2kW PFC design from two 1000W PFC modules using UCC28070

Hi,

I would like to create a power supply for an audio power amplifier developing a 1000W PFC module using the UCC28070 controller, PFC module based on the application diagram in figure 24 of the UCC28070 datasheet.

The input to the PFC module is a 48V AC signal coming from the secondary winding of a power transformer (the primary winding being connected to the mains).

The output of the PFC module will be 90V DC, capable of supplying 1000W to the load.

The UCC28070 controller will be synced externally from an FPGA.

The load is highly variable.

The PFC module will become the fundamental building block for all sorts of applications. The intention is to build power supplies of 2000W, 3000W or more using a number of PFC modules where the outputs of the modules would be connected together (outputs in parallel).

The input of each module would be connected to separate secondary windings of separate power transformers. The primary winding of each transformer could come from the same mains line or from multiple out of phase mains lines.

My questions are:

1) Can we connect the outputs of multiple PFC modules such as the ones described above?

2) Will the power delivered to the load be shared equally between the modules?

3) Each PFC module will have its own bridge rectifier and the UCC28070 controller will monitor its input voltage individually (VINAC pin through a resistor divider). On the PFC module output side, should each PFC module have its own resistor divider monitored by the VSENSE pin or should each PFC module share a common resistor divider (every VSENSE connected together to the middle point of a single resistor divider)? To me, each module having its own resistor divider is great as far reducing the VSENSE track length and improving noise immunity on the high impedance VSENSE line are concerned, but tolerances on the resistance value of the resistor divider could lead to different regulated output voltages. 1% tolerance on the resistor divider could lead to 900mV difference between each module's output (based on 90V DC output).

4) On the other side, a single resistor divider shared by all VSENSE pins of all the modules will cause the VSENSE high impedance line to have a significant length, everything but ideal in a high impedance line situation. Can this line be buffered by an opamp or would the opamp propagation delay upset the UCC28070 internal voltage regulator process, potentially leading to oscillation?

I look forward to your reply.
