Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UCC28070
Hi there, my name is Kian Fotouhi. I'm an electrical engineering student working on a high-power audio amplifier that will need a transition-mode boost PFC. The specifications will be:
-AC input: 85V to 265V for universal compatibility (the device will primarily be connected to 120V nominal North American grids)
-Power output: 1200W (this will not be a constant output given that the amplifier will present a dynamic load to the power supply)
-Voltage output: 390V nominal
For context, my goals are high switching frequencies and small component size. I'll be using GaN FETs for switching.
I've utilized the UCC28065 datasheet and Excel design tool to determine component values, but I'm unsure of what frequency to select for f_min. I want to capitalize on the benefits of high switching frequencies but I'm unaware of the consequences of allowing the IC to clamp the switching frequency to its upper limit of 800 kHz.
Thanks and kind regards,
Kian Fotouhi
