Product details
Overview
IR1150STR from Infineon Technologies is a high-voltage active clamp flyback PFC controller operating in continuous conduction mode (CCM), featuring 600 V startup capability, integrated 600 V high-side gate driver, and programmable soft-start. It delivers precise average current-mode control for universal-input AC-DC front-end stages in industrial power supplies and LED drivers.
For engineers reviewing the IR1150STR datasheet, IR1150STR pinout, IR1150STR application, or IR1150STR equivalent, key selection considerations include its CCM operation with valley-switching optimization, built-in overvoltage/overcurrent protection, and compatibility with high-efficiency 8-pin SOIC-based PFC designs.
Technical Context
The IR1150STR implements average current-mode control using an internal transconductance error amplifier and PWM comparator with slope compensation. It integrates a 600 V startup circuit that draws <100 µA quiescent current until VCC reaches 12.5 V, enabling direct HV startup without auxiliary winding.
Valley-switching logic synchronizes MOSFET turn-on to the drain voltage minimum in discontinuous valleys, reducing switching loss. Protection features include cycle-by-cycle current limiting, output overvoltage lockout (OVP threshold = 4.7 V), and thermal shutdown at 150 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Topology Support | Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) boost PFC only - enables high-power-factor correction (>0.98) across universal AC input range (85–265 VAC). |
| Startup Voltage | 600 V HV startup - eliminates need for external startup resistor network and reduces no-load power consumption. |
| Gate Driver | Integrated 600 V high-side driver - drives external N-channel MOSFET directly without bootstrap diode or capacitor. |
| Current Sense | Voltage-to-current transconductance amplifier with 1.5 V current limit threshold - supports accurate cycle-by-cycle peak current limiting via sense-resistor feedback. |
| OVP Threshold | 4.7 V on VSENSE pin - triggers latched shutdown when output exceeds safe DC bus level, protecting downstream converters. |
| Soft-Start Time | Programmable via external capacitor (typ. 20 ms with 100 nF) - prevents inrush current and stabilizes PFC output during power-up. |
Pinout & Package
IR1150STR is housed in an 8-pin SOIC package (SOIC-8, body width 3.9 mm, pitch 1.27 mm), with exposed pad for thermal enhancement. Pin 1 is marked by dot; pin numbering follows standard SOIC convention (counterclockwise from top-left corner).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Supply voltage input | Internal LDO input; accepts 11–20 V after startup; powers internal logic and gate driver. |
| GND | Power and signal ground | Common reference for all analog and digital circuits; must be low-inductance connection to source of main MOSFET. |
| HO | High-side gate driver output | Drives gate of external N-channel MOSFET; rated for 600 V blocking and 1 A peak sink/source. |
| VS | High-side source monitor | Connects to source of main MOSFET; enables high-side current sensing and valley detection. |
| CS | Current sense input | Receives voltage from current-sense resistor; sets peak current limit at 1.5 V threshold. |
| VSENSE | Output voltage feedback | Monitors PFC output via resistive divider; OVP lockout triggered at 4.7 V. |
| COMP | Error amplifier output | Integrates error signal from transconductance amplifier; connects to external compensation network. |
| RT | Soft-start timing input | Connects to external capacitor; sets soft-start duration and also influences oscillator frequency. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 600 V HV startup circuit | Enables direct connection to rectified AC line; reduces standby power by eliminating startup resistor losses. |
| Integrated high-side gate driver | Eliminates need for external level-shifting circuitry or isolated gate drivers in CCM boost PFC designs. |
| Valley-switching detection | Reduces MOSFET switching loss by triggering turn-on at minimum drain-source voltage, improving efficiency at light loads. |
| Latched overvoltage protection | Halts switching and holds shutdown until power cycle reset; prevents damage to bulk capacitor and downstream converters. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar CCM boost PFC controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STMicroelectronics L6562A | Requires external high-side driver; no integrated 600 V startup; uses 0.5 V CS threshold. | Lacks HV startup and integrated driver - needs auxiliary winding and discrete level shifter. | Prefer when cost sensitivity outweighs board space constraints and design simplicity. |
| ON Semiconductor NCP1653 | Fixed-frequency CCM controller; no valley-switching; 12 V max VCC rating. | Needs external 12 V bias supply; less efficient at light loads due to fixed-frequency operation. | Select when deterministic switching frequency is required for EMI filtering predictability. |
Compared with L6562A and NCP1653, the IR1150STR provides higher integration (HV startup + gate driver), superior light-load efficiency via valley switching, and simplified PCB layout-making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability industrial PFC designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the IR1150STR?
The IR1150STR operates with a programmable switching frequency up to 250 kHz, set by the external RT capacitor value. Frequency increases linearly with decreasing RT capacitance; typical design targets 65–100 kHz for optimal efficiency and EMI performance in 300–500 W applications.
Does the IR1150STR require an auxiliary winding for VCC supply?
No. The IR1150STR features an integrated 600 V high-voltage startup circuit that draws current directly from the rectified AC line, eliminating the need for an auxiliary winding or startup resistor network after initial power-up.
How does the valley-switching function improve efficiency?
Valley-switching detects the minimum drain-source voltage point in the MOSFET's resonant ring-down period and triggers gate turn-on there, minimizing turn-on switching loss. This reduces conduction and switching losses by up to 15% at light loads compared to fixed-frequency CCM controllers.
Can the IR1150STR be used in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM)?
No. The IR1150STR is specifically designed for continuous conduction mode (CCM) boost PFC operation. Its control architecture, current sensing, and valley-detection circuitry assume CCM waveforms and will not function correctly in DCM or critical conduction mode (CrCM) configurations.
