Introduction
The power board STEVAL-ISF001V1 is a 3 kW PFC designed for industrial and domestic
applications. The board must be used for demonstration purposes in order to evaluate the
potential of the FOT (fixed-off-time control, patented by ST) to implement a high-power PFC
with performance comparable to a standard continuous-mode PFC, but using a simpler
controller chip originally designed for TM (transition-mode) PFC operating conditions. This
demonstration board works directly from the AC mains supply in the single range voltage
(185 Vrms - 265 Vrms) and provides a 400 V stable and regulated DC bus output capable of
a maximum of 7.5 A.
The low voltage necessary to supply the driver is generated by an auxiliary winding on the
main inductor, so an external power supply is not needed to start the operation of the board.
The design is:
quick to set up and install
re-usable (the Gerber files are available for free)
ready for downsizing if required.

    UM0673 Safety and operating instructions Safety and operating instructions General During assembly and operation the 3 kW FOT PFC board poses several inherent hazards including bare wires and hot surfaces. If the board or its components are improperly used or installed incorrectly, there is danger of serious personal injury and damage to property.

    Hardware layout Figure 4. Power board 3 kW FOT PFC STEVAL-ISF001V1 (top view) The mains input connector is present on the right side of the board. Connect a sinusoidal supply voltage with amplitude in the range of 185 Vrms to 265 Vrms. The power source has to be able to supply the power required by the system, according to the output load the user intends to connect on the output port.
  • Page 7: Environmental Considerations

    It is preferable to test the kit in ambient temperature not higher than 45 degrees Celsius. Environmental considerations The STEVAL-ISF001V1 must only be used in a power laboratory. The high voltage involved in the system presents a serious shock hazard. If the board is to be used to measure or capture waveforms or any other interaction between the board and laboratory equipment, an AC-isolated power supply has to be used.

    ● Driver with inductor saturation detection ● Optimized EMC input filter. STEVAL-ISF001V1 circuit description Figure 5 shows the entire electronic schematic. Starting from the input section, a common-mode EMC filter is fitted in order to be compliant with the EMC regulations concerning industrial and domestic applications. (EN55014 and EN55022).
  • Page 10 PFC board connection UM0673 The chosen switching devices are two Power MOSFETs, MDmesh™ II family, STW55NM60N. These two Power MOSFETs placed in parallel assure a low R , limiting DS(on) the conduction power losses. Good efficiency and good thermal behavior of the system can be reached. In order to properly drive the two Power MOSFETs and to minimize switching losses, during the on and off transient, a small push-pull driver was interposed between the driver and the two gates.
