STMicroelectronics STCMB1TR

The STCMB1TR from STMicroelectronics is a highly integrated power management IC designed for Transition Mode (TM) Power Factor Correction (PFC) and LLC resonant half-bridge converter applications. This device combines a high voltage double-ended controller, an 800V-rated high voltage section, and the necessary glue logic to supervise the operation of these blocks. It is packaged in a SO20W package, making it suitable for a variety of high-power applications.

• Enhanced Constant On-Time PFC: Uses a proprietary constant on-time control methodology without requiring a sinusoidal input reference, reducing system cost and external component count.
• Integrated Input Voltage Sensing: High voltage start-up with integrated input voltage sensing.
• Active Input Filter Capacitor Discharge: Compliant with IEC 62368-1 and UL Demko certified, reducing standby power.
• Complete Set of Protections: Includes ac brown-in/out, inrush control, OVP, OCP, inductor saturation, feedback disconnection, and more.
• LLC Controller Features: Proprietary timeshift control for improved input ripple rejection and dynamic response, half-bridge operation up to 750 kHz, and self-adjusting deadtime.
• Synchronous Burst Mode Operation: Enhances light-load efficiency by allowing both PFC and HB to work intermittently synchronized.
• Hard Switching Prevention (HSP): Prevents hard switching in the initial cycles and ensures soft-switching.

• Ac-dc Adapters and Open Frame SMPS: Suitable for high-power ac-dc adapters and open frame switch-mode power supplies.
• SMPs for LED TV, Desktop, and All-in-One PC: Compliant with energy efficiency standards such as EuP Lot 6, DOE, and European CoC ver. 5, Tier 2.
• Consumer and Industrial SMPS: Meets various regulatory requirements for consumer and industrial switch-mode power supplies.
• LED Street Lighting: Efficient and reliable solution for LED street lighting applications).
