OVER VOLTAGEPROTECTION OVP
The output voltage is expected to be kept by the
operation of the PFC circuit close to its nominal
value. This is set by the ratio of the two external
resistors R
1
and R
2
(see fig. 2), taking into con-
sideration that the non inverting input of the error
amplifier is biased inside the L6561 at 2.5V.
In steady state conditions,the current through R1
and R2 is:
I
R1sc
=
V
out

R1
=
I
R2
=
2.5V
R2
and, if the external compensation network is
made only with a capacitor C
comp
, the current
throughC
comp
equalszero.
When the output voltage increases abruptly the
current throughR1 becomes:
I
R1
=
V
outsc

OUT

R1

Since the current through R2 does not change,
I
R1
must flow through the capacitor C
comp
and
enter the error amplifier.
Thiscurrentis monitoredinside theL6561andwhen
reaches about37
μ
A the outputvoltage of themulti-
plier is forcedto decrease,thusreducing theenergy
drawn from the mains. If the current exceeds 40
μ
A,
theOVP protectionis triggered(Dynamic OVP),and
the external power transistor is switched off untilthe
currentfallsapproximatelybelow10
μ
A.
However, if the overvoltage persists, an internal
comparator(Static OVP) confirms the OVP condi-
tion keeping the external power switch turned off
(see fig.1).
Finally, the overvoltage that triggers
functionis:
Vout = R
1
40
μ
A.
Typical values for R
1
, R
2
and C are shown in the
applicationcircuits. Theovervoltagecan be set inde-
pendentlyfrom the averageoutputvoltage.The pre-
cision in setting the overvoltage threshold is 7% of
the OVP
