2.2.4 Concept Summary

Both the PFC solutions can be used for applications that do not require a large portion of the MCU’s resources, because they consume only a fraction of the MCU performance. Compared to a dedicated IC solution, digital PFC offers high flexibility and cost reduction in the overall design, as the PFC function can be provided within the MCU capability of the main application. Digital PFC also provides additional benefits such as a wide range of input voltages (85 V to 265 V AC) at a constant output DC voltage.

However, hysteresis current control mode is more suitable for power above 100W, and discontinuous conduction mode for low power consumption.
