ST Launches Multiplier-Free PFC Controller 'L6462A'
STMicroelectronics launched the 'L6462A' transition mode power factor correction (PFC) controller with a multiplier-free architecture on June 18. By generating sinusoidal reference signals using a current source and waveform shaper instead of a voltage sensor and analog multiplier, it enables the design of boost PFC converters without external voltage dividers. With standby current as low as 60μA or less and valley switching, it meets eco-friendly design standards and supports cost reduction and efficiency improvement in power supply units for home appliances such as up to 250W-class battery chargers, power adapters, and flat-panel TVs. Pricing starts from $0.18 based on 1,000 units.
