Abstract

This application note discusses the TEA1613T application functions.

The TEA1613T provides the drive function for the two discrete power 
MOSFETs in a resonant half-bridge configuration.

The TEA1613T integrates a controller for a half-bridge resonant converter 
(HBC).

The controller for a zero-voltage switching LLC resonant converter 
includes a high-voltage level-shift circuit and several protection features 
like over-current protection, open-loop protection, capacitive mode 
protection and a general purpose latched protection input.

In addition to the normal frequency controlled operation mode, it also 
supports burst mode operation.

The proprietary high voltage BCD Powerlogic process makes an efficient, 
direct start-up possible from the rectified universal mains voltage. A 
second low voltage SOI IC is used for accurate, high speed protection 
functions and control. 

The integrated functionality makes the TEA1613T very suitable for power 
supplies in LCD-TV, plasma televisions, PC power supplies, high-power 
office equipment and adapters.

A similar product is the TEA1713, which also contains an integrated PFC 
controller.
