Isolated power factor corrected offline regulator needs no opto

Isolated power factor corrected offline regulator needs no opto

Linear Technology announces the LT3798, an isolated flyback controller with single stage active power factor correction (PFC). A power factor of greater than 0.97% is accomplished by actively modulating the input current eliminating the need for an extra switching power stage and associated components. In addition, no opto-isolator or signal transformer is required for feedback since the output voltage is sensed from the primary-side flyback signal.


A LT3798-based design easily complies with the IEC6100-3-2 Harmonic Current Emissions specification. Efficiencies greater than 86% can be achieved with output power levels up to 100W. The device's input voltage range is dependent on the choice of external components and it can operate over a 90VAC to 277VAC range, and can easily be scaled higher or lower. Furthermore, the LT3798 can be designed into high input voltage DC applications, making it well suited for industrial, EV/EHV automotive, mining and medical applications. The LT3798 utilizes mode operation enabling the use of a smaller transformer compared to continuous conduction mode designs, further reducing the solution size.

The LT3798 is available in a thermally enhanced 16-pin MSOP package. The LT3798E version operates from -40°C to 125°C, with 1000-piece price starting at $X.XX each. The LT3798I industrial grade version operates from -40°C to 125°C, with 1,000-piece pricing starting at $X.XX each. The LT3798H industrial grade version operates from -40°C to 150°C, with 1,000-piece pricing starting at $X.XX each. All are available from stock.

The development platform for i.MX 6Quad from element14 (built to the Freescale SABRE Lite design) is an evaluation platform featuring the powerful i.MX 6Q, a multimedia application processor with Quad ARM Cortex-A9 cores at 1.2 GHz from Freescale Semiconductor.

This month, Freescale and element14 are giving away five such platforms, worth £128.06 each, for EETimes Europe's readers to win. The platform helps evaluate the rich set of peripherals and includes a 10/100/Gb Ethernet port, SATA-II, HDMI v1.4, LVDS, parallel RGB interface, touch screen interface, analog headphone/microphone, micro TF and SD card interface, USB, serial port, JTAG, camera interface, and input keys for Android. 


 

And the winners are...

In our previous reader offer, Pico Technology was giving away one of its recently launched PicoScope 3207B, a 2-channel USB 3.0 oscilloscope worth 1451 Euros. Lucky winner Mr L. Sanchez-Gonzalez from Spain should be receiving his PicoScope 3207B soon. Let's wish them some interesting findings with his projects.
