the PFC current.
    Enables a power supply circuit to keep a constant supply of a nearly perfect sinusoidal current.

This figure shows how power reduction is achieved with PFC control.

CCM Continuous Conduction Mode (TB6818FG)
･Suitable for power levels above 200 W
･Fairly complicated circuit
CRM Critical Conduction Mode (TB6819AFG)
･Suitable for power levels below 200 W
･Relatively simple circuit

Product Lineup

Toshiba offers PFC control ICs that operate in continuous conduction mode (CCM) or in critical conduction mode (CRM):
