Product details
Overview
STEVAL-DPSTPFC1 from STMicroelectronics is a 3.6 kW bridgeless totem-pole boost reference design for digital power factor correction (PFC) with integrated inrush current limiter (ICL). It implements a high-efficiency AC-DC front-end using SiC MOSFET SCTW35N65G2V, automotive-grade SCR TN3050H-12WY, isolated gate driver STGAP2S, and STM32F334 MCU - achieving 97.5% peak efficiency and 3.7% THD at 230 VRMS/50 Hz.
For engineers reviewing the STEVAL-DPSTPFC1 datasheet, STEVAL-DPSTPFC1 application notes, STEVAL-DPSTPFC1 schematic diagrams, or STEVAL-DPSTPFC1 bill of materials, this reference design delivers verified performance data for EV on-board chargers, telecom/server SMPS, and industrial UPS systems requiring compact, EMI-compliant PFC stages operating up to 4 kV surge immunity.
Technical Context
The design employs a bridgeless totem-pole topology where the TN3050H-12WY SCR acts as an AC line polarity switcher enabling active inrush current limitation during startup and line-drop recovery. This eliminates mechanical pre-charge relays and avoids EMI bouncing effects while maintaining optimal PFC efficiency across input ranges (85–264 VRMS).
Control is executed by the STM32F334R8T6 MCU featuring HRTIM timers, analog comparators, and op-amps optimized for real-time digital PFC algorithms. The system operates at 72 kHz switching frequency, uses VIPER26LD for auxiliary 12 W high-voltage DC/DC conversion, and integrates galvanically isolated drivers and current/voltage sensing for robust closed-loop regulation.

FAQ
What firmware is included with STEVAL-DPSTPFC1?
The board ships with production-ready PFC/ICL control firmware for the STM32F334 MCU, implementing digital average-current-mode control, soft-start sequencing, overvoltage/overcurrent protection, and THD-optimized modulation. Source code and configuration tools are provided via ST's eDesignSuite and STM32Cube ecosystem.
Does STEVAL-DPSTPFC1 support both 110 V and 230 V AC inputs?
Yes - it operates across 85–264 VRMS input range with automatic adaptation. At 110 VRMS/60 Hz, it delivers 1.6 kW input power and 94.8% peak efficiency; at 230 VRMS/50 Hz, it achieves full 3.6 kW capability and 97.5% efficiency, validated per DB3916 Rev 2 test conditions.
How is inrush current limited without NTC thermistors or relays?
The TN3050H-12WY SCR functions as an active AC line polarity switcher, triggered only after zero-crossing detection and voltage ramp confirmation. This enables precise turn-on timing that limits peak inrush to <16 A RMS while avoiding thermal derating and lifetime degradation associated with passive NTCs or electromechanical relays.
Can the control board be used independently of the power board?
Yes - the control board (featuring STM32F334R8T6, isolated communication interfaces, and debug headers) is electrically and mechanically decoupled. It connects to the power board via a standardized 32-pin digital power connector and can interface with custom power stages using the documented pinout and firmware API.
