3. The output of the voltage error amplifier, V
The output of the gain modulator is a current signal, in
the form of a full wave rectified sinusoid at twice the line
frequency. This current is applied to the virtual ground
(negative) input of the current error amplifier. In this way,
the gain modulator forms the reference for the current
error loop and ultimately controls the instantaneous cur-
rent draw of the PFC from the power line. The general
form of the output of the gain modulator is:
More precisely, the output current of the gain modulator
is given by:
where K is in units of V
Note that the output current of the gain modulator is lim-
ited around 228.57µA and the maximum output voltage
of the gain modulator is limited to 228.57µA x 3.5K =
0.8V.
This 0.8V also determines the maximum input power.

1.3 Current Error Amplifier, IEAO
The current error amplifier’s output controls the PFC duty
cycle to keep the average current through the boost
inductor a linear function of the line voltage. At the invert-
ing input to the current error amplifier, the output current
of the gain modulator is summed with a current, which
results from a negative voltage being impressed upon

The inverting input of the current error amplifier is a vir-
tual ground. Given this fact, and the arrangement of the
duty cycle modulator polarities internal to the PFC, an
increase in positive current from the gain modulator
causes the output stage to increase its duty cycle until

output decreases, the output duty cycle decreases to

1.5 PFC OVP
In the FAN4800, the PFC OVP comparator serves to pro-
tect the power circuit from being subjected to excessive
voltages if the load changes suddenly. A resistor divider
