The L6506/D is a linear integrated circuit designed to sense and control the current in stepping motors and similar devices. When used in conjunction with the L293, L298, L7150, L6114/L6115, the chip set forms a constant current drive for an inductive load and performs all the interface function from the control logic thru the power stage. Two or more devices may be synchronized using the sync pin. In this mode of operation the oscillator in the master chip sets the operating frequency in all chips.

The L6562AT is a current-mode PFC controller operating in transition mode (TM). Coming with the same pin-out as its predecessors L6561 and L6562, it offers improved performance. The highly linear multiplier includes a special circuit, able to reduce AC input current distortion, that allows wide-range-mains operation with an extremely low THD, even over a large load range. The output voltage is controlled by means of a voltage-mode error amplifier and an accurate (1% @TJ = 25 °C) internal voltage reference. The device features extremely low consumption (60 μA max. before start-up and < 5.5 mA operating) and includes a disable function suitable for IC remote ON/OFF, which makes it easier to comply with energy saving requirements (Blue Angel, EnergyStar, Energy2000, etc.). An effective two-step OVP enables to safely handle over-voltages either occurring at start-up or resulting from load disconnection. The totem-pole output stage, capable of 600 mA source and 800 mA sink current, is suitable to drive high current MOSFETs or IGBTs. This, combined with the other features and the possibility to operate with the proprietary fixed-off-time control, makes the device an excellent low-cost solution for EN61000-3-2 compliant SMPS in excess of 350 W.

The device is a current-mode PFC controller operating in Transition Mode (TM). Based on the core of a standard TM PFC controller, it offers improved performance and additional functions. The highly linear multiplier, along with a special correction circuit that reduces crossover distortion of the mains current, allows wide-range-mains operation with an extremely low THD even over a large load range. The output voltage is controlled by means of a voltage-mode error amplifier and a precise (1.5% @TJ= 25°C) internal voltage reference. The stability of the loop and the transient response to sudden mains voltage changes are improved by the voltage feedforward function (1/V2correction). Additionally, the IC provides the option for tracking boost operation (where the output voltage is changed tracking the mains voltage). The device features extremely low consumption (≤ 90 µA before start-up and ≤ 5 mA running). In addition to an effective two-step OVP that handles normal operation overvoltages, the IC provides also a protection against feedback loop failures or erroneous output voltage setting. In the L6563 a protection is added to stop the PFC stage in case the boost inductor saturates. This function is not included in the L6563A. This is the only difference between the two part numbers. An interface with the PWM controller of the DC-DC converter supplied by the PFC preregulator is provided: the purpose is to stop the operation of the converter in case of anomalous conditions for the PFC stage (feedback loop failure, boost inductor's core saturation) in the L6563 only and to disable the PFC stage in case of light load for the DC-DC converter, so as to make it easier to comply with energy saving norms (Blue Angel, EnergyStar, Energy2000, etc.). The device includes disable functions suitable for remote ON/OFF control both in systems where the PFC pre-regulator works as a master and in those where it works as a slave. The totem-pole output stage, capable of 600 mA source and 800 mA sink current, is suitable to drive high current MOSFETs or IGBTs.

The highly linear multiplier, along with a special correction circuit that reduces crossover distortion of the mains current, allows wide-range-mains operation with an extremely low THD even over a large load range. The output voltage is controlled by means of a voltage-mode error amplifier and an accurate(1% @ TJ = 25 °C) internal voltage reference. Loop’s stability is optimized by the voltage feedforward function (1/V2 correction), which in this IC uses a proprietary technique that considerably improves line transient response as well in case of mains both drops and surges ("bidirectional"). Additionally, the IC provides the option for tracking boost operation, i.e. the output voltage is changed tracking the mains voltage. The device includes disable functions suitable for remote ON/OFF control both in systems where the PFC pre-regulator works as a master and in those where it works as a slave. In addition to an overvoltage protection able to keep the output voltage under control during transient conditions, the IC is provided also with a protection against feedback loop failures or erroneous settings. Other on-board protection functions allow that brownout conditions and boost inductor saturation can be safely handled. An interface with the PWM controller of the DC-DC converter supplied by the PFC pre-regulator is provided: the purpose is to stop the operation of the converter in case of anomalous conditions for the PFC stage (feedback loop failure, boost inductor’s core saturation, etc.) and to disable the PFC stage in case of light load for the DC-DC converter, so as to make it easier to comply with energy saving norms (Blue Angel, EnergyStar, Energy2000, etc.). The totem-pole output stage, capable of 600 mA source and 800 mA sink current, is suitable for big MOSFET or IGBT drive. This, combined with the other features and the possibility to operate with ST’s proprietary Fixed-Off-Time control, makes the device an excellent solution for SMPS up to 400 W that need to be compliant with EN61000-3-2 and JEITA-MITI standards.
