AN10789: GreenChip III TEA1751 Integrated PFC and Flyback Controller

Technical guide for the TEA1751 GreenChip III controller, featuring integrated PFC and flyback functions for high-efficiency switched-mode power supplies (SMPS).

View application note

Overview

This application note provides detailed design and functionality information for the NXP TEA1751, a highly integrated PFC and flyback controller combination IC. Fabricated using a Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) process, the device is designed for cost-effective, efficient power supplies. Both the PFC and flyback controllers operate in Quasi-Resonant (QR) or Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM) with valley detection. The document describes pin functions, control loops, protection features—including brownout, overvoltage, and overcurrent protection—and start-up sequences. It also outlines the differences between the TEA1751T (safe restart) and TEA1751LT (latched protection) versions.

Use Cases

  • Notebook computer adapters
  • PC power supplies
  • Consumer electronics power adapters
