1 General description

The TEA2017AAT is a digital configurable LLC and PFC combo controller for highefficiency

resonant power supplies. It includes the LLC controller and PFC controller

functionality. The PFC can be configured to operate in DCM/QR, CCM fixed frequency,

or multimode which supports all operation modes to optimize the PFC efficiency. The

TEA2017AAT enables building a complete resonant power supply which is easy to

design and has a very low component count. The TEA2017AAT comes in a low profile

and narrow body-width SO16 package.

The TEA2017AAT digital architecture is based on a high-speed configurable hardware

state machine ensuring very reliable real-time performance. During the power supply

development, many operation and protection settings of the LLC and PFC controller

can be adjusted by loading new settings into the device to meet specific application

requirements. The configurations can be fully secured to prevent unauthorized copying of

the proprietary TEA2017AAT configuration content.

In contrast to traditional resonant topologies, the TEA2017AAT shows a very high

efficiency at low loads due to the LLC low-power mode. This mode operates in the power

region between continuous switching (also called high-power mode) and burst mode.

Because the TEA2017AAT regulates the LLC output voltage of the system via the

primary capacitor voltage, it has accurate information about the power delivered to the

output. This measured output power defines the mode of operation (burst mode, lowpower

mode, or high-power mode). The transition levels of the operating modes can be

easily programmed into the device.

The TEA2017AAT contains all protections like overtemperature protection (OTP),

overcurrent protection (OCP), overvoltage protection (OVP), overpower protection (OPP),

open-loop protection (OLP), and capacitive mode regulation (CMR). Each of these

protections can be configured independently and accurately by programming parameters

inside the device.

The device contains both a low-voltage and high-voltage silicon technology for highvoltage

start-up, integrated drivers, level shifter, protections, and circuitry assuring zerovoltage

switching.

The TEA2017AAT/TEA2095T combination gives an easy to design, highly efficient,

and reliable power supply, providing 90 W to 1000 W, with a minimum of external

components. The system provides a very low no-load input power (< 75 mW; total

system including the TEA2017AAT/TEA2095T combination) and high efficiency from

minimum to maximum load. This power supply meets the efficiency regulations of Energy

Star, the Department of Energy, the Eco-design directive of the European Union, the

European Code of Conduct, and other guidelines. So, any auxiliary low-power supply can

be omitted. To enhance readability, only typical values are given in this document, except in the

parametric tables (Section 9, Section 10, and Section 11). If values in the text differ from

the values for the same parameter in the parametric tables, the values in these tables are

leading.

2 Features and benefits

2.1 Distinctive features

• Complete functionality of a PFC and LLC controller in a single small-size SO16

package

• Integrated high-voltage start-up

• Integrated drivers and high-voltage level shifter (LS)

• High-side driver directly supplied from the low-side driver output

• Accurate boost voltage regulation

• PFC can be configured to operate in:

– DCM/QR

– DCM/QR/CCM (also called multimode operation)

– CCM fixed frequency

• Integrated X-capacitor discharge without additional external components

• Power good function
