onsemi NCP1680/1 Totem Pole PFC Controller

NCP1680 with Critical Conduction Mode (CrM)
NCP1681 with Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) / Multimode(CrM-CCM)

onsemi’s NCP1680 is a CrM PFC controller IC designed to drive the bridgeless totem-pole PFC topology. The bridgeless totem-pole PFC is a power factor correction architecture that consists of a fast switching leg driven at the PWM switching frequency and a second leg that operates at the AC line frequency. This topology eliminates the diode bridge present at the input of a conventional PFC circuit, allowing significant improvement in the power stage efficiency.

The NCP1681 can be configured to operate in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) or Multi-Mode (CrM-CCM) operation.
