TPS40210 - boost controller with 240V output

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS40210, UCC28180, UCC28051
Hi all,
 
Our customer is looking for boost controller that meets the following specifications.
◇Vin=168V to 198V
◇Vout=240V
◇Iout=1.1A
◇Vdd=15V (Customer had  15V power source for driving the controller IC.)
 
I think TPS40210 can be one of candidate.
I looked from Power Lab design using TPS40210, but I did not.
 
Please tell me if there is a controller that meets the requirements of customer.
I'm happy if there is a reference design, etc.
 
Best Regards,
Yusuke / Japan Disty
 
 
 

 

  • Hi Yusuke,

    The TPS40210 may work and the following reference design needs similar currents and voltages as what they need. However a higher voltage MOSFET would be needed to support the 240 V output.

    For the bigger MOSFET you may want to look into one of the UCC PFC boost controllers like the UCC28051 or UCC28180. They generally have a stronger low-side gate driver for switching a bigger MOSFET. I do not work with these but you could try posting in the AC/DC forum to get some help on them.

    Best Regards,
