Product details
Overview
UCC2819D from Texas Instruments is a BiCMOS active power factor correction (PFC) controller for boost preregulators, implementing average current mode control to achieve near-unity power factor across worldwide AC line voltages (85–265 VAC). It operates from 10.8 V to 17 V VCC, features programmable output voltage via the VAI pin, and delivers 93–100% maximum duty cycle with leading-edge modulation for reduced bulk capacitor ripple. Used in industrial and telecom AC/DC front-end supplies.
For engineers reviewing the UCC2819D datasheet, UCC2819D pinout, UCC2819D application, or UCC2819D equivalent, key selection considerations include its −40°C to 85°C temperature rating, 7.5 V internal reference accuracy (±0.131 V), 150 µA typical start-up current, OVP/EN window comparator, and tracking boost topology support via VAI/VFF interface.
Technical Context
The UCC2819D employs an analog multiplier with feed-forward (VFF) and current-sense (IAC, CAI/MOUT) inputs to shape input current waveform proportionally to line voltage. Its voltage amplifier (VAOUT/VAI/VSENSE) regulates boost output with programmable setpoint, while the current amplifier (CAOUT/CAI/MOUT) drives PWM via a high-bandwidth error path.
It integrates UVLO with 10.2 V turn-on / 9.7 V turn-off thresholds, overvoltage protection referenced to VREF + 0.5 V (hysteresis 300–600 mV), and zero-power detection on VAOUT (0.20–0.50 V threshold). Oscillator frequency is set by RT/CT (typ. 100 kHz, ±15% total variation), and DRVOUT provides totem-pole gate drive with 5–12 Ω pullup and 2–10 Ω pulldown resistance.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
UCC2819D is housed in a 16-pin SOIC (D) package with standard 1.27 mm pitch, RoHS-compliant NiPdAu lead finish, and JEDEC Level-1 moisture sensitivity rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pin 1) | Power and signal reference ground | Common return for all analog and power circuits; requires low-inductance 0.1 µF ceramic bypass |
| PKLMT (Pin 2) | Peak current limit threshold input | Zero-volt-referenced comparator input; level-shifted via resistor divider from current-sense resistor |
| CAOUT (Pin 3) | Current amplifier output | High-bandwidth op-amp output driving PWM latch; connects to MOUT for compensation network |
| CAI (Pin 4) | Current amplifier non-inverting input | Connects to GND side of current-sense resistor; functional down to below GND for bidirectional sensing |
| MOUT (Pin 5) | Multiplier output & current amp inverting input | High-impedance node combining analog multiplier current and CAI feedback; enables leading-edge modulation |
| IAC (Pin 6) | Line voltage proportional current input | Accepts 150–500 µA current proportional to instantaneous AC line voltage; sets multiplier gain |
| VAOUT (Pin 7) | Voltage amplifier output | Internally clamped to ~5.5 V; drives multiplier and zero-power comparator; used for tracking boost control |
| VFF (Pin 8) | Feed-forward RMS voltage output | Generated by mirroring IAC through external RC filter; scales VAOUT setpoint for line-voltage tracking |
| DRVOUT (Pin 9) | Gate driver output | Totem-pole MOSFET driver; requires series gate resistor (≥8 Ω at 16 V VCC) to suppress overshoot |
| VCC (Pin 10) | Positive supply input | Must be ≥20 mA capable; bypassed directly to GND; inhibits DRVOUT until UVLO threshold is exceeded |
| CT (Pin 11) | Oscillator timing capacitor connection | Connects to GND via capacitor; sets fSW = 0.6/(RTCT); short trace required for stability |
| VAI (Pin 12) | Voltage amplifier non-inverting input | Externally accessible for dynamic output voltage programming (e.g., tied to VFF for tracking boost) |
| RT (Pin 13) | Oscillator charging current input | Connects to GND via 10–100 kΩ resistor; sets oscillator current and thus switching frequency |
| VSENSE (Pin 14) | Voltage amplifier inverting input | Connected to output voltage divider; forms feedback loop with VAOUT and VAI for output regulation |
| OVP/EN (Pin 15) | Overvoltage/enable window comparator | Disables DRVOUT if boost voltage exceeds VREF+0.5 V; also disables entire controller if pulled <1.9 V |
| VREF (Pin 16) | 7.5 V precision reference output | Supplies 20 mA max; disabled below UVLO; bypassed with ≥0.1 µF ceramic capacitor to GND |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PFC controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| UCC2818D | Lacks VAI pin; no programmable output voltage; SS pin present instead | Fixed-output boost only; cannot implement tracking boost or dynamic voltage scaling | Select when fixed 385 V output is sufficient and cost optimization is prioritized over flexibility |
| L6562ATDTR | Operates up to 250 kHz; uses transconductance amplifier; no integrated VREF or VFF generator | Requires external reference and feed-forward circuitry; higher component count for same functionality | Select when higher switching frequency is needed for smaller magnetics and layout space is constrained |
Compared with UCC2819D, UCC2818D offers lower BOM cost but forfeits output voltage programmability, while L6562ATDTR provides higher frequency headroom but demands additional external components for reference and feed-forward generation-making UCC2819D optimal for robust, feature-complete, single-chip tracking PFC designs.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the UCC2819D?
The UCC2819D is rated for −40°C to +85°C ambient operating temperature, matching its industrial-grade qualification and distinguishing it from the commercial-grade UCC3819D (0°C to 70°C). This extended range ensures reliable operation in demanding environments such as base station power supplies and factory automation equipment where thermal margins are critical. The UCC2819D maintains full specification compliance-including 7.5 V reference accuracy and 100 kHz oscillator stability-across this full range.
How does the VAI pin enable tracking boost functionality in the UCC2819D?
The VAI pin on the UCC2819D is the non-inverting input of the internal voltage error amplifier, externally accessible to allow dynamic setting of the boost output voltage. When tied to the VFF pin-which outputs a DC voltage proportional to RMS line voltage-the UCC2819D automatically scales its regulated output (e.g., from 380 V at 230 VAC to 320 V at 115 VAC). This reduces inductor size, MOSFET conduction losses, and bulk capacitor stress. The UCC2819D's VAI architecture eliminates need for external DACs or microcontrollers in tracking implementations.
What is the purpose of the OVP/EN pin on the UCC2819D?
The OVP/EN pin on the UCC2819D serves a dual function: it acts as a window comparator for overvoltage protection (trip point = VREF + 0.50 V ±20 mV) and as an enable/disable input (disable threshold <1.9 V). When boost output exceeds the programmed OVP threshold, DRVOUT is immediately disabled to protect downstream circuitry. If the pin is pulled below 1.9 V-such as during fault or standby-it resets the internal logic and halts all switching. This dual-role pin simplifies protection circuitry and improves system-level safety in the UCC2819D.
Can the UCC2819D be used in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) PFC applications?
The UCC2819D is explicitly designed for continuous conduction mode (CCM) average current mode control in boost PFC topologies and does not support DCM operation. Its current amplifier architecture, multiplier transfer function, and PWM latch timing assume CCM waveforms. Attempting DCM use results in unstable current regulation and distorted line current. For DCM PFC, TI recommends alternatives like the UCC28019 or L6562 series. The UCC2819D's datasheet specifies CCM-only operation and provides design equations and compensation guidance exclusively for CCM boost converters.
What are the absolute maximum ratings for the DRVOUT pin of the UCC2819D?
The DRVOUT pin of the UCC2819D has an absolute maximum rating of 1.2 A peak source/sink current and a continuous rating of 0.2 A. Exceeding these values risks permanent damage to the internal totem-pole driver. Additionally, the pin must not be driven below −0.5 V relative to GND. Designers must select an external gate resistor that limits peak current within these bounds while controlling rise/fall times (25–50 ns typical) and suppressing overshoot-TI recommends ≥8 Ω for 16 V VCC per Figure 7 in the UCC2819D datasheet SLUS482B.
