Key Features

  • Current-mode PWM control architecture enabling precise peak current limiting and inherent cycle-by-cycle protection in PFC boost converters
  • 2 A maximum output gate drive current supporting fast switching of medium to large MOSFET transistors in PFC stages
  • 11 V to 19.5 V operating supply range compatible with standard VCC rails derived from auxiliary windings in off-line converters
  • 20-pin SOIC package with low-profile SMT footprint for compact AC-DC power supply board layouts

Applications

The E-L4981AD013TR targets AC-DC power supply designs requiring active power factor correction to meet IEC 61000-3-2 harmonic current emission standards. It is commonly used in the PFC boost stage of PC power supplies, LED driver ballasts, and industrial SMPS units rated from 75 W to several hundred watts. The current-mode PWM control ensures the input current waveform tracks the line voltage sinusoid, pushing power factor above 0.99 in properly designed boost PFC circuits.

Frequently Asked Questions

What control mode and gate drive capability does the E-L4981AD013TR provide for PFC boost converter designs?

The E-L4981AD013TR uses current-mode PWM control and delivers up to 2 A peak gate drive current, enabling fast turn-on and turn-off of power MOSFETs in boost PFC stages. This combination allows the converter to shape input current to follow the AC line voltage, achieving power factors above 0.99 in 75 W to 300 W off-line power supplies.

Which off-line power supply applications benefit from the E-L4981AD013TR power factor correction controller?

PC ATX power supplies, LED driver modules, and industrial SMPS units must comply with IEC 61000-3-2 Class C or D harmonic current limits, which requires active PFC. The E-L4981AD013TR provides the PWM control loop for a boost PFC stage operating from 11 V to 19.5 V VCC, fitting neatly into auxiliary-wound offline converter topologies powering loads from 75 W upward.

How does the E-L4981AD013TR 20-pin SOIC package compare to a DIP package option for high-density PSU PCB layouts?

The 20-pin SOIC package of the E-L4981AD013TR has a body width of approximately 7.5 mm and a pin pitch of 1.27 mm, occupying roughly 60% less PCB area than a 20-pin DIP equivalent. This size reduction is significant in compact AC-DC power supplies where the PFC controller must fit alongside large boost inductors and bulk capacitors within a constrained PCB boundary.
