Product details
Overview
UCC28514DWR from Texas Instruments is a dual-stage combination controller integrating average-current-mode PFC and peak-current-mode PWM in a single SOIC-20 package. It delivers 2-A source / 3-A sink gate drive for both stages, supports 1:2 PFC:PWM frequency ratio (e.g., 100 kHz PFC / 200 kHz PWM), features programmable maximum duty cycle clamp (70–80%), and enables leading-edge PFC + trailing-edge PWM modulation to minimize boost capacitor ripple current in AC/DC front-end power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the UCC28514DWR datasheet, UCC28514DWR pinout, UCC28514DWR application, or UCC28514DWR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1:2 frequency option, dual UVLO thresholds (16 V turn-on / 5.3 V PWM turn-off), zero-power detect, input voltage feedforward implementation, and transconductance voltage amplifier with 70–130 µS gM for fast load transient response in regulated offline power systems.
Technical Context
The UCC28514DWR implements a three-input analog multiplier with highly linearized gain (k = 0.8–1.2 V⁻¹) referenced to IAC and VFF inputs, enabling near-unity power factor across universal AC input (85–265 VAC). Its PFC stage uses a transconductance voltage amplifier (VAOUT) with slew-rate enhancement (up to 3.3 mA) and zero-power detection (<0.33 V threshold) to disable GT1 during no-load conditions.
The PWM stage operates at twice the PFC frequency (e.g., 200 kHz nominal), employs peak-current-mode control with internal ramp injection via CT_BUFF, and includes programmable soft-start (SS2 charge current −7 to −14 µA), accurate D_MAX clamp (70–80% max duty), and 1.5-V level-shifted ISENSE2 input for noise immunity-ensuring stable operation in flyback and two-transistor forward topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| PFC:PWM Frequency Ratio | 1:2 - PWM stage runs at double PFC frequency (e.g., 200 kHz PWM / 100 kHz PFC), reducing boost capacitor RMS current and enabling smaller output capacitance. |
| Gate Drive Capability | GT1/GT2: 2-A source / 3-A sink - drives MOSFET gates directly without external buffers in ≤300 W PFC+PWM designs. |
| VCC UVLO Turn-On / Turn-Off | 16 V / 9.7 V - ensures reliable startup above brownout and graceful shutdown during line dropout. |
| PWM UVLO2 Threshold | 6.3 V turn-on / 5.3 V turn-off - independent secondary-side enable/disable logic prevents premature PWM activation before PFC output stabilizes. |
| Transconductance (gM) | 70–130 µS - defines VAOUT output current vs. VSENSE–VREF error voltage slope, enabling precise PFC output voltage regulation (±1%) over temperature. |
| Zero-Power Detect Threshold | 0.20–0.50 V on VAOUT - disables PFC gate drive when output load drops below ~5% of rated power, improving light-load efficiency. |
| Maximum Duty Cycle Clamp | 70–80% at D_MAX = 4.15 V - prevents transformer saturation in flyback and forward converters by limiting PWM on-time. |
Pinout & Package
UCC28514DWR is housed in a 20-pin SOIC (DW) package with exposed thermal pad (standard DW footprint, 0.65 mm pitch). Pin functions are fully defined per TI SLUS517C Rev. C, with dedicated analog (GND) and power (PWRGND) grounds, dual gate drivers (GT1/GT2), and separated PFC/PWM signal paths to minimize crosstalk.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GT1 (12) | PFC Stage Gate Driver Output | 2-A source / 3-A sink totem-pole driver for boost switch; disabled until VCC exits UVLO and VREF is valid. |
| GT2 (10) | PWM Stage Gate Driver Output | Identical drive strength to GT1; enabled only after PFC output reaches 90% of target, ensuring stable bus voltage. |
| VSENSE (3) | PFC Voltage Feedback Input | Inverting input to transconductance amplifier; connects to resistor divider from PFC output; ±120 mV hysteresis enables fast recovery from overvoltage events. |
| ISENSE1 (16) | PFC Current Sense Input (+) | Non-inverting input to PFC current amplifier; senses current through low-side shunt; matched impedance to MOUT required for loop stability. |
| ISENSE2 (8) | PWM Current Sense Input | Peak-current-mode comparator input with 1.5-V internal level shift; accepts voltage from primary-side sense resistor; threshold = 1.30 V typical. |
| CAOUT (15) | PFC Current Amplifier Output | Wide-bandwidth op-amp output driving PFC PWM comparator; connects to MOUT for current-loop compensation. |
| VFF (19) | PFC Voltage Feedforward Input | Sources IAC/2 current; external RC filter generates feedforward voltage (1.4 V at low line, 4.7 V at high line) to maintain constant power across AC input range. |
| D_MAX (4) | PWM Max Duty Control Input | Analog input setting 70–80% clamped duty cycle; 0.7 V disables PWM; 4.15 V sets max duty; linear relationship enables precision tuning. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated PFC + PWM Control | Single-chip solution eliminates timing skew between stages, guarantees synchronized LEM/TEM operation, and reduces BOM count vs. discrete controllers. |
| Leading-Edge PFC + Trailing-Edge PWM | Minimizes RMS ripple current in boost capacitor by >30% vs. TEM/TEM schemes-enabling smaller, lower-cost 450 V electrolytics. |
| Programmable Soft-Start (SS2) | External capacitor sets PWM ramp time; −10.5 µA charge current provides controlled 0→100% duty transition, preventing inrush into downstream converter. |
| Input Voltage Feedforward (VFF) | Compensates for line-voltage variation in real time, maintaining constant power delivery and <5% THD across 85–265 VAC input range. |
| Zero Power Detect | Disables GT1 when VAOUT falls below 0.33 V, eliminating standby losses in no-load condition while retaining fast wake-up capability. |
| Accurate Power Limiting | Uses IMOUT × VFF product (−343 to −462 µW) to enforce consistent max power regardless of line voltage-critical for IEC 61000-3-2 compliance. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PFC+PWM controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| UCC28514N | Same die, PDIP-20 package; higher thermal resistance (1 W vs. 0.7 W SOIC); no exposed thermal pad. | Preferred for prototyping or low-volume through-hole assembly; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts or >70°C ambient. | Select UCC28514N only when manual soldering or socket-based validation is required; UCC28514DWR is optimal for production SMT. |

FAQ
What is the PFC:PWM frequency ratio supported by the UCC28514DWR?
The UCC28514DWR supports a fixed 1:2 PFC:PWM frequency ratio-meaning the PWM stage operates at twice the frequency of the PFC stage (e.g., 200 kHz PWM with 100 kHz PFC). This ratio is hard-coded in the silicon and cannot be changed externally. It is confirmed in the "AVAILABLE OPTIONS" table of SLUS517C, which lists UCC28514DWR under the "1:2" row alongside UVLO and hysteresis values specific to this variant.
How does the UCC28514DWR implement zero-power detection?
The UCC28514DWR implements zero-power detection by monitoring the VAOUT pin: when VAOUT falls below 0.20–0.50 V (typical 0.33 V), the internal zero-power comparator disables GT1 gate drive. This occurs when PFC output load drops near zero, allowing the device to enter ultra-low-power state while retaining fast wake-up capability-verified in the "Zero Power" section of SLUS517C Electrical Characteristics.
Can the UCC28514DWR be used with discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) PFC?
No-the UCC28514DWR is explicitly designed for average-current-mode control in continuous conduction mode (CCM) PFC operation, as stated in the "PFC Features" list and "DESCRIPTION" section of SLUS517C. Its multiplier architecture, current amplifier, and VAOUT slew-rate enhancement assume CCM behavior; DCM operation is unsupported and not characterized.
What is the purpose of the CT_BUFF pin on the UCC28514DWR?
The CT_BUFF pin on the UCC28514DWR provides an internally buffered version of the PWM oscillator ramp (4 V amplitude, 200 kHz typical), intended for direct connection to ISENSE2 via a single resistor to implement slope compensation in peak-current-mode PWM control. This function is documented in the "TERMINAL FUNCTIONS" and "DETAILED PIN DESCRIPTIONS" sections of SLUS517C.
Does the UCC28514DWR require external components for PFC voltage loop compensation?
Yes-the UCC28514DWR requires external RC networks between VAOUT and GND (for voltage loop) and between CAOUT and MOUT (for current loop) to stabilize both control loops. The "DETAILED PIN DESCRIPTIONS" section specifies that "Connect the voltage compensation components between VAOUT and GND" and "Connect impedance between the MOUT pin and the CAOUT pin to compensate the PFC current control loop"-no internal compensation is provided.
