Description

This reference design is a digitally controlled, compact 1.6-kW AC/DC power supply design for server power supply unit (PSU) and telecom rectifier applications. The highly-efficient design supports two main power stages, including a front-end continuous conduction mode (CCM) totem-pole bridgeless power factor correction (PFC) stage. The PFC stage features TI’s LMG341x GaN FET with integrated driver to provide enhanced efficiency across a wide load range. The design also supports a half-bridge LLC isolated DC/DC stage using LMG342x GaN FET to achieve a +12-V DC output at 1.6 kW. Two control cards use C2000™ Piccolo™ microcontrollers to control both power stages
